Charles Lutwidge Dodgson

Lewis Carroll is the pen-name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. He is the Writer for Namesake Alice Liddell.

Calliope
When Charles brought Alice to Calliope, Thumbelina was the Chief Administrator. The little Namesake was at turns affectionate and prickly with them both, and told Charles to his face he was a 'big mother hen.' Calliope was good for them both, for Charles no longer had to live a split life in guarding over Alice. He knew she was in good hands among the other Namesakes and Writers. At Calliope he is known as Lewis Carroll.

Death
The official story was Charles died of pneumonia at his sisters' home in 1898, just a fortnight shy of his 66th birthday. Even Alice believed it. At least, at first...

True Cause of Death
In Blood and Shadows The Shadow-infected Ina Liddell tells Alice she murdered Charles by setting free a cage of Frost Fairies. They froze his lungs as he slept, and everyone thought it was pneumonia. Ina implies that it was the only way, as Alice had poisoned him too much. Over his grave, the two sisters fought for one last time with Alice and Chester losing their lives.

Legacy
Charles remains a beloved writer for the ages, and not just from chronicling Alice's Adventures. His acute descriptions of migraines led to the naming of The Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (AIWS), a distortion that gives the sufferer the illusion that they are shrunken or expanded. His mathematical work remains important. Memorials and Commemorations exist all over the world in celebration of his labors.
