Personality:It's pretty obvious that Thomas is a person of impartialness. He always seeks for a balance in his social and private life. He prefers to work by himself, and enjoys moments of solitude to comprise his ideas together, to reflect upon himself and simply to recharge from his social life. But overdoing it would mean isolation, and that would not do with him. He would easily get cynical and suspicious of people around him when it happens.
The same goes with socialization. Thomas is aware of the emptiness that comes in his moments of solitude, so he would usually reach out to his friends, loved ones to satisfy his social life. Whether it is just a cup of coffee or at a dance party (even if he can't dance), he does not shy away from those activities when he needs it. But doing too much, and it would tire him out. And it will cause him great frustration and irritation. Those are the two areas that anyone who wishes to walk along with him in his path should know and avoid. And not many people can find the perfect middle point. Some nurses who took care of him before had gotten into conflicts with him because they breach into either those two zones. That is why getting into a close relationship with him proves a little difficult.
When well-balanced, however, Thomas can be a charming, gentle and funny gentleman. A passionate man to his work, and compassionate to people going through hard times, and is very aware of the preciousness of life itself, as he had been through a rough childhood time. He can be the light to the party that he goes to, or the light that shines through the realms of technology and science, given that you give and respect the variables it takes for him to get there.
Background:His early life has been far from being harsh. He grew up in a wealthy and intellectual family. His parents were successful financial investors in America, and was wealthy enough to ensure a thorough pursuit of knowledge to him and his two sisters. His oldest sister is a criminologist who had a PhD in victimology, now currently doing her research at a large institute. His other sister is a qualified doctor at a hospital.
From primary to middle school, he attended prestigious schools and proved to be quite a mind. He isn't at the top of the class, 'thanks to' the poor and counter-productive teaching method, but some of the kids looked up at Thomas for his quick perception, non-linear learning style and the ability to think up of unusual concepts.
The first giant rock standing in his life path is the faithful accident when he was only fifteen. He was on a visit to France, particularly he was on a hot-air balloon, flying around the countryside. The balloon, for some technical reasons, crashed onto the ground, along with Thomas and a few other passengers. While the passengers had a varying degree of injuries, Thomas took the worst of it. The height of the crash was not too high, but it caused a serious leg injury. Severe enough that it completely robbed him of the ability to use the legs forever.
His life took an abrupt turn in a span of just a few minutes. The accident really took his toll on him, both physically and mentally. From a well-abled person, he is now handicapped, and must rely on the use of his wheelchair to move around. That really was a lot of stuff placed on the shoulder of a fifteen years old. He had to go through tons of physical examination, in a hospital environment that could be really isolating. He initially was very depressed over the incident, and once thought that he may never make it through.
But he did.
All the medication, the examination and treatment eventually came to an end, and he was discharged. Knowing that the neighborhood the Lancaster family was living in doesn't really support handicapped people, they had Thomas move to Sol City. Initially, his parent moved there with him, but then left, due to several personal issues, leaving him a personal nurse to tend for him whenever he needs it. There, the money he was supported from the accident, combined with the assistance from his family, he is able to finish his general education and university. Life got a lot better for him, and when he was eighteen, he attended university. The first year of his life there was relatively easy for him, so he could easily get lonely with his work. As a result, he developed a social habit, to hang out with friends and join various clubs that suit his interests. The only club he found passion in was the Robotic Club, in which he stayed for a few years until his doctoral years.
After university, he was given a pass to the PhD program where he studied, in which he chooses Artificial Intelligence as a subject for his graduate work. He is now into his third year of doctoral studies, and is working on a thesis about the consciousness of robots
