Thomas is a playable character from Unlimited Saga. He is the husband of Rebecca and father to Judy, Marie and Roy.
Scenario Appearances
- Ventus's Scenario: Playable Character; he joins Ventus during a carrier mission to Sadovos.
- Judy's Scenario: Playable Character; he joins the party early, but leaves soon thereafter, only to rejoin near the end of the story.
Character
Thomas is a middle-aged family man of medium height and build. He wears loose-fitting blue and white clothing that seems to be fit for traveling more than for defense. He has short, dark hair, unlike his wife and daughters. He keeps his facial hair shaved into a Van Dyck beard with the mustache and goatee left unconnected.
He seems to have a laid-back attitude, as accentuated by speaking slowly with a southern drawl. His primary concerns in life seem to be the well-being and happiness of his wife and children, whom he loves dearly. He is a brave, willing to risk his life to save his family from harm. His voice only seems to become excited when his family is in danger.
Story
Before the events of the game, Thomas married Rebecca, a powerful witch said to be the second coming of the great witch Alyce Ambrosia. Thomas himself, however, had no magical capabilities, and thus his relationship with Rebecca was looked down upon by her father, Josef.
Thomas and Rebecca settled in Sadovos with Rebecca's father, and the couple had three children: Roy, Marie, and Judy. All three of their children were gifted with magical ability like their mother. While Josef still did not fully approve of Rebecca's marriage to Thomas, he at least accepted him as his son-in-law and loved the grandchildren Thomas gave him.
When the game begins, Clyde Blackstorm visits Thomas's family's home to visit Josef with intent of finding a particular forbidden magic spell by any means necessary. When Clyde attacks Josef, trapping him in a mirror, Josef's safety mechanism is triggered, teleporting everyone around far away.
Because the safety mechanism teleports people farther away the stronger their magical powers are, Thomas is sent only to Serin, a nearby hamlet. The only family member who is closer after the mechanism teleports them is his 10-year-old daughter Judy who has still not begun to study magic extensively due to her young age, despite her natural gift for potential magic capabilities.
Not long after the teleport, Judy sets out to find the rest of her family. Accompanied by her new bodyguard Kurt, Judy meets up with Thomas in Serin.
As the journey to find the rest of the family members continues, the group journeys across the Vale of Swords following the directions given by Judy's Crystal Hoop. When the group is about to cross a bridge, one of Clyde's minions appears and summons a hoard of Pinhut Titus. Everyone defeats the monsters, but as they are crossing the bridge, more of the enemies appear. Thomas tells Judy to continue across the bridge and let him handle the monsters. Judy obeys her father; Thomas stays behind to fight the demons on his own.
After Judy and the others have safely crossed the bridge, it breaks, leaving Thomas to plummet to the bottom of the Vale. Judy continues on, confident that her father will make it out of the Vale alive.
As Judy continues her quest to reassemble her family, Thomas recovers from his fall into the Vale and returns to his home in Sadovos. After Judy finds the rest of her family members and rescues her mother from Clyde, she returns home where she finds her father once again. Thomas joins back up with his reuinted family and suggests rescuing Josef by going through Deities’ Table.
Thomas continues to journey with his family, eventually confronting Clyde and fighting Chaos to save Josef.
An alternate version to Thomas's story is available if the player character is Venuts instead of Judy. When Venuts travels to the Vale of Swords, he may find Thomas where he fell after his battle with Clyde's minions. If Thomas joins Ventus, he will be suffering from amnesia, and can only remember that he is "someone's daddy."
Battle
Thomas has very high Strength and Skill making, making him quite skilled in any type of physical combat, both weapon and melee. He is one of very few characters who are recruited with access to a gun.
Despite his Fire making of 4, his other elemental makings and his Magic making are very low, giving him almost no magical capabilities, fitting his story.
Despite his 19 LP, his Endurance and Spirit making are quite low, so he is not always best-suited for front-line combat. His true strength lies in dealing heavy HP and LP damage from the second or back row. This also means his Toughness growth panel does not serve much purpose and can be overwritten easily.
Thomas's initial parameters and equipment make him a very well-rounded physical fighter immediately after being recruited. His high Skill making combined and initial Gun Arts growth panel make him an excellent marksman early in the game, able to deal LP damage. He also begins with an Axe Arts panel at level 2, giving him early access to a powerful weapon that can deal a lot of HP damage. He also begins with a Throw panel, allowing him to successfully perform martial arts that can stun opponents.

Trivia
- Thomas is one of the only characters that will actually leave the party after joining. His leave is not permanent; he returns near the end of Judy's scenario.
- Many of Thomas's voice clips change meaning depending on whether he is recruited in Judy or Ventus's scenario; for example, his forgetful quotes play into his casual personality in Judy's scenario, while they play into his amnesia in Ventus's scenario.
- Thomas is one of very few characters to begin the game with a gun, a significant weapon as they are extremely rare to find otherwise and cannot be created by forging like other weapons.
