[2] This story also reveals that Thomas is part of a secret organization called the Venatori. But I still couldn't tell ya exactly what relationship 'demons,' as Harry terms them, have with the Fallen.
Turn Coat is a turning point of sorts for Thomas, who is kidnapped by a Native American skinwalker who attempts to bargain for Morgan using Thomas' life. In this world, Harry Dresden is the first wizard who works as a consulting wizard, taking cases from humans and supernatural clients both. Maybe after Lucifer fell and God threw him into hell, which was already occupied, Lucifer just shows up, explodes the biggest demon lord around, and says "You all work for me now". The first two books would lead on to believe that there'd be more demons in the series, but we get a ton of Vampires in three and a half flavors, lots of Sidhe, two handfuls of Denarians, Outsiders from beyond space-time, and a few miscellaneous beings here and there, but only two onscreen demons and a few mentions of off screen demons. He possesses a sort of glamor that creates a strong sexual attraction to him in both men and women, and even led to him being attacked by a Jehovah's Witness. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Thomas_Raith&oldid=981087046, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, This page was last edited on 30 September 2020, at 06:02. Thomas is then nearly sacrificed by his father in a ritual meant to kill Harry, but Harry and Karrin Murphy intervene in time to save him. As someone who has lived a life of wealth and privilege, Thomas has not been shown to have any deep skills of his own, getting by on his vampiric aptitude and charm much of the time. White Court vampires are apparently extremely long-lived; Thomas' father has lived centuries. If you loved the magic and mystery in this series, you must be wanting to read more books like The Dresden Files. Once Harry tracks him down, however, he discovers that Thomas has been taking women who are being targeted by the White Court to safe houses, protecting them. Once again, his father's presence had been requested, and Thomas was sent as an insult. Rakshasa, Asura, and Bhutas in Hinduism along with a number of other things are given the catchall term "demon" in English translations to refer to them as malevolent spirits as a whole.
Thomas helps Harry to find and confront the real killers, and helps him fight off an army of ghouls summoned by Cowl. A White Court vampire that cannot feed their demon is scarcely much more than a human being. A group by that name, properly the "Venatori Umbrorum", were previously mentioned in the series, described by Harry Dresden as "like the masons, but with machine guns." Thralldom, mental slavery, domination, seduction are all within the purview of the White Court. The vampires of House Raith feed off people's emotional energy in the form of lust, usually through sex, and this act can result in death of the hapless mortal. At the end of the novel White Night, it is revealed that Thomas has learned to "sip" and satiate his hunger without harming his female hairstyling clients (although he notes that they may be slightly addicted to the experience). By the end, he seems to have gotten over this temptation. A side effect noted throughout the series is that when White Court vampires do draw on their demon, their eyes start to glow and their skin will seem more pale. However, somehow he held back, and they both managed to survive, although Justine was greatly weakened. Like his brother, he is a monogamist at heart, and tries to keep his seductiveness in check. The White Court can exert incredible mental control over mortals, to the point of being able to incapacitate them completely.
Perhaps because of his highly dysfunctional family, he also likes Harry from the very moment he meets him. Battle Ground confirms that he attacked Etri because his girlfriend Justine had been possessed by Nemesis, also known as He Who Walks Beside, and Nemesis had threatened to kill both Justine and their unborn child if he did not slay Etri. However, in Changes, it is stated by Bob that without the human element of the White Court individual, their demon cannot act and is trapped, rendering the person an effective vegetable.
In the case of others, he can be rather brutally blunt, such as describing Butters as a coward and advising Harry that the nervous coroner would only endanger him. Thomas teams up with Harry and company for the final battle at Chichen Itza to help save Harry's daughter (his niece), Maggie (totally excusable because if the Ritual goes through, he will be killed as well as Harry). In Changes, Thomas has returned to feeding his vampiric nature, taking "large bites" instead of "nibbling". Thomas has much the same overall appearance as Harry—both are tall, with long faces and strong jaws. if you liked the Inheritance Cycle you can take a look at this list of books like Eragon, the popular series by Christopher Paolini. He loved her, and after receiving a near fatal injury, he fed on Justine to the point where she should have died. Thomas is also a massive slob: he lives almost exclusively on beer and microwave meals, and leaves the private rooms of his chic apartment an undecorated mess.
Are we dealing with a case of an unreliable narrator? Like all White Court vampires, Thomas is not harmed by religious items, sunlight or garlic. The problem I have is that sometimes, like with Chauncy, for example, 'demons' and actual fallen angels are lumped together as being part of the same organization.

Seems like a bit of a tease actually. He blames himself for Harry being on the Water Beetle when he died and believes he could have done something to stop it had he been there. My impression of the fallen angels and Lucifer in Dresdenverse is that they are fighting the same battle (ie against the outsiders and old gods) but they are okay manipulating free will to do it. Given the All Myths Are True setup of the Dresden Files, it's entirely possible that "demons" is a very broad category, like "cats" or "horses", and the Fallen are a very specific subsect that have a lot of dominating authority and mindshare because of their mixture of power and the spread of their folklore via the Church. He also tends to rely on outside weaponry such as a sawed-off shotgun and a Desert Eagle pistol, but he is capable of great speed and strength when he is sufficiently fed. He is briefly reunited with Justine, who has recovered somewhat from her draining and is now in a position to give him inside information on the White Court's plotting. When his sister Lara takes control of the Raith family, she is forced to exile Thomas from his family, to continue the illusion that their father is still in control.

As Dresden says in one the first books, they are often considered to be one group but they are not. Moreover, the true love she displayed for Thomas means that he can no longer touch her skin without suffering severe burns and blistering. He ends up betraying Harry to save Justine, but helps him and Michael later, after Justine is kidnapped by Bianca. The skeleton of the story has long been planned. Atticus O’Sullivan runs a bookshop in which he sells occult content while hunting as a shapeshifter. He can shoot like the best of mortal marksmen without practicing, wield weapons like a master, and perform superhuman stunts of agility without difficulty (all of which is quite irritating to Harry).

Thomas is repeatedly tempted by the Denarians throughout the book, since they could allow him to reunite with Justine, and Harry does his best to help his brother overcome these temptations since he knows more of the Denarians' natures. In his own story seen through his eyes, Thomas reveals more of himself, showing how deeply his demon influences his choices, possibly increased due to his new "vegetarian" diet. The cells torment him mentally, but he is alive and safe nonetheless. He is caught attempting to kill Etri, King of the Svartalfar. Harry, having no other family, welcomes Thomas into his apartment. Though this would allow him to live in wealth and luxury, Thomas seems uninterested in leaving the new life he has made for himself. Required fields are marked *. We hope you enjoy this list as much as we enjoyed putting it together for you. It is later revealed that the White Court is heavily involved in the pornography industry, and that Thomas is attempting to take power from his father, the king of the White Court. He is immensely charming and apparently immune to verbal barbs. It is stated that the love must be reciprocal for it to harm a White Court vampire.
