You can tell you went back and forth with your CS a bit as Arthur is said to have finished his Ph.D at one point and at another that he is apparently near the end. Otherwise, I like this character, but perhaps I'm biased -- from the detail of his background to the very image, he is extremely close to old professor of mine from undergrad. A philologist and historian Ph.D, he started me off on my way to learning Latin and put me in an entirely new head space. Yes, this is not him and I understand that, but imagining an academic like him in a world like this seems very compelling. 

I'd love to see a post from you before I move us along!

 Arthur Collins 39 Rare Book Collector/Part-time Professor of Literature Reading and playing chess Arthur thinks in terms of a game. He sees everyone and everything as a giant game and will do his best to plan everything out in his day and gets extremely bothered when something doesn't go according to his plan or is out of his control to fix. He hates being late for anything, and he considers himself being late if he planned to get somewhere ten minutes before he had to and arrives any time after that. Arthur went to a private school for Grade School, Middle School, and High School. He was Captain of the Chess Team in High School. He graduated second in his class and went on to a local University in his hometown, where he pursued a Bachelors in Literature and was also on the fencing and chess team; he also met his best friend, Richie, there. After graduation there, he moved to where he is now for Grad School and his Doctoral Studies in Literature with Richie. Arthur has since completed his studies and has been teaching part-time at the same University he got his Ph. D. from for ten years now along with working at a local museum as a rare book collector. Arthur is a very well-spoken man, making him very charismatic; he is also fluent in Latin. He is a very clever and quick-witted man and excels at strategy games such as chess and even fencing. Arthur is fast when it comes to sprinting short distances, but when it comes to running long distances he has very little endurance. He is also not very physically strong at all and can be overpowered easily by a stronger adversary.
