Personal Information
Appearance
Personality
Tobias is a bit of a contradiction.
There are many that would describe Tobias as an odious, petty little man, critical of everyone and everything that passes under his beady little eyes. His manner swings from caustic and abrasive to crotchety and cantankerous. If he were an animal (as some of his unkinder critics insist he is), he would be a cockroach. Mol by name, mole by nature; Tobias has, most often, been described as unfavourable vermin. The weight and scope of his glowering disapproval has become legendary in Sydney and elsewhere.
If Tobias were a drink, his personality would be described as milky tea; bland, tasteless, inoffensive, and unsatisfying for its lack of content.
