Farquhar

Farquhar was a young man who replaced Master Rokaill as Rosella's Tutor, when his age was beginning to take its toll. He helped defeat the weevils that were destroying Daventry.

His mother was afraid of horses, since she was thrown off of one. His father was a farrier so he wasn't allowed to visit him while he was working since he worked with horses. He came from a family of twelve kids. He also lived with his Grandma Bethina, his aunts, Auntie Inni, and Auntie Panni.

He had applied for the Magicians' Academy but failed the entrance exams so worked various odd jobs including;

Cook, spider catcher, charcoal burner, dockhand, and sailor. He tutors in geography, science, mathmatics, philosophy, and the basics of spell casting.

He is especially learned in the knowledge of the sciences.

When he applied the second time at the Magicians' Academy he got in. But he didn't get very good grades, and failed the Academy, becoming a Tutor instead.

Behind the scenes
Farquhar is a failed magician, as he was not able to pass all of his exams at the Magicians' Academy, as such is not a real magician.
