Omar Thorn

Thorn Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts ― Winston Churchill        Overview Born in the deep south amidst the chaos of the civil rights movement, the former Martin Jones was named after his father's idol - Martin Luther King, Jr. Himself a Baptist minister, Thorn's father was a strict but loving man. Childhood was occasional fraught with danger or the threat of it and Thorn was a small and shy boy. That changed by the time he was entering high school. He grew all at once and with the physical growth came emotional and mental growth. More confident, more collected, more sure of himself. Thorn wanted to be a doctor and he wanted to leave the south for a time. Up north he went to Burlington, Vermont, and the medical school that was there. That's where it all went wrong. He was taken. Kidnapped. The future he had planned stolen from him. The grief wouldn't come until later, until after he had been freed. It was off to The Fray. Never-ending combat and battle. His body molded into some sort of fiery monstrosity to burn and melt his opponents. That's mostly what he remembers from his Durance. Fire and flames. Heat. One day, he was released. Physically, at least. Thrown out, cast aside as something no longer useful, sent to sow his destruction upon the world. But Thorn was determined not to hurt those who didn't deserve it. Five years after his freedom was granted, he joined The Legion of the Iron Wall. One year and one day after that he was a Warmaster. For the past twenty years he has traveled from freehold to freehold, fighting and leading where needed. Preparing and following where needed. He has been a grunt, he has been a Red Victor, he has even been a Wroth General. Service and war is what matters to him, along with a respect he thinks he's earned. His next stop, Fate's Harvest. That might be concerning for the current residents.        RP Hooks Lost An Ogre that was a fire giant in Arcadia. An Ifrit. He fights and he does it well. And with fire. Summer Court. A shining and fiery example of what a member of the Summer Court should be, he is a fierce advocate for strong defense and direct tactics against the threats the Lost face. Warmaster. A member of the Legion of the Iron Wall, he is a military leader and strategist. Other Contract work. Bouncer, security guard, security consultant. He does it all from time to time.        Gallery        Allies, Cohorts, Family, & Friends Ava - Winter Waylady. Cold and galactic. AJ - Summer fox. Almost too fast to catch.
