He was one of the best characters I thought, he was funny (not as funny as bart) and was kinda cool...maybe a little stupid when he killed himself to defeat the golem...but anyway I thought he was a fairly good character and probably a more than worthy adversary if Bart and him actually had a 1 on 1 fight. |

His name is Honorius, and he's grumpy that you called him a foliot. He's an afrit. |

Yeah, not sure how you got it as foliot. If it was a foliot, Bartimaeus would have killed it instantly. And I think we already have a topic on Honorius. |

Nah, he didn't have a vendetta, he was just insane. I think that in his insanity, he was looking for anything to do against the thing, and that was all he had left. Poor Honorious, not so honorable after all. I'm with Bart- I think my engaging personality could keep me sane for at least a little bit longer. |

I wonder if his personality would have been different had he not been encased in the bones. Would he have been this insane? Possibly not. |

Probably. Maybe not as quickly, but still insane after awhile. |

Because he is Honorius? Other demon's don't get insane when free. |

He was insane when he escaped, not after he left. |

Meaning? How's 'left' different from 'escaped'? |

Isn't. I'm saying the guy was nuts when he left (or escaped) the tomb, not after. It was said that he lost his sanity after his escape. He didn't. He was already cooku. |

He went insane after being in there so long, is what I think you're trying to say. |
