The Gardener and odd job [[Dwarfs|dwarf]] of [[Unseen University]]. Nothing pleases him more in life than good compost and high-quality roses. Previously the gardener at the [[Patrician's Palace]], he enjoys his job at the UU much more, feeling that he sees much more life in his current job. Modo considers the running of the University a co-operation between him and the wizards; while they keep horrors from the [[Dungeon Dimensions]] off the lawn, he makes sure they have a reason to. There are few people in the world who are as happy and care-free as Modo. Although the furrow and divots left by a [[Gargoyles|gargoyle]] running across the lawn have been known to cause him a little angst.

His compost heaps are legendary. He doesn't need to resort to collecting dung from the [[College of Heralds]]' collection of somewhat elderly and arthritic legendary beasts, and it's perhaps a good idea that he doesn't, as the University's compost is ''perfectly'' capable of developing a mind of its own, as well as growing prize-winning flora. Witness events in {{RM}} where there's an awful lot of excessive life-energy swilling around, and the [[Faculty]] are briefly troubled by acid-exuding ambulatory compost, until [[Mustrum Ridcully]] sacrifices a bottle of [[Wow-Wow Sauce]] in hand-grenade fashion, necessitating a major clean-up of the Great Hall afterwards.
