Well I know Cyrus Drake isn't really real but still i wonder this. WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY AND RUDE ALL THE TIME? I mean what did anyone ever do to you? lol Was it your brother Malistare that made you so angry?
Yes, the head master is aware of his attitude. He isn't grouchy, but arrogant. He believes that you must prove yourself to be a great wizard, thus challenging you to prove him wrong.
If you ask any myth student, especially those with multiple wizards, I bet most of them would say he was their favorite teacher. I am no exception to that.
I totally miss his classes and hope with the next extension, us Myth wizards will have to take with Prof. Drake. He just cracks me up.
I rather suspect that Prof. Drake was in love with Malistair's wife, who's name has escaped for the moment. This would explain many things in the story line. Since it was a forbidden love he dare not talk of it. Its not right to love your brothers wife. It probably pains him still.
