"Ten demerits. Not a promising start."
—Grabiner to the Player

Professor Hieronymous Grabiner is a magical instructor at Iris Academy, as well as a Romance Option.

Family

Spoiler Information

It would appear that the professor comes from a family of English nobility. He does not appear to have a particularly amicable relationship with his father, Aloysius Grabiner. There is no exact indication as to who his mother is, but it is evidenced that Aloysius has been divorced at the very least once. He likely was primarily raised by retainers, and would appear to be an only child. Since his father is the 16th Viscount Montague, Hieronymous Grabiner is the heir apparent for the title, and would become the 17th when his father passes away or retires. Should the main character marry him and not absolve the marriage at the end of the necessary time, she might eventually become his Viscountess.

Personality

The initial impression of this man is of severe and taciturn cruelty, paired with an expansive intellect. This can be clearly evidenced in his frequent allusions, and, for example, that he can read a book about Slovenian hay-racks in the original language and niche readings of paleontology. He also has a surprisingly dry sense of humor, if not using his wits to insult others. It would appear that he is the routine victim of a few pranks from the students, especially during the Initiation. Thanks to this, his sharp reactions to receiving romantic letters belies a very deep frustration. He apparently administers at least freshman detentions himself, being the acting teacher for any potential detentions the main character serves. Should you fail any of your exams, it's most likely that he'll be the one to transport you out of the dungeons. He also appears to be the primary teacher class council members report to.

Magic

Professor Hieronymous Grabiner teaches freshman level Red and Blue magic, but would appear to hold expertise in every field.
