Untouched by the ravages that time would have wrought, Thomas looks as old as he was on the day he ceased to be human. He is of above average height, standing at a good six feet. His hair is dark as the raven's feathers. Thomas often utilizes his obsidian eyes to intimidate, usually as a follow up to some curse. A mage, he often dresses in robes, yet his are ragged like a poor man's clothes and he is often found to be barefoot.

Though youthful and lively in appearance, Thomas clearly exhibits the bearing and wisdom of a much older being. He is studious and intelligent; having had a very long time to bring his magic up to a potent standard. Thomas is quite the fanatic, being devoted to Verena in earnest. He is sadistic generally enjoying the thought of visiting chaos and destruction upon Ciryatan. He derives pleasure from this, which only serves as motivation to commit more such acts. Despite all this, however, he is not cruel and only those who stand in his way fall victim to his schemes.

Born to a lawyer and an artist in the bustling capital of Van'ostgar in ages long past. Few records of Thomas' early life remain, though when asked he often speaks fondly of his youth. Thomas was no rebellious child, following his parents' rules and regulations to the letter. He got on quite well with his siblings and cooperated with them in a cordial fashion, teaching them to read and write. Lawful and driven like his father, he ultimately proved to be more interested in art, forgoing law in favor thereof. It was in taking up the brush that he unlocked his childhood talents and under the patient, careful tutoring of his mother he proved to excel at it.

It was after the manifestation of magical abilities that all this would come down. He was sent to the tower at the age ten, an apprentice at age seventeen. It was on that day that he fell in line with the wrong crowd. Thomas rebelled as he had never done - it was almost as if he was making up for the lost years by being twice as difficult to discipline. In secrecy he read and taught himself all that was forbidden, together with a faithful cabal of friends he left the Tower and scoured the land in search of ever darker material. Thomas did so discretely, unwilling to allow any to bear news back to his parents of his acts.

Ultimately it would be Thomas who seduced his friends into worshipping Verena, goddess of corruption. Together with his fellow cultists he brought sacrifices to their new deity. Often these were human, but these orgies of blood were not exclusively so. Elves were brought to the altar in equal measure, as well as fae. It did not take long for his cult to grow out of proportion and for conspiracies against him to form. By the time he realized as such, it was too late.

Slain during the night by his closest confidante and lover, a female fae whose name is long since forgotten, Thomas was forced to decide upon servitude or eternal damnation. He decided upon the former and has wandered Ciryatan as a demon ever since.
