Thomas

“The boys on the island varied, in numbers, according as they get killed and so on; and when they seemed to be growing up, which was against the rules, he thinned them out." Unknown

  NAME: Thomas.
  
  
  A remarkeably human name for a remarkeably unhuman creature, Thomas has suprisingly refrained from having many aliases over the years, unlike his Other kin. However, he's had other names, such as Quayn, Leonardo and Peter.
  
  
  GENDER: Male.
  
  
  Thomas identifies as male, even as a shapeshifter, and his forms are frequently so. However, he doesn't mind shapeshifting into a female once in a while.
  
  
  AGE: Unkown.
  
  
  As one of the Others, Thomas has an impossibly long or even immortal lifespan, and given his tendency to drift through time and space, his age is not known, even by most of his kind. However, he is probably one of the youngest surviving Others. Comparatively.
  
  
  ERA: Anywhere. Anytime. (Likes islands.)
  
  
  As an Other, the barriers of time and space are few and infrequent for him. A talented time traveller, this shapeshifter has caused terrible chaos through the worlds, but even his kind must obey the laws of time. He also takes a while to independently create a Crossing, and he dislikes creating one, given it's when an Other is most vulnerable. Tom tends to make...preparations for the matter.
  
  
  Lately, he's been imprisoned in an island wedged between the worlds, courtesy of an entire country of the Fae. Eventually, he'll escape. And when he does...
  
  
  AURA: Well guarded.
  
  
  He keeps it quite well guarded from aware humans, mages, or supernatural creatures, and a powerful entity would feel very hard pressed to even pinpoint his aura. In that exceedingly rare occasion, one would find nothing but an indistinct, smooth, glamoured hole in reality, hiding the entity's true aura.

  SPECIES: The People. The Folk. The Others.
  
  
  Shapeshifting individuals capable of great and terrible feats, the Others are a group shrouded in myths and legends. Even if the mysterious event of the Fall has reduced The Folk's populations to seven, the survivors, the Others, are incredibly dangerous individuals, capable of bending the barriers of time and space to their will.
  
  
  ACCENT: Variable, usually british english.
  
  
  Thomas' accent is usually some form of cockney , but he occasionally uses a form of Recieved Pronounciation, or even an Estuary English accent. He also occasionally lapses in german, scottish or american accents.
  
  
  RESISTANCES: Mental and magical.
  
  
  Thomas is somewhat resistant to spells, immune to enchantments and bewitching magics, able to see through quite a few illusions, and his mind and aura are all but impenetrable.
  
  
  PERSONALITY: Charming, sweet, brutal, charismatic, manipulative, cheerful. Extraordinarily persuasive.

  Thomas, as a talented shapeshifter and caster of glamours, is capable of transforming into most humanoid or human forms. He's quite whimsical in his transformations, and it usually amuses Tom to look like a boy of vague age ranging from ten to sixteen.
  
  
  With a face that could belong to a (pre) teenaged roman god and golden curls framing it, Tom's favourite appearance is deceptively sweet, with big green eyes, nice cheekbones, and a wide smile to go along with them. The boy's appearance does not belong to the 21st Century. Bernini could have sculpted it.
  
  
  He probably wouldn't have included the part where the smiling lad rips arms off or is very handy with a battleaxe.
