== Appearance and Personality ==
Fitch typically dresses in a white vest, shirt, and trousers with the red coat with a militaristic feel, the coat of a full Rithmatic professor{{book ref|Rithmatist|1}}. After he swaps places with Nalizar he wears the grey coat of tutoring professor. Fitch is distraught by this, and he cries himself to sleep that night{{book ref|Rithmatist|5}}. He loves teaching and doesn't mind interruptions by students unless they bother him early in the morning or late at night. Fitch is uncomfortable about dueling, and confrontation in general. As such, it is hard for Fitch to focus and create his defenses properly while dueling.

==== Nalizar's Challenge ====
A few days before the start of summer, Professor Fitch is challenged by [[Andrew Nalizar]]. Initially stunned by the prospect of a duel, Fitch draws an Easton Defence, which he had been teaching the class. It is a poor defense for a one-on-one duel and the stress causes his hands to shake and him to draw an outer circle lopsided. Nalizar is able to defeat him in the duel, giving himself the rank of tenured professor and demoting Fitch to a tutoring professor. The whole class, including Joel Saxon, who is secretly sitting on the stairs, witnesswitnesses Fitch's defeat.{{book ref|Rithmatist|1}}
