| “ | Clearly the Bowgart kid is outsized by its instrument. Until it can grow full horns, it'll have to make do with hand-me-downs. It's a good thing that a Bowgart grows two horns; a younger's first attempt at making an instrument is not always successful. | ” |

| “ | Age and experience turn Bowgarts into skilled luthiers. They always have a collection of spare instruments around. It is generally considered wise to leave one's extra instrument unstrung though, as curious novices tend to produce a sound that can only be described as ghastly. | ” |

| “ | This Bowgart returned from the Prism Gate forever changed! The Monster's limbs, previously specialized to suck mud up through its feet and multitask in the playing of its instrument, have been modified (and multiplied!) at the molecular level to instead produce webbing and serve as organic bows and strings - extraordinary! | ” |

Description[]
Bowgart is a Triple-Elemental Monster that is first available at level 7. It is best obtained by breeding Oaktopus and Mammott. Its breeding and incubation time is 12 hours long. It can be teleported to Space Island once fed to level 10 or Cave Island at level 20.
Song[]
Instrument: Cello
Like in the original game, Bowgart's contribution to an Island's song is the equivalent of upper and lower string sections. Its top two arms are responsible for the bowing and fingering of the upper string part, and its bottom two arms, the lower part.
On the Continent, Bowgart starts off by playing a cello harmony. Later in the song, Bowgart plays double stops in sets of crotchets.
On Space Island, Bowgart will play fast quavers of high notes that accompany Toe Jammer, Sooza, and Rootitoot’s melody.
On Cave Island, Bowgart makes a series of high triplets. When the slower part comes in, it will play slower but lower set of triplets that accompany Fwog's main part.
VSTs[]
- Main article: VSTs
Virtual Studio Technology (VST) is a plugin format that allows audio software to integrate with digital audio workstations (DAWs). VST plugins come in two main forms: instruments (VSTi), which generate sounds, such as synthesizers and sample libraries, and effects, which process audio, through tools like reverb or distortion. Individual sounds within these plugins may be referred to as patches, presets, samples, or articulations, depending on the plugin. The Monster-Handlers utilize several VST plugins to create the sounds of instrumental and sometimes vocal Monsters. Note that many pages incorrectly label patches as "SoundFonts", an unrelated audio format.

Notes[]
- Bowgart's name may be a combination of the Monster Boggart (or "bogart") and a bow, the stick used on string instruments, such as the one it plays.
- All of the notes that Bowgart ever plays are playable by an actual cello, though it requires special skill to get to the very high notes.
- Supposedly before version 2.7.0, adult Bowgart's idle animation used to be somewhat broken, as while doing its idle, it seems to jump at the end of the animation to loop back. Furnoss also shared this glitch.
- There was a bug where Yellow Prismatic Bowgart did not do its playing animation for its first track on Cave Island and just did its idle animation instead. This was later fixed in version 2.7.0.
- There was also another bug where all of the Prismatic Bowgarts' eyelids (except for Yellow) were grey when playing their first track on Cave Island. This was also fixed in version 2.7.0.
