[QUOTE="yzard, post: 5059754, member: 85974"] Hey, DF. Thanks for getting this rolling. EDIT: Updated with a bit of background. [sblock=Thom's background] Born in Proper, Thom was always fascinated with the arcane arts. His father had been an accountant of sorts, selling his services to local businesses and royalty alike. Being raised by an accountant (and expected to follow his father) he was taught early on the power of formulas and figures. But he took a very different path when he entered his teen years. Though his father's lessons about the purity of established mathematics became part of who he was, he took that idea in a different direction and began to study the arcane arts. He brought to his studies an analytic mind and a confidence that solutions to problems CAN be found if one has enough data and the proper mental tools. Thom is a studious wizard that enjoys books more than people. Though he gets along well enough with most, he just doesn't give much thought to the social graces. Problems are more fascinating (and sometimes people ARE the problem!) and he can get very focused on solving them to the exclusion of all else. Ever since his father's death (from fever), Thom has unknowingly been even more engrossed in his learning. Deep down, he is positive that had his father spent his considerable mental prowess in other areas of learning he would have been able to avoid death from such a common ailment.
