The crafty politician
The wise old grandfather of the Kasekela clan, Gremlin's older brother Goblin is the eldest male in the community and would have story or two to tell, if he could speak.

At 15 he became Gombe's youngest known Alpha male, dominating others through fear and shock tactics - such as waking early and knocking other chimps out of their night nests.
