Annotation
This character is named after a real person. In 2002, a flood destroyed Divadlo v Dlouhé, a theater in Prague, Czech Republic, which plays dramatizations of Terry Pratchett's novels. Terry Pratchett then suggested a benefit auction for reconstruction of the theater and Ladislav Pelc donated the highest sum in the auction.
