Artemas H. Whipple
Artemas H. Whipple was an infamous wizard rom the 925th Universe. In the 1970s, he opened a “Private Wizarding School” in Crieff, where he secretly trained young wizards as weapons against the Yellow King, (PROSE: Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division) or, by another account, “the Infernal Forces of Carcosa”. (PROSE: Good Crieff: The Tribulations of the Scottish Division (2024 reedit)) His toxic methods, which involved teaching the wizards to believe themselves to be superior to normal humans, and heaping special worship on one child with a peculiar birthmark whom he hailed as “the Best Boy”, were eventually discovered and he was placed in “wizard prison”. The school building, grey and non-euclidean, remained abandoned until “the start of the wizard economic crisis”, which allowed the Man in Grey to purchase it for cheap to turn it into the HQ of the M.F.S. Scottish Division. (PROSE: Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division)
