| First Appearance |
Thatolocian Reevis is an ancient Slave Lord of Roshal. He escaped the destruction of the other ghosts to the land of the living.
Appearance
His new body is a man in his forties, with white hair and somewhat long legs. His eyes can have the shape of numbers.[1]
Personality
As a [Numerologist], Thatalocian holds numbers to be important and significant, powerful in their own right rather than only tools.[2] He is stoic and has little vanity. As a ghost, he did not care to indulge in sensations like the other ghosts of Roshal did.
Unlike other slavers of Roshal, Thatolocian doesn't define himself by owning people, seeing himself as a numerologist foremost. And even still, he declared he was not dictated by his class, levels and Skills, and preferred death over becoming beholden to them.[3] He was willing to free slaves if he found them worthy, and he may not even have held the [Slaver] class. But he is still proud of Roshal, and believes slavery is preferable to prison.
He has a deep, abiding respect for Doombearers from how they fought the horrors of the Long Night in his time.[4]
He considers Seamwalkers to be his one and only true enemy. He returned to life instead of fighting them in order to prepare the world against them, the body of beings like A'ctelios Salash, and the one that led them to this world. To this end he is even willing to make peace with anything, Demons, the Death of Chains, or worse.[3]
Background
Thatolocian was born during the Long Night, the period of time when magic disappeared, and has known struggle. He lived long enough to see the reappearance of magic.[4]

- (To Captain Thin) "It may not be this seventeen. Do not mistake me, Captain Thin. Numerology is no…science. It is close to divination. More shamanism than magecraft. More occultism than sorcery."[3]
