[edit] History

Leader of Dragon Army’s C-Toon, Crazy Tom was one of the taller soldiers and very effective at commanding his toon. In Dragon's first battle, for instance, he ordered his toon to flash their legs so that the lights on them wouldn’t glow, in order to make them more difficult to see from “below” in the dim battle room. In recognition of his outstanding performance during Dragon Army's first official battle, he was also given the honor of being the first Dragon to perform the victory ritual of passing through the enemy gate while the other four Toon Leaders pressed their helmets to its corners. Crazy Tom continued to be one of Ender’s most brilliant and effective toon leaders, noticing subtle changes to the rules of the game and ways it was being rigged against Dragon Army (such as the thawing of enemy soldiers, and not of Dragon soldiers, during the Dragon/Badger battle). He was one of the elite graduates selected to be a part of Ender’s “jeesh” at Command School.

[edit] Notes

  • Crazy Tom's nationality is British.
  • Crazy Tom had the unenviable reputation of being the most traded soldier (without actually getting iced) in the history of Battle School.
  • Crazy Tom was notorious for being incapable of working with any commander he believed to be an idiot, reacting to perceived "stupidity" with physically and verbally violent tantrums.
  • Under Ender's superior training and leadership in Dragon Army, however, Crazy Tom ultimately learned to control his temper.
