Thailog is a clone of the clan leader Goliath (note: Thailog is basically Goliath spelled backwards.). He was created by Servarius at the instruction of David Xanatos (episode "Double Jeopardy"). One year after his creation, he played Goliath, Xanatos, and Servarius against one another masterfully. He cleverly faked his own death and escaped with twenty million dollars. He didn't reappear until the episode "Sanctuary". Once again, he plays two people against one another, for the purpose of gaining more wealth. The two people in this case, were Demona and Macbeth. He combined the money he took from Xanatos with the treasure Demona had hoarded and the two created the company Nightstone Unlimited. They plotted for Demona, in the guise of Dominique Destine, to marry Macbeth so that Demona had rights to Macbeth's estate. Thailog planned that if Macbeth died, then Demona would inherit his estate. He knew that if both were to die then everything in Demona's name would go to him. Thanks to Elisa, Thailog's plans were foiled. Thailog's next appearance was "The Reckoning". Demona and Thailog are still together and they planned to do away with Goliath's clan by creating clones of the clan to defeat them. Thailog's relationship with Demona crashed and burned when he endeavored to destroy Demona's daughter, Angela. It was believed that he perished in a rollar coaster fire.
Such was not the case. Thailog's final appearance was the episode "Genesis Undone". In conjunction with Servarius, he received what he believed was the antidote for the clone virus he had contracted. In reality, Servarius had given him a hypo that contained an advanced version of the virus. Thailog faked taking the hypo because he was to see if Servarius would betray him. He returned to Servarius' home in the midst of a battle between the gargoyles and the clone, Little Anton. Before permanently petrifying, he gave Goliath the hypo containing the virus, which petrified Little Anton. Thailog and the rest of the clones are currently perched on a building, awaiting the night that they might possibly live again.
