Lance can be easily described as an arrogant son of a bitch and is described as that and more colorfully than that often. He can be an amazing and brilliant tactician, able to see far beyond the obvious and get to the heart of a problem. If he is truly arrogant (and he is), it is because he has unwavering confidence in his own abilities. He likes to think he commands respect, but more often than not he commands more fear than respect. He holds himself in very tight control, having a [[demon]] bound to his soul it is always a danger that he will lose that control and release the demon to wreak havoc on the world in his own body. He is at times unstable but tries very hard to be a better person, especially after the death of his 2nd wife in 2018. He doesn't believe there is any problem he cannot overcome and when all else fails he shoots first and asks questions later. His method of dealing with conflict is to have an overwhelming show of force. | |||
Personally he dislikes most people and hates vampires. Normal people do not interest him at all, he does not like those who have no idea what goes on in the world around them. Vampires have always been a specific target for him, he would very much love to kill all of them on sight. He does not, however, as he has found them to be damned useful at times and occasionally one comes along that seems special and breaks through the hatred. | |||
Lance | Professionally, Lance holds a very powerful permission and does not like to answer to anyone. Though he's not stupid, he knows he has people to answer to and works hard to stay under the radar, even when he goes off on a personal mission somewhere he is careful to set the stage and do as he likes. He has a long-standing but low-key war with the CIA, not trusting them to know their ass from a hole in the ground, but they are often forced to work together and a person cannot burn every bridge so he tolerates them as much as he has to. | ||

Lance has lived an exciting life, appearing to be in his mid 20's most don't realize his true age. Joining the military during the early years of Vietnam, being transferred to the Special Projects division early on. He has lived in a varied list of places including France, Germany, Vietnam, England, Australia, Russia, and the USA.

Later Lance became involved with several ''creatures of the night'', the [[vampire]] Uriah and another called Spook. Though after some amount of time with each, they both left him. The conflicts between his work for the US Navy and relationships with the supernatural girls became too stressful to continue the relationship each time. Eventually he met another woman, Kylaria McNalley, whom stole his heart during one of the darkest periods in his life. He married her in 2015. | |||
After only 3 years, in 2018, Kylaria died. Expecting her to come back to life -- she carried within her the essence of the Phoenix -- he was not terribly hurt at first. Then, the essence departed from her mortal body and left leaving her dead. It took him a long time to get over her, not until 2021 did he really start to live again. At that point, he had a smattering of partners during that dark time, including a Ghoul and very nearly a reaper. On the eve of 2022 he found himself in possession of a living doll, a servant from the [[Serenity Asylum]] that he purchased from them. The doll as interesting, undoubtably feminine but he soon learned there were two distinct personalities at work inside her, Cylindria and [[Rebecca]]. They wanted to serve him and so he used the Aeternexa and bonded to them both, also giving them the means to change shape and look normal -- and to be whatever he wanted them to be. On their first night of pleasure together, the two split into twin dolls, each his equal slave and worshiping him. | |||

Special Abilities
After the experimentation on his body Lance did find that his stamina and strength had increased but at a cost. While his body and mind were both sharper and could do more he began to be troubled with increasingly erratic behavior. His psionic abilities expanded a great deal but at a cost. The more Psionic Energy he used the more difficult it would be for him to hold onto his sanity. Voices and other hallucinations would haunt him in the early days until he learned to control himself. more.
In the end, his Psionic abilities come at a cost, the more depleted his mental energy becomes the harder it is to keep the insanity from taking over. If he fails to keep this in check, his Id will become the dominant force until he can recover.

Special Projects
Early in his career he was transferred to Special Projects. At this time he was enlisted in an experimental program to use supernatural forces to augment a soldiers abilities.
