## Biography

### Early life (1959-1973)

Michael Nicholas Thompson was born on 11 May, 1959 into an English family of considerable wealth. He was born in a rich village in City of Oxford, England. Both his parents were young. They died under normal circumstances between 2013 and 2014. Because of the wealth, Michael's parents pampered him a great deal. He grew to be proud, but a good person.

He moved to Hammington with his parents in 1964 to attend Mount Vincent Primary School.

### Primary school years (1965-1973)

Michael started his first year at Mount Vincent Primary School in 1965. While there, he befriended many people, most notable; Sam Mitchell, Ronald Marker and Vincent Grey.

Though more mischievous than diligent, Michael was a clever student. For the vast majority of his time at school, he was somewhat an obnoxious youth, with a love of showing off and exceptional self-confidence that bordered on arrogance.

Michael spent the majority of his academic career chasing after Sarah Watson, an attractive fellow classmate whom he called by her surname. Sarah was perhaps the only student in the school who was completely unimpressed by Michael, considering him arrogant and obnoxious.

### High school years (1974-1979)

Michael attended St. George's College in 1974. He began to mature and became much less obnoxious and arrogant. Especially when he encountered Asolas and his Sathrons, the Sathrons then abducted his friend Ronald Marker, in which he knew for nine years.

Michael, alongside his best friend Sam Mitchell joined the Lux to find Ronald Marker and destroy Asolas. By his tenth year, Michael had become very mature and starting dating Sarah Watson properly. They fell in love and lasted a relationship.

### Abduction

On the 2nd of January, 1974, Ronald Marker was abducted by Sathrons and held captive for 10 years in a cell in the Bareid. He was declared dead and was made a funeral. But nobody except the ghosts knew he was alive. Everyone thought he was dead but Michael searched everywhere for him. Ron learnt the layout of the city and escaped a few times but was always caught and put back into his cell. Over the ten years, all he had to eat was raw meat. His body started to mutate into Sathron-like physical characteristics like sharp teeth, bloodshot eyes, scarred body. He almost starved to death until he ate his own arm. In 1984, the Lux Republic attacked the Bareid and Michael found Ron held captive in a cell. Ron helped Michael escape but had to sacrifice himself in order for them to get out.

### The First Ghost War (1975-1984)

#### Order

After graduation, in 1975, he and Sam started up a planned attack on the Bareid on Suezeus. Over the year, the Lux had two hundred men. They battled out Sathrons on Suezeus and came out in a draw.

For almost ten years, more wars occurred between the ghosts and the Lux. In 1984, Michael trapped Asolas in the Ex-Void. The battles came to a pause because the ghosts went into hiding. Nine years later, in 1990, at thirty-one years old, Michael married Sarah Watson and Sam Mitchell served as their best man at the wedding. Michael then retired from the Lux Republic organisation due to inactivity and he believed it was impossible for Asolas to escape.

### The Black Curse

In early 1976, Michael discovered the Black Crown of Lord Kritias on Shron. Without hesitation he took the crown. He was then cursed causing extreme pain. He had hallucinations of the Aala'rak and their artefacts, including the Memory Seals and the Cube of Wisdom. Knowing the whereabouts of the memory seals, Michael planned to find them with his friends. Because of the Black Curse, he had to take medication to reduce the effects and prevent him from dying for the rest of his life.

### The Keys of Aala'rak

In mid-1976, Michael and his friends Sam Mitchell and Bernard Henderson searched for the artefacts of the Aala'rak. The Memory Seals were eventually found by Michael in a tomb on Earth. They were empty, Bernard and Sam insisted that Michael were to keep them and use them. Michael started creating information and memories in the six Memory Seals up until his death in 2004.

### Retirement

Michael retired his job as an Alpha and became an astrobiologist that worked for NASA and the Lux. He also created a foundation to search for a cure for the Black Curse because he knew the curse would carry down to his descendants.

#### Death

Sarah became pregnant in 1999. On 20 September, 2000, Sarah gave birth to their son Thomas Jordan Thompson. Four years later on 3 August, 2004, Asolas escaped the Ex-Void.

The next day, When Asolas arrived at Mount Vincent on 4 August, 2004. Michael was surprised and shocked when Asolas arrived at his doorstep. The young Tom was told that they were being robbed so he hid in a cupboard. Asolas murdered him and Sarah. Asolas then proceeded upstairs so he try and find his Sword of Adeisus, but he didn't.

Both his parents attended his funeral, they died around nine years later.

## Physical appearance

Michael was a tall, muscly man with grey eyes and spiky blonde hair that stuck up at the front. During his school years, he had an indefinable air of having been well cared for and even adored.

His son, Tom Thompson, was constantly noted to look very much like him, having the same hair and body.

## Personality and traits

Michael was a clever and talented man, but very mischievous in his early youth. He was also proud and could be boastful. However, even in this stage of arrogance, he still displayed some positive qualities of character.

Michael ultimately matured and changed his ways; he lost all of his arrogance. He become enough of a responsible student and leader to be a faction leader in his final year, and later the founder and leader of Alpha I. Though he never completely lost his rebellious side, it was clear Michael had left school a far better person than he had been upon entering it.

His best quality was his willingness to sacrifice himself for his friends and family, as demonstrated many times during The First Ghost War.
