| − | Tobal is bald and wears a leather cap.{{book ref|mb7|30}}{{book ref|mb7|34}} He tends to jump to conclusions, makes some outlandish claims, and comes across as a crackpot to some people.{{book ref|mb7|29}}{{book ref|mb7|33}} He is a good scientist, but because of his eccentricity, people refuse to take his claims seriously.{{book ref|mb7|30}} However, overall he is a good man and is not cowed by having the [[Set]] after him, but simply determined to share what he knows.{{book ref|mb7|30}}{{book ref|mb7|34}} |

||
| − | Tobal worked at [[Basin Tires]] first as a chemist specializing in rubber, and then researching chemical propellants to help design a rocket until he was fired from his job for "erratic behavior" around the year {{date|343|PC}}.{{book ref|mb7|29}}{{book ref|mb7|33}} He formed a lawsuit against the company that was subsequently dismissed, and around the same time he tried to raise awareness of his employer's deeds by creating pamphlets and going door to door at his apartment complex. He was arrested for disturbing the peace at the apartments, taken back to the local police station, and then released after he calmed down.{{book ref|mb7|29}} The following year, he decided to go to the editor of the ''[[Sentinel of Truth]]'' and tell her about his former employer's schemes. Because [[Maraga]] didn't believe him at first, Tobal began stealing evidence to show her. By {{date|348|PC}}, Maraga and Tobal were meeting nightly in the basement of the offices for the ''Sentinel of Truth'', piecing together evidence of the [[Set]]'s actions.{{book ref|mb7|33}} Tobal warned Maraga that one evening he simply wouldn't show up to their meeting, a prediction which came to pass when the Set showed up at his apartment and killed him.{{book ref|mb7|30}}{{book ref|mb7|33}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | About two weeks after Tobal's disappearance, [[Marsh]] heard of it and informed [[Marasi]], [[Wax]], and [[Wayne]].{{book ref|mb7|28}} They followed up on the lead, which resulted in their confrontation with Maraga Dulcet in which they put together the true nature of the Set's plans.{{book ref|mb7|29}} |
