A stout little man with a bald head that seems entirely too large for the rest of him, greets you as you enter. Quintus Quibble has been the owner of Scribblestone for almost three decades now and in that time has grown quite used to getting stared at by those who haven't met him before. Standing on a box behind the counter, it is quite obvious that the man suffers from stunted growth. When he moves, it is with grunted effort and the use of a cane. The exact magical malady from which Quintus suffers remains a mystery, though rumour has it that it must be something dark and severe to have such lasting effects. The small spectacles Quintus wears exaggerate his unfortunately round and bulbous head, but he always manages to smooth over the initial shock with his warm and genuine attitude. Quintus is a craftsman through and through and a master calligrapher whose knowledge of ink, quills, stationery, and other writing implements is unmatched. Rumour has it that Quintus owns an extremely rare phoenix feather quill, and when asked about it, the learned little man smiles knowingly, before quickly changing the subject. Note: students are advised not to inquire about cheating quills if they wish to remain welcome at Scribblestone.
