Michel Desjardins

Michel Desjardins is a magician of French descent. He became the Chief Lector after Iskandar died. In the Red Pyramid, he wants to kill Sadie and Carter because they are hosting gods. The Kane children wrongly assumed that Desjardins was the host of Set. Desjardins, along with Zia Rashid, Mel, and an unnamed magician, go to kill the Kane children.

He is the great-great-great grandson of Howard Carter, who found the Rosetta Stone and after it explodes, Desjardins is livid.
