Sunduk Sundukovich
Sunduk Sundukovich is a talking chest who lives in a shaft below the Subterranean Book. He likes people to be polite and to introduce themselves by their full name with patronymic. He himself can recite his lineage at least seven generations. He also claims to be a great sage who has contemplated the nature of the cosmos and the multiplicity of worlds for eight fourteen million zillion years. In addition, he knows a person called Treasure Finder who wears a horned tiara (most likely, the Chud' posing as a missing child in Yarozersk).
At last check, he offered to accompany the Yokels if they fetch him a shard of the The Alatyr Stone.

All right, until I've read it, I didn't know I wanted to see a rendering of Terry Pratchett's Luggage rendered in a Russian skazki setting. And the name made me laugh like crazy ;)
I wasn't thinking explicitly of that, but it was sort of in the back of my mind, along with some vaguely-formed Douglas Adams reference. ;)
Love your setting, mate) Wish I had the time to read more through it)
Thanks! Appreciate the love!
