"I am known, where I am known at all, for stories with unconventional plots and unusual characters that, despite having some degree of appeal to numerous age ranges, are primarily geared at juveniles aged eight to fifteen."
―D. Isaac Thomas[src]

D. Isaac Thomas, occasionally called Ike, seldomly called Devyn and usually called Isaac (b. June 9, 2001 in Utah), is an American fiction writer, illustrator, actor, and partial sword duelist and musical artist, as well as a former amusement park operator. Thomas is most famous for authoring the components of the D.I.T. Literary Universe and particularly The Super Babies Saga, which have gained a moderate deal of attention. Numerous works are scheduled for release in the future. An aspiring rapper, he also crafted D.I.T. Rap Battles. Thomas is also active on YouTube, where he has eight hundred subscribers as of November 2020, a feat he is very proud of. Thomas has hazel eyes, and blonde, extremely curled hair. He is usually seen wearing T-shirts and jeans, though on some occasions he has worn costumes or fancy attire. His teeth seem to have recently improved their condition as he removed his braces. Charles Hugh and Brian were self-insertions on his part.

c. 19th Century: Family Lineage[]

The name of Locke became well-known after John Locke became a founding father of the United States in the eighteenth century. At some point prior to the twentieth century, the Lockes moved to the United States, some to Northern Alabama while others went northeast. Their known descendants included the Christensen family.

2001-2008: Origins[]

Dit

D. Isaac Thomas with his family in 2003.

"D. Isaac Thomas wrote his first book when he was four. He can't even remember the title!"
―Melissa Vaine[src]

D. Isaac Thomas was born in 2001 in Taylorsville, Utah to Rachel and Gary Headley. Following their divorce in September, he lived alone with his mother, moving to Wisconsin and later Plainview, Texas until she remarried Ted Thomas in 2003. He was raised solo with them, during which time they moved to Lubbock. Three years after his birth, Rachel and Ted gave birth to Ammon, his younger sibling. In the mix, he found his passion for both writing and art, setting the building blocks for his career. Because Ted was in the military, Thomas and his family moved to Germany.

It was around this time that Thomas dabbled in writing for the very first time, despite losing all recollection of it by 2017. In 2006, Thomas released his very first book, The Prime Poppies, thus kickstarting the D.I.T. Literary Universe although he certainly didn't know it yet. He would not become active in literature, however, for another two years.

2009-2013: Early years in literature[]

DIsaacThomas

Expanding Into New Areas[]

In 2009, Thomas attended Westridge Elementary School in the state of Utah, where he would continually impress his teachers with early signs of literary talent and just as continuously tell stories to his fellow students. This was because his parents had divorced the previous year, and Thomas and Ammon had returned with their mother to the United States of America after spending nearly thirty months in Germany. Inspired by the family's immoderately religious setting and dreary campouts they went on and being displeased by both, he proposed working on a book with his brother, Ammon, which ultimately became Superquack. He also wrote in a booklet his ideas for Journey to Planet 12 a year before the Superquack project.

Thomas' masterpiece: The Super Babies[]

Following the beginning of the second semester of fifth grade, D. Isaac Thomas had the idea for a story of a baby genius with superpowers leading a group of like-minded babies and children against terrorism when he was eating breakfast with his little brother Ammon. By Christmas Day, he had in her head the characters and a good part of the plot for Baby Intelligence and the novel's follow-ups, Sebiscuits: Dawn of Transcendence and The Super Babies: Pride of the Super Babies, which he began working on during his after-school hours. Published on July 29, 2011, the first book of the series to end the first part of the D.I.T. Literary Universe was a huge success, and he has thus far kept the S.M.S.B. story arc an essential part of the DLU.

On March 16, 2012, D. Isaac Thomas joined Storybird, where he received many viewers and much criticism for his works. Despite all it had to offer, and having more than two hundred followers, Thomas was increasingly annoyed at the clear paranoia of the moderating crew and hoped there was a site where he could write about any subject. When he suggested that the community should rate stories instead of reject the slightly bad ones, a staff recommended a site called Movellas that ensured online safety in that way.

Dear Dumb Diary[]

D-Isaac-Thomas-DDD

D. Isaac Thomas' brief appearance in Dear Dumb Diary

In 2013, D. Isaac Thomas made a cameo appearance in the realistic fiction film annotation Dear Dumb Diary. As the audience applauded during the climax, he was seen in the back left corner, jumping up and down, standing out for his over-the-top reaction. At some point shortly before this, Thomas won the fourth-place (out of the top ten) in a school-wide fundraiser to sell cookie dough. Earlier, he made it into the Spelling Bee in a specific year where the teacher had every student try out, with him making it to the school match and coming very close to the state, showing how vehemently competitive he was at a young age.

2014-19: Coming of age[]

Induction into Wattpad[]

On his birthday in 2014, Thomas created his account on Movellas and named it for him, his brother, and their nicknames in one. Later Ammon created his own account on Movellas and called it storyteller91. He also moved most of his burgeoning enterprise to Wattpad, where he became moderately successful. Although he still used Storybird occasionally, Wattpad became his primary storytelling zone. Around this time, he became a more indirect adherent to Christianity, admitting he has been doing much better since.

Melissa Vaine[]

Early in 2015 he began working with an intellectual, introverted, and ambitious girl named Melissa Vaine. On June 9, he confirmed the rumors that there would be a sequel to The Super Babies Saga, revealing that he would create Agents of the S.M.S.B.: The Latest Threat and that it was not over with his controversial yet generally well-received novel titled S.M.S.B.: The Return of the Verasect. An inevitable challenge Vaine faced was remembering what a character knows about other characters and certain situations at a specific moment in the D.I.T. timeline, to maintain consistency. Fortunately, Thomas, who is in charge of maintaining and monitoring the consistency in canon, is very familiar with his own details; therefore, he has been very helpful to Melissa. Indeed, there is no doubt these two have created a mutual bond. In the mix, he began as a rapper by opening D.I.T. Rap Battles, currently unaware it had been an unhealthy obsession of his biological father.

Thomas

In 2016, he announced the imminent creation of Before The SMSB, a series focusing initially on the Mutant Wars and later, the history of the NoHeads. He also released what Chris described as one of his most ambitious projects, Band of Justice, which completed the third part of Mutantry-2001. On October 17, he released The Mission to Earth as a high school project that was eventually extended into a short novel.

Disappearance[]

"You can travel the world and find that in ninety-seven of every hundred places you look, there'll be no consistency whatsoever. Inconsistency makes the world go round."
―D. Isaac Thomas[src]

In 2017, Thomas' New Years' Resolution was to achieve better grades in school. He also released Where is the Darkness?, the third chapter of the Before The SMSB franchise, in March 2017. However, that same month he disappeared for several months against his own volition, as his recent life had included madness, isolationism, and aggression. In terms of literacy, however, he was not idle, working on several concepts for books, both past and present, doing major amounts of work on Across the Portal: Interference, and returned to both Utah and the world wide web armed with new knowledge to bolster his career.

Collaborating with Vaine[]

"They all know I live to improve people, but in order to improve what is faulty and fix what is broken, I'll have to break out of this cage I'm in and start repairing myself."
―D. Isaac Thomas[src]

In November, D. Isaac Thomas approached Melissa Vaine with his ideas, which he had already been developing in the months of his absence from public eyes, about a sequel to the Boys vs. Girls trilogy, and promised he would pay her in the future, should she work as his co-writer on the book. Thomas later expressed that his goal succeeded, achieving all "A's" and a single 'C' by December 17. He launched the Across the Portal project two weeks beforehand.

File:Thomas-5255.jpg

While it was initially believed that the Agents of the S.M.S.B. project would be complete in February of 2018, Thomas recently postponed it until December 2019, owing both to work on Before The SMSB and the creation of a third part of the series, effectively making it a trilogy. Thomas continually used Chat Mods on Wikia and Instagram to work collaboratively with Melissa Vaine on the aforementioned novel, which was titled Boys vs. Girls 2 and released shortly before his seventeenth birthday in May of 2018.

Thomas-18sbc

The following month, he finished the last chapter of Before The SMSB: What is a Bloodbath?. Going into twelfth grade, Thomas was worried, and he currently says his experience was a "bit of a shock" as he "was expecting to be amongst lots of strange people – clustering into groups, learning, sleeping, thinking radical thoughts, and not doing much else." Once he made friends with "some like-minded people" he says he began to enjoy himself. He was also the inspiration for Red, a major character and anti-hero from The Revolution of the Idiots, which is a book written by his friend Fred. Red is described as lawfully ambiguous and self-righteous.

Last Dominion[]

D. Isaac Thomas began developing Last Dominion in October of 2018 along with a partner assigned to him, Jackson. They quickly developed a synopsis for the game and they told of their ideas to their teacher, who believed they were off to a good start. They began working independently to create gaming sprites for the primary characters. While Thomas worked primarily on Formidability and Randy the Tyrannosaurus, Jackson worked primarily on Cobra and the zombies.

Unfortunately, it was announced on January 6, 2019, that Last Dominion was cancelled due to Thomas losing contact with Jackson. The two also lacked the resources needed to complete the production of the game, and losing contact negated their goals of finding out how to obtain them.

Reaching Manhood[]

An eighteen-year-old D. Isaac Thomas.

In March 2019, Thomas revealed about earlier plans to make a sequel to the Across the Portal trilogy; but due to a number of factors, nothing came to be. The novel would have been called Ronald Potter and the Jedi Holocron and would have detailed the early education of two brothers in the Jedi arts.

76702303 117814969647129 8362969579273584640 n

On May 26, Thomas graduated from high school and prepared to complete his education at Vista Education Center. Shortly after his eighteenth birthday, Thomas accepted employment from Lagoon Amusement Park, working as an operator on a handful of rides at the park. He released a novel about his experiences over the last two years, titled Boys vs. Girls 2 Prelude, which received universal acclaim.

In late August, D. Isaac Thomas enrolled in Vista, although he admitted the structure was odd and most of the alumni were less than savory, hence why he considered dropping out in January of 2020. In November 2019, his seasonal job at Lagoon came to an end. He also released Across the Portal: Intuition on the day before Halloween.

2020-22: Post-high school[]

"I am not the same man I was in second grade, or junior high, or even the start of my Senior year."
―D. Isaac Thomas[src]

COVID-19 Pandemic, graduation, and preparing for college[]

"The disapproval of the foolish is praise to the wise."
―D. Isaac Thomas[src]

During the quarantine induced by COVID-19, D. Isaac Thomas began looking into Davis Technical College and added elements of the pandemic to Mutantry-2001 in order to increase timeline-related consistency. Thomas also began using Facebook actively.

In June, Thomas returned to D.I.T. Rap Battles after five years of inactivity, opening a second season. He also sought to return to Lagoon Amusement Park in October, but nothing came to be. He also released Super Pumpkin Man and the Cursed Flora as his sendoff that he was leaving Storybird behind for good. In November, Wattpad became his primary storytelling zone, having replaced Movellas by a landslide. However, throughout 2020 he mentioned dealing with obstacles such as schizo-effective mentality, post-traumatic stress disorder, medical instability, familial conflict, and weight gain.

He returned to Lagoon in 2021, working at a restaurant entertainment venue called Arby's and tirelessly delving into his extensive studies of colleges around America and beyond to find one that would be perfect for him. In the mix, he came out about being an adamant adherent to misotheism. As soon as he turned twenty, he released The Diary of a Flower, confirming this year would wrap up the DIT-Star Wars Universe for good so the following one could send Part Five: The Death of Shadows underway, after getting off to an unexpectedly slow start with the penultimate phase of the DLU.

In December, Thomas began working at Burger King, but he soon quit his job and launched Morgan in February of 2022, proceeding to begin work at Deseret Industries in April, although it is not a profession he enjoys at all, prompting him to begin working at a real Arby's joint in August. Ultimately, he quit his job there in March.

Private life[]

Characteristics[]

Despite being a quirky, sensitive, and extremely eccentric and introverted child, D. Isaac Thomas' personality changed considerably after his freshman year at North Davis Junior High, owing to his taxing experiences in high school. Despite this, Thomas maintained his eccentric and unshakable personality he'd had since elementary school, continuing to display incredible determination, creativity, intuition, wisdom, and stubbornness. However, midway through 2019, Thomas was confirmed to be at a moderate risk for PTSD following his middle and high school experiences. He has never been part of a lasting romantic relationship before, aside from a week-long relationship with a girl from high school. He was actually a quintessentially homosexual misogynist for most of his teenage life, only easing up on this late in 2021. This is partially due to, in his own words:

"This was due primarily to realizing most older women are harmless and it is mostly teenage girls who embody unambitious malice and self-absorbed hedonism, rather than all women altogether. I will not name them, but two women in particular have been lasting influences that have disproven much of my previous prejudice towards older women, without necessarily failing to justify a righteous hatred for any teenage girls. That's why I've recently come out as bisexual last month, due to acknowledging I don't view women as a source of weak temptation because of the aforementioned factors."

Additionally, Thomas has recently admitted that Magneto is his role model.

Beliefs[]

Although a baptized Christian, D. Isaac Thomas was not a frequent visitor to churches as a teenager and eventually came into the open about being a quintessential misotheist late in 2020. He cited that he had Christian ideals imposed on him and that as it was the first religion he was introduced to, he never chose it. However, he confirmed he was not Antichrist, as he considered Jesus of Nazareth an excellent role model and admitted he was not so rigid that anything scientifically or morally significant could happen to change his religious stance.

Social media[]

D. Isaac Thomas joined YouTube in 2015 as "Devyn Thomas". He has made sixty videos as of July 2016. Almost all of his clips are in 480p quality (though he has uploaded a couple of High Definition videos). Thomas has made videos about different subjects. One subject is movie clips that go along well with songs. Another subject is movie clips, he claims that almost all of them had been unavailable on the site. He has has made several top ten lists, mostly about film characters and music. He has been far less active since 2017, primarily uploading various clips from shows such as Locke & Key.

Criticism[]

Like George Lucas and Zack Snyder, D. Isaac Thomas receives a large amount of negative attention from fans who claim that his work is sloppy and derivative and that his recent actions influencing the D.I.T. Literary Universe detract from the overall value of the series. Someone recently cited that Thomas creates literature that challenges readers' worldviews and provokes questions and further thinking.

His literary partner Melissa Vaine has endured similar backlash, but mostly from "Potterheads", or Harry Potter fanboys, who, according to her, "are mostly comprised of immature teens who hate people for being real. But 13-year-olds with their heads up their butts are easier to come by than mindless SJWs." Thomas claims to have endured similar hate from people (mostly teens) who have an unhealthy bias that prevents them from appreciating the DC Universe, while toxic fans of certain aspects of "Locke & Key" (called "train boys" according to Urban Dictionary) have instigated similar forms of contention, so the correlations to the DLU are likely few and far between.

Spoken about D. Isaac Thomas[]

"This guy man, this guy is so talented yet he only has 15,000 views on this site (not including admin). And I bet they're all from the few fans he has but who just keep coming back over and over again. Y'know, I think all fanboys should try and share his stuff out there some more. I think D. Isaac Thomas deserves some more attention. Let's call it operation 'Breakout'. (cause y'know, we're poetic.)"
―A FANDOM User[src]
"There is a reason why D.I.T. is always number 1. His plots, his illustrations, and his dialogue is some of the best. Especially since these are books for children and teenagers. He seems to always make sure that the adults who are reading with the kids are entertained too, and vice versa, he always seems to make sure there's a little kid-centric stuff in young adult novels."
