Theo Ransom

Dr. Theo Ransom is a character that appears in Nocturne.

He has a Ph.D. in Anthropology.

He has been teaching “The Occult and its Ties to Modern History” at Athmore University, a small class usually taken to pad credit hours or as an act of rebellion by locals looking to distance themselves from the heavy religious influences in the town proper.

Often seen as lethargic and generally low energy; when not teaching Dr. Ransom is prone to mumbling or quiet contemplation rather than taking charge of a room. He is never seen without a cup of coffee somewhere nearby.

Dr Ransom has several key stones which he does not like to have out of reach; a sketch of a symbol which he tends to keep in his pocket. a golden wedding band, and a book he keeps in a lockbox.

Early Life
While Dr. Ransom doesn' speak of his childhood, his credentials are easily searchable. Dr Ransom received his Undergrad and Masters degrees from the University of Michigan and went to Colombia University in New York for his Doctorate in Anthropology.

Dr Ransom decided to go back to his hometown of Athmore to teach at their shrinking University and pursue some of the strange things he's seen in his cultural studies. He met his friend and colleague, Adisa Bellow, during one of the out of town seminars on relativity, a side interest of his.

Personal Life
Dr. Ransom lives a quiet life. He spends little time in his immaculate appartment and most of his time in his university office. His office is organized chaos, with old books and notes scattered everywhere.
