Thantos is a powerful wizard who owns a multi-million dollar corporation and has power in both the human world and Coventry. Jealous of the power the twins held, he attempted to kill them several times following their father's death and removal to the human world, but failed each time. He asks Miranda to marry him towards the series' end but she refuses. As punishment for his treatment of the twins, he is ignored by everyone in Conventry for the remainder of his life. He was, at one time, involved with Beatrice Hazelitt, and had a daughter, Ileana, who he abandoned.

When the twins' location is discovered, he appears as the Darkness once again and attempts to kill them. However, their combined magic proves too much for him and he is destroyed.
