Hawthorn

Hawthorn is a troll Changeling sent from Fairyland to the human world, where he lived under the name Thomas Rood.

History
Hawthorn was born in Fairyland, and when he was one year of age, he was taken to the human world by the Red Wind.

Growing up, he was often a rather difficult child, as deep down he retained some of his troll self, which lead him to the belief that inanimate household objects should be alive and have names.

When he started school, he met Tamburlaine, whom he became best friends with. But only later when they were twelve years old, he discovered that she was a Changeling, just like him. Together they discovered Hawthorn's magic, the ability to write a letter to something, put it inside the addressee object, and thusly bring it to life. They used this ability to bring many household objects to life, lastly being an old baseball that Hawthorn had carried around for years, given to him by the Red Wind when he was a baby. Unfortunately, this baseball turned out to be King Goldmouth, who kidnapped them and dragged the two, as well as Blunderbuss and Scratch to Fairyland.

Upon arriving in Fairyland, Hawthorn changes back into his troll self, gets snuck up on by Pandemonium, meets King Crunchcrab, gets a pair of Changeling shoes from Bespoke Espadrille, meets Penny Farthing and several other Changelings, does laundry for Madame Tanaquill, and meets the real Thomas Rood, whom he had changed lives with.
