The Big Thorn heads the Disturbing Acts of Violence Department as a whole and also specifically looks after DAVD's Action Division. He is one of the Firstborn; his rarely-used proper name is Thornelius Archimedes III.[1]

Personality

He is lenient with his agents when it comes to rules about staying in-fic for the full observation period; they are dealing with disturbing acts of violence.[2] However, he doesn't put up with intradepartmental squabbling instigated by his fractious division heads.[1] He dislikes Quiddich, and seems to be a regular at the Chlorophyll Club.[3]

Office

The Thorn's office, located in the basement of HQ with the rest of the DAVD, is painted red and black.[4]

He either doesn't like or doesn't have access to the kind of computer technology available to other departments, judging by the physical paper-and-cabinets filing system used in DAVD(i). They even have overflow storage somewhere in Siberia.[5]

History

The Big Thorn is one of the Firstborn; he Awoke in the second pulse of radiation to hit Origin, and engaged in mind-altering communion with the other Firstborn before the invention of language.[6] He took his full name, Thornelius Archimedes III, in response to early explorations on Origin,[7] and was promptly nicknamed 'the Big Thorn' by the Marquis de Sod.[7]
