Walt Stone

Walt Stone is one of the new trainees that Sadie and Carter are training along with Jaz and originally comes from Seattle. He is known as a sau, a charm maker.

Etymology
Walt is a shortened version of the Germanic Walter which means 'rule people'. Which is ironic being the blood of the pharoahs.

Background
Walt is descended from the heretic pharaoh, Akhenaton and as such he is dying of a curse (the curse of Tutankhamen) that has carried down the family line(e.g. his dad died at 18). Despite this, Walt determined to learn magic and came to Brooklyn House from Seattle. He sought help from his fellow trainee, Jaz, but there seems that there is nothing that can be done. While at Brooklyn House, he comes to develop a crush on Sadie.

The Throne of Fire
Walt is with Carter, Sadie, and Jaz when they break into the Brooklyn Museum. When the evil bau are accidentally unleashed, he is affected by their power and Jaz does her best to heal him. He escapes along with Jaz, Carter, and Sadie on the griffin, Freak.

When Carter learns that Sadie is being attacked by Nekhbet and Babi in London, Walt goes with him to ensure her safety. Upon finding her safe and with Bes, Walt is forced by Bes to leave as they go on to Russia without him.

Later, Sadie summons him to help her find the last scroll of Ra. They knock down a tower and find hundreds of Roman mummies under it. They meet the god, Ptah. They escape the mummies using fire. Before Sadie summons him, he is in the presence of Anubis, calling on him for help.

Personality
Sadie notes that he seems to have a 'gravity' about him that allows him to command attention when required. He always thinks carefully before acting, and Carter describes his personality as "Sadie`s exact opposite". He also has a crush on Sadie.

Appearance
Walt is described as having coffee bean-brown skin and a closely-shaven head and has a lean and muscular build. He wears self-made amulets on golden chains.

Powers and Abilities
Walt is a sau, a charm maker. Other than charm making, he appears to have the ability to turn matter that are weak enough to turn into dust simply by a tap of his finger. However the power is not clearly known.

Magical Items
Because Walt is a sau, he has a variety of magical items in his possession at any given time. This includes a boat amulet and a Shu amulet.

Sadie Kane:
Walt and Sadie had a close relationship since they worked together. Walt is in love with Sadie, and wants to spend as much time with her before he dies due to the curse his family passed on to him. When both of them were finding the third scroll, Walt said good job and playfully hit her. Walt went to protect Brooklyn house with Zia and this scared Sadie that she may never see Walt again. It is also proven that Walt likes her because he kissed her while searching for Ptah.

Trivia
