Father Thomas

Father Thomas, "Worm-Baiter" is a Homid Galliard Bone Gnawer Caern Warder of the Sept of the Awakening.[1]

Biography

Thomas Brown is a big man. He is the oldest of six children, and his alcoholic father abandoned his mother when Thomas was ten. His mother worked two jobs to support her kids, and Thomas was responsible for his siblings. The Change came over him when he saw his younger brother Jeffrey being beaten by a gang. Thomas raged, and he only left two kids as survivors. His mother confronted him afterwards. Thomas tried to tell her, but couldn't. Thomas was released from jail on odd technicalities due to the intervention of Bill Cameron, who brought him to the sept. Thomas now lives in East Potomac Park, and does a lot of fishing, hence his name.

Thomas gained renown with his storytelling ability. Father Thomas is the Warder of the caern, and he is also the leader of the Hood movement to take back the streets. Thomas is responsible for guiding and helping many of the outcasts who come to the caern. Dishonesty is the only sin Thomas won't forgive.

Thomas is respected by all the Garou who come to the caern. As a Galliard, he uses his abilities to help the people who come to the park, and doesn't isolate the caern from the people. Thomas feels that the spiritual energy of the caern is good for the humans as well. He enforces all of the rules of the caern.
