Fr. Thomas Telarius is a highly trained and skilled priest. Fr. Thomas was trained at the University of Bologna, earning his Doctor of Arts and the right to teach anywhere in Christendom. During a stint back in his homeland of Cambridge, England, he was discovered to be Gifted by the Jerbiton magi of Schola Pythagoranis and offered a chance to join the Order. He was enrolled in House Ex Miscellanea, though Edward of Milton -- his Hermetic sponsor -- is working to have him join House Jerbiton.

Fr. Thomas is trained in the magic of the Mathematici of Bologna as a Learned (Natural) Magician. His approach to magic is to view the world as a series of secrets placed by God and requiring education and special knowledge to unlock it.

He is a devout Christian and is responsible for the founding of the chapel outside Nova Semitae. St. Catherine of Alexandria was a saint he ran across during his studies and is a saint he is personally devoted to. Using his contacts, he arranged for a curate to handle his duties, as his education occupies a great deal of his time. Fortunately for him, House Jerbiton has some pull with the local bishop who was willing to allow the chapel to be built with a full-time priest to tend the souls of the local Christians.
