was granted a wish by Etheah of the Woodland (see below); he wished that she would fall in love with him and teach him magic, which she did. Willie / Kizarvexius – Kizarvexius is an evil dragon; he has a split personality named "Willie" who believes that he is a duck. According to Geezel, the dragon was struck in the head by lightning during a powerful storm, and forgot who or what he was. Suthaze cursed the dragon into believing that he was a duck. Thus, Suthaze gained a powerful servant that could be easily controlled. In his "Willie" personality, the dragon spoke with a pronounced lisp, was afraid of snakes, played in an oversize water bowl, was quite gullible, and was friendly—even good-natured. He quickly became friends with the charming Snarf, and allowed Snarf to loot Suthaze's treasure room. Upon learning that the word "Dragon" broke the spell that Suthaze had placed on him, Snarf shouted the word at the dragon when leaving the room. As Snarf intended, upon hearing it, Willie reverted to his true personality as Kizarvexius, an evil, fire-breathing dragon and attacked his captors who were pursuing Snarf and his friends. After being caught in the explosion of Suthaze's tower, he once again considered himself to be a duck. So far, this has been permanent; hearing the word Dragon has not caused him to revert. Etheah of the Woodland – Etheah is a good sorceress who lives in her own forested domain. Her wand of wishes was stolen from her by Suthaze, and she was not powerful enough to fight him in his own lair to win it back. She hired Snarf and Prince Raffendorf to rescue it, in return for one wish each on delivery of the wand. Because of the wish that Geezel made, Etheah is in love with Geezel and is teaching him magic. Leech – The leech is a small, octopus-like creature with a single clawed arm. Originally called a "Gaggaleech", it came into Snarf's possession when he bought a Gagglezoomer in the town of 'Keynovia'. ~~ Gagglezoomer- a large, unintelligent lizard that will run at high speeds whenever anything touched the sensitive section of its back. (Hitched to a cart or wagon, Gagglezoomers could be used as fast, if unpredictable, beasts of burden.)~~ It was later revealed that the "Gaggaleech" was, in fact, a Darkshade death leech—an extremely venomous type of
