Biography[]

Tomas is the leader of the five convicts (with Oscar, Andrew, Big Tiny, and Axel) in the prison who develops a hatred of Rick once he planned to take over the prison for his group. Convinced that this prison is the safest place to live, Tomas threatens Rick's group, claiming that the prison belongs to the prisoners, and Rick and his group must leave. After an intense argument, Rick agrees to attain a share of the cafeteria's food in exchange for helping the prisoners clear out walkers from a cell block for the prisoners to live in. During a fight with the walkers, Big Tiny is deeply scratched by a walker, prompting Tomas to kill him by brutally smashing his head in. Rick soon plans to confront Tomas as he gradually becomes aware that Daryl is his next target. unaware that he has overheard his conversation with Daryl over it. During another run-in with the walkers, Rick encounters Tomas when he attempts to kill him. An argumentative confrontation ensues with Tomas telling Rick that the walkers were all over him and Rick says he knows and that "s**t happens". Shortly afterwards, Rick slams his machete through Tomas' head, killing him.
