'''Fitch''' is a professor of [[Rithmatics]] at [[Armedius Academy]]. He teaches a Rithmatics class until [[Nalizar]] beats him in a duel and takes his place, relegating him to tutoring professor.{{book ref|Rithmatist|1}} Afterwards, [[Melody Muns]] is assigned to his remedial Rithmatics class. He is also tasked by [[Thomas York|Principal York]] with investigating the disappearances of the students that the [[Scribbler]] kidnapped. [[Joel Saxon]] acts as his research assistant.{{book ref|Rithmatist|6}}
== Appearance and Personality ==
Fitch typically dresses in a white vest, shirt, and trousers with the red coat with a militaristic feel, the coat of a full Rithmatic professor{{book ref|Rithmatist|1}}. After he swaps places with Nalizar he wears the grey coat of tutoring professor. Fitch is distraught by this, and he cries himself to sleep that night{{book ref|Rithmatist|5}}. He loves teaching and doesn't mind interruptions by students unless they bother him early in the morning or late at night. Fitch is uncomfortable about dueling, and confrontation in general. As such, it is hard for Fitch to focus and create his defenses properly while dueling.

▲==Nalizar's Challenge==
▲A few days before the start of summer, Professor Fitch was challenged by [[Andrew Nalizar]]. Fitch was uncomfortable about dueling, and confrontation in general. As such, it was hard for Fitch to focus and create his defenses properly. Nalizar was able to defeat him in the duel, giving himself the rank of tenured professor and demoting Fitch to a tutoring professor. The whole class, including [[Joel Saxon]], who was secretly sitting on the stairs, witnessed Fitch's defeat.
