To You and Your Kin

**Dhampinella** is Joseph's Dhampir apprentice. Her tense relationship with her vampire father and absent human mother have led her to seek out alternate family. She is very close to Joseph, and looks to Archie the Vampire reverend as a surrogate father figure. Over the course of the series, she also grows closer to her half-sister Melinoe Demetrius.

## Traits

Dhampinella is a tall, strong Dhampir with auburn hair and gold-flecked green eyes. She is very stoic and has an ethereal aura. Like her mentor, Joseph, she wears a lot of black - her trademark outfit is a long black coat with many pockets.

## Chronology

Dhampinella first appears in Book 1, where she is introduced to Charlotte at St Merlin's University. She is the apprentice of Joseph Carrion and the two are researchers in the field of Zontanecrology at the university.

Bookwyrm (Dragon Species)

A **Bookwyrm** is a rare urban dragon that hordes magical books. They read the magical books by wrapping their long bodies around the books and feeling how the the ink makes words on the page.

## Characteristics

Bookwyrms are a type of Wyrm dragon. Like all Wyrms, they are wingless, slithering variants of European Dragons, with fangs and venom instead of flame. They are quite small, but they have big teeth and two forked tongues, and their venom can cause vivid hallucinations. They have dark purple papery scales, yellow eyes and a feathery crest around their heads. Bookwyrms are very intelligent, drawn to the knowledge and art within magical books rather than the more standard material treasures horded by other breeds of European Dragon. The are highly sensitive and can feel vibrations in the floor and detect the contours of ink on pages.

Book 1: The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

**The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre** is the first book of the Mediochre Q. Seth series. It was first published in 2012 by William Fraser Publishing.

## The Blurb

Charlotte Johnson has never been optimistic enough to believe that there could be far more to the world she lives in than meets the eye. But when the enigmatic dracologist Doctor Mediochre Quirinius Seth unintentionally explodes into her life, she finds that, whether she believes it or not, dragons and magic are real and dangerous.

Unwilling to let such a revelation go, Charlotte soon forces herself into the middle of a battle of other people's wits where nothing is as simple as meets the eye - neither her newfound enemies, nor her newfound allies, and certainly not Mediochre Q Seth himself...

## Plot Synopsis

Charlotte Johnson has just moved to Edinburgh from Florida, and she's not happy about it.
Psychomancy

**Psychomancy**is the Mantically Aware name for the mantic manipulation of the mind. It allows the mancer to read minds and communicate telepathically.

## Uses of Psychomancy

### Known Psychomancers

* Barbarossa Kennedy McCullock
* Mabel Hart
* Obsidian (Catriona Haulier)
* Patrick
* The Pied Piper
* At least one of the door guards at the Stygian Secure Unit.
* An unnamed MIPF officer saves Melinda and Rowan using psychomancy in book 1. This may or may not be the same MIPF officer who is shown to use psychomancy on Mediochre, after several MIPF officers are dispatched to his house by Maccabeus Fervour in book 3.
* It is known that there was a psychomancer who works for the security team at St Merlin's University, but she had left by the time of the first book.
* Psychomancy is mentioned as being used in the fight between the Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate and the MIPF in book 1, but no individual psychomancers are identified.

Brace Jackson

> *"if you’re anything like me at your age, getting talked into a night out by less studious friends and waking up shirtless the next day with more pain in my head than memories, on the couch of Brace Jackson. That was an awkward New Year’s Day. Even more so when Brace’s boyfriend turned up... followed by her other two boyfriends."*
>
>

> -- Joseph Carrion, describing what people Charlotte's age do at Christmas in his experience. (Book 4, *Sent Into Mediochre-Drive*)
>
>

**Brace Jackson** was a friend of Joseph's at university.

## Traits

When Brace and Joseph were Charlotte's age, she was one of his "less studious friends" who talked him into attending wild parties. On at least one occasion she let him sleep on her couch, although this made things awkward when her boyfriends discovered him.

It is unknown whether Brace was openly polyamorous, or whether her three boyfriends were unaware of each other at the time.

Brace is implied to have matured somewhat since then, as Joseph mentions that she would kill him if he let Charlotte follow their youthful example.

## Chronology

### Sent Into Mediochre-Drive

According to an anecdote Joseph relates to Charlotte about his experiences of being her age, there was at least one festive season when she and some of their other non-studious friends convinced Joseph to attend a night out which resulted in him awakening badly hungover and shirtless on Brace Jackson's couch the following day. Things became awkward when three different boyfriends of Brace showed up in rapid succession and discovered him.

Joseph subsequently advises Charlotte not to imitate him in this regard, since her parents would likely murder him for it and - he notes as an afterthought - so would Brace.
Beowulf

> *"Living with Maelstrom was something that would drive most humans to the brink of insanity, and probably also had a similar effect on other mammals."*
>
>

> -- Beowulf would be a much nicer pup if he didn't have to deal with his abusive owner (Book 1, *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre*).
>
>

**Beowulf** is Maelstrom's ferocious pet hound. He appears in *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre*.

## Traits

Beowulf is a wolf-like hunting hound, and is violent and aggressive towards everyone apart from his owner, Maelstrom, of whom he is visibly afraid. Living with Maelstrom is stated to have caused Beowulf to become mentally unhinged.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

Beowulf is with Maelstrom in the Cairngorms when Mediochre and company stumble upon them in the forest. He is clearly being mistreated by his owner. When Beowulf detects the presence of Joseph and attempts to go after him, Joseph hides in a tree and Maelstorm strikes the dog, possibly without even bothering to look at what Beowulf trying to show him.

Maelstrom then takes Beowulf into Deep Ocean's cave in order to sniff her out, but since the entire cave smells of dragon, Beowulf struggles to be of much use. He does pick up the scent Charlotte nearby and attempts to alert Maelstrom, for which he is kicked and sent the other way, to scout out the part of the cave that Maelstrom isn't directly searching himself. While searching the cave on his own, he comes across Joseph again and recognises him as the human he earlier chased up a tree, and attacks him. Finding himself unable to bite through Joseph's protective coat, Beowulf switches tactics and goes for the face. Joseph pistol-whips him in the head to knock him away, and Dhampinella steps between them, causing Beowulf, who finds her creepy, to shrink back and eventually lose his footing on the rocky slope outside the entrance to the cave. He tumbles down, lands in front of the advancing Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate that are arrayed outside, and attacks them on general principles. He is eventually shot dead by Mr Antler.

## Trivia

* Beowulf's name comes from the barbarian protagonist of the Old English epic poem *Beowulf*. It is a fitting parallel to his owner, Maelstrom, who shares some resemblance to Robert E. Howard's *Conan the Barbarian*.

## Fan Theories

* Given Beowulf is described as wolf-like and a hunting hound, he might be some kind of wolfhound, perhaps and Irish Wolfhound since the books are set in Scotland.
Real World People Mentioned in the Mediochre Q. Seth Series

This page documents the real world people mentioned in the Mediochre Q. Seth series. There is also a list of real world works and a list of real world places.

## Creatives

### **Composers**

#### Leonard Cohen

* Sam Cohen named himself after the singer when his mother requested he pick something "ethnically believable".

### **Game Designers**

#### Shigeru Miyamoto

* Sam Cohen mentions that he wanted his chosen name to be Samuel Miyamoto, but his mother requested that he pick something more "ethnically believable".
Jonah Charlson

**Jonah Charlson** is one half of the duo of criminal mercenaries known as the Bomb Brothers, who illegally create and plant technomantic incendiary devices for paying clients.

## Traits

It is presumed that one of the Bomb Brothers is a technomancer and the other is a pyromancer, thus allowing them to create their bombs between the two of them without any outside assistance, but this is not explicitly stated.

It is most likely that Jonah is the technomancer, since he is the one that confirms when the bomb is operational.

Outside of creating and planting explosives, despite their criminal lifestyle, neither of them are comfortable with violence.

They're also not actually brothers.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

The Bomb Brothers are hired by the Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate to destroy a railway station in order to prevent Mediochre from reaching the Cairngorms by train. Unbeknownst to them, Mediochre anticipates this and sends Forthan Forth to prevent them from setting their bomb off, which he seemingly achieves by threatening them with a katana.

It is unknown what became of them after this, although it can be presumed that Forthan probably had them arrested.
Pyromancy

**Psychomancy**is the Mantically Aware name for the mantic manipulation of fire.

## Uses of Pyromancy

### Known Pyromancers

* Carmen Watford
* Deep Ocean
* Glint
* Isobel Linda Williams
* Leeroy
* Sapphire (Dean Kiwi Mashuga)
* Pyromancy is mentioned as being used in the fight between the Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate and the MIPF in book 1, but no individual pyromancers are identified.
Spectre

A**Spectre** is a type of undead creature that is mentioned in the Mediochre Q. Seth series. In *Black, White and Shades of Mediochre*, Joseph mentions that even Spectres become visible if you force trillions of them into a small space and therefore it doesn't make sense that Dhampinella can detect seventeen trillion undead lifeforms in a single flat. The actual reason for the detection is the presence of undead bacteria.
The Pied Piper

> *"The Pied Piper," read Tanner from the notes on the IMP. "Yes, that one. No, I'm not joking. The records describe him as a powerful psychomancer and audiomancer originally charged with the psychological violation of multiple underage civilians. His motives and thought-processes, they say, are so far from those of an ordinary man as to be completely unfathomable. The only psychomancer to peek into his brain in the past century never spoke again."*
>

> -- Alexander Tanner, giving a rundown of the most dangerous escapees from the Stygian Secure Unit (Book 3, *Caught Mediochre-Handed*)

Tamara Calvin

**Tamara Calvin** was a younger colleague and sometimes lover of Isaiah Templeton.

## Traits

Tamara was a gifted enough tempomancer to be involved in the Templeton Project. She is likely to be the only person ever to convince Isaiah Templeton to share his backdoor access to the Templeton Institute systems.

## Chronology

Like most participants of the Templeton Project, it is likely that Isaiah Templeton hand-picked Tamara Calvin to work for him at the Institute. At some point, they began an on-off love affair, and it can be presumed that Tamara became pregnant from this and hid the pregnancy from most of the world, eventually secretly birthing a son.

After recovering from the pregnancy, she returned to work on the Templeton Project, and died along with the rest of the project's members in 1992 when they accidentally opened a time portal into the vacuum of space.
Samantha Travis

## Featured In

### Books

Black, White and Shades of Mediochre (mentioned)Caught Mediochre-Handed (mentioned)

Sent Into Mediochre-Drive (mentioned)

**Samantha Travis** was a child who went to high school with Queen MAB and Mediochre.

## Traits

It is strongly implied that Samantha Travis had an abusive relationship of some sort with Queen MAB, who was at the time the younger and more naive of the two children. In particular, Alexander Tanner describes Travis as having manipulated and betrayed Queen MAB, and Queen MAB herself strongly implies that Travis physically harmed her in her own home at some point.

Following Mediochre's intervention, it is implied that Travis developed multiple anxiety issues, likely as a result of him having threatened her in some way.

## Chronology

### Black, White and Shades of Mediochre

Samantha Travis is first mentioned when Mediochre is trying to convince Queen MAB to give him free reign on his investigation, and he cashes in the one remaining favour he owes her - namely "that bit in high school with Samantha Travis".

It is established that whatever the favour was, Mediochre promised he would never bring it up unless he believed he would be saving innocent lives by doing so. Bringing it up here is what convinces Queen MAB to trust him.

### Caught Mediochre-Handed

Queen MAB tells Mediochre that arranging for him to adopt Aoife is a bigger favour than anything he's ever done for her, including Samantha Travis (implying that whatever he did involving Samantha Travis was the biggest favour he has ever done her).

### Sent Into Mediochre-Drive

Alexander Tanner tells Joseph Carrion that Samantha Travis was an older child who manipulated and betrayed Queen MAB when they were in high school.

He refuses to give any specifics of what happened between them, but does explain that Mediochre sought Travis out when he found out what she had done.

Ostensibly, Mediochre did nothing more that speak to her. However, after their conversation, Travis's family unexpectedly left the country and Travis herself was shortly diagnosed with multiple anxiety issues. She died less than three months later, from an overdose of her prescription medication. The death was ruled a suicide, although Tanner suggests it might have been an accident. It is clear, however, that Queen MAB believes Mediochre was somehow responsible, and that it was these events which led her to consider him dangerous and create a plan to neutralise him if he became a threat to her.

Later in the book, Queen MAB also mentions that, prior to her attack by one of the fairies, Samantha Travis was the most recent person ever to lay a finger on her in her own home.
The Mantically Unaware

In the Mediochreverse, the name given to characters who don't know about the existence of magic is the **Mantically Unaware**. The opposite group of people, who *do* know about the existence of magic, are referred to as the Mantically Aware. For obvious reasons, very few Mantically Unaware characters turn up in the series.

**Barbarossa Kennedy McCullock** is the third-most-important person in Scotland's mind-wiping industry and also one of the most inflexible members of the MABGov.

## Traits

Barbarossa does not like breaking rules, but was once convinced to do so, making it very easy for Mediochre to blackmail him into mind-wiping Aoife after her encounter with the Scissorman in Book 3. How could that go wrong?
Agate

Caught Mediochre-Handed

**Agate** is a member of TOWIR who first appears on a boat somewhere off the coast of Spain in *Black, White and Shades of Mediochre*. She appears to be the direct superior of Obsidian (aka Catriona Haulier).

## Traits

Agate comes across as very self-assured and glamorous. In her first appearance she is sunbathing topless on a boat somewhere off the coast of Spain. The fact that the designer sunglasses she also wears would give her an odd tan-line is not addressed. Her accent is described as 'generically European'.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

Agate does not explicitly appear in *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre*, but what is probably her voice (since the accent is definitely European but otherwise unplaceable) appears in the TOWIR scene of the opening sequence.

### Black, White and Shades of Mediochre

Agate makes her first real appearance sunbathing topless on a boat somewhere off the coast of Spain, where she and Obsidian (aka Catriona Haulier) discuss the fates of the TOWIR members who appeared in the previous book. She then appears at the end of the book to debrief Jasper and the tempomancer. Again she is sunbathing, but this time she's in her private villa.

### Caught Mediochre-Handed

Agate appears at the end of *Caught Mediochre-Handed*, getting a massage from a deaf masseur. She eats chocolate-coated strawberries, which she keeps in a hidden drawer of her marble massage table, while debriefing the tempomancer again. She tells him that they are about to enter the final segment of the Tertiary Phase of TOWIR's plan. As the tempomancer leaves, she warns him not to fail and anticipates the next stage of the plan, which is due to happen around Christmas time.
Topaz (the tempomancer)

## The Tempomancer

Caught Mediochre-Handed

**Topaz** (aka the tempomancer) is a member of TOWIR who first appears in the opening sequence of *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre* and turns out to have been behind all of the events of that book. Being a tempomancer means that he can control time.

## Traits

Topaz is a small, brown-haired man, with a chess-master personality and biting wit. He is a tempomancer, which means he can control time.

## Chronology

### Book 1: *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre*

Topaz first makes an appearance in *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre* but is initially only known to the main party as 'the tempomancer.' In the opening sequence, during a clandestine meeting with TOWIR, he volunteers himself as most suitable for a job, which we later find out is the plot behind the events of the book.

### Spin-offs

Born to Raise the Sons of Earth (mentioned)

**Frederick "Rick" Harbinger** is the father of Joseph Carrion.

## Traits

It can be presumed that, like all of Joseph's family, Rick Harbinger is a zontanecrologist. He is known to have earned a great amount of respect from his son: he is noted to have a greater ability to control Joseph than anyone else, and his voice is the voice which Joseph most trusts. He also appears to have been the person who taught Joseph to cook.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

Although not mentioned explicitly in the first book, he may have been present in one of the paintings seen by Charlotte Johnson in Melinda Quinn's gallery. Joseph Carrion is the only person whom Mediochre is mentioned to have been present for the birth of, and one of the paintings appears to show Mediochre in a hospital with a couple and their newborn. If this is indeed Joseph's birth, Rick is presumably the man described as looking proud and gently stroking the baby's face.

### Born to Raise the Sons of Earth

While captive in the basement of Stormhold Elect, Dreadlord Servant of the Thousand Voices, Joseph reflects that he should be home with his family by now, as he promised his father than he would help make the Christmas dinner that year.

### Caught Mediochre-Handed

When ordered to stop squabbling by Elizabeth Vermillion, Joseph finds himself obeying instinctively, and reflects that his father is the only other person who ever had that effect on him.

### Sent Into Mediochre-Drive

While talking with Charlotte, Joseph finally names his father as Frederick Harbinger, and mentions that he usually goes by Rick. He also mentions that Rick was a big fan of Isaiah Templeton, and that he referred to his own garage as the Frederick Harbinger Car Repository. It is also mentioned that Joseph hears Deep Ocean's telepathic speech in the voice of Rick.

**Beth Diamond, MA LLB** is Mediochre's go-to contact whenever he needs either a thermomancer or a lawyer. She made arrangements for restraining orders to be placed on Aoife's parents, so that she could safely attend school.

## Traits

Tall and non-intimidatingly attractive, Beth is described as "the only woman Charlotte had ever met whom she really envied." Beth enjoys making Mediochre feel uncomfortable, but is also one of his most reliable contacts.
Mittens Girl

Mittens Girl/Gallery

**Mittens Girl** (tentatively named) is a recurring character in Kakegurui XX.

## Appearance

She wears the regular school uniform along with a housepet chain. She has black short hair and wears glasses.

## Personality

She is very shy and timid, which makes her an easy victim of bullying. But she is very nice and shows strong gratitude towards Rei Batsubami. She doesn't seem to have a lot of confidence, since she's not even sure if Rei still remembers her the next day. She also seems to be a decent baker, since she made cat cookies for her.

## Profile

### *Kakegurui XX*

She was first seen being harassed by two mean girls. Since she has recently become a housepet they want to force her to gamble with them and purposefully lose so they get her votes. She wants to refuse, but they threaten her, especially since her brother is also a housepet. One of the girls tries to slap her, but Rei Batsubami stops her just in time. She is very grateful and doesn't know what to say. Rei smiles at her and leaves.

    The next day she found Rei talking to Ryota. She told her that Rei was like a prince to her and then offered her a bag of cookies as gratitude. Soon Rei has gotten a reputation of helping many students. This Mittens Girl found another girl, who Rei also helped and together they wanted to give Rei their votes. But she refused to take them, since its against the rules.

    This made them admire her even more. Rei did however, start an authorized bet on whether she would become president and put up a ballot box. Naturally all of the housepets and other students Rei helped, showed up and gladly put their votes into her ballot box, hoping that Rei would become the new president and then get rid of the housepet system.

Book 3: Caught Mediochre-Handed

**Caught Mediochre-Handed** is the third book in the Mediochre Q. Seth series. It was first published in 2014 by William Fraser Publishing.

## Blurb

Things are not looking so good for the nation of Mantically Aware Britain. The politician in charge is corrupt and inept; the outside world is willing to enact some pretty drastic measures to retain some semblance of order; and when a number of exceedingly dangerous criminals get accidentally released, any control anyone might have had on the situation quite rapidly dissolves. In the kind of turn of events the amateur dracologist Charlotte Johnson is pretty much used to by now, it transpires that, once again, the course of events from here on out may rely significantly on Mediochre Q. Seth.

Trouble is, the actions and experiences of Mediochre Q. Seth are starting to look increasingly suspect as the ghosts of his past catch up to him. And Mediochre Q. Seth has an awful lot of past for those ghosts to come from. Telling the good from the bad is becoming more difficult, and Mediochre might not be holding together so well this time.

Charlotte's pretty sure that if Mediochre doesn't hold together the country won't either.
The King's Chair

Cover

**The King's Chair** is the 5th chapter of Kakegurui Yorozu, written and illustrated by Iro Aida.

## Summary

Kaede tells Itsuki that today is a rehearsal for the day of becoming a king. He’ll sit in the student council president's chair today. Kaede wants her to keep watch outside while he’s sitting in the president’s chair. Itsuki believes that the act of sitting in the chairman's chair may have some serious meaning. Itsuki wants to sit on that chair too. She challenges Kaede to a gamble. Only the winner gets the right to sit in that chair. Kaede accepts. He wants to simply decide with a coin toss. If the coin lands on heads, Kaede wins. If it lands on tails, Itsuki wins. They’ll only toss the coin once. It lands on heads, so Kaede wins.

Kaede plans to stop sitting when Sayaka comes. Itsuki will watch over for him. Kaede cheated. Both sides were heads. Kaede proudly walks to the chair. He plans on making Itsuki his secretary. As he sits, a robotic voice from a camera says that there is a fingerprint authentication error, and activates the security system. Kaede falls on a hole in the ground created by the security system. After he fell, Sayaka took a picture of him. Sayaka will always protect what is Kirari’s. Sayaka tells Kirari that she alone has the right to get comfortable in her chair. Meanwhile, Itsuki wonders if Kaede is still around.

## Plot

Kaede tells Itsuki that today is a rehearsal for the day of becoming a king. He’ll sit in the student council president's chair today. Kaede wants her to keep watch outside while he’s sitting in the president’s chair. Itsuki realizes that there are many mysteries in this school. She believes that the act of sitting in the chairman's chair may have some serious meaning. Itsuki tells Kaede that she understands and wants to sit on that chair too.

She asks him who will sit in that chair first. Itsuki challenges Kaede to a gamble. Only the winner gets the right to sit in that chair. Kaede accepts. He wants to simply decide with a coin toss. If the coin lands on heads, Kaede wins. If it lands on tails, Itsuki wins. They’ll only toss the coin once. It lands on heads, so Kaede wins. Kaede plans to stop sitting when Sayaka comes. Itsuki will watch over for him. Kaede cheated. Both sides were heads. Kaede proudly walks to the chair. He plans on making Itsuki his secretary.

As he sits, a robotic voice from a camera says that there is a fingerprint authentication error, and activates the security system. Kaede falls on a hole in the ground created by the security system. Sayaka notices him and takes a picture of him after he fell. Sayaka will always protect what is Kirari’s. The academy, her position of president, even her chair. Sayaka tells Kirari that she alone has the right to get comfortable in her chair. Kirari finds Sayaka interesting. Meanwhile, Itsuki wonders if Kaede is still around.

Caught Mediochre-Handed

Sent Into Mediochre-Drive

**Melinda Quinn** (aka Melz) used to be the apprentice of Mediochre Q. Seth, and they remained friends even after the apprenticeship ended. She was caught in the same accident that gave Mediochre his super-healing abilities, but her fate was considerably less fortunate.
Jacinth (Chen Naiwen)

**Jacinth** (aka **Chen Naiwen**) is a necromancer, a former High Gravepriest of the Forgotten Church and a high-ranking member of The Organisation Which I Represent.

For currently unknown reasons, she is occupying the body of Clement the cat, which she uses for espionage by posing as Queen MAB's pet.
Oscar Charlson

**Oscar Charlson**is one half of the duo of criminal mercenaries known as the Bomb Brothers, who illegally create and plant technomantic incendiary devices for paying clients.

## Traits Edit

It is presumed that one of the Bomb Brothers is a technomancer and the other is a pyromancer, thus allowing them to create their bombs between the two of them without any outside assistance, but this is not explicitly stated.

It is most likely that Oscar is the pyromancer, since he seems to leave Jonah to do the final check of the device.

Outside of creating and planting explosives, despite their criminal lifestyle, neither of them are comfortable with violence.

They're also not actually brothers.

## Chronology Edit

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre Edit

The Bomb Brothers are hired by the Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate to destroy a railway station in order to prevent Mediochre from reaching the Cairngorms by train. Unbeknownst to them, Mediochre anticipates this and sends Forthan Forth to prevent them from setting their bomb off, which he seemingly achieves by threatening them with a katana.

It is unknown what became of them after this, although it can be presumed that Forthan probably had them arrested.
Spinoff 2: Bookwyrm

Charlotte Johnson

Mediochre Q. Seth

**Bookwyrm** is the second non-Christmas-themed spinoff of the Mediochre Q. Seth series. It was published on the author's website: the Court of Ranternal Affairs (here).

## Plot Synopsis

Dracologists Mediochre Q. Seth and Charlotte Johnson have been summoned to deal with a rogue dragon at the National Library of Mantically Aware Britain. Their librarian guide, Alexandria Lecter, leads them through a ransacked room of magical books that are sensitive to noise. Some of the books have been removed from the shelves. Mediochre tells his companions that the creature that they're tracking chooses the books that it steals based on taste, but refuses to reveal what sort of dragon is being tracked.

Charlotte makes a series of deductions and determines that the dragon is a small, wingless urban dragon that probably doesn't breathe fire; and Alexandria is dismayed to learn that the dragon also has venom spit that inflicts vivid hallucinations. Mediochre reminds Charlotte that wingless, slithering European Dragons are called Wyrms, and crows about his teaching abilities when Charlotte figures that the dragon is either eating or hoarding the magic books.

As the trio near the Wyrm's hideout, they notice that the doors have been smashed, opened with teeth, or lockpicked depending on the distance from the lair - indicating that the dragon is intelligent and has been adapting to its environment. The dragon, the group discovers, is hoarding the books because it appreciates the art. It is a Bookwyrm.

Mediochre surmises that the Bookwyrm has lived in the library most of its life, and has spent the time growing and learning. He tells his horrified companions that the Bookwyrm probably knows they're invading its hoard, and it isn't long before he is proved correct and the Bookwyrm appears.

The Bookwyrm refuses the initial request that it leave the premises and return the stolen books, but it can't resist Mediochre's challenge of a story competition. The dragon goes first, and Alexandra volunteers to experience the story, reasoning that the Bookwyrm's pool of stories will be inspired by the library's collection, about which Alexandra is an expert. The Bookwyrm transfers the story by injecting its hallucinatory venom into Alexandra's arm, causing the librarian to pass out. When she comes to, she reveals that, as she expected, she recognises the inspiration for the story comes from the library's magical stock.

Mediochre takes his turn and recounts the play of *Romeo and Juliet*. Although famous, the story is new for the Bookwyrm, who's only exposure to stories comes from the dangerous magic books in the library's archive. The dragon indicates that it is impressed, but insists that Charlotte also tell a story. Charlotte tells the apparently autobiographical tale of the first time she attended an outdoor music concert and wins the contest.

Charlotte gets herself a library card as she and Mediochre leave, and it is revealed that the Bookwyrm has also officially joined the library and been relocated to one of the reading rooms, alongside some of the less dangerous magical books.
Foynitcha Dave

**Foynitcha Dave** is a knowledge broker who trades information with Rowan Berry. He is her favourite American contact, keeping her informed of unusual events in the Mantically Aware United States.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

Rowan mentions to Mediochre that Foynitcha Dave had it "on good authority" that the Sapphire Smuggling Syndicate was behind a series of kidnappings pulled off using mancy in New York.

This information allowed Mediochre to work out that the kidnappings had been done to distract from the simultaneous kidnapping and recruitment of Maelstrom. While monologuing about this to Mr Antler, Mediochre muses that he should buy Foynitcha Dave a drink in return.

### Sent Into Mediochre-Drive

Foynitcha Dave breaks the news to Rowan that the American Player has awoken and escaped.
Professor Your Almighty God

> *"Professor Your Almighty God was the head of the School of Technomancy at St Merlin’s, and did indeed enjoy his job. As it happened, he was doing just fine. At this exact moment, he was sitting in a stylish bachelor pad, watching his own recorded lectures and smiling at his past self’s incredible sense of humour."*

Mediocrity

**Professor Your Almighty God** is a technomancer who works at St Merlin's University.

## Traits

Professor God is a somewhat self-obsessed, but technomantically brilliant professor at St Merlin's University. He has an ongoing frivalry with Mediochre, who insists upon calling him Your. When Professor God is visibly unsure of his own abilities, you know the characters are in trouble.

## Chronology

### The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre

Professor God first appears in *The Good, the Bad and the Mediochre*, when Dean Kiwi Mashuga takes Mediochre to see him to get a heating charm to protect the egg that contains the baby dragon, Glint. Mediochre, repeatedly refers to Professor God as Your, despite Professor God telling him that "God" would make an infinitely better hypocorism. The meeting is cut short when an SSS agent, Isobel, attacks the university, and Professor God tries (and fails) to prevent Mediochre from engaging with her.

Professor God briefly appears later, capturing a couple of SSS agents at Mediochre's reluctant behest.

### Black, White and Shades of Mediochre

In Book 2, it is revealed that Professor God was briefly promoted to role of Acting Dean at St Merlin's University, after Dean Kiwi Mashuga's arrest, but he stepped down when Mediochre threatened to resign.

Mediochre later brings Jacqueline Sable's diary to Professor God, so he can undo the enchantments sealing it closed. He is also one of the people whom Queen MAB calls in to consult before she decides to inform the public about the ongoing investigation into the necromancer.

### Caught Mediochre-Handed

Professor God develops a method of retrieving the building full of people that Maccabeus Fervour had sealed off from the rest of the universe. He is able to open a connection to the Mantic Ether of Reality and with Rowan's help he uses the half-human signature of Sam the half-werewolf, in the main universe, to latch onto Dhampinella's Dhampir signature (also half-human), and pull her through along with the rest of the building.
Tempomancy

**Tempomancy**is the Mantically Aware name for mantic manipulation of time.

## The Templeton Project

All of the best tempomancers in the world that could be found were brought together to work on the Templeton Project, which attempted to open a portal through time. They succeed but forgot to adjust for the movement of Earth through space and therefore opened a portal into empty vacuum. For this reason, there were no known survivors and there are very few tempomancers left by the time of the Main Series.
The Mediochre Fandom

**The Mediochre Fandom** has created various works in dedication to the Mediochre Q. Seth series, in addition to this wiki.

## Биография

После окончания занятий в школе Кара встретила Картера и отвела его в CatCo. Там Картер признался, что является фанатом Супергёрл, после того, как увидел репортаж о ней в новостях. На что Уинн сказал ему, что у него хороший вкус.

Позже Кара поручила Уинну присмотреть за Картером. Они играли в видеоигры в кабинете Кэт. Однако Картер ушел, чтобы попасть на супер-поезд Максвелла Лорда и встретить там там Супергёрл. Он, как и все пассажиры, был предупрежден Карой о том, что террорист Этан Нокс находится в поезде, но Супергёрл удалось предотвратить теракт.

На следующий день Картер встретил свою маму перед тем, как уйти в школу, спросив у нее, сможет ли он еще раз остаться с Карой, но Кэт отказала.

William Fraser Publishing

**William Fraser Publishing** was the publisher that the Mediochre Q. Seth Series was first published under, until it went into liquidation on the 11th April 2015. The announcement was made on the Mediochre Q. Seth Series Facebook page **here**.

## The Liquidation Announcement

On the 6th of April 2015, author Calum P. Cameron wrote the following announcement on the Mediochre Q. Seth Series Facebook page:

*\*\*IMPORTANT NOTICE\*\**

*I've been putting this off for a while now, but I have to write it sooner or later.*

*As of the 11th of April this year, William Fraser Publishing - the organisation that currently facilitates the availability of the three books thus far published in the Mediochre Q Seth series - will no longer be in operation.*

*Sadly, this is an issue out of the hands of both me and my publisher. For financial reasons, the organisation is not in any position to continue. It is in the nature of capitalism to sooner or later kill any small businesses that aren't both very good at what they do and lucky enough to avoid disaster. Turns out, one way or another, that's not us.*

*The three books of the Mediochre Q Seth series thus far published will continue to be available from Lulu.com and Amazon (among others) until the 11th of April. After that they will be unavailable until further notice.*

*I'm aware that some of you are already invested in this series and its story, and as such my intention is to eventually find some way to get those three books published again, along with the remaining two. If all else fails I will be looking into self-publishing. If even that fails, I shall do what I can to make the texts available through any other method. Unfortunately, I cannot say how long these processes will take.*

*My apologies to those of you for whom this is bad news.*

*Goodnight, friends (but not goodbye?),*

*Calum P Cameron*

*But That (With Any Luck) Was Not The Ending*
