BRIEF HISTORY
Sex. Drugs. Everything in between. Tom, or Thomas as his parents would call him, was born to a loving mother, and a loathing father. His father did not want him in the slightest. The moment he was born, he took off. Maybe not that drastically, but within a few months of knowing that looking after a child was going to be way too much. He had no siblings then, and he has none now. He's an only child, and growing up with one parents means you only have one chain on your shin. He was bound to outcast himself from that small, reckless little home that he had. Confinement, he'd call it. That's what it was to him. He didn't care in the slightest, he was too good for it. He thought so at least. It took him a long time, and a lot of seeking, to find what he truly wanted. Now, he's pretty much regretting everything he's ever done. He wishes that he'd have found what he did sooner, and that he was true about it earlier.
APPEARANCE
He's got very short hair on the back and side, but quite a length on the top with an elegant small quiff that is subtle but quite charming. He has fair blonde hair that is a little dark in most lights except the sun it seems. He stands at quite a medium height of 5"7 and a half. He dresses with a lot of class. He likes to wear smart clothes. His typical appearance being that of quite a rich kid, despite the truth being otherwise. He just has a lot of rich friends due to his nature.
He speaks quite calmingly, but with a handsome, charming attitude. Everything he says can come off seductively if it's said slower, with more passion. The likes of which is only felt in those he lets it be expressed to. That's what he is good at, persuasion; seduction. It's his game, his forte. He's exceptional at getting what he wants because of it. He's a winner, and he walks like one, talks like one and acts like one. All with that subtle element of arrogance that is appealing to the eye and the ear, and sometimes the heart. He never outdoes himself, so everybody knows what to expect.
PERSONALITY
Deep down, he's a sensitive man. He may give off a bulletproof nature, but he is extremely conscious about what people think, and who thinks it. The truth is though, he doesn't actually care what people think; it's his life. It's just he really minds how they go about expressing what they think. Are they telling other people? Do those people not like him now either? It all matters to him in the subtle ways it would with anybody. He got this sensitivity from his mother, whom he's lived with all his life.
His dad was a prick. That's the truth. He left, his mother told him why, and it's not a pretty story. He didn't want Tom at all. It was Tom's fault, in the reality of the matter. His mother told him that during an argument one time, but Tom knew it all along anyway. He doesn't feel guilt for that, because he knows how little of his fault it can really be because he was so young, not even a year old. This makes him resent his father; and he's never had a masculine role in his family so he's had to take it up himself. This gives off that masculine vibe to others when they are around Tom, because he has that element to him.
He is a competitive guy. Tom doesn't like to back down from a challenge. That's why he enlisted in the Peacekeeper program, the one for the young to train early without the constraints of Peacekeeper protocol. He likes to work on himself, his body that is, and because of this he has a generally positive attitude due to all the endorphins that rush around his brain and body. He loves the rush that comes from exercise, not only exercise in the gym; but also the bedroom. Tom is literally a god, and he'd leave the description at that for anybody uninvolved.
HISTORY
When he was young, Tom no longer had a father. His mother never tried to find anybody new, she just decided to grieve for her own little loss as though Tom's father had died. It can't have been a good relationship if one child could break them, but apparently she loved him more than Tom's father loved Tom, because nothing worked. Tom had never, ever asked about his father until he was around five when he started seeing other children with two parents. His mother had to explain it, and Tom took it too well. He didn't realize what he was missing out on, and he never did. His infancy wasn't all too good; He got kicked out of his first primary school at the age of seven, and that was never going to be good news. The next one wasn't good either; but this time he got forced to move because of bullying. The final turned out to be the best. The third bowl, the perfect bowl. He was liked there; and he found a good group of friends. He grew up in that school until secondary, which was just across the road and with the same people; it really was perfect.
That's when he started to go to reapings. Reapings were awful for him; he didn't know whether to be happy or sad that he wasn't chosen. He didn't know who to ask, or who to talk to about it. He was confused, and in his confusion he picked up his own spirits; due to having no father figure, and he decided to become a career. It worked out for a good three years. Ups and down followed, but until the age of fifteen it was smooth in comparison to what followed. He started to get mixed into the grime of the district. The dirty, messed up kids who would commit crimes and cause trouble. Gangs, drugs and sex. All of it in abundance. By the age of seventeen, he had seen, and done, it all.
It came down to one night when he and the gang he was trying so hard to fit into, got caught. The Peacekeepers came in through the windows, the doors and smoke filled the rooms. He and his friends couldn't have escaped even if they tried. Each and every one of them was about to be sentenced; but the Peacekeepers decided to enforce in a different way for a change. They decided that each would be assigned to unique mentorship programs at the Peacekeeper Academy to eventually be fully brainwashed, perfectly, into the best killing machines.
And that is where he is now; starting a life of change.
