What is the Monumental's solution to the current scourge of demons? Open the way for any hapless adventurer out of their depth (like a certain Player Character) and trap their souls to the Nexus for all of eternity, or at least until the scourge has ended, giving them no real choice to turn back. Not only that, but they have permanently enslaved the Maiden in Black to uphold the Nexus, the only hint that [[AmbiguouslyEvil she has it coming]] is from the Monumental itself, so...

[[quoteright:202:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/The_Monumental_4897.jpg]]
--> '''Voiced by:''' Aditi Tanna
The Monumental is the last surviving harbinger of its kind. They are a vessel-race endowed only with prophetic knowledge and lacking all consequence of emotion or personal thought. It seeks to aid the adventurer into lulling the Old One back to sleep.
* AmbiguousGender: In both looks and voice.
* BigGood: Keeps the universe in balance and is the one who leads the Player Character to the Nexus.
* ButThouMust: When the Monumental tells you its plan to defeat the Old One, you get to decline to helping it. It then points out that your only other option is staying in the Nexus for all eternity, slowly withering away.
* CompleteImmortality: The Monumental is the only NPC that reacts to being attacked without taking damage, and it chides you for wasting your energy. [[spoiler:If you choose to lull the Old One back to sleep, it dies off-screen and you become a Monumental in its place.]]
* CosmicKeystone: The Monumental is responsible for maintaining the existence of the universe.
* NotSoStoic: Despite Monumentals being stated to lack emotion, it's not above laughing at you should you refuse to help mend the world.
* TheStoic: The Monumentals are described as lacking emotion.
* Really700YearsOld: The Monumental is extremely old, having spent centuries maintaining its duty.
