The young blue eyed, blond haired American boy was found and raised by the monks of Lha-I-Ha, and showed unusual promise as a student of the art of art of Gom-Pa. He took the tests of Potala, and demonstrated power rivaling that of the 300 year old Dhali Lama who raised him.

Thun-Dohr demonstrated the following abilities:

*to teleport himself over great distances in the blinks of an eye, disappearing within rings of fire;

*to communicate with people through astral projection;

*telekinetic powers

*the ability to cast illusions through mental suggestion;

*to use the power of his mind to make himself immune to the heat of flames;

*to put himself into a state of suspended animation in order to survive being encased in ice, or being placed in an airless vacuum;

Thun-Dohr eventually left the monastery to track down the evil Sin Khaii, an outcast lama who had stolen Pandora's Box and planned to bring humanity to its knees.
