Sphinx is an armless big man, the caring “mother” of the Sphinx is an armless big man. Quite an authoritative person in the House - in Smoker's opinion, he ranks next to Blind in importance. In the past he was nicknamed "Grasshopper". Appearance: Green-eyed and browless, tall, wears dentures he calls rakes. Bald, looking older than his years. Was a reddish blond before his first jump. Blind’s best friend.
