One of Babar's three (triplet) children. He lives in the palace in Celesteville with his brother and sister. He's the most adventurous of the three: he once fell out of his pram in to a tree and had to be rescued by some squirrels; another time he floated away in Cornelius' bowler hat and was nearly eaten by a crocodile.

Personally, yes, it's interesting to see that my mood slightly depends on the phase of the Moon - then again, whose doesn't? - but all I need them for for most part are their high practical value when playing Nethack!

POM /P-O-M/ n.

Common abbreviation for phase of the moon. Usage: usually in the phrase `POM-dependent', which means flaky.
