[@Mortimer] Zero? No. You introduced your character in a good way. Also, considering history is one of the main courses, your character is rather important, but again... its more like a supporting role (an obvious important one, mind you) given that he's a teacher. Take my advice if you are truly interested in the RPG, but hey if not. I hope you stick around to watch its progress and perhaps you'll change your mind!
