... a fair haired man of about thirty, was handsome in a sleek, well-groomed way... Immaculately combed blonde hair gleamed from the light of the room. The man's eyes were half closed, his legs crossed and pointing at the High Lord.

— The Magicians' Guild

Lord Fergun is of the Warrior discipline and he is weaker than the average magician. He is roughly in his late twenties and is described as attractive with pale neatly combed hair with fine, strong facial features. He claims that as a child he longed to be a soldier, but his parents forced him to attend the Guild.

Fergun was a novice in the guild at the same time as Dannyl. The pair were hostile however, and performed pranks on each other. Fergun maliciously started to spread rumours about Dannyl and an older novice, and claimed the two were romantically involved. This scandal severely tarnished Dannyl's reputation, even as an adult. Fergun continues to hold a hatred towards Dannyl as a magician, and goes so far as to ignore him, or make snide comments.

In The Magicians' Guild, Fergun is struck by a rock when Sonea unleashes her magical powers for the first time. He holds a great disdain towards her, and is furious that the Guild are willing to give the Slum girl a place of study. He attempts to blackmail Sonea by kidnapping her friend Cery. However, his plan fails and his dishonourable plot revealed. He is sent to the Fort as punishment.

He was killed by the female Ichani Avala when the Ichani attacked the Fort. He had been hiding away from the fighting while the attack took place.

Near the Fort there is a rest stop called Fergun's Rest. At the Fort itself, Dannyl reads the list of names of all who had died 10 years previously. He is not sure if Fergun's name deserves to be on it, as he did not die fighting like the rest of the magicians defending the Fort.
