Personally, I think The Honorable and Reverend Breather of Fire's suggestion in the CB (that the Monastery needs a Grue to keep NodeReaper company) has special relevance here.

from Wikipedia:

A grue is a fictional predator from the Zork series of interactive fiction games by Infocom. The word grue was first used in modern times as a fictional predator from Jack Vance's Dying Earth universe. Vance probably took the name from an archaic/dialectal English verb derived from a Scandinavian word meaning to feel horror, shudder (OED), now most commonly encountered in the word "gruesome".
Dave Lebling introduced a similar monster, whose name was borrowed from Vance's grues, into the interactive fiction computer game Zork. Zork's grues fear light and are ravenous devourers of adventurers, making it impossible to explore the game's dark areas without a light source.

The Monastery's Grue might, IMHO, be a somewhat gentler monster, charged with leading initiates and other newcomers to the light in the likes of How do I post a question effectively?, Markup in the Monastery and company, specifically including those cited by jdporter, above.

Update: Punctuation changed for clarity.
