Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Everyone knows that Charlie Bone can hear the voices of photographs and paintings, but what else can he do?

Answer: Travel through the pictures and paintings

In the book "Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy", Charlie Bone visits Skarpo in his painting. He did not know he could do that until he looked at the painting and Skarpo looked back at him. Charlie asked his Uncle Paton why and how he did that. Uncle Paton explained to him about possibly traveling through pictures.
2. Idith and Inez Branko are twins, but what type of twins are they?

Answer: Telekinetic

You can get this information two ways. One, look on page that has the list of the endowed children in "Charlie Bone and the Castle of Mirrors", it says their names then has the description: "Telekinetic twins, distantly related to Zelda Dobinski, who has left Bloor's Academy". Two, when they are in the King's Room on the first day in "Charlie Bone and the Castle of Mirrors", Manfred introduces everyone.

When he gets to Ideth and Inez they show off and make Charlie's books move. Tancred grunts "Telekinesis".
3. Manfred Bloor's deep black eyes are pretty creepy if you ask me, but what else can they do? Besides scare the poor creature who has to look at them.

Answer: Hypnotize them

In any of the books where Manfred Bloor is concerned Charlie or anyone else who talks to him always describes his eyes as a pitch black, dark pit or close enough to it, and looks away quickly to avoid his hypnotizing stare.
4. Asa Pike is a were-beast. At what time does he change his shape?

Answer: Dusk

In the opening pages of any of "The Children of the Red King" Series, the name Asa Pike reads: "A were-beast. He is descended from a tribe who lived in the northern forests and kept strange beasts. Asa can change shape at dusk." Charlie and some of his friends have seem Asa in his beast shape, and hope never to see it again.
5. Billy Raven can converse with animals. He gets this endowment from one of his ancestors who talked to a type of animal and got banished from the town for it. What type of animal was it?

Answer: Raven

Billy can converse with animals. One of his ancestors spoke with ravens that sat on gallows (wooden frames used for hangings), where dead men hung. For this talent he was banished from that village.
6. Emma Tolly can fly, although she likes to do something before she can turn into the bird. What is it she likes to do?

Answer: Draw it

Emma Tolly has to draw the bird, think really hard about it, and she transforms. Emma didn't know she could do this until Charlie "woke her up" from being hypnotized in "Midnight for Charlie Bone".
7. Gabriel Silk comes from a line of psychics. What is his endowment?

Answer: Feels scenes and emotions through clothing

This is a trick question. Naturally you want to say clairvoyance, since that's future telling, and he's descended from psychics. Just remember in "Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy" when he gets the glove stuck on his hand, and he feels the dark lady's pain when her hand get crushed by the door by Manfred.
8. Tancred Torsson is a storm-bringer. His Scandinavian ancestor was named after whom?

Answer: Thunder god

Tancred ancestor's name was Thor. Tancred's father is also a storm-bringer. He also has two sisters and mother who have no endowments. They all live in the Thunder House.
9. This person can bewitch clothing. Who is it?

Answer: Dorcas Loom

In my opinion, Dorcas bewitched the glove that Charlie found and Gabriel tried on in "Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy". Also, the belt that Julia Ingledew tried on and got so tight it almost suffocated her in "Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy".
10. Lysander Sage was descended from a wise man. What continent was the wise man from?

Answer: Africa

The African ancestor's tribe used drums like most tribes. When the ancestors get mad Lysander, and sometimes people around him, can hear drums beating like in "Charlie Bone and the Invisible Boy".
