Technically, I'm thirty one. Overall...like spiritually, I mean...my people were here before humans were. Titans...I am...was a Titan. It's kinda complicated?
Yep. Anyway, I married Pandora, the gods screwed her over for something she was never responsible for, and I stood by her. Cost me my godhood and pretty much any chance at eternal rest, but...here I am. When she passed, I stayed, and when I passed, I returned to the world. I was Harry Houdini for a while, then when I died in '26, I took some time before I came back like I am now. I go by Tommy these days, Tommy Karras.
It's...easier to understand if you know the real story about what happened to Pandora. Long story short: I gave up being a Titan god and I became an avatar of hope. Avatars don't have souls, they're animated by the virtue they carry. I'm an avatar, I have my own life and thoughts, but I also have this soul and all the memories that go with it. It's not me, not really...no more than your heart or your brain is you, it's just something inside that functions to keep you alive.
