Twoflower is a character in the Discworld books - an actuary from the Agatean Empire, located on the “Counterweight Continent” on the opposite side of the Disc from Ankh-Morpork. He appears as the secondary protagonist in the first two novels, where he is the Disc’s first tourist, visiting Ankh-Morpork hoping to see real barbarian heroes and tavern brawls. He brings with him his magical Luggage, which he eventually gives to Rincewind when he returns home. He only appears once more, in Interesting Times, where the consequences of his holiday are revealed.
