Mendel

Mendel. See 'demon?', 'nerd', 'geek', 'genie', 'godmoder'.

Mendel has a part to play in the Hades story arc, in which he develops somewhat from an amateur demon geneticist.

Mendel has no one habitual form. Like most genies, he is often to be found wearing various appendages of unusual function with which he is experimenting (biological radio-wave receptors, ceramic electrical armouring or poison strips, anyone?). As such, he can be rather intimidating; a Frankenstein's monster of sorts, if Frankenstein had had access to the listings of Collic's Modern Bestiary.

Famous quotes:

• "What do you think: the interlocked scale, the fishskin or something jointed in chitin?"
• "Could you try to stab me please?"
• "Roll two d17."
• "Oh, it's you. Put your finger here, would you?"

He may make cameo appearances at Pro if his author is feeling particularly mischievous. The time period when Pro inhabitants may meet him represents Mendel at almost maximal potential. Luckily Mendel is friendly and generally non-harmful, though he does enjoy the odd irregular practical joke.
