''This article is about the Royal Librarian. For the literal cow, see RoyalCow.''

'''Imicow''' is the head librarian of the RoyalLibrary, where they reside in a small apartment on the upper floor known as the Librarian's Quarters.

Imicow is a graduate of DameAdorabellesAcademy, where they studied general magic before majoring in Lactomancy at TheUniversityOfCentralia. During their time at Dame Adorabelle's, Imicow served as the rhythm guitarist and producer for [[PrincessAliceAndTheTroublemakers|Princess Alice's pop rock band]].

Imicow was later appointed by PrincessAlice as the head librarian of The Royal Commission for the Secure Reposition of the Collated Material Produce of the Intellectual, Fictitious and Personal Poetic and Prose-Oriented Labours and Associated Artefacts and Ephemera of the Centralian Body Politic and of the Greater Realms Collected Thereby<<FootNote(Thank you to Sredni Vashtar for thinking up a suitably long and ostentatious official name.)>>...more commonly known as the Royal Library. Imicow accepted the appointment only on the condition that the Royal Library, which had historically been accessible only to royalty and high-ranking nobility, be opened to the general public as a circulating library. Princess Alice agreed to these terms, and Imicow holds the position of Royal Librarian to this day. Princess Alice often visits Imicow at the library, sometimes spending the night on the couch (nicknamed "The Imicowch") in the Librarian's Quarters.

Although the Royal Library is Crown property, a strange quirk of a very old Centralia law grants the Royal Librarian sovereignty over the library and its grounds. As a result, even Princess Alice, the reigning monarch, is subordinate to Imicow's authority while on Library property. In practice, Imicow largely uses this power to limit the items the Princess may bring into the building--for example, the Princess must surrender all chocolate and candy to the library's security staff upon entry<<FootNote([[https://heapershangout.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/1074421/#Comment_1074421|11 January 2021]] ~-(login required)-~)>>, a policy implemented following an incident in which the Princess, with her hands sticky from candy, got several pages stuck together in a 13th century grimoire.<<FootNote([[https://heapershangout.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/1074423/#Comment_1074423|11 January 2021]] ~-(login required)-~)>> Similarly, Imicow enforces a blanket ban on weapons within the library, though they allowed Princess Alice to carry a baseball bat into the library after she promised she would only use it on TERFs or white supremacists.<<FootNote([[https://heapershangout.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/1075021/#Comment_1075021|24 January 2021]] ~-(login required)-~)>> Magical girls who fight scary monsters are permitted to carry weapons in the library,<<FootNote([[https://heapershangout.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/1075022/#Comment_1075022|24 January 2021]] ~-(login required)-~)>> though ordinary police officers are not.
