Tom is a Neutral who aids Silver, Blaze, and Rob on their quest to retrieve Fudd from The Trolls' headquarters.

History

Becoming a Neutral

In a lengthy flashback, Tom's origins are shown as being good drinking buddies with Sylvester, Coyote, and Fudd. They all talk about the various animals they try to hunt down, which they apparently have been doing for quite some time. In a drunken stupor, they eventually wander into a church where they gain necromancy powers, becoming "Neutral". Tom loses some of his lifespan upon the death of Porky due to caring too much.

After getting his powers, Tom attempts to kill Jerry by poisoning his milk and claiming that the milk is amazing, luring him in. Jerry drinks from the milk and dies. Tom attempts to consume Jerry, but is unable to and accidentally discovers his necromancy powers, animating the corpse.

Tails Gets Trolled

Tom makes his first appearance in Chapter 8: the neutral's, where he explains, alongside Coyote and Sylvester, how they became Neutrals. He is eventually enlisted by Silver to help fight The Trolls. He goes to attack the Troll base, and demonstrates that he has collected the corpses of many characters beyond just Jerry to use in battle, most of them dogs, such as Spike who usually antagonized him in the original Tom and Jerry cartoons. He also has animated Granny, the owner of Sylvester, for little reason other than to annoy him. He fights alongside Sylvester and his minions against unnamed trolls, but eventually encounters Troll Face. Troll Face fires a bullet at Tom, but Sylvester shields him from the shot, dying in his place. There is a panel that indicates that Tom loses his necromancy due to caring too much about Sylvester's death, but it seems to have just decreased the duration of his lifespan.

Relationship with Sylvester

Sylvester has constant arguments with Tom, as they compete to see who can kill the small animals they chase after first. Sylvester kills Tweety first, doing so before even the flashback begins, earning Tom's envy. They apparently got into a bar fight over this before, and come close to doing so again during the flashback. While Tom eventually kills Jerry, they always find new things to argue about, such as their taste in porn. They also compete to see who can kill the most trolls in the troll base, with Sylvester complaining that Tom "steals his kills".

Sylvester typically acts much more mature than Tom, but apparently cares deeply about Tom as he goes out of his way to take a bullet for him. He claims that he acted so antagonistic simply to toughen him up and prepare him for the future.

Real Life Origins

Tom is based on Thomas Cat, a character from the animated series Tom and Jerry who first appeared in 1940. In Tails Gets Trolled, he is much more talkative than his original incarnation, and actually succeeds in killing Jerry.

Reception

What Tom finds "interesting".

Tom is one of the most well-known characters from Tails Gets Trolled, due to him appearing in several iconic scenes, such as when he discusses interesting facts about seatbelts, or his distressed facial expression during his hangover which became the basis for the Unsettled Tom "meme".
