## Description

Arthur is a human wizard with very dark skin and a long white beard that goes past his waist. He wears a purple corduroy suit and a monocle, and he carries an umbrella. He wears a watch fob on a chain.

He is very chaotic in everything he does but does appear to be very wise and knowing, as he has lived for hundreds of years. He has written a memoir titled, *Abracadabra, Look at Me Now: My Life in Magic*, which is kept in the restricted section of the library due to its "spicy" contents. He's very skilled in chronomancy and often experiments with the limits of his magic, usually at the cost of his own well-being. Despite his erratic nature, he's very protective of his students and has an automatic warning spell set up to assist anyone who may invoke his name. When his students ask for it, he's more than happy to help, going so far as to attempt to start a war in order to break them out of elf jail.

## Background

> "*You see Arthur Aguefort. A long, white wizard's beard, purple suit, holding his walking stick. An elderly Black man with a twinkle in his eye and a look of ultimate mischief and wonder at a world where anything is possible.*"
> ― Brennan Lee Mulligan

When he was young, Arthur Aguefort was the secretary on the very first Council of Chosen and the paramour of the elven oracle Eleminthindriel. When Kalvaxus was defeated, Aguefort was selected to bind him and prevent him from rising to power again. In the hopes that he would learn the error of his ways, he was transformed into a dragonborn and placed to serve as Vice Principal of the Aguefort Adventuring Academy, so that Aguefort could watch over him, and so that he could help teach the future generations of heroes.

Over 300 years prior to the start of Fantasy High, Aguefort slept with a phoenix and conceived a daughter, Ayda Aguefort. Over the following years, Ayda would be reborn like her phoenix mother, each time forgetting her past lives but learning through notes she left behind. One such life decided to cut herself off from her past. She destroyed all her notes and told Aguefort not to contact her again, a request that he respected for hundreds of years. He's forgotten a lot of birthdays.

He Made Friends with Tectonya Karkovnya, But was Bummed because He Felt she Was Cooler than Him.

At Some Point Between the Start of Fantasy High and The Affair Between Sandra Lynn and Gorthalax, He Trapped Gorthalax in a Gem Under the Mythril Factory.

## Freshman Year

### The Beginning Begins

Arthur Aguefort is first introduced at an assembly on the first day of school. He gives a long speech (see Quotes below) welcoming the new freshman school then disappears into light. At the end of the day, he announces The Day of Fellowship; students get the rest of the afternoon to find their first adventuring parties. He explains that this is a critical process in which they will be working together for the rest of their time at the Academy. Vice Principal Goldenhoard interrupts to say that those who have detention are an exception and are expected to show up to detention.

### Clash of the Corn Cuties

During the battle against Doreen and the Corn Ooze & Corn Cuties, Gorgug Thistlespring dies permanently after failing his death saving throws. Riz Gukgak sprints out of the cafeteria in search of a cleric who can *Revivify* him, and notices Aguefort in his office. He explains the situation, and they rush back to the cafeteria. When they return, he casts a spell that allows Kristen Applebees advantage on her last saving throw. Unfortunately, she still fails, and she dies.

Aguefort gives a solemn speech on death (ignoring Riz's insistence that he do something) and pulls the last phoenix egg out of his coat, a swirling ball of fire surrounded by red feathers. As he pulls out a gun and shoots Mr. Gibbons in the head, then himself, Gorgug and Kristen are brought back to life, and the Bad Kids are all healed back up to full health.

### After the Afterlife

When Kristen arrives in Heaven, Aguefort is there behind her, as reassurance. He climbs into her backpack and asks her to just walk right through, insisting that things will work themselves out. As Kristen walks through the gates and is greeted by Helio with a hug, Aguefort slips out of her backpack. He shushes her with a wink and sprints into Heaven as fast as he can.

The party also discovers that Aguefort was being poisoned by Johnny Spells through his tea.

### Cool Kids, Cold Case

The Bad Kids find out that Aguefort was the paramour to the past Elven Oracle.

### Family in Flames

The Bad Kids discover Aguefort was the one who bound Kalvaxus to become Goldenhoard.

### Prompocalypse Part 2

During Prompocalypse, when Kristen Applebees goes to heaven, the angels tell her that Sol wants to talk to her and politely tell her to treat him nicely and with respect as he is their creator. When Kristen goes into the room, she finds Aguefort with his pants down. We find out that Arthur has knocked out Sol for a long time, running heaven behind the scenes, and has been shitting in the corner for weeks. Arthur explains that it was too hot in the room as Sol is the sun so he took off his pants. Arthur then directs Kristen Applebees to another room, grey and sticking out of the golden office like a sore thumb, where she creates her god. Kristen then sneaks Arthur out of heaven in her own backpack, but not before Arthur shoots one of the angels and tells her to make a run for it.

Kristen and Arthur have a quick discussion, asking her what was the greatest magic of all, to which she replies is friendship. Arthur gets angry and rants that "friendship is not magic," saying "if a mother and her child gets iced in an alleyway, was the problem them not loving each other enough?" and that "Friendship is Friendship. Magic is Magic." Kristen makes a couple more guesses but he says that "The greatest magic of all, is Chronomancy," which is what he said on the first day and his watch on Kristen's dog tags is the key. They both appear alive in the gym and Arthur announces to everyone that he is alive. Mr. Gibbons appears and possesses Aguefort making him occupied for the rest of the fight. After the fight, Aguefort promotes Gilear to vice principal without knowing who he is, he freezes Angela Worrel in a block of ice and brainwashes the rest of the police force to ignore the illegal stuff everyone at this school has been doing and he also reveals that he has a phoenix whom he has sex with and that's how he got the phoenix egg in Episode 2. Afterwards, he reveals how he basically manipulated the wording of the prophecy in order to get what he wanted. He then continues to be the school's principal for the rest of the year. At the end of the year he approaches The Bad Kids and asks them to help him get the Nightmare King's crown back after it was stolen from his office.

## Fantasy High LIVE in Brooklyn

Aguefort steps out from behind a curtain onstage in the theater building, where he had been sleeping. The noise of the hammering soothes him and helps him go into deep REM sleep. When Adaine tells him that they're thinking of joining the theater department, he makes fun of it, saying that, even though some of the most accomplished illusionists were theater major, "everyone involved was wasting their time", as the only worthwhile school of magic is (say it with me) *Chronomancy*. He inquires as to whom his students intend to murder that day, and then disappears back into the curtains, but not before flaming Gorgug for trying to tell him how to run his school.

He reappears after the battle with Occularia, Queen of Sight and congratulates the Bad Kids on another murder well done commenting "it can barely be a first day at the Aguefort Adventuring Academy without some kind of murder happening".

## Sophomore Year

### Sophomores Start

Aguefort poofs into existence in front of The Bad Kids and showers them with Gold, announcing that 20,000 Gold Pieces from Kalvaxus's KVX Bank Horde have been transferred to them, but also warns them of the curses associated with coins from a Dragon's Horde. He reverses time to catch a quip from Adaine, then informs the party that the Crown of the Nightmare King that was being kept in his office has gone missing, and that retrieving the crown will equate to 60% of their grade this semester. He also fires Gilear from the role of Vice Principal so that he may accompany the Bad kids as a Hireling.

## Quotes

> "*Welcome, one and all, to another exciting year here at the Aguefort Adventuring Academy, where we train the next generation of adventurers. But what is an adventurer? One who goes on adventures? I say an adventurer is a hero. And what is a hero? A hero is someone with the strength of a heart, courage of spirit, and the might of will to go to strange lands and enact violence on things there. We go to places where there are things that must be destroyed, and we destroy them. Wandering from town to town getting into trouble, meeting in flophouses and taverns. Getting into scrapes with the law and otherwise finding ourselves engaged in all manner of tom-foolery and shenanigans. Sometimes violent, sometimes fatal, yes fatal. A hero is a violent wanderer who enacts their will, bloodily, and with strange magics, upon the world. BUT! Does a hero truly stand alone? \*mirthful chuckle\* No, the strength of the hero is the strength of the party. And what is a party? A gathering of friends, perhaps with some alcoholic beverages and some fun music, \*HAH\* \*heh\* a jape for all of you. A party is a group that comes together to embellish each others strengths and eradicate each others weaknesses. A party is composed of those who have sworn themselves to each other, to make themselves greater than the sum of their parts. Perhaps we have flaws within us. Perhaps we don’t cast magic, and we need someone who can cast magic to help us when we need magic. Perhaps we’re very tough, and we can sustain a lot of injuries, but we need somebody who is very good at hurting people there with us as well. Perhaps we need a sneaky person to sneak. Not always, sometimes we don’t need that. But occasionally, in circumstances where you do need one, you really need one, with traps and other things like that. And that is the meaning of party. And party is the meaning of hero. And never forget all of you \*slurps\* Ugh, that’s bad. Never forget that the greatest magic of all, is Chronomancy. The magic of time. Welcome to your first year, freshmen, at the Aguefort Adventuring Academy.*"
