Tom

トム

Tom is an amateur Duelist whom Pegasus J. Crawford used to humiliate Bandit Keith. Although Tom was a fan of Duel Monsters, he did not receive enough allowance to build a strong Deck.
He was present in the audience when Pegasus and Keith arranged a Duel at the New York Duel Stadium. Before the Duel, Pegasus took time to gather children unfamiliar with the rules of Duel Monsters, including Tom, and explained how to play. While helping Tom, Pegasus said that he was impressed with how well Tom was doing. Tom told Pegasus that he could not afford to make a good Deck, so Pegasus gave him a Deck as a gift.
At the start of Pegasus' Duel with Keith, Pegasus scanned Keith's mind with his Millennium Eye. Before playing any cards, he wrote down some instructions on a piece of paper and called Tom over. Using the instructions, Tom defeated Keith.
Afterwards, Pegasus brought Tom over to the camera and invited people to buy Duel Monsters, a game where a beginner can beat a champion.
