Frost Burned

• Thaddeus¹⁸⁵
• One of the Halfies¹⁸⁷
• Mein Sohn²²¹

Frost Burned

• Wasn't good looking, his ears were too big and they stuck out and his nose was flattened as if he'd gone three rounds with George Foreman¹⁸⁷

Night Broken

• Ears sticking out a little, his face just this side of homely-by his choice³⁷

Metallzauberer (Fae)

Iron Kissed

• Tad was half-human. His human blood hadn't, as far as Mercy could see, lessened the affinity for metals he shared with his father. Mercy didn't know if he'd inherited his father's immortality: he was nineteen and looked it²³

Frost Burned

• Tad wasn't one of the half fae who were as powerless as most humans⁶⁹
• Control of the big guns (his power) isn’t what it should be¹⁹⁵

Night Broken

• He looked a little odd. The stick-out ears that had always given him an almost-comical appearance were now pointed, the bones of his face subtly rearranged to beauty as real and as human as Adam's. His eyes were not human at all: polished silver with a cat's-eye pupil of purple. He was a little taller than usual, a little buffer, a little more graceful, and a lot scarier¹⁶⁹
• Unaffected by foul smoke¹⁶⁹
• Found it easier to magically manipulate aluminum over steel¹⁷¹
• Changes like Mercy- between one breath and the next. He was a little taller than usual and a lot handsomer. He looked clean-cut and real¹⁷⁴
• Tad was incredibly powerful¹⁷⁴

Fire Touched

• Can mold pipes into a weapon⁵⁹

Zee Adelbertsmiter House

Father - Zee Adelbertsmiter

Mercy's Garage

Frost Burned

• Doesn't have a car¹³⁶

Smoke Bitten

• Had a VW bus. Mechanically it was sound and the interior was completely redone, but he hadn't decided on a paint job yet so it was still primer gray⁵⁴

Education

Moon Called

• With Zee being outed by the Gray Lords and being moved to the reservation he'd gotten the scholarship that allowed him to head to the Ivy League college of his choice¹²
• Studying at Harvard²⁸⁰

Silver Borne

• Fae were considered a minority, so his official status as half-fae and his grades had gotten him in—hard work was keeping him there⁴

Smoke Bitten

• Left for an Ivy League education but returned without his degree²

Work Experience

Moon Called

• The never-ending paperwork for the garage had fallen to Tad¹²

Night Broken

• Was fine writing the garage appointments on paper rather than using the appointment schedule that Gabriel had set up¹⁴⁵

Languages

Frost Burned

• Speaks Old German²²³

Moon Called

• Nothing scares him, nothing bothers him, and he's frighteningly competent at whatever he chooses to do²⁹⁸

Iron Kissed

• Has a certain disregard and distaste for authority¹⁶⁹

Frost Burned

• Wouldn't be able to sit around while someone was in danger⁷⁰
• Always careful with the truth; it is a powerful thing and deserves respect²⁰⁰
• No longer acting like a hermit³³⁶

Night Broken

• Someone had rubbed off the bright and shiny cheer that had been his gift to the world⁷⁴

Frost Burned

• His father had taught him to fight with swords¹⁷⁶
• Look-At-Me mode he used to distract people; look-at-me-not-at-what-I’m-hiding¹⁸⁶
• Can play solitaire; spider solitaire; no cheating for him²⁰⁸
• Can discern lies but not with vampires²⁶⁹

Night Broken

• At least as good of a mechanic as Mercy³⁷

Frost Burned

• Took two years of aikido¹⁸⁷

Blood Bound

• had a very rocky love life²⁶¹

Frost Burned

• Thinks haunted houses are nifty²²⁷

Night Broken

• Likes his brownies with lots of frosting but no nuts³⁷
• Likes the blueberry muffins that Christy made⁷³
• Has never visited anyone in prison⁸⁰
• Doesn't usually lie, though since he is only half-fae, he can, and he is a fair hand at misdirection¹¹³
• Swears in German¹⁷³

Fire Touched

• Acted a little like a clown to cover up just how competent he was¹²³

Mercy and Tad

Moon Called

• Mercy emails Tad every week²⁹⁸

Iron Kissed

• Tad had hired Mercy when he was nine. He had to hire her three more times in the next month¹⁶⁹
• Thinks Mercy can be too innocent¹⁷²

Frost Burned

• Tad and Mercy emailed once a week since he left, and she called him once a month to keep up. Tad was the little brother Mercy had never had, and in some ways, they were closer than she was to her half sisters. Tad and Mercy had more in common: neither of them quite fitting in to either the world of the humans or the world of the supernatural⁶⁸
• Got Mercy a Big Word of the Day calendar for Christmas²²⁷
• Used his magic to help burn Mercy's Rabbit to ash³³⁴

Night Broken

• Medea, Mercy's cat, likes him²⁴
• If Mercy ever finds out who hurt Tad she might sic a werewolf pack on them⁷⁴
• Mercy wished that they'd had Tad come over and stay with them instead of going to Fairyland; but it didn't like Tad didn’t have much of a choice²³⁸
• Without Tad’s help, Guayota would have defeated Mercy³²⁵

Smoke Bitten

• Mercy had worked on cars with Tad for more than a decade, nearly half Tad's life²
• One of the people Mercy most trusted in the world²

Jesse and Tad

Frost Burned

• He'd flirted lightly with Jesse when he'd been home last⁷⁰

Smoke Bitten

• Tad could keep Jesse safe, and he was a good shoulder to cry on⁵⁴

Tad and the Pack

Iron Kissed

• Tad really respected Adam¹⁷²

Frost Burned

• Tad belonged to Mercy and thus to Adam¹⁹³
• Warren taught Tad to play gin rummy when he was a kid²⁰⁷
• Impressed with Asil's swordmanship; a bit of hero worship coming off Tad²¹³
• Tad drew the silver out of the wolves who needed it—including Ben. Kelly got the worst of it, as Tad’s skill improved with practice²⁴⁴

Night Broken

• Enjoyed exchanging juvenile remarks with Joel⁷⁷

Fire Touched

• The pack had Tad's back. Tad could keep Aiden safe, and the pack safe- and the pack would keep him safe¹²⁶

Tad and the Fae

Iron Kissed

• Had visited Connora often; she was kind to him²³
• Under the Gray Lords’ edict to stay away when Zee was arrested for murder¹⁶⁹
• Uncle Mike set a geas on him to not talk about the fae to Mercy¹⁷¹

Silver Borne

• Was worried for Phin's safety⁵

Frost Burned

• Something happened to him when he was at college; it may had something to do with why he wasn't on the reservation with the rest of the fae⁶⁹
• Because even though they don’t care a fig for the half-bloods, the pure-blooded fae send us lists of fae who did not answer the Gray Lords’ call. We, the rejected, are to watch out for these fae and turn in any purebloods we see¹⁸⁹

Night Broken

• It sounded like someone noticed him using magic, and he has to go talk to them²²³
• Tad is unhappy and those who hold him are not listening. He is being held against his will²⁹²

Fire Touched

• Tad hadn't been required (or asked) to retreat to the reservations, at least not until he had demonstrated that his magic was powerful and rare. Then they'd wanted him³
