The world of Monkey Island is the fictional world and characters depicted in the Monkey Island series of adventure games. The games are set on various fictional islands in the Caribbean Sea during the Golden Age of Piracy.
The games have a wide cast of characters and locations, many of which reappear throughout the series. Each entry in the series revolves around three main characters: Guybrush Threepwood (the protagonist); Elaine Marley (the primary foil); and LeChuck (the primary antagonist).
Geography
Monkey Island
Monkey Island is the island from which the series takes its name. It is not part of the Tri-Island area, and there is originally a need for a spell in order to reach the area. The south end of the island is mainly covered by jungle, at the west end there is a volcano, at the east end lies the famous Giant Monkey Head and located at the north end of the island is the cannibal village. Dinky Island is a small tropical island inhabited by Herman Toothrot in Monkey Island 2 , and believed to be the hiding-place of the legendary treasure of Big Whoop. The Curse of Monkey Island establishes 'Big Whoop' as the name of the Carnival of the Damned on Monkey Island, placing Dinky Island as a small atoll off the coast of Monkey Island, connected to the later by a series of tunnels. However, Escape from Monkey Island also depicts Dinky Island as a small island off the north-west coast of Lucre Island.
Tri-Island Area
The Tri-Island Area consists of "Mêlée", "Booty", and "Plunder Island", all of which are all ruled by Governor Elaine Marley in place of her long lost grandfather, Horatio Torquemada Marley. The remaining islands are considered part of the greater Tri-Island Area, but are not governed by Elaine (i.e. "Phatt Island" has its own governor, "Scabb Island" lacks a form of government, etc.). "Spittle" and "Pinchpenny Island" are the only known islands within the Tri-Island Area not to be visited in-game.
- Blood Island is a former recreational island featuring the Goodsoup Family Resort , known as the "finest hotel in the Caribbean." Blood Island also has a lighthouse, which plays a part in the tragic tale of the Lost Welshman, a grave-yard featuring the Goodsoup family crypt, and Mount Acidophilus, an active volcano. The island is now very desolate due to the Cannibals of Monkey Island constantly trying to appease the Sherman the Volcano God, which causes the resort to lose business due their famous barbecue built over a continuous stream of lava being unavailable. Skull Island is a small island off the coast of Blood Island. It is home to the infamous smuggler known as King Andre. It is only reachable via a small dinghy operated by the ghostly "Flying Welshman". It is one of the smallest islands, and even though numerous characters believe it to be shaped like a skull, it actually resembles a duck.
- Booty Island celebrates Mardi Gras all-year-round. The governor's mansion is located on a secluded island on the Northwest part of Booty. There are a number of businesses on the island: Stan's Previously Owned Coffins , an Antique store, and a costume shop. Local activities include a pirate "spitting contest" and attending the governor's Mardi Gras ball. There is also a strange treehouse located at the Eastern end of the island, while the southern end is lined with steep cliffs.
- Jambalaya Island is supposedly the location of the pieces of a powerful Voodoo talisman called The Ultimate Insult, though pirates inhabiting the island have been driven off by tourists. Jambalaya's town holds: Planet Threepwood , a restaurant that tributes Guybrush, though they never recognize him; Starbuccaneer's; a micro-groggery which also has a mechanical manatee ride; and the largest artificial plank-dive in the world. Knuttin Atoll is a small atoll off the coast of Jambalaya Island. It is a dark and decaying place where pirates are afraid to amass in groups of three or more for fear that Admiral Ricardo, the paranoid overseer of Knuttin, might suspect a conspiracy and fire a cannonball at them. Knuttin also houses a school founded by Ozzie Mandrill to train pirates into productive members of society.
- Lucre Island is home to the Second Bank of Lucre and smaller businesses such as a Bait Shoppe, a Cane Shop, and a Prosthesis shop. Ozzie Mandrill owns a mansion on the island, and it is also home to the villain Pegnose Pete.
- Mêlée Island is the capital island of the Tri-Island Area and the home of Elaine Marley. Mêlée is largely covered by a thick forest of pine trees and it is sparsely populated. Apart from Mêlée Town, the island features a used ship lot run by Stan, a small traveling circus, a swordfighting school run by Captain Smirk, and the Swordmaster's house. Mêlée town itself is home to the SCUMM Bar, which is later replaced by the tourist-friendly place Lua Bar. The town also houses a general store, a church, a jail, a voodoo shop run by the Voodoo Lady, and the governor's mansion. Hook Island is a tiny island just off the northeastern shore of Mêlée, on which Meathook has a house.
- Phatt Island is run as a fascist dictatorship by Governor L. Phatt, a morbidly obese man, who lives in a mansion on the south side of the island. The island's law enforcement consists of a single large, muscular guard armed with a sword, a pistol, and a large helmet which obscures his eyes, and his dog Walt, the jail-keeper. Phatt Island has the Tri-Island Area's only library, which is located in Phatt City, a coastal town on the northern part of the island. There is a waterfall containing a secret passage to a smaller island to the west of Phatt, where the drunkard Rum Rogers Jr lives in a cottage.
- Pinchpenny Island is located roughly halfway between Lucre Island and Phatt Island.
- Plunder Island is one of the primary islands of the Tri-Island Area, under the rule of governor Elaine Marley. It has a seaside fortress in the island's port, Puerto Pollo , on the south-eastern side of the island. The town's barbershop, Barbery Coast has its own barbershop trio currently consisting of Haggis McMutton, Cutthroat Bill, and Edward Van Helgen. The town also has a Shakespearian theatre, the shady young businessman Kenny Falmouth, and Blondebeard's Chicken Shoppe . The islands also houses Voodoo 'n' Things , the Voodoo Lady's latest establishment, the Brimstone Beach Club and Smorgy , a members beach reserved for retired, rich pirates, a large field where the caber toss is held, and Danjer Cove, a small bay where some local pirates have dropped anchor.
- Scabb Island is inhabited by an anarchistic yet peaceful community of pirates. It was first settled as a quarantine island for skin diseases. It later became a haven for pirates because of its distinctive lack of authority figures. The island is terrorized by Largo LaGrande, who bullies the other pirates for their money and prevents any ships from leaving the island. Scabb is always covered in darkness. The capital town of Scabb is Woodtick, located on the island's north coast. Much of Woodtick is formed from ships which have been wrecked on the rocks. The island also holds "Steamin' Weeinie", a hot dog shack owned by Rapp Scallion, the "International House of Mojo", run by the Voodoo Lady, a graveyard, and the houseboat Captain Dread.
- Spittle Island is located slightly to the south-east of Jambalaya Island.
Gulf of Melange
The Gulf of Melange is the primary island archipelago found in Tales of Monkey Island . It is the first group of islands—besides Monkey Island and Dinky Island—outside the Tri-Island Area to be featured in-game.
- Boulder Beach is an island that features only a small rocky beach area.
- Brillig Island features only a small beach area, with some coconuts.
- Flotsam Island is named after the island's unique winds, which cause various sailors and debris to become marooned there. Flotsam features a small local town in its southwest portion, and the rest of the island is covered in a jungle that contains ancient ruins dedicated to the wind gods. Besides the strong winds preventing anyone from leaving the island, the waters surrounding the island are filled with razor-sharp coral that tear nearby ships. By Tales of Monkey Island the voodoo lady has relocated her shack to Flotsam.
- The Isle of Ewe features only a small beach area.
- The Jerkbait Islands contain: Roe Island ; Spinner Cay ; and Spoon Isle . Spinner Cay is the epicenter of the Vaycalian race of mer-folk within the Gulf of Melange. The Vaycalians are the original inhabitants of Flotsam when a small se
