Oh. I see them.

JQS1-2 A yellow-robe wizard who is, among various other things, the "Chosen One." He wields the Sword of Fighting, whether he likes it or not (and he most assuredly does not). Has a crush on Nara, which is the only reason he stayed with the group of heroes up until he got the Sword of Fighting, after which he cannot abandon the quest, no matter how much he may want to. His talent for languages is the only thing preventing his quest companions from beating him to death over his chronic cowardice. Interestingly, it seems that he will be getting steadily braver as the series goes on: in season two he paused in running away long enough to rescue Nara from a horde of zombies (she could not escape herself, being drugged at the time and thus convinced they were going to braid her hair instead of eat her), and later he took the time to cast a spell and save Nara from a corpse worm before running with her and the Orc (Strong Like Bull) who had led them to the corpse worm in the first place. Strong Like Bull realizes that Perf has the rare, possibly unique, ability to retrocast spells and, although failing to create the intended effect, still making something happen. This is due to Perf being dyslexic.

He has a tattoo on his stomach of the words "Meat Henge" and a hand pointing downwards. The absurdity/hilarity of this tattoo is mentioned by his companions when he accidentally reveals it via a botched spell.

The creators have acknowledged Perf's similarities to Rincewind, but maintain that he will develop in a completely diferent direction than Rincewind. If you see any rich tourists with magical luggage, though...

Played by Christian Doyle.
