<p>86.173.109.159: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Professor John Hicks (Hix)''' is currently the Head of the [[Department of Post-Mortem Communications]] at [[Unseen University]]. Not, it ''must'' be stressed, a [[Necromancy|Necromancer]] - gods, no! No, they just communicate with those, such as Professor [[Flead]] who have passed on to join the great majority. Nothing disturbing about that, eh? What? The fading letters on the door - &quot;NEC..M....&quot;? Just coincidence.<br /> <br /> He is also a leading member of the [[Dolly Sisters Players]].<br /> <br /> Hicks plays a semi-pivotal role in {{MM}}, helping [[Moist von Lipwig]] and [[Adora Belle Dearheart]] work out how to communicate with the [[Umnian Golems]] through Professor Flead. <br /> <br /> A much put-upon [[Wizard]], Hicks has to bribe his post-graduate students into helping him perform an [[Insorcism]] on Flead.<br /> <br /> As of {{UA}}, John Hicks spells his name Hix because an evil (by University statute) wizard can't pass up an opportunity to have an x in his name.<br /> It is also revealed he is allowed to act &quot;evil&quot; and break the rules &quot;within college statutes&quot;, apparently all this is done in the basis that the [[Archchancellor]] can trust Hix to be untrustworthy.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Discworld characters|Hicks, John]]<br /> [[Category:Wizards|Hicks, John]]<br /> [[de:John Hicks]]</div>
