I want to get on this crazy ride!

How about this...

I am a middle aged, balding, fat man who wears old musty robes and has thick glasses. He is somewhat of a scholar/historian that goes around quoting obscure books and saying stuff like 'That dates back to King such and such in the era of blah blah blah...' You know, background stuff that helps develope the history of the place but doesn't really advance the story. Oh...And I get to do the occasional very bad joke and ramble on about comic book characters.

Oh, and I only show up every now and then.
