Thag the Impatient, usually known simply as Thag, is the leader of the Bandits in Bower Lake. He is the earliest boss in the game, killed during The Birth of a Hero. Cruel and malicious, Thag has little concern for the fate of his bandit followers, or the slaves he traffics. He is also notably illiterate, as evidenced by his journal. Thag's Cabin can be purchased after you defeat him.

History

Apparently, Thag started his career as a bandit leader around the time that Rose and Sparrow still lived with their parents; during A Perfect World, Rose mentions that Thag had better watch out, or their father would "give him a good thrashing". It is possible that Thag captured or murdered the parents.

Around the time the Hero is recovering under Theresa's care, Lucien recruits the bandit leader to capture villagers and traders to serve as slaves in the Tattered Spire. Thag fulfils this role well, and builds up a fearsome reputation within the Bower Lake area.

During his return to Bowerstone, the Hero is forced to defeat Thag and his gang in order to proceed; the road ahead had been closed due to bandit activities. The Hero claims his head as a trophy. It is also possible to purchase his cabin.

Trivia

  • His mummy never loved him as stated in the history of his cabin.
  • His impatience knows no bounds as he doesn't have the patience to wait for three seconds - "I'll give ya three seconds to get ready... no wait, two! Oh sod it, AAAARRRGHHH!"
