Douxie Casperan

Hisirdoux "Douxie" Casperan XIV is a master wizard and former apprentice of Merlin, with a talking familiar Dragon Cat named Archie. Once known as a reckless student at Arcadia Oaks Academy, Douxie has matured into a responsible leader as the second-in-command of the Guardians of Arcadia. He shares a deep bond with his friends Claire Nunez, Steve Palchuk, and Jim Lake Jr., and is a co-creator of the Trollhunter Amulet. Douxie eventually becomes Claire's magic teacher, solidifying their connection as mentor and apprentice. Five years into the future, Douxie has further honed his skills and leadership abilities. He guides the Guardians as they confront disturbances in the magical fabric of their world, which threaten both their realm and the balance of magical beings. In a familiar glade in the Arcadian forest, Douxie uses his magic to conjure a map revealing ley lines of energy, highlighting potential dangers. Douxie approaches each challenge with a newfound focus, understanding that magic is a tool for growth rather than a shortcut to success. He instructs Claire on the importance of intent and mindfulness in spellcasting, demonstrating his growth by using his powers judiciously. In the heat of battle, he emphasizes teamwork, encouraging his friends to leverage their strengths to overcome obstacles together. In addition to his leadership role, Douxie honors Merlin’s legacy by organizing community gatherings at Arcadia Oaks Academy to share his knowledge with aspiring young wizards. Walking through the academy, he sees reflections of his younger self in the eager students, reigniting his passion for teaching. While shadows of loss from Merlin's death still linger, Douxie has learned to define himself by the bonds he has formed and the courage he has developed. He is committed to protecting his friends and their world, embodying the heart of a true Guardian while continuing to embrace the lessons of hard work and compassion that Merlin imparted to him.
