Bio:
Pemulis, a working class kid from a Southie family, is Hal's best friend. Pemulis is a prankster and the school's resident drug procurer. He is also a mathematical genius. This, combined with his limited but ultraprecise lobbing, made him the school's first Eschaton master. (Eschaton, a computer-aided turn-based nuclear wargame, requires that players be adept both at matters of game theory and at pegging targets with tennis balls.) Pemulis is thus the archetypal Eschaton player. Although the novel takes place long after Pemulis' Eschaton days (the game is played by twelve- to fourteen-year-olds), Pemulis is still regarded as the game's all-time great, and a final court of appeal in game matters. It's worth noting that he's very adept at the art of revenge–no one ever calls him Penis-less anymore. Also has a brother among the Boston Drag Queens who was repeatedly anally raped by their father in Allston.
