History
After leaving the Northeast, Tomblain joined up with a theater troupe called The Cockticklers, with whom he traveled from town to town performing family-friendly plays as well as Murder Plays. He ran away from home because he fell in love with a milkmaid named Rhiannon.
Tomblain later went into Shrike as a spy posing as Hank, a guard at the Dark Palace, spying on the Dark Lord.
Tomblain switched to becoming Eliza Parts, the Baron's new girlfriend, after shoving the Baroness of Shrike out a window into lava and killing her. She was a peasant until the Baron ennobled her and she became Lady Parts. To get out of this character, Tomblain assumed the role of a series of bats and it was explained to the Baron that Lady Parts ran away to the woods excited about having intercourse with him but distraught and confused.
Tomblain then developed a nine-bat show about being a series of bats, with performances in McShingleshane Forest and previews in The Smouldering Widow. Tomblain advertised the show as a sponsor from Hello From the Magic Tavern, it appears it was not successful.
Tomblain appeared on an episode of Gettin' Nuts with the acorn he was fucking because he mistakenly thought the show was named "Fuckin' Nuts."
In his next appearance he returned as part of the book tour for his seven-part self-help/autobiography "Think You Can't Change Your Life? I Bet You Can" (with "bet" pronounced as "bat"). He now plans to kill his sister and take his rightful place on the throne from his mother.

- Albain Belaroth, his father and the deceased king of the Northeast Kingdom
- Titania Belaroth, his mother and queen of the Northeast Kingdom
- Trachea-Aurelia Belaroth, his sister and princess of the Northeast Kingdom, who wants him dead to keep him out of the line of succession for the throne. She (along with court eunuch Benedict Whisperbrew) now knows that Tom the Traveler is her really her brother.
