Thane is the Deathless guardian of the Vault of Tears. He refers to himself as "shield of the Great Pact". He and the other three Blood Sentinels must be defeated in order to gain entrance to the Vault of Tears.

After defeating Thane the first time, the first seal is unlocked and all pathways to the other Blood Sentinels are unlocked. Thane is fought again after unlocking the other three seals, and entrance to the Vault of Tears is gained. Once inside, Thane intercepts Siris and battles him a third time. The fight is interrupted by the Worker of Secrets, who destabilizes Thane's Quantum Identity Pattern, killing him permanently.

Thane bears a resemblance to Ealoseum, a Deathless who was killed by Siris in the original Infinity Blade (Game).

Thane also wears the same armor as the Worker of Secrets. Donald mustard (staff of infinity blade story creators) hinted in a twitter "tweet" that there is a correlation between thane and the worker of secrets looking similar; but gave no idea on why they are connected.

Thane is the leader of his deathless family, the house of Ix.

Thane wields Byzanti as a shield and Gelder* as a light weapon. He can conjure ice magic in between attack chains, and attacks with his shield quite frequently. He is very easy to fight on earlier rebirths, but later in the game he is more challenging. Some of his fury chains, such as his quadruple shield bash is almost unavoidable unless blocked by a special gem or a heavy weapon.

• Note: The Gelder is available to the player as a dual weapon, but Thane uses it as a light weapon.
