Thomas "Tom" Okanawe is best friends with both Maddy Smith and Shannon Kelly, but as the series progresses he becomes closer to Shannon as Maddy is hanging out with Rhydian Morris more often than them.

Tom's parents don't live together, and he has a half-sister called Grace Okanawe (who is a rather sickly child). Sometimes on weekends, his dad visits him. He is let down when his dad isn't able to come to events because of Grace. His dad always talks about her, and Tom gets annoyed and jealous. Tom is a massive fan of Manchester United. In "The Call of the Wild," Tom becomes concerned about the Bradlington High football team's lack of quality players. In the episode "Family Ties," Tom is let down by a text from his dad, and when he later shows up at school, Tom expresses his sad and angry feelings by leaving and going off into the woods. He is found later, sitting on a bench attached to a tree by Maddy, and, after talking to her, he feels better and has a chat with his dad.

Tom's parents are both doctors. He is dyslexic, which leads to him struggling with English. Tom enjoys football (soccer) and was named player of the year the previous year. He bonds with most of his team and is on good terms with them. Tom is loyal to the Wolfblood pack, and in season 1, he told Maddy about Shannon and her theory. He tried helping Shannon prove it right in "Occam's Razor" and was a good friend to both of them. In "Top Dog," he tried not to join groups that pack members were in because he didn't want to betray any of them.

Thomas -3

In Season 1, Tom has a crush on Maddy, which is made apparent in the episode "Maddy Cool"; he says he sees her differently. He tries asking her out in the episode, but when he sees Maddy and Rhydian in a compromising position, he storms out. He tries making a move on her in the episode "Wolfsbane," but is let down again.

Tom seems to get along with Rhydian for the most part, but is seemingly jealous of his relationship with Maddy and how quickly they became friends. He seems to get along with him more after they win the football championship game.

Tom and Shannon are good friends throughout the series. They shared their concerns, his being his crush on Maddy and her being the Beast. Tom only sees her in a friendly light, though in the episode "Maddy Cool," when Shannon walks out all done up, he seems awe-struck by her, suggesting he may have a crush on her.

Tom is portrayed by Kedar Williams-Stirling.

Series 2[]

In series 2, Tom is still close friends with Maddy, Shannon, and Rhydian. He helps with Maddy's plan in beating Alric and his pack by photographing the trio with their wolf features visible, forcing Alric to leave. He also becomes friends with Jana. In Dances With Wolfbloods, it is hinted that he may have a crush on Jana, because he playfully growls at her at the start of the episode, and Tom puts his arm round Jana at the end. In the finale of Series 2,.  Tom is upset when Maddy leaves with the rest of her family.  He also helps Shannon get Rhydian to ask Maddy out, showing he is finally over his crush on Maddy.

Series 3[]

Tom and his friends are all sad about Maddy leaving. He finds a kindred spirit in Kay, since they surprisingly share a connection. In The Cure, after he accidentally injected himself with Wolfblood DNA, he discovers to have gained the ability to use Wolfblood powers thanks to a mysterious serum, albeit briefly after enduring some side effects he will be cured with the help of Alex Kincaid.

Trivia[]

  • The name Tom is derived from the name Thomas, which is of Aramaic origin, and means "twin". Okanawe is possibly an alternate spelling of Okinawa, which means "Rope in the Open Sea".
