xxxxxThomas is a quiet, lonely man. He works night shifts at 7-11 usually, but he can sometimes be found working other shifts. He isn't a local, that's for sure. His accent is clearly Canadian (Western Territories) for those who know what to look for. While he is shy and more then a little odd, he doesn't quite come off as a creeper. He manages to just come off as a bit awkward, and more then a little depressed.
xxxxxWhatever his story is, he is more then he seems. He is very computer savvy, and he spends a lot of time on the internet. Specifically, he deals with something called the Deep (Or Dark) Web. On this cesspool of human existence, anything can be found. Everything from the hacker groups to hired killers to cannibals and serial killers...and worse. Sure, it can also be used for people within tyrannical countries to communicate with the outside world, and for good things. Sure.
xxxxxHis eyes are always tired, and he smells of cheap cologne, lightly dabbed, and stale cigarettes and sometimes even cheap alcohol. He lives in a little apartment. He doesn't like talking about where he is from, and why he is here. He seems constantly tired, and worn down by the boot-heel of life.
xxxxxTommy is not one of those bad people you might expect him to be, however. He doesn't salivate at the possibility of Red Rooms and Cannibal Diaries. He doesn't go onto hidden chat rooms to brag about inhumane experiments or his body count, like so many people in the deepest, darkest recesses of the internet.
xxxxxNo. Tommy murders these people. He takes life. He refuses to feel nothing when he kills. He is not callous or indifferent. This is a misconception people have of the Euthanatos. He forces himself to feel every final breath, to absorb every quake of fear. Some people he relishes killing. Sometimes, when the job is done, he cries for days. He has thrown up more then once after completing an act. He forces himself to feel the life he takes...because to do otherwise would be to accept Death-Taint into his soul, and into his life.
xxxxxTommy is a necessary evil. He hates this fact. He hates himself.
xxxxxBut he hates the monsters out there more.
