Felix Philip

Felix, is one of Carter and Sadie's students. He is ten years old and completely obsessed with penguins. He is also known to be talented at playing basketball and is one of the youngest Brooklyn House trainees, although he prefers to use things like shoes and basketballs, rather than magic, as weapons. He likes to use magic for practical jokes and summoning magical penguins, but not really for combat. It is also mentioned that Felix turned the fireplace into an icy area (with penguins, of course).

The Throne of Fire

 * Felix is one of Carter and Sadie's students.


 * In Magic Problem Solving 101, Felix used a basketball to make a shabti lose it's balance and shatter into pieces. When the Three Headed Snake attacked Carter and his other trainees, Felix took off his left shoe and threw it at one of the heads.


 * In the Battle of Brooklyn House, he summoned penguins which is quite effective as the magicians who were sent to Antartica seemed to be terrified of them.

The Serpent's Shadow

 * Felix had summoned several penguins while raiding the giftshop with his fellow trainees as Carter and Sadie were outside. These penguins, when discovered, were wearing King Tut masks.


 * At the end of the book, he says that he was meant to follow the path of the Ice god, much to Carter's confusion, as egypt is a hot country, and there would be no ice. Carter asked if there is a god of ice, and Felix replied enthusiasticly that he had no idea.

Trivia

 * The God Felix serves could possibly be Tefnut, who has minor ice abilities, being a water god.
 * Felix might also follow the path of Nephthys, with her abilities as a river goddess, she might have some powers over the three different forms of water.
 * Felix has a deep love for penguins, as he was saddened when his penguins were turned to nothing.
 * Felix has a tendancy to shout "ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas" when flying on Freak, probably causing mortals who see to think they are insane as they can't percieve magic.
