Thatch

Thatch was a Nomai originally from the Vessel who landed on Brittle Hollow with Escape Pod 1. Before the Vessel crashed, they used to be the festival envoy for Escall's clan. Thatch's aunt was Melorae who landed in a different escape pod.

After landing on Brittle Hollow, Thatch urged the other Nomai to seek shelter from Hollow's Lantern. When the temporary settlement was established, Thatch recorded all their knowledge of the Eye of the Universe and stressed that the Eye must be found. They also wondered whether the reason that the Vessel crashed in Dark Bramble was a problem with their destination. Initially, Thatch believed that the escape pod survivors should stay close to their pod so they could be rescued. When Plume proposed moving to the northern glacier to build a permanent settlement in order to continue their search for the Eye of the Universe, Thatch changed their mind and supported that idea instead.

Observing the quantum phenomena on Brittle Hollow, Thatch came to the conclusion that the Quantum Moon and the Tower Shard must be related to each other. They became involved in the Eye signal locator on the Attlerock, where they proposed that it is possible that the Eye stopped calling out its signal. After the failure of this locator, Thatch discussed building a new, more sophisticated locator since they were not prepared to give up the search for the Eye that easily.

It is unknown what happened to Thatch after the building of the Southern Observatory, but they ended up not being part of the Ash Twin Project.
