Doctor Curious
Doctor Curious was an eccentric mad scientist from the Jynx Dimension. Originally the crown prince of Triskadeckia, he became a mad scientist and, after experimenting on himself and mutating into a strange snake-headed man, had to run away from home, breaking off his engagement and forsaking his right to the throne.
Obsessed with “making” friends (from spare parts, à la Baron Frankenstein, and not too fussed about borrowing from living “donors”), Doctor Curious was a dangerous individual, although he was often too incompetent and trusting to actually pose a serious threat to an informed opponent. He had several run-ins with the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids. Pythagoras-858 once stated that he had “a dictionary-sized case file” in the Cupid Homeworld.
In December 2020, having learned of Christmas on his extradimensional adventures, Doctor Curious decided to try and tell Emperor Steer about it, hoping this would be the beginning of a friendship between the two of them. However, after travelling to Darkborough, he was somehow unable to make his way to the Imperial Castle despite it being located on a tall hill in the exact middle of the City. He encountered the Clown, who asked him for directions to the Castle, which he somehow gave him despite not being able to find it himself. An hour later, he was still lost when Pythagoras, Sherlock Holmes and Wendy VII, hot on the heels of the Clown, bumped into him. After a brief chat during which he confirmed that he had met the Clown, they parted ways once more. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
