Susan

Susan is a secondary character in The Last Apprentice. He is a dog turned human in a spell gone wrong; he is distractingly handsome with extremely poor manners. He refers to everyone as ‘syr’ and ‘mym’ and has a very thick Al’ter(Elvish) accent. He is looking for his mother (owner) and wants Thomothy’s help turning her back into a human.

Character
He was an Afghan Hound before the change so he is quite smart ... meaning that he can fetch pretty well and knows not to chew on chair legs or sit on the couch but anything above that is hard for him to comprehend. He is however extremely loyal (especially to Thomothy Wode, though he hasn't the faintest idea why) and brave to a fault. He also hates vegetables.

Physical Appearance
His face is all sharp angles and prominent cheekbones. His hair is long, dark, and hangs in an effortless tangle of curls and only serves to enhance his features. He is wearing a light mahogany shawl that he has draped across his shoulders and wound around his head. On his legs he is wearing cream, linen guard’s slacks (still inside-out) and they are tied up with a threaded leather belt. Finally, he has opted to not wear a shirt, leaving it bare for all to observe his lean yet muscular physique (and much to Thomothy Wode's disgust).

 * Janooliy His mother is suddenly blamed for a crime she didn't commit. To escape prosecution, she swaps forms with Susan - turning herself into a dog, and him into a human. Sorceress Lihura was suddenly transformed into an Afghan Hound while Susan became a twenty-something year old, nude male in her living quarters. This, of course lead to disaster as Susan, terrified of his own form, fled from her tower and terrorised the New Yorrick villagers and guards, half barking, half speaking. After fifteen minutes of this, Susan was finally detained by the New Yorrick guards for 'suspicion of aiding a magical conspirator' and 'obscene wiggling of one's privates'.

Trivia

 * Prefers no clothing over some clothing and if indeed he has to wear clothes at all, they usually end up backwards or assembled very awkwardly. Susan is colour blind so he doesn't understand colours thus his attire is usually rather vibrant and completely and utterly mismatched.
 * Is the Sorceress Lihura's dog.
