TKG 1/11, 12, 14, 15

Kurtherian pilot, transfers to Bethany Anne during her transition. Connected to her nervous system. (Spinal cord). Cannot be removed. Similar to AI for Bethany Anne. Not a match for Michael, so could not connect to him when he was transformed. Was unsure of Michael's physiology, so did as poor job of transforming him - tremendous pain, and changed him into a vampire. Therefore, TOM is probably responsible for all of the vampires in the world.
