Cameos

Qu is the technician and gadget supplier to the History Monks. His devices include many different weapons based on using manipulation of time to kill the enemies. His inventions include a begging bowl/shuriken which explodes about seven seconds after impact with an object, a prayer drum with a hidden knife and garrotte, Exploding Mandala powder, and the emergency portable procrastinators used by Lobsang Ludd and Lu-Tze after the activation of the second Glass Clock.

Character annotations

Qu resembles the armorer at James Bond's "Universal Export", whose code name, oddly enough, is "Q." While Q is often exasperated by Bond's tendency to lose or misuse his inventions, it is the field operatives of the History Monks like Lu-Tze who need to worry about Qu's sometimes temperamental and dangerous devices.
