Professor Hieronymus Lazuli
Part-time University Professor (of Philosophy, or Practicality, or something or other) and Librarian.
No one really knows what to make of his class. Doesn’t always give the most straightforward advice. Can be very blunt, pompous, and short-tempered, but he does mean well. Great at multitasking.
