			<br> ''This old, brown bear male, dances and performs tricks for the visitor's children. He possesses an uncanny knack for knowing what tricks the children want. While he is a brown bear, his fur is mostly gray and no one knows how old he is, except perhaps for Bogdan the Russian. Both Arkadi and Bogdan were ''recruited'' into the pageant by Vulo Vodach when the pageant last came to Veliky Novgorod in the lands of the Rus.'' -- {} -- See: '''Bogdan'''

In the darkest hours of the night, it can sometimes be heard to speak with sibilant hissings in alien dead tongues. All those save its blind handlers must take care to avoid its hypnotic gaze and more than one pageant member has perished, swallowed whole by the dark serpent. Phython has been an exhibit of the pageant for as long as anyone can remember.'' -- {}
