About: History/personality
Thomas always enjoyed playing the good guy in video games, but when he got trapped in the game, he was scared and hesitant to jump right in and start farming with the rest of the players who wanted to get out as soon as possible. He wanted to get out and get back to his life, but he was scared. He had friends and family he didn't want to disappoint by failing here in the game, so he kept up hope that others would bust him out of the game soon enough. Now it's been years, no help is coming, and a fifth of the castle hasn't even been cleared. It's obvious that if he wants to get out, Garret's just gonna have to work to win the game himself.
Virtues:

Determined- When Garret gets set on a task, he'll go through with it even if it means that he might die, so long as it's not a stupid risk. He follows orders from good commanders very well, and will fight tooth and nail to make sure he and his friends get out of the game safely. He's determined mostly to make up for the time spent sitting around and doing nothing, and get enough work done to really make a difference in the fight to get out of the game.

Honor- Garret is many things, but a liar is not one of them. He values his honor very highly, and if he does have to lie, it'll usually be a temporary measure, after which he'll come clean and accept the consequences. Garret's word means the world to him, and he's not just going to go and ruin its worth for nothing. He's an honest young man who can be trusted to give something his all when he says he'll go do it.

Industriousness- Though Garret is often afraid of death and the possibility of death for his comrades, he's good at finding less conventional solutions to his problems. Why fight the world boss from the field it spawns in when you can jury rig up a catapult to throw poison flasks at it before engaging? Or sneak attacking a mob instead of coming at it head on, to ensure better survival odds? This is the way Garret thinks; finding solutions to his problems, no matter how odd they seem to others. "It's only crazy if it doesn't work."

Flaws:
Reference: http://www.darkworldrpg.com/lore/flaws.html
Depressive- It's easy for Garret to give up hope. He's got a tendency to look at everything fatalistically (he insists that fatalism and realism are often the same thing) and though he'll keep trying to go on, it's usually not his strong suit to inspire confidence in his fellow warriors. He's usually the one that needs hope given to him to really get his head into the fight.

Strong Headed- Garret is smart and he knows it, meaning that unless he really values someone's opinion on a subject, he's going to trust his judgment over theirs. If another player is clearly more qualified than he to make a decision, he'll defer to their opinion, but otherwise he's gonna do what he's gonna do, and that isn't always a good thing. Confidence is a good thing, but Garret's tendency to just decide that he's the most qualified to do something absent an expert, and take action, has gotten him in trouble many times.

Prideful- Garret has a very Alpha-type personality, seeing himself as a dominant person in general and not deferring to other people of similar experience/power level. With players that clearly outstrip Garret, he'll be more tactful and respectful, but if someone of his level starts calling him out...Garret lives by the rule, "Talk s***, get hit", and he's not afraid to challenge people to nonlethal duels at all, even over petty things.
