Quintus Caecilius Iucundus, son of Caecilius and Metella and brother of Evelina, was a young man living in Pompeii in its final days.
Quintus was more willing than the rest of his family to help the strange foreigner who insisted that nearby Mount Vesuvius was about to erupt and smother Pompeii. Against his parents' express wishes, Quintus guided the Doctor to the house of cult leader Lucius Petrus Dextrus. Later, at the Doctor's instruction, he killed a Pyrovile that appeared in his family's house.
Though he seemed to be a jaded and rebellious youth, performing his religious duties to the family's household gods only under duress, Quintus was secretly concerned for his sister's health. Evelina was suffering from a mysterious ailment due to her inhalation of Pyrovile dust.
