Thomas Kemp

Thomas Kemp is one of Edgewater's deserters residing at Botanical Labs.
== Background ==
Thomas used to work at Edgewater's Saltuna Cannery where he would closely follow around Parvati Holcomb. He pretended to be eager to learn from her, when in reality his interest in Parvati was mostly romantic.Thomas Kemp, on Parvati Holcomb, Botanical Labs
Whereas the other deserters chose to quit work in hopes of a better life, Thomas was fired due to a lack of skills. When he was barely scraping by alone in the wilderness, he was taken in by Adelaide McDevitt and her fellow deserters, whom he lied to and told that he was a proficient engineer.
