The poll has spoken, so here he is! The poor man who just found out demons are real.
A small confession: This is an old OC of mine that I made for a project that didn't quite pan out. As soon as I made the last option on the poll, I thought to myself, "It would be funny to use him if that one gets chosen." because he was canonically being turned into a werewolf over time, but then I got really attached to the idea of using him again.
The first pic is old art of him, and the second pic is art I did while watching a stream this evening.
So, without further ado, here's a few facts about this 6ft 9 beefy boy.
General Stuff:
-His name is Thomas, never Tommy or Tom, he's pretty firm on that. However, family and close friends are allowed to call him Tommy, but never in public.
-He has a younger sister, Amy, who is still in high school. He coaches her softball team.
-Aside from his sister, the only other family he has is his father, Daryl, who works as a mechanic. They're both pretty stubborn and don't really know how to really openly express their feelings towards one another, but his father would go to the ends of the Earth to ensure his children's happiness.
-Despite his often dour expression, Thomas is an easygoing sort and incredibly compassionate, tending to put others before himself.
-To sum Thomas up in a song, it's that Reba song, I'm A Survivor. In fact that's probably the song he plays in his truck and sings along to.
-He works in a college library, where he's been employed since he was a student there himself.
-His favorite books to read are cheesy romance novels, in particular the kind with the painted Fabio-esque covers.
How it all went to shit:
-He decided to travel abroad and wound up hiking through the woods with some folks and, well, you ever roll up on something you definitely shouldn't have been present for?
Yeah.
But the main issue wasn't him seeing the ghouls hanging around, it was the fact that he could SEE them.
Their glamours don't work on Thomas, at least not completely, so you can imagine how that went.
The church tried messing with his memories/convincing him he didn't see what he saw, but, well, some things just ingrained in your subconscious, and Thomas has had enough experience with being manipulated to see through it easily.
-So, what are they gonna do with him? Good question.
He's currently on a watchlist and being monitored by the church, but, so far, he hasn't let the cat out of the bag, however...
The church has learned some interesting facts about Thomas since taking on their vigil, and, well, I did mention he was supposed to become a werewolf, yeah?
That has definitely piqued the church's interest in him.
Bonus silly fact: He collects Hello Kitty/Sanrio merch, and his favorite color is light pink.
