He is the Obi Wan Kenobi to her Luke Skywalker, or perhaps he is the Obi Wan to her Anakin.

While Uncle Aloysius has the ability to keep her safe, he might not always be around. He is well aware that her parents are empty-headed, but he knows that she has potential.Īs she continues to explore this new way of life she learns that she has to be careful. Despite his hard exterior, he has a soft spot for Courtney. It's clear that Uncle Aloysius is a complex character with an extremely interesting background. I found their slowly developing relationship to be endearing. Things begin to backfire for her until Uncle Aloysius gives her a hand.
Like most characters, with great power comes great responsibility. That means trouble for the school bully.Ĭourtney continues to explore magical spells, and tinkers with her Uncle Aloysius' books. With the help of one of Uncle Aloysius' books, she learns how to capture a goblin and convince it to do a favor for her. Courtney courageously decides to take matters into her own hands making her a very admirable character in my eyes. You really can't blame her for not going to her parents, since they seem to be in a "la la" land of sorts. A normal kid would probably alert a parent or school teacher that their friend was eaten by a monster, but not Courtney.
