## Personality

Tommy seems to be a man of high pride in himself, but also an opportunist, banding with whoever would give him more opportunities.

## History

### Gravity Star

Tommy was among the Martyrians that first landed on Earth in the Harvester. He was the pilot of the machine, starting the drilling process before the team came to raid him. They came up and threw Gary inside of his Scorcher's eye before Moe Yai used his mech to take off the face plate of the mech. Haze Russ used his mech to grab Tommy by his shirt to intimidate him into joining them. Gary repaired Tommy's faceplate after he joined, and his mech got a Gravity Star-themed redeco.

In Garrison's cafeteria, after Gary wooed Gertrude, Tommy was asked if he liked geckos the same way Gary did, getting him flustered enough to ask Gary why he would ask him that. As a test, Moe made a hologram of a sexy female gecko to tempt him and test his desires. Tommy was so anti-horny that he kicked the hologram, an intangible object, across the room.

On the way to Metran, Tommy was targeted by the Martyrian Army for being a defector. He threw his incendiary grenades at them, only to miss all of them in the vacuum of space. When he did successfully throw one at a Launcher, it melted into dust. Tommy assisted in fighting the Searcher and accompanied the team on Omnibius, but did not do much of note in either scenario.

Tommy accompanied the team on Granaera and participated in the ritual dinner, but did not do much of note there. He assisted in the fight against Ramiel Guntur and his Paralyzer. On Penumbros, Tommy aided the party as more of a sideline fighter, but when they fought the Puppetmaster, Tommy made sure to trap Gary in an empty grenade shell while he was mind-controlled by a rotor, making sure to shake it to try and return him to his senses. Tommy threw an incendiary grenade in just the right spot to completely melt the controls of the Puppetmaster and caused him to be swarmed by his demons.

Tommy did not do much of note on Varuna other than fighting outside of his mech for the first time in the campaign, but did help the team out when they returned to Earth to fight the Annihilator. When they went to Tynkeria to fight the Siren, Tommy and Dewey did heavy damage to her, and Tommy was among those that witnessed Zola's return.

On Sequoia, Tommy helped calm down Sister Dierdre in her Swarmer, but did not do much else of note. Tommy came with the team to Boreo to finally end Octus, particularly helping stealth-kill one of the Enforcers guarding Octus' spire. When it came time to fight Octus, Tommy fought out of his mech once again and tried to help his team win. Tommy armored back up to fight Octus' Centurion and aided in the fight against the Exalted.

After the Exalted's defeat, Tommy joined Gravity Star's new base on Omnibius.

* Tommy's actions during battle were controlled by RottenDoll, though FennekinGalaxy still rolled for the outcomes. Outside of battle he was fully controlled by FennekinGalaxy.
