Ezekiel Konrad, also known as Thoth online, is a high-ranking Lunar Children who lives at The Spire. Being among the ranks of the Elder Children, Thoth oversees many of the Lunar Children's activities and commands the lower ranking members. It is implied that his family is very rich, as they were the original owners of The Spire.

Story

Ezekiel was born into a very wealthy family. Presumably, he was inducted into the Lunar Children at a very young age, being unable to recall a time where he was not a loyal worshipper of Luna. At some point, Thoth's family had The Spire constructed for the Lunar Children, where Thoth would then live in his own personal room on the upper floors. Due to his familial connections and devout worship, Thoth joined the ranks of the Elder Children - high ranking Lunar Children who oversee the cult's activities.

On June 30th, 2015, Thoth made a general announcement on Lunarchildren.com congratulating recent ascensions and suggesting that up and coming members partake in higher teachings. On August 3rd, the Lunar Children held a banquet in honor of Patrem and Luna and to welcome LiquidSaint's arrival at The Spire. Unfortunately, Mat was forbidden from attending the banquet, as he had just recently communicated with Tenebris in secret to steal away the players' Ocarina powers and give them to the Lunar Children. As Thoth would explain in an announcement the next day, though this was overall beneficial to the cult, privately communicating with Tenebris is forbidden due to his mischievous ways.

On September 4th, Thoth himself tested out the cult's newly obtained Ocarina powers by submitting the "Song of Storms" on the Lunar Children Forums. This test was a success, as it suddenly began raining heavily around Tyler's location. On October 8th, Tyler uploaded a video showcasing the knocking on the doors and windows of his home caused by Doug. Thoth took note of this in an announcement he made that same day, pointing out the strange interference that took place near the end of the video in which various important Lunar Children figures appeared and left threatening messages.

Eventually, the Elder Children discovered that Mat was still communing with Tenebris in secret despite having been punished for it in the past. Thoth discussed this issue with his fellow Elder Child Jinn, fearing that more and more Lunar Children are becoming enamored with Tenebris. Jinn suggested that they allow Mat's meetings with Tenebris to continue so that they may learn more about him from a safe distance. Thoth begrudgingly agreed.

On the Lunar Children Forums, Thoth could be seen occasionally posting and giving general advice to users. When the user 1_Tsukuyomi_1 joined the forums and claimed that he wanted to ascend, Thoth warned him that it would be challenging yet very rewarding. One month later, Tsukuyomi complained that, despite their constant devotion, they have not been given access to the Libro Lunarus yet. Thoth proceeded to praise Tsukuyomi for their devotion and later spke with the managers of The Spire's library so that he may receive a reading session. Later on, a user named sin_yarikh joined the forums and claimed that Jeremy had shown them a copy of the Libro Lunarus. Though Thoth congratulated Sin for joining the cult, he mentioned that he and the other Elder Children would have to reprimand Jeremy for showing the book to an outsider. Sin later asked what exactly would be taking place on Undecim Nocte 2011. Thoth simply brushed this question off, claiming that it would not be happening near The Spire.

At one point, a young girl named Hina616 asked for a copy of the Libro Lunarus. Thoth corrected her spelling of "Libro Lunaris" and informed her that the three copies of the book would all remain at The Spire under heavy surveillance. Later on, Hina travelled to the Fishery and found Tyler's Crescent Moon Necklace, posting about it on the Lunar Children forums. Not only was accessing the fishery without permission a forbidden act, but the necklace was also very important to the Lunar Children. Thoth proceeded to warn her that he was currently reporting her to the other Elder Children and that she will most likely be punished.

At some point, a user named Sheepdog created a project titled Mooned. While the nature of this project is unknown, it supposedly contained taboo topics, which Thoth forced Sheepdog to later remove. Despite this, when Sheepdog was about to move to The Spire, Hope informed her that Thoth didn't hate Sheepdog as much as she thought he did. One user of the forums, Hunter, was proving to be an outstanding member and was offered a position among the other Elder Children. Hunter asked to receive his next test to become an Elder, which Thoth provided - Hunter was to kill his father, Jeremy.

On November 3rd, Drowned leaked Thoth's Lunar Children login information to the players, giving them access to the Lunar Children forums. Here, players met Jeremy, who was recently just killed by Hunter. Despite all of his planning, Thoth was unable to keep Undecim Nocte 2015 from going awry when the players successfully retrieved their Ocarina powers and warped Tyler out of the cult's grasp. This resulted in Thoth posting a frantic announcement asking any and all capable Lunar Children to move in on Tyler's location and attempt to capture him. The Lunar Children were unsuccessful, though, and Tyler soon escaped to Australia.

The next day, Thoth made another announcement informing all Lunar Children to use more secure communications for the time being while they all regroup - he also took the time to chide Liquidsaint for the current broken state of the forums. A few days later on November 30th, Thoth posted a private Elder Child-only announcement on Lunarchildren.com where he vented his frustrations over failing Undecim Nocte. Here, he openly questions how Tyler was able to retrieve his necklace while implying that Hunter was somehow meant to be responsible for its whereabouts. He also informs the others that Regiminis will soon be poised to confront Tyler as soon as he connects to the internet.

After this, Thoth and the other Elder Children attempted to process what exactly took place on Undecim Nocte. Thoth asked the Elder Child kuu_32 to check the security cameras. Here, it was discovered that Hunter could be seen entering The Spire's basement where he proceeded to "hand it back over" to Tyler - perhaps implying that Hunter himself returned the necklace to Tyler. In addition to this, Thoth expresses his disdain for Liquidsaint's traitorous actions and Hunter and Mat's disappearance. Sometime in early 2016, Regiminis successfully tracks Tyler down in Australia. It is presumably around this time that he killed Helper, who had just recently stolen Tyler's necklace and was attempting to return it to the players. Regiminis retrieved this necklace and gave it to the Elder Child Jinn, who then locked it in a secure location. Thoth showed little sympathy for Helper, claiming he had to be killed for assisting the players.

Months later on March 1st, Thoth made a post on the Lunarchildren.com commanding everyone to head to the top floor of The Spire, where Father Vincent had an important announcement to make. The next day, Thoth made another announcement informing the cult that Tyler had now returned to Florida and that they would have another opportunity to sacrifice him on April 23rd, 2016. Thoth also mentions that both Mat and Doug had not been seen since Undecim Nocte, and he publicly accuses Liquidsaint of being a traitor.

For some reason, the Lunar Children were unable to capture Tyler for a second time, resulting in the Cataclysm killing most of them off. On April 24th, Thoth posted a hysterical announcement on Lunarchildren.com questioning why they were unable to carry out their mission. Being in such close proximity to The Spire, it is assumed that Thoth is dead.

Personality

Thoth comes off as a very strict "no-nonsense" individual. Often seen chiding others or issuing commands, Thoth is a stern leader within the cult. This stoic façade crumbles a bit when Thoth is very excited or stressed, as seen during and around Undecim Nocte when the players helped Tyler escape. Aside from his cult duties, Thoth enjoys video games and tinkering with computers.

Ezekiel Konrad

Did one of the giants really just cause this mandella effect with his last name just to further establish itself in the overall reality of the sphere or is "God" making some kind of joke here... Sorry this is not so much on subject, let me focus...

The son of privilege, associate of the down trodden, unknown servant of the snakes and owls of the world who reflect here off of the waters. He will be redeemed through dreams and awaken to the sickness of his world.

8/4/15 - The elder childs act of hubris - Lunarchildren.com

The elder childs act of hubris
Posted on August 4, 2015 at 9:03 PM by Thoth
Luna shine on us all my brothers and sisters, and may The Father guide us. I am posting in place of our Elder child Operator Matt, as he is still being reprimanded for what he did on Monday. Despite whatever Tenebris may have done for us, agree wholeheartedly he should have followed Fathers advice about communicating to him without a group of Elder children present or at least keeping a recording of the communications. You REALLY shouldn’t have done that Matt.

He was reprimanded once for his first revealed lone action, and he continued in secret despite being asked to cease these actions.Let this be a lesson to all of you as well, Tenebris Link is not a mere game for even the higher ranks, let alone initiates. If you feel you have held communications with him, report it post haste to an Elder child. As Father has told us, Tenebris can speak to us in confusing ways, and sometimes he may even tell you an outright lie. He is a trickster by nature and not to be taken lightly.

On a lighter note the banquette was fantastic on Monday despite the lack of presence on Matts part and all went very well, welcome from all of us to you Liquid Saint.

Summary

• Thoth chides Mat for privately communicating with Tenebris, despite it being an overall benefit for the Lunar Children. He also welcomes Liquidsaint to The Spire.

On the harbinger links recent broadcast
Posted on October 8, 2015 at 1:14 AM by Thoth
As we predicted Regiminis is becoming stronger and stronger, and the Harbingers link continues to be none the wiser of his presence thanks to the Fathers power, however at this point I personally have to wonder, is it that maybe he just fears that anything beyond his pitiful normal life may be transpiring, and seeks to deny such a thing? Pitiful unenlightened fool. “Camera glitches” he calls them, HE FEARS THE TRUTH!

But to our own benefit honestly, his ignorance keeps him predictable. For those who have been keeping watch of his misguided “vlog” and were confused by the message Regiminis transpired, I personally feel the “Some have to knock to exit their realm, not us” bit may have just been a jab at Douglas in light of the small rivalry they once held. Father Vincent must now also have his eye on him as well seeing as I saw what looked like his mask near the end of the message. But I am unsure who those other green spirits were, most likely just overflow from the portal.

Continue your studies my brethren, the holy time is nearly here!

Summary

• Thoth taunts Tyler and attempts to explain the message Regiminis left in the video Paranoid knocking.

11/5/15 - "I was just shown the light today" - 1_Tsukuyomi_1

And luckily for myself I live very close to the meeting grounds so if anyone wants to call upon me for assitance please let me know. I really hope I can ascend soon, I am sick and tired of being beat up at school."
_jinn_: "Welcome to your destiny child. Glory awaits you, be ready."
1_Tsukuyomi_1: "Thankyou, I was told by one of the elder children (I am sorry I still haven't gotten peoples names down) that I showed a lot of promise. I am excited to figure out what is in store for me in the future and if I can maybe partake in ascension one day."
Ezekiel_thoth33: "Ascension is a very challenging road that requires lots of mental and physical preparation. If you let your soul be one with Luna, and allow Father to guide you, and you take his guidance to heart, you will see the glory of the parallelos beyond. Ready yourself child, if true ascension is your goal, then a great journey awaits you."

11/5/15 - "Glad to be a child of Luna" - sin_yarikh

sin_yarikh: "Fresh into the family as of 5 days ago. I didn't realize we were gonna have forums and everything, this is actually pretty cool. About me, Im a college drop out, fucking sick of my life. I hate my family and could not find any real aspirations for shit. Until my friends dad (also known around here as Jarilo333) told me about Luna. He let me look at a bit of The Libro Lunarus and I slowly began to realize that she is what I have been missing in my life. I am very excited about the concept of ascending and even now cannot wait to finally escape all of this shit I am surrounded by and be greeted by the infinite mind scape, the way in which we may all be gods."
kuu_32: "While we would usually be highly against exposure of sacred texts to outsiders, this was a special case in which Jarilo's bad judgement led quite luckily to a positive outcome. However I would recommend you never make a similar choice, for you own well being."
Hina616: "Im actually not sure if I met you yet. WELCOME TO THE FAMILY ~<3"
_jinn_: "Welcome to the family new moon."
Ezekiel_thoth33: "We will need to have a word with him about this, but congratulations on finally finding your way to the truth child."

Summary

• Thoth welcomes sin_yarikh to the Lunar Children, though he is displeased to hear that Jeremy showed them a copy of the Libro Lunarus - something that is taboo for outsiders.

11/5/15 - "Test" - MattR

Ezekiel_thoth33: "Lets just try one more time to be sure this is what we have been granted."
Ezekiel_thoth33: ((A video of the Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time was posted))
MattR: "It appears this is what we had thought, and after careful planning and judgement, we have decided it may be in our best interests to apply this gift to his power, Regiminis. Though he does not hold the deuro in his grasp as planned, he may still watch over the Harbingers link and have enough power to communicate his knowledge of the Portal to us. Mothers shine be upon you Ascended brother Regiminis! Power unto thee through thine sigil!"
MattR: ((The Regiminis Sigil is posted))

Summary

• Thoth tests out the Ocarina powers that Tenebris had recently stolen from the players by submitting the "Song of Storms".

1_Tsukuyomi_1: "It has been a month now and I have been REALLY dedicated, when can I finally leave this world?"
Ezekiel_thoth33: "Have you had access yet to the Libro Lunarus yet?"
1_Tsukuyomi_1: "NO, keep getting denied permission from elders in the spire library, they act like I am a fucking outsider and I am tired of it."

11/5/15 - "I found this thing" - Hina616

Hina616: ((A photo of someone holding Tyler's crescent moon necklace is posted))
Hina616: "I was forced to go out of state to visit with some family recently. While I was in the area, I went to the place I was told about that the blood moon ritual was performed in. I was hoping maybe I could use some of the power there, left over from the ceremony to make contact with someone from beyond this parallelos and gain knowlege. I think I failed -_-;'But I did find this cool necklace, I was wondering if it belonged to anyone who was here for the ritual?"
HarryM1: "That is a pretty obnoxiously big image, but yeah looks pretty cool. Nice find, but wasn't that place meant to be off limits?"
Jarilo333: "That necklace actually looks pretty familiar, if I recall we had a member who was given the name lunaris draco after attaining certain rank. However I also recall her turning her back on us and running away. Not much else to say really, other than the thing being identical from my memory."
Hina616: "oopsies ^^;'well if it was I never got any notice then, it certainly wasn't mentioned at any meetings anyways."
Ezekiel_thoth333: "Two things right now, how did you find that location on your own, and how did you find that necklace? Also this is being reported to the elders as we speak, you may or may not be reprimanded."
Igaluk123: "I honestly can't remember the last meaningful thing I did outside the holy building, so congratulations I suppose."
_jinn_: "All children please disregard Jarilos words as he does not know what he is speaking of, we have never had a member by the name of lunaris draco and she was never in possession of any necklace. You should cease speaking out of turn Jarilo, you are a very old member but your loud and misguided ways are beginning to lead to your undoing."
Losna152: "What do you mean out of state? We only have the meeting grounds, the holy building, what the hell are you talking about?"
Hina616: "Why would I to get in trouble??? I don't understand, Iwas just trying to make myself better for serving Luna."
SheepDog: "Calm down friend, we have some out of state members, I mean I thought we all already knew that given the fact that one of our admins is not even in the country atm but take it easy man. Don't worry, you haven't been with us too long and what you did is a very minor offense that you didn't even know about I am almost positive you will be fine, they might yell at you a bit though heh heh."
MattR: "Hina you are most certainly going to be in a great deal of trouble, you will go immediately to the fishery location and you will leave that necklace there inside the building tonight. Upon your return to us you will immediately receive your punishment for this offense."
Hina616: "But that place is really scary at night and I don't wanna go there alone DX"

Summary

11/30/15 - "what there is to know as of right now" - Lunarchildren.com

I am keeping this private for the time being so only elder children can see this, I dont know whats happened to Mathew, and all our contact with the harbingers link has gone dark, WHY THE FUCK DID WE LET HIM DO IT!? WHY DID WE LET HIM GET AWAY????
Either way there is no need to worry, its only a matter of time before Regiminis gets to him when he connects to the web. Also someone be sure to talk to Hunter about what happened with the necklace, that was our fucking ace in the hole, I dont understand how it got back into our hands like that but just letting the harbinger yank him out of here with it was a fucking mistake.

Summary

• Thoth vents his frustrations regarding the recent failure of Undecim Nocte 2015. Thoth questions what happened to the Crescent Moon Necklace, asking others to try and get in contact with Hunter.

Success!
Posted on March 2nd, 2016 at 3:16 PM by Ezekielthoth33

Glory to Luna my brothers and sisters! The Harbingers Link has been taken back to his original place of living at long last and soon there will be another chance for us to preform the rites! Our salvation is truly at hand and at last we will become angels and masters of this and all worlds! Near the end of april is when we must be prepared to make our move!

Until then we must do what we can to find Matt, he has not been seen since the November black out and he is a crucial part of what is to come! Just as well if anyone has seen douglas report to an elder immediately, he has not spoken to anyone or been seen for much too long. Finally, Saint is not to be spoken of until further notice, he is a traitor and seeks to do the unthinkable. This is all we know as he has escaped our sight, for now.

Summary

Father why have you forsaken us!? Luna why have you left us? What have we done wrong? Why were we unable to get to him at the most crucial time once more? Is this not what you wanted Father?! Why are we now being punished?! WHERE ARE YOU FATHER!? WHERE ARE YOU VINCENT!? LUNA WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO US!?

Summary

• Thoth questions why the Lunar Children failed to capture Tyler a second time.

9:44:07 PM Thoth33: "No."
9:44:10 PM Thoth33: "We must follow Father's teachings."
9:44:14 PM Thoth33: "We must heed his warnings."
9:44:21 PM Thoth33: "Even if we were to seek the Tenebris Link's aid, it would be impossible."
9:44:24 PM Thoth33: "Mat was our only reliable connection to them, and no one's heard from him since November."
9:44:28 PM Thoth33: "It seems to be more interested in the Harbinger's Link at the moment, anyway. "
9:44:32 PM Thoth33: "Nevertheless, if Auxiliatis were to return to assist the Harbingers, his powers would be vastly reduced."
9:44:39 PM Thoth33: "Regiminis has removed his mask and locked it within the Parallelos."
9:44:42 PM Thoth33: "Should he attempt to make a move against us, we would be able to quickly intersect him and neutralize him once more."
9:44:58 PM kuu_32: "And as for the necklace?"
9:45:01 PM kuu_32: "It's secured as well, correct?"
9:45:20 PM Thoth33: "Yes."
9:45:23 PM Thoth33: "I had jinn take care of it."
9:45:33 PM jinn: "Indeed. It is in a location no one will ever discover."

Summary

1:20:21 AM Thoth33: "Jinn."
1:20:24 AM Thoth33: "I have something vitally important I must ask of you."
1:20:33 AM Thoth33: "Forgive me for the suddenness of all this, but this is to remain only between the two of us."
1:20:59 AM jinn: "Very well."
1:21:12 AM Thoth33: "I want you to keep a close watch on Mat."
1:21:28 AM jinn: "For what reason?"
1:21:32 AM jinn: "Do you question his loyalty still?"
1:21:48 AM Thoth33: "The knowledge Regiminis and he have allowed us has been invaluable, and aside from that reckless stunt he pulled back in August, I've never had any reason to suspect him of any foul play."
1:21:52 AM Thoth33: "However"
1:22:22 AM Thoth33: "I'm concerned for him."
1:22:28 AM jinn: "In what way?"
1:22:28 AM Thoth33: "It's been evident for quite some time that he's become very interested in the Tenebris Link."
1:22:32 AM Thoth33: "Considering his family's history, that's not too surprising. "
1:22:35 AM Thoth33: "None of us ever suspected that Mat would have gone as far as to privately invoke it, though."
1:22:39 AM jinn: "So you're concerned he'll be harmed by Tenebris?"
1:22:43 AM Thoth33: "I'm concerned he'll fall under its control."
1:22:46 AM Thoth33: "I'm concerned for all of us."
1:22:49 AM Thoth33: "If any harm were to befall Mat, that would certainly be a tragedy."
1:22:52 AM Thoth33: "However, the larger concern here is our mission."
1:22:54 AM Thoth33: "Father Vincent has repeatedly warned us of its mischievous demeanor."
1:22:58 AM Thoth33: "He is darkness."
1:23:03 AM Thoth33: "A loathsome ally"
1:23:08 AM Thoth33: "Created by Mother as described in the legend."
1:23:12 AM Thoth33: "We mustn't become reliant on such darkness, else we shall become consumed by it."
1:23:24 AM jinn: "I understand your concern, but with all due respect, I believe your fears are unfounded."
1:23:28 AM Thoth33: "Unfounded?"
1:23:30 AM Thoth33: "I know you saw the conversation in the IRC earlier."
1:23:32 AM Thoth33: "Were you not unsettled!?"
1:23:35 AM Thoth33: "Children were praising the Tenebris Link!"
1:23:39 AM Thoth33: "Several were asking for his blessings as if he were a holy angel of Luna!"
1:23:52 AM jinn: "Could Tenebris not be described as such? The legend describes him as a necessary component in Luna's plans. He is a trickster, that is certain, but I also believe that he is perhaps the most misunderstood figure within our teachings."
1:24:11 AM Thoth33: "IT is not something that can be handled lightly."
1:24:14 AM Thoth33: "Father has strictly forbidden us from ever interacting with IT."
1:24:17 AM Thoth33: "IT is a being of pure malevolence that Mother begrudgingly constructed to counterbalance the light in accordance to the dyad."
1:24:20 AM jinn: "Yes, I'm well versed on Alphonse's theories. However, that's all they are."
1:24:21 AM jinn: "Theories."
1:24:27 AM Thoth33: "These studies have built the foundation of our teachings for years."
1:24:30 AM Thoth33: "Are you questioning Mother herself!?"
1:24:33 AM jinn: "No."
1:24:35 AM jinn: "I'm questioning our understanding of her. As the overseer of the library, that's my duty."
1:24:42 AM jinn: "Don't misunderstand me."
1:24:46 AM jinn: "My intention is not to undermine our teachings, but instead to refine them. I'm simply interested in the truth more than upholding the beliefs of a former overseer."
1:25:15 AM Thoth33: "Fine."
1:25:18 AM Thoth33: "I apologize for accusing you."
1:25:22 AM Thoth33: "But this continued reliance on the Tenebris Link is something I simply can't allow."
1:25:25 AM Thoth33: "It completely goes against everything Father has warned us about."
1:25:32 AM jinn: "I, too, think it's a bad idea to rely on him. However, I believe it would be foolish to completely isolate ourselves from him."
1:25:36 AM Thoth33: "Then what do you suggest?"
1:25:52 AM jinn: "There is still so much we don't know about Tenebris. He is the most elusive and mysterious figure we know of that has a direct connection to Luna herself. There is a wealth of untapped knowledge here, and for the first time in documented history, we have someone within our ranks who can retrieve it."
1:26:12 AM jinn: "I propose we allow Mat to continue these "secret" communions with Tenebris. We will continue acting none the wiser, pretending to buy Mat's story that he hasn't heard from Tenebris since August. In reality, the room will be bugged. We will record anything that transpires during these invocations with secret cameras."
1:26:20 AM jinn: "This way, we can prevent any unforeseen disasters far in advance while still learning more about Tenebris. "
1:26:24 AM jinn: "Just as well, listening in on Mat's supposed "private" conversations with him should quell any lingering fears you may have regarding his true allegiance."
1:26:31 AM Thoth33: "As I said before, that won't be necessary. "
1:26:34 AM Thoth33: "But to secretly record a fellow Elder within our own holy building…"
1:26:40 AM jinn: "Did you not first propose this method yourself regarding Saint?"
1:26:44 AM Thoth33: "Saint is an outsider. "
1:26:49 AM Thoth33: "Suspicion has surrounded him ever since those chats were discovered last year."
1:26:51 AM Thoth33: "But Mat"
1:26:53 AM Thoth33: "I never thought it would have come to this."
1:27:00 AM jinn: "You mustn't fear the truth, Ezekiel."
1:27:05 AM jinn: "This is an opportunity for us to gain a better understanding of Mother, Tenebris, and the intentions of our fellow child."
1:27:10 AM jinn: "We can't allow this chance to slip by."
1:27:32 AM Thoth33: "It pains me to say it, but you're right."
1:27:34 AM Thoth33: "This must be done."

Summary

• Thoth and Jinn discuss Mat's continued private meetings with Tenebris. Thoth is very much against any interactions with Tenebris, but Jinn convinces him to allow these meetings to continue, should they be able to learn more about him.
