Who is Professor Croft?

If he plopped beside you on the subway, you might notice his disheveled coat and battered shoulder bag, but you’d have no idea he was New York’s hardest working mage (or that his cat talked).

Never properly trained, he’s been learning on the job. And what a job it is. Outwitting vampires, wrestling werewolves, and banishing powerful demons, all while holding down a teaching gig.

But wizarding is in his blood, and he’ll do whatever it takes to protect his dysfunctional city, even if he mashes a few toes along the way.

Watch your feet.
