First seen in "Matchmaker", Tom is a reoccurring character and a minor antagonist in SVTFOE. He is described by Star as a demon, which is made clear through his manipulative nature and his residence in the Underworld. Tom had an off-screen relationship with Star before the events in the show, and it has yet to be revealed exactly what caused their split. Regardless, winning Star back is almost always the motive behind Tom's wrongdoings.
