Judas Blackthorne

Judas Blackthorne is a main character on the season Blackchapel. He is a former member of the Apostles who leaves to join Eli Thomas' party.

Early Life
Judas Blackthorne was born Matthias to a white missionary and a Native American woman. He did not have much knowledge of his tribe since his mother was killed in at the Devil's Doorstep in the slaughter led by Silver Shot. He eventually joined the Apostles, hoping to do good. He had betrayed them once before leaving them for good and joining Eli Thomas, earning him the name 'Judas'.

Blackchapel
Unable to bring himself to kill a man who the Savior has marked to be killed, Judas joined Eli Thomas' party. He is shown to be very religious, which is what led him to first join with the Apostles. At first not trusted due to his previous allegiances, he does not prove to have much knowledge of the Savior or the Apostles. Still, he becomes an invaluable and trusted member of the team.

When Silver confesses to what happened at the Devil's Doorstep, Judas is initially angry, and then wrestles with his emotions towards Silver.

He is given a chance to learn more about his Native American heritage when he meet members of his mother's tribe who escaped the slaughter similarly to him. At the end of the season, he goes to live with them.
