Phoenix Jackson

Phoenix Jackson is the head of the Phoenix Jackson Museum of Curiosities.

Phoenix Jackson was first introduced to the PCs by Adeline Vance, after many of them had already started work for the museum. Phoenix appeared at this time to be a scattered, disorganized aged hippie, described as having "white man dreadlocks" and smelling of a combination of marijuana and patchouli.

Phoenix openly states that the Museum would fall apart without Adeline's help. Once he told the PCs to break into the Rusty Cup Emporium because he knew Patrick Cooper would be out of town, and he thought it would be funny. Phoenix has also sent the PCs to get a Jesus fish from Corbin Bell, and a cursed scalpel from the New Orleans Pharmacy Museum.

Phoenix became Lucius Zann's mentor in his quest to learn magic, training him in the art of Narco-Alchemy. Phoenix set him down this path by "breaking his brain", which is to say, by repeatedly tormenting him by rendering him helpless until he had developed trauma from the experience. Charlotte Odette is his favourite, although it is not clear why.

Although Phoenix is known to be a Narco-Alchemist, Phoenix is on record saying he doesn't "fuck with opiates or sex drugs". Despite this, when The Thespian was being held captive underneath the museum, Phoenix brewed a special work derived from Ambien that put her into a magic coma for approximately two days. On awakening, she had no memory of the last two months. The distinction between this and the drugs that Phoenix objects to is not clear.

Following the events of the Madison King Memorial Website, Phoenix provided Charlotte with access to his van and a quest to get a magic pillow from Chicago. His stated reasoning for this is that he was entertained by the contents of the website.
