Thomas

Thomas is the Lord of a small coast-side kingdom and it’s surrounding area, a greatly beloved and trusted leader of his people, especially for his relatively young age. He refused the title of King when he took the throne, wanting to rid their land of the memories of the King before him, his cruel and crazed uncle. He is called Lord Thomas out of respect.

### Relationships

#### \*\*\*

Logan is the prodigy of one of Thomas’s closest friends and chief advisors: Master of Knowledge, Council-member Talyn. As such, Logan lives with them, in a staff’s room at the manor. His job is to learn from Talyn, assist them, and someday, become the next Master of Knowledge. Logan spends a lot of time with Thomas, Talyn, and the rest of the Council, and holds a lot of respect for them, his tutor most of all.

When Patton moved in with his best friend Emile, Emile introduced Patton to their boyfriend (Remy), and Remy introduced Patton to his younger brother (Logan). They immediately became best friends, and Patton started visiting him whenever he had spare time: in between his lessons, going to catch lunch together, etc. He sort of became a regular in the manor halls this way, and (being new to this country) didn’t recognize Thomas as their ruler when he saw him. They would spend some time together while Pat waited for Logan to meet him, and Thomas thought he was adorable and hilarious, so he didn’t say anything to give himself away. Patton had already ‘adopted’ Thomas as his son-friend by the time Logan found out about this and explained who he was. Patton was incredibly embarrassed, but Thomas insisted it was no big deal.

A few years later, they return from a trip with a new guy in tow– Roman! He is quick to introduce himself to literally everyone, and acted properly cordial and professional around Lord Thomas at first, but that quickly spiraled into a goofy sort of brotherly bond when Roman realized Thomas didn’t care so much about regal appearances. Roman found the young Lord bafflingly easy to talk to, and eventually ended up telling Thomas about his true nature (he and Valerie are the only ones who know Roman’s an Angel.) They bond over shared stresses of royalty and weight of responsibilities, and shared love of theatrics and song!

Thomas’s relationship with the three of them is… odd, to say the least. He appreciates the advice they give him, and has a lot in common with each in different ways. The four are very close, and Thomas simultaneously sees them as three of his most dear advisers and mentors, and three ridiculous little brothers he has a responsibility to protect. They, along with the rest of his friends, are the family Thomas chose.

He knew letting the three of them go off on a vaguely-defined adventure alone was probably a bad idea, but Talyn and Joan insisted they needed to get out of the house, and besides, Logan had an assignment from Talyn he couldn’t complete in their city.

Thomas is one of those who receives the whispers so clearly and frequently, he *has* to take medicine, or he’ll get exhausted just from listening to them for a few hours. But, every so often, he’ll skip a dose, to listen in and try and find information on Patton, Logan, and Roman, and make sure they’re okay.

He’s also been using the whispers to try and find someone *else*, but he’s had no luck on them yet…

We have since learned that Virgil is the assassin that saved Thomas' life in the underdark and led him to safety, sacrificing himself at the entrance to one of the cave tunnels to allow Thomas the chance to get away.
