}}'''Doctor Curious''', civilian name '''Joan Gary''', 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. He had several run-ins with the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]], though they did not consider him a serious threat. | }}'''Doctor Curious''', civilian name '''Joan Gary''', was an eccentric mad scientist from the [[Jynx Dimension]].

When he learned of his master's plans, however, the Monster decided to turn against him, destroying the computer and then, after Curious unveiled the [[Story Rewriter 3000]] and tried to use it to turn the situation to his advantage, tossed it to Tom so that he could use it to allow all the Cupids to escape safely in their [[Fog Ship]]s, now miraculously repaired. As they fled, blasting a hole through his castle's wall in the process (and taking the Monster with them), Curious swore revenge on them, though he was unsure of how he'd find the [[Cupid Homeworld]], or indeed make the virus anew.

Later, having acquired [[Doctor Curious's Void Ship|a Void Ship]], Curious found himself outside the [[Interdimensional Tavern]], where he bumped into [[Darius]], who had recently been evicted from the Tavern due to running out of money with which to pay for his room. Intent on claiming him as a friend, Curious abducted Darius, only for the dromedary to overpower the snake and, having dumped him out, fly off in his Void Ship. However, Darius soon crashed the ship in [[Manik]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Frost King's Treasure (novel)|The Frost King's Treasure]]'') | |||
