Nicholas
Adamsworth
Nicholas Adamsworth is an orphan who attended Campbell
County Community College at the age of 11 as part of a program for
students with extremely high intelligence. Here he met
Eugene Meltsner in the computer records
department at the college.
His counselor was Richard Maxwell who
blackmailed Nicholas into changing student grades by threatening to give
a bad report and get him kicked out of college. The exposure of the
scheme resulted in the expulsion of Richard Maxwell from the school, the
probation of Nicholas and the return of Eugene to Whit's End, having
been terminated.
Eugene and Nicholas continued to work together and in one event,
Nicholas accidentally deleted one of Eugene's computer projects which
sent him running to Whit's End to hide. Nicholas is convinced to return
to Eugene to ask forgiveness after witnessing the story of Onesimus in
the Imagination Station.
However, Nicholas makes a complete turn in character a few years later.
His character returns in middle school rather than in college. He also
has joined the Bones of Wrath and has hatched a plan to take revenge on
the people who picked on him earlier in his life. The plan also includes
a grade changing scam which harkens back to his first appearance,
although without the remorse or blackmail as his motive, however. |
