Thane

Biography
Thane is a brilliant engineer and fancies himself Haydez' right hand man. It's simply unfortunate that Haydez is unaware of this percieved role. In truth, Thane is just one of many dozens of valued engineers, from a vast collection of the finest minds the Academy ever trained. He's smart and good at his job, but nowhere near as much as he believes himself to be. Recently, his powers have caused him to destroy sensetive equipment, earning him a spot on Cysafaz ' Night Watch, as a way of keeping him out of trouble.

Personality
Thane takes arrogance and self-importance to new heights. He is eager to prove himself superior to his peers (and even his betters) which will often cause him to question authority or be abrasive. The irony is that if he were to calm down and apply himself, he might easily earn the respect and notice he craves, granting him a spot at Haydez ' side.

Powers
Thane has the ability to disburse his molecules into a dark cloud, allowing anything to harmlessly pass through his billowy form. He can control this form completely, and use it to fly, enter the smallest of cracks or for other, more offensive, combat functions. Additionally he can affect any object that he touches, such as his clothing or weapons, causing them to reform unharmed. The moment he releases an object from his control, it instantly reverts back to its solid state. The maximum amount of mass that he can use this ability on seems to be equal to his own body mass.

Equipment
Thane has been shown to have the ability to create objects from "The Cloud", and has recently been seen weilding a Scythe.

Derivation
Thane is an original character created as part of the Book 1 pre-order event. His abilities and use of a Scythe are remarkably similar to many depictions of the 'Reaper' and as such may be derived from the Greek God of death Thanatos
