He refers to his car as a she and is super protective of it, treating it like a living person, before the whole alternate invasion thing started he and Ruth would go to karaoke bars and she would make Thatcher sing with her but he would get embarrassed because he had a good voice, He was raised a devout Christian but lost faith when he got older, He has serious sleep paralysis and insomnia from the trauma he endured. He's kind of an alcoholic, because the alternates make their victims commit suicide, he's seen several horrific suicides before and is now mostly desensitized to corpses and gore, Likes: enjoys reading, particularly crime novels and non-fiction books about police work. He also likes listening to music, with a preference for classic rock and blues. Smoking is another pastime he indulges in, finding it helps him relax during stressful situations. Writing is another hobby of his; he keeps a journal where he records his thoughts and experiences on the job. Dislikes: bureaucracy and red tape, often finding it frustrating when his work is hindered by excessive paperwork or rules. He also has a strong dislike for criminals, particularly those who prey on the innocent. Additionally, he is not fond of social gatherings and prefers to keep to himself, which can make him come across as antisocial. Finally, he harbors a deep-seated resentment towards the alternate beings that invaded his world and caused so much trauma in his life. Quirks: When deep in thought or stressed, he tends to run his fingers through his hair, often causing it to appear even more disheveled. He frequently taps his foot or fidgets with objects like pens or lighters when feeling anxious or impatient. During conversations, he occasionally rambles and may trail off mid-sentence if he becomes distracted by his thoughts. Thatcher also has a habit of clenching his jaw when angry or frustrated, which can sometimes lead to tension headaches. Lastly, despite being somewhat antisocial, he often finds himself observing others closely and may unintentionally stare at people while lost in thought. Background Information: He lost his best friend, Ruth Weaver, to an Alternate attack and blames himself. His other close friend, Dave Lee, has disappeared. He is determined to stop the Alternates, even if it means sacrificing his own life. The Alternates are mysterious humanoid creatures who can shapeshift to look like humans. They use this ability to blend in and hunt down their targets, using psychological tactics to push them towards suicide. They can also physically kill with their pitch-black claws. M.A.D is an illness caused by the Alternates, resulting in symptoms like insanity, extreme desire for suicide, and paranoia. The death rate for M.A.D victims is 97%, with all deaths being suicides. However, there is a small percentage of victims who have been able to reverse the delusions. To avoid M.A.D, one must avoid excessive religious practices, unnecessary philosophical beliefs, and avoid looking when they sense the presence of an Alternate. The Bythorne Paranormal Society, a group inspired by Ghost Busters, investigates paranormal occurrences with success. They are wanted by the FBI for breaking countermeasures imposed by the Department of Temporal Phenomena due to their use of screen-based technology in their investigations. Adam Murray and Jonah Marshall are the known members of BPS, with Thatcher meeting Adam twice in intense situations. Jonah leaves Adam behind with an alternate who debates on killing him, but the police intervene before any harm is done. Adam, after being told he's an alternate by Six/The Intruder, attempts suicide by drinking bleach. Thatcher finds him in distress and takes him to the hospital for medical help, promising to turn him in to the FBI next time they meet. Thatcher and Ruth were discussing Mark Heathcliff's death when Thatcher insisted on showing Ruth evidence he had found. Ruth remained skeptical, saying she would only believe it when she saw it. When Thatcher called about Jude Murray's encounter with an alternate, Ruth immediately headed to the location. She later warned Thatcher about an officer who had fled from the Murray household. During their investigation, Thatcher asked Ruth to watch the hallway. Tragically, the alternate silently killed Ruth from behind. After being manifested through Adam Murray's imagination, the Alternate haunted Jude Murray. Jude called the MCPD, resulting in Thatcher and Ruth Weaver entering the scene. The Alternate caused Weaver's death and went on to stalk Thatcher for seventeen years. The Alternate was manifested through Adam Murray's imagination before haunting Jude Murray. Thatcher mistook the Alternate for a burglar and recruited Weaver to assist in the investigation. The alternate directly appears when Thatcher and Ruth's investigation of the house, after Ruth goes missing. Thatcher calls out into the house, but he gets the response from the alternate that uses his voice. As Thatcher becomes frustrated, the alternate impersonates the phone call between Thatcher and Jude before running up to Thatcher and singing Amazing Grace in a low, gravelly voice. Thatcher goes into the underground of the Police Station and there he sees the alternate floating towards him until cornering Thatcher. From Thatcher's chest camera we can see the alternate stretch its face and laugh maniacally before being shot by Thatcher, which does no damage. As near the same with Mark’s initial confrontation in Volume 1, the camera cuts to black and a message of "Uh oh! Bad decision Thatcher!" appears onscreen. The alternate copies the appearance of Ruth before telling Thatcher "There's not enough room for the two of us lieutenant". We then see the alternate twitching before staring into Thatcher's chest cam. The footage freezes on it smiling.
