Play By - David Oakes
Immediate Family Members -
Father: Bryant de Lac
Mother: Veronica St. Claire
Younger Brother: Laurence de Lac
Youngest Brother: Geoffrey de Lac
Personality
Thomas is a reserved and taciturn man, only choosing to talk when he deems it necessary or when he is truly comfortable with someone. Although he may not be so talkative, he is quite friendly and gives his all to friendships with someone. If someone has his affection/favor, he will be generous, caring and loyal towards them, often putting their needs ahead of himself. He has the desire for people to like him and can be anxious about whether or not he has done something wrong.
One of his greatest loves is sword fighting. He has practiced every day, for many hours and years to hone his skills and to be one of the best fighters possible for his house and family. While his House is known for their powerful ships, he prefers to be a useful and powerful vessel himself. One can often get on his good side by challenging him to a duel and training with him.
As he is an active man, he has a powerful appetite and thus he pays attention to the food he eats. He makes it a point to remember the names of dishes so he can request them later and befriends the cooks and kitchen staff to ensure a good meal. Having cooks in his favor is very useful!
His relationship to his younger brothers is a close one and he treats them with respect, trusting them to help him with his problems, and always lends an open ear to them. He wants them to be happy as well and will often look for possibilities for them to achieve their goals.
Although he never speaks of it, Thomas has no experience with women and yet would love a wife and family of his owns. He is a secret romantic and would devote himself to a woman with no question or hesitation if he had the chance.
History
Thomas was the first son born to Bryant de Lac and Veronica St. Claire. When his younger brothers were born as well, Thomas took the role of older brother to heart and looked after them. Not only did he ensure that they were doing their duty, but also that they had fun as well.
Ever since he was younger, he became interested in the art of swordfighting and preferred that to building ships. He expressed his desire to his father and started with a swordfighting instructor every day. A fire lit inside him and he practiced every day, increasing the intensity of his training sessions over the following years. He duelled with whoever he could in order to increase his skill and encouraged his younger brothers to start swordfighting as well so they could fight together.
In addition to his swordfighting, his father also had him trained in the shipwright business and managing finances. He took to the economics more favorably than dealing with ships and fishing vessels, although he did his best to please his father. All he could think of was becoming a knight and protecting his house and country, which is what he started to work towards.
Now that he is older and of a suitable marrying age, he hopes to find a wife and start a family of his own. He is a shy individual and knows that an arranged marriage is inevitable and probably better for him given his inexperience with women, though he hopes to find a good choice for a wife and alliance on his own.
RP Sample
A sword swung to the left in a harsh arc. Thomas blocked it with a clang of his own sword and pushed it back with some of his strength. With a step back, he thrust with equal force and the side of his sword scraped the edge of his opponent's shirt.
His opponent, one of the squires, stood back and declared Thomas to be the winner. Thomas shook hands with the other man with a smile, complimenting him for a decent fight. Their duels were one of the highlights of his week and he was genuinely glad to have them.
They parted ways and he decided to head back to his room in order to wipe some of the sweat that had collected on his back. He had an hour free and now that he was done with his intense training, he could just walk and relax. The weather was decent enough for him to head through the trees next to the house and he looked up at the leaves. The sun shining through the leaves was beautiful, relaxing him, and he sighed as he stretched his arms over his head.
With a hand to brush the sweaty hair off his neck, he wiped the dampness on his trouser leg and wished that he had someone with which to share this moment. In one of his fantasies, he imagined himself walking alongside a woman who enjoyed his company and held his hand. They would talk of activities they liked to do and their future -- under a flowering tree, he'd ask her to be his wife. All the plans without the courage to impliment them. He needed to gather his courage and get out there, meet some women and with any luck, hold a conversation with them without sounding like an idiot. First time for everything.
