History Characters / Magic20

* FashionDesigner: Gwen's real job. She pretends to be just a seamstress in Medieval England, buying fabric in the 21st century and sewing it in her workshop. She designs all the wizards' robes.

** In fact one could consider his first enounter with Phillip as an EstablishingCharacterMoment for the duality of this flaw. His impulsive nature both prevents him from reading Phillip's cues and realizing the man knew more than he would say in public, only making him look more like a fool and forcing him to take a few lumps so Phillip could keep up the act, and yet impresses Phillip so much with his grandios acting and on the spot declarations that Phillip decided he personally wanted train Martin himself if he showed basic decency, which he had no problem doing once forced to slow down.

* WalkingTechbane: As part of his exile, Todd's magnetic field is turned UpToEleven, meaning any electronic device shuts down near him, which means he can't get access to the file, as that would require being next to a computer.

* MixedAncestry: A mild example. Martin's mother is Mexican, while his father is Caucasian. However, the novels pay little homage to his Mexican heritage with the exception of his MagicStaff topper: the bust of the masked wrestler Wrestling/ElSanto he got while visiting his mother's side of the family in Mexico.

* CreativeSterility: The game he traps the guys in is a ClicheStorm of the worst kind. Most of the enemies are variations of the same wolf enemy, al of the enemies are programmed the same, it has an uninspired Fantasy plot, the plot-holes are abundant (like how the miners that need their canary to mine don't actually use the canary when they do mine) and the SpecialEffectsFailure of the scripted segments (like the collapsing bridge and the Zombie-Gwens). Ironically, the game's overall quality tortures the guys just as much -- if not more in Tyler's case -- through sheer frustration than the actual attempts that Todd tries to harm them.

* MagicalAsian: More of a Magical Asian-American, Eddie pretends to be a "mysterious sorcerer from the East" and even uses a made-up Asian name. In fact, he was born and raised in {{Joisey}}.

* CaveMouth: Gary has sculpted the entrance to his cave as a large human skull with glowing eyes. In front of the mouth is a blue flame that never goes out.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Louiza compared to her predecessor.

A wizard-in-training, who was exiled for his sadistic tendencies. He manages to escape prison in the third book and tries to exact revenge on the wizards who exiled him.

!!President Ida
The current elected leader of the Sorceresses of Atlantis and one-third of the Atlantean triumvirate.

* {{Foil}}: Sees himself as this to Jimmy, whom he steadfastly refuses to call Merlin. As far as Phillip is concerned, rules exist for a reason. However, what annoys Phillip the most is that he knows that people like Jimmy always win in the end. Despite Jimmy's seemingly friendly nature, Phillip stubbornly insists that they're ''not'' friends, frequently resulting in a lot of AndZoidberg situations.

A tour guide with a passion for architecture from Racine, Wisconsin, in 1996, who comes up with a macro to build things quickly on a molecular level and uses it to construct the city of {{Atlantis}} in ancient Mediterranean. Due to a StableTimeLoop, exists as two versions of herself: Brit the Elder and Brit the Younger. Brit the Elder is the one who actually built the city, while the event is still in Brit the Younger's personal future. Both Brits take up the two non-elected posts of the Atlantean triumvirate.

!!Special Agent Murphy

A 22-year-old seamstress in Medieval England, who turns out to be a time traveler from 2014. Only Phillip, Jimmy, and Eddie knew the truth. Gwen moves to Atlantis after the first novel and back to Medieval England after the second novel.

* YourCheatingHeart: Brit eventually breaks up with Phillip, thinking that he cheated on her. In fact, [[spoiler:a version of Brit decides to fake this memory in order to keep any other version of her from getting back together with him, as she's mad about him keeping certain things from her and believing his claim that she's not stuck in a StableTimeLoop]].

* TooDumbToLive: After first getting access to the file, Todd decides that the best thing he can do is kill his own boss by cutting the connections between the atoms in his body, turning the man into a large puddle of goo. Then he gives up his own involvement by showing up to work in galoshes the next day.
