Tom has been an orphan all of his life. Bouncing from orphanage to orphanage, somehow never landing in a foster home, Tom was getting sick and tired of never having a place to call home. His luck seems to have changed for the better, though, on the day that a mysterious man shows up to take care of Tom, Tom was ecstatic–at first. He quickly learned that this man was not what he seemed. The man, with the help of the orphanage bully, transformed into dragons and attempted to take Tom away from the closest thing he’d ever had to a home. Before the man could take Tom away from Earth, a portal opened, and a teen showed up to rescue Tom. Barely making it out with their lives, the teen introduced himself as Kyle and revealed to Tom that Tom was a dragon. Tom, reeling from this news, initially took some time to adjust to his new almost- dragon life. After a shapeshift attempt and some minor training from the Dragon Keepers, Tom and the Dragon Keeper Cierra tried to steal back the only magical relic that can turn Tom into his true dragon form. But this dragon form was not what Tom expected. Before he could adjust to his new life, Kios attacked the Dragon Keepers’ home. Tom and the Dragon Keepers fought for their home and won, but they had to come to terms with the devastating betrayal that followed their victory. At least Tom–now Tognar–finally had a family and a place to call home.

“Who knows Bob,” John said to the Colonel in a solemn tone. “As far as I am aware, nobody has ever done what we are about to do. Think about it: we are going to put twelve strangers in a bunker one hundred feet underground, and then tell them that all we are going to do is observe their interactions while they perform basic tasks for two weeks. Then we are going to fake a cataclysmic event followed by a complete disconnect for an additional two weeks while we secretly monitor their meltdown from inside. After two weeks of subliminal messaging, and with our guy inside feeding fear into them, they will think World War Three has happened and they are the lone survivors trapped one hundred feet underground. How would you react, Bob?” John asked the Colonel.

Dominick Izzo has been a thorn in the side of Police Command since his first Police Department when he refused to accept the status quo of allowing village officials and police commanding officers to operate with the falsehood that they were above the same law he swore to uphold.

Izzo took on the challenges of the command of all three of the departments he was sworn to serve, never sitting by and watching the politics of the system work against the citizens or the officers who were subject to such corrupt members.
From refusing to sleep with a village official, to exposing the abuses of power of a village mayor and his father to the sacrificing of his career to take on the most corrupt police chief and his actions, Dominick Izzo honored his oath to the Constitution and those he swore to protect.
