"No, I think I'm better than everyone else. An opinion backed up by ample evidence."

—Lance Thomas

Lance was the head of Solas Tempus but after his abduction and subsequent return, Sal D'Amico has retained that posting with the blessing of Lance himself. After discussion with the leadership both civilian and otherwise following his rehabilitation, Lance has accepted the rank of Admiral and is now serving as 2nd in command of Solas Tempus overseeing covert operations of all types. This arrangement leaves Siv Quinn as head of Temporal Command and other leadership positions in place. His official role within the organization is not symbolic however, it was agreed an experienced Temporal Operative should coordinate efforts across the entire organization. Historically he has preferred to stay in the field as much as possible, but recently this has changed. After the death of Candy Poole, his ex-wife he has started to go through a sort of crisis of faith in his choices over the years and is looking at how to change the way things have become with him and those closest to him.

He tends to be a complete asshole when he wants something, at times using his authority and power to get what he wants with little regard for others. This contrasts sharply with the lengths he is willing to go in order to keep anyone on his team safe. He has been disciplined several times for taking unnecessary risks and overriding the direct orders of the PERDOC Council.

After his rehabilitation and return Lance has seen less and less of his wife Drem Confusco, something that bothers him greatly. The two have had a severe breakdown in communication and as such Lance has started to fall back into hold habits of spending more time in the field. He stays in constant contact with Solas Tempus via his assistant Excalibur Kaeth. While he is entitled to take command of nearly any vessel he chooses he has remained only using his personal ship, the STV Dragons Fire. His capture and return have left significant scars on him and his relationships with his wife, friends, and others.

Pet

Lance has a pet dog, a Queensland Heeler that followed him back to his ship one day on a mission to 2012 in the western United States on Earth. The dog just seemed to attach itself to him and invite himself into Lance's life. No one can really say why, but to this day the dog, named Squash, and Lance travel together quite a bit. Trained in several different categories, Lance has taught the dog to respond to whistles and hand signals, in addition to the normal command words. Squash is very smart, for a dog, and has a communicator and tracking device attached to his collar.

History

Lance was born in California on Earth in 2322. He joined Starfleet Academy when he was 18 and made quite the name for himself. Section 31 recruited him early on for surveillance in 2348. His first posting was of their choosing and a minor but long term posting. As a young Lt. Commander, that same year, in he was forced into a more covert lifestyle when a tragic accident caused him an incredible amount of damage to his body and even parts of his brain. Section 31 repaired the damage using cybernetics throughout his body.

Section 31 listed him as dead officially and he was put primarily on wet-work. Assassinations, covert operations that the main of Starfleet would never approve of. During this time, he grained the trust and raised to the rank of Captain when he was given his own team. With this time, Section 31 used a slingshot method to accomplish time travel. When doing this they enabled basic temporal shielding around their ship for the project. The project was supposed to be for covert research, but Thomas thought something was up for sure - it just didn't feel right.

Early Starfleet Career

One of his first postings after graduation in 2345 was assigned to one of the lesser used space-docks in far Earth orbit, monitoring traffic in the graveyard shift. The job was very slow and frequently he and another person posted there would count space-junk that floated by trying to predict how many objects they would see. The pair would also make up short narratives about how particular pieces of junk got into space and why it was floating out there.

Before the Accident

2345: Lance Thomas joins Starfleet Academy, driven by his passion for exploration and desire to make a difference in the galaxy. He excels in his studies and demonstrates exceptional skills in leadership and problem-solving.
2346: Lance undergoes intensive training at Starfleet Academy, immersing himself in various disciplines such as starship operations, tactical maneuvers, and diplomatic protocols. He distinguishes himself as a capable and promising cadet.
2347: Lance's dedication and outstanding performance earn him commendations from his instructors and fellow cadets. He establishes a reputation for his resourcefulness, adaptability, and ability to remain calm under pressure.
2348: As a newly commissioned officer, Lance embarks on his first assignment. However, tragedy strikes when he is involved in a devastating accident that leaves him critically injured. The incident results in severe damage to his body and even parts of his brain.
2348: In an effort to save Lance's life, Section 31, a covert intelligence agency within Starfleet, steps in. They intervene to repair the damage using cybernetics, replacing damaged limbs and implementing advanced technologies to restore his physical functions.

It is in 2348 that Section 31 officially lists Lance as deceased, effectively erasing his existence from official records. They manipulate his identity to mask his involvement with the agency and put him on a new path—one of secrecy, espionage, and covert operations.

Lance's near-death experience and subsequent cybernetic enhancements mark a turning point in his life. He emerges from the ordeal as a changed individual, both physically and mentally, ready to embrace a covert lifestyle as an operative for Section 31.

Origins of Solas Tempus / Blue Team

Everything started to change for the newly formed team. The scientists reported that the main computer libraries were requiring too many updates, and updates for established historical events. After doing a lot of off-the-books research, it was discovered that events being observed by the team were being altered by another force. Not only that, but evidence suggested that other events were being altered, then changed back. The only conclusion was two opposing forces were fighting to control past events. They were ordered off the project when Thomas started to ask questions.

This turn of events eventually lead to a good portion of the team going AWOL, culminating when Section 31 admitted to starting a temporal conflict, altering events from the past for covert benefit of Section 31 interest. The conflict arose from a reportedly unknown force opposing some of the Section 31 alterations - but not all. It is still unknown exactly what Thomas said or did to Section 31 to both secure their temporal operations and allow the team to go AWOL without repercussions.

Career with Section 31

Lance Thomas joined Section 31 in 2349 and underwent extensive covert operations training. He excelled in his studies and training, catching the attention of Section 31. From 2356 to 2359, Lance carried out covert operations, including surveillance, espionage, and targeted assassinations. However, in 2360, he began questioning the morality of Section 31's actions and decided to expose their covert temporal manipulation and altered historical events. In 2362, Lance and like-minded individuals went AWOL from Starfleet, forming their own organization, Solas Tempus.

2354: Lance Thomas continues his studies at Starfleet Academy becoming a specialist in various subjects related to tactics, intelligence gathering, and combat. He is chosen to participate in a special covert operations training program.
2355: Lance completes an intensive covert operations training program, which includes advanced combat techniques, espionage tactics, infiltration and extraction methods, and advanced surveillance techniques. His exceptional performance during this training catches the attention of Section 31.
2356-2359: Lance carries out a series of covert operations for Section 31. These operations involve surveillance, espionage, and targeted assassinations to advance Section 31's agenda.
2360: Lance begins to question the morally ambiguous actions of Section 31. He becomes disillusioned with their methods and realizes the need to expose their activities.
2361: Lance gathers evidence of Section 31's covert temporal manipulation and altered historical events. He shares his findings with trusted allies within Starfleet, raising concerns about Section 31's actions.
2362: Lance, along with a group of like-minded individuals, decides to go AWOL from Starfleet and form their own organization, which will eventually become Solas Tempus.

Formation of Solas Tempus

With their trust in Section 31 shattered and a shared desire to expose their dark agenda, Lance Thomas and his small team took a daring and audacious step. Commandeering the USS Rising Sun, they went AWOL from Starfleet, effectively severing their ties with the organization that had been infiltrated by Section 31.

Using their extensive knowledge of covert operations, Lance and his team skillfully eluded Starfleet pursuit, leveraging their covert tactics to stay one step ahead. Their actions sent shockwaves through the intelligence community, leaving Section 31 in a state of uncertainty.

As Lance and his team operated in the shadows, they began to lay the foundation for what would eventually become Solas Tempus. Recognizing the need for a united front against Section 31 and other threats, they sought to create an organization dedicated to protecting the integrity of the timeline and defending the innocent.

In this new endeavor, Lance found himself becoming even more deeply involved with his subordinate, Candy Poole. Recognizing her exceptional skills and leadership qualities, Lance promoted Candy from Commander to Captain, entrusting her with significant responsibilities within the budding organization. However, tensions soon emerged as the two leaders had differing perspectives on how to organize and structure the growing group. They clashed over matters of strategy, chain of command, and the overall direction of Solas Tempus.

As Solas Tempus continued to expand, encompassing individuals from various backgrounds and skill sets, Lance realized the need to relinquish ultimate control over the organization. He made the decision to step back and focus on leading the temporal action arm of Solas Tempus, known as "Blue Team," leveraging his expertise in time travel and temporal operations.

Meanwhile, Candy assumed the role of the organization's overall leader, outranking Lance as Fleet Admiral. Despite their differences, they recognized the importance of unity and collaboration in the face of a common enemy. Lance's expertise in temporal operations complemented Candy's strategic vision, allowing them to work together in safeguarding the timeline and leading Solas Tempus.

Together, they forged a formidable alliance, bringing together a diverse group of individuals committed to upholding justice and protecting the integrity of the spacetime continuum. Solas Tempus stood as a beacon of hope and resilience, dedicated to countering Section 31's machinations and ensuring a better future for all.

Propulsion Accident

Using the USS Rising Sun as a test bed for new technologies, Admiral Thomas personally oversaw a critical test of a prototype drive system that would eventually become the Gravitational Displacement Drive (GDD), a centerpiece of the organization's time protection efforts. However, during the test, an unforeseen malfunction occurred, resulting in the Rising Sun being displaced by trillions of light-years and ending up in an entirely different galaxy.

Stranded and damaged, the vessel sent out a general distress call, which was answered by a Super Star Destroyer, the flagship of the Galactic Empire's Imperial Navy. While initially believed to have been destroyed with the loss of all hands, Captain Sal D'Amico, then in command of the Rising Sun, refused to abandon the search for Admiral Thomas.

Once aboard the Imperial vessel, Lance encountered Natashia, the Empress of the Galactic Empire, who commanded the ship at the time. Showing unexpected compassion, Natashia took in the stranded crew of the Rising Sun, providing them with supplies and assistance as they worked together to find a way back home. During their time together, Admiral Thomas and the Empress found themselves drawn to each other, forming a connection that grew rapidly.

However, unknown to Lance, the Empress issued covert orders for the crew of the Rising Sun to be eliminated, intending to attribute their deaths to a failure of the damaged ship's propulsion system. The crew began to suspect the situation was more precarious when unauthorized Imperial personnel, including engineers and troopers, were discovered aboard their ship.

Realizing the peril they faced, Admiral Thomas commanded a covert incursion by members of his crew onto the Imperial vessel, seeking to uncover Natashia's true intentions. Leveraging the Empire's unfamiliarity with transporter technology, Lance was able to extract his crew members swiftly once they were detected. Despite his growing affection for the Empress, Lance knew he could not overlook the dire circumstances. His priority was to return his crew home, and he refused to remain under the Empire's control.

Equipped with another prototype drive system, the Gravitational Displacement Drive (GDD), aboard the Rising Sun, Lance decided to take decisive action. As tensions reached a breaking point, the Imperial vessel attempted to employ an interdictor field generator to trap the Rising Sun, creating an intense artificial gravity well. In response, Admiral Thomas activated the GDD, utilizing a gravity well to initiate a jump through space, a feat that had never been tested on a scale larger than a light-year.

The resulting maneuver proved devastating. The gravitational displacement generated by the Rising Sun crushed and destroyed the Super Star Destroyer from within its own hangar bay. Though Lance knows that Natashia survived, they have not communicated since. Captain D'Amico managed to recover the damaged Rising Sun in an uncharted system along its original flight path, with failing life support but with all hands intact.

Rumors persist that Admiral Thomas retains the precise settings required to use the GDD and potentially return to the uncharted galaxy where Natashia originates. However, he has refrained from doing so thus far. In 2381, a modulated subspace signal was transmitted from a Solas Tempus-owned space telescope directed at Natashia's galaxy. The contents of the signal remain unknown, as no official record of its transmission exists, except for an anomaly in the telescope array's transmission logs.

It is important to note that Natashia's actions should be viewed as a product of the tyrannical system she operates within, rather than depicting her as inherently evil. Both Lance and Natashia, products of their respective systems, found a deep connection due to their shared experiences and perspectives.

Marriage to Candy Poole

Lance Thomas and Candy Poole's marriage was a tempestuous union marked by profound love and unyielding clashes. Their shared passion and determination often led them to collide, each unwilling to back down. Amidst the storm, Candy became pregnant, unwavering in her commitment to balance motherhood and her high-ranking position within Solas Tempus. However, their marriage faced a turning point when a mission emerged that required Lance's assistance but carried considerable risks.

Despite Lance's reservations, Candy adamantly insisted on participating in the mission. Struggling to find common ground, Lance reluctantly facilitated her involvement, unable to sway her unwavering resolve. Tragedy struck when Candy was injured, leading to the heartbreaking loss of their unborn child. The weight of the miscarriage cast an irreparable shadow over their marriage, ultimately becoming the catalyst for its dissolution.

The devastating loss of their baby severed the fragile threads that bound them together. Grief and blame intertwined, creating an insurmountable chasm between Lance and Candy. The pain and guilt they both carried over the miscarriage and its connection to the mission proved to be a fracture they could not overcome. Their once-deep love was eclipsed by sorrow and regret, leading them down separate paths, forever altered by the tragedy that ended their marriage.

Miscarriage

Within the tapestry of Lance Thomas' personal history, there exists a painful chapter that continues to haunt him. It is a tale of deep remorse and self-blame stemming from his ex-wife Candy's tragic miscarriage, an event that unfolded on a mission he had authorized. Despite Candy's insistence on participating, Lance carried the weight of responsibility, tormented by the belief that his decision had led to the loss they endured.

The miscarriage became a profound source of guilt for Lance, the tendrils of blame entangling his thoughts and emotions. He questioned his judgment, replaying the mission's events in his mind, endlessly scrutinizing the choices he had made. The loss of their unborn child became a stark reminder of the fragile nature of life and the burdens of leadership he bore.

This painful experience served as a catalyst for Lance's growth and introspection. It fueled his commitment to protect and cherish his family, driving him to create a safe and nurturing environment for his children with Kaylanna. Through their power exchange dynamic and the unwavering support of his partner, he sought solace and redemption, learning to forgive himself for past mistakes while striving to be a loving and attentive father to his daughters.

While the pain of Candy's miscarriage remains etched in Lance's heart, it also serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life and the importance of cherishing every moment with those he loves. His journey toward self-forgiveness and healing is an ongoing process, one that he navigates with the support of his family, drawing strength from the lessons learned and embracing the profound joys that his twin daughters bring into his life.

Summary of Time with Solas Tempus

Year(s)	Operation Name	Description
2360 / 1869	Operation Iron Fistn	One of Lance's earliest missions involved detecting an aberrant temporal signature in 1869. To avoid detection, Lance and his small team decided to forego technological disguises and instead blend in using non-technological means. After weeks of searching, they located the source of the signature and secured the technology responsible. Further investigation led them to India in the same year, where they apprehended an individual from the future who had unintentionally traveled back in time and was using advanced technology to amass power. The individual was brought back to the present for legal proceedings.
2360 / 1895	Operation Thunderstrike	Tasked with observing a potential target in 1895 London, Lance obtained a gold locket from a street merchant to maintain his cover while tailing the suspect. The mission was successful in exposing the enemy agent before their plans could be carried out. Unfortunately, the agent committed suicide while in custody, providing no further information.
2364 / 1968	Operation Blackout	Sent on a surveillance mission to 1968 Earth, Lance was tasked with infiltrating a gang organization suspected of using advanced technology from the future.

Operation Steel Serpent

Lance Thomas unknowingly fell into a meticulously laid trap orchestrated by the son of an old friend affiliated with the clandestine group known as the Midnight Riders. Imperial forces hailing from an alternate reality, aligned with the sinister organization Onyx, captured Lance on an icy planet. For a grueling 18 months, he endured captivity, subjected to psychological manipulation and physical confinement. It was a harrowing ordeal, where the boundaries of time and reality blurred, leaving Lance in a state of perpetual torment.

During his captivity, Lance's captors employed insidious methods to extract crucial information from his mind. They resorted to extreme measures, inducing a medically induced coma that allowed them to map the intricate neural pathways of his brain. Their ultimate goal was to unravel the closely guarded secrets of Solas Tempus, particularly the enigmatic Dimensional Fold Drive and the temporal operations of TEMPCOM. In this vulnerable state, Lance's subconscious became a battleground, where his thoughts, memories, and perceptions were manipulated to create a distorted and accelerated reality. Within the fabricated construct, he endured what felt like countless decades of isolation and torment, leaving deep scars on his psyche.

After a daring rescue operation led by Solas Tempus forces, Lance was brought back to safety. However, the wounds inflicted during his captivity ran deep, both physically and mentally. The traumatic experience left him profoundly changed, struggling to reconcile the fragmented pieces of his identity. Months of intensive recovery followed, with Lance engaging in counseling and therapy to navigate the aftermath of his ordeal. Though he managed to resume an official position within Solas Tempus, his closest confidants and allies noticed a marked difference in his demeanor and outlook. The weight of the trauma he endured had left an indelible mark on his soul, forever altering the course of his life and his perception of the world around him.

Operation Ghost Recon

Motivated by a coded message informing him of the death of his former mentor, Jenny Rebecca Courter, Lance Thomas embarks on an intricate and multifaceted investigation aboard the STV Dragons Fire. Venturing into uncharted space, Lance's quest takes him to alien planets and obscure outposts, far removed from the familiar territories of known civilizations.

Each stop along his journey unveils fragments of the enigmatic puzzle surrounding Jenny's demise. Lance's extensive knowledge of her life, garnered through years of mentorship and close association, proves invaluable as he navigates the labyrinthine intricacies of her world. From her various aliases, such as Jenny or Lady J, to her renowned reputation for weaving tales that conceal underlying truths, Lance uncovers a complex tapestry of intrigue.

On these alien worlds, Lance encounters a diverse array of inhabitants, each with their own perspectives on Jenny and the circumstances leading to her death. As he delves deeper into the investigation, Lance grapples with the complexities of her personality, recognizing her fierce loyalty to her chosen family and her unwavering commitment to protecting the innocent. Yet, he also confronts her morally ambiguous nature and the potential psychological issues that colored her actions.

Throughout his odyssey, Lance's determination to uncover the truth remains unwavering. With each revelation, he gains insight into the depths of Jenny's character and the events that led to her untimely demise. At each unknown outpost, Lance unearths new leads, confronts unexpected challenges, and carefully pieces together the fragmented puzzle of her life and death.

Ultimately, as Lance traversed uncharted space in pursuit of justice and closure, he is forced to confront not only the truth about Jenny but also his own perceptions and assumptions. In his relentless search for answers, Lance embarks on a profound journey of self-discovery, grappling with the weight of his mentor's legacy and the impact it has had on his own life and career within Solas Tempus.

Marriage to Kaylanna

On June 1st, 2386, following Lance Thomas' investigation into the death of his mentor Jenny Rebecca Courter, he entered into a profound and intimate connection with Kaylanna Ravel. Their relationship evolved into a unique and consensual power exchange dynamic, where Lance assumed the role of the dominant partner, referred to as "Master," and Kaylanna embraced her submissive nature.

Bound by love and trust, their power exchange dynamic extended beyond their personal lives and seeped into their professional realm. Kaylanna, a skilled medical professional, served aboard Lance's flagship, the STV Rautha Skathi, as its dedicated Chief Medical Officer. This arrangement allowed them to navigate the challenges of their power dynamic while maintaining a professional environment that fostered trust, respect, and open communication.

Children and Family

Their union blossomed into a family unit, with the couple joyously welcoming twin daughters, Ember Idalia Thomas and Eliane Fiammetta Thomas, into their lives. As Lance fulfilled his responsibilities as Fleet Admiral, his family became a cherished source of support and grounding, offering solace and a sense of stability amidst the ever-changing landscape of their roles within Solas Tempus.

Trapped by a Black Hole

In a harrowing turn of events in 2387, the STV Rautha Skathi, commanded by Lance Thomas, found itself ensnared at the perilous event horizon of a black hole. A stroke of fate shielded the ship from the black hole's cataclysmic forces, thanks to a formidable temporal force field. Within the confines of this temporal anomaly, time underwent a staggering distortion, warping the very fabric of reality.

As the Rautha Skathi remained trapped in this temporal bubble, the crew experienced a surreal existence. While mere microseconds ticked away outside the vessel, several years elapsed within the protective confines of the force field. The crew found themselves caught in a disorienting tangle of temporal anomalies, where the laws of time and aging were suspended.

The temporal distortion wreaked havoc upon the crew, distorting their experiences of time in unthinkable ways. Some crew members aged rapidly, undergoing an accelerated process that propelled them centuries into the future within a matter of seconds. Others regressed to infancy, their bodies reverting to a state of helpless innocence. Shockingly, a few unfortunate souls vanished entirely, reduced to naught but a cluster of primordial cells.

Among the most striking consequences of this temporal anomaly were Lance Thomas' twin daughters, Ember Idalia Thomas and Eliane Fiammetta Thomas. Caught in the temporal maelstrom, they experienced a bewildering duality of lives. In one existence, they retained vivid memories of being raised aboard the Rautha Skathi for sixteen to seventeen years, alongside their loving parents. Simultaneously, they carried memories of disembarking from the ship, stepping foot into a world that existed outside the temporal anomaly, as if living two distinct lives that coexisted in parallel.

The temporal accident surrounding the STV Rautha Skathi and the subsequent temporal distortions profoundly affected the crew, leaving an indelible mark on their lives and altering their perception of time, reality, and personal identity.

Home

Lance has a number of residences due to his work:

Trocara House

This is by all rights Lance's primary residence when not in space. Though it can go very long spans without ever being used, there is a small staff to upkeep the house and the grounds while he is away, that also makes sure the house is stocked and ready for him should he call ahead to say he's going to be there. The grounds themselves span about an acre of land, the house sits in the middle of it. The grounds have a variety of gardens and water features, not shown on the map below.

Soteria Beach House Layout

This home sits on Dehka Island (the main body for the Dehka Islands chain). The house sits right on the beach, with the covered patio going down right onto the sand.

Equipment Notes

He occasionally carries a pirate saber with him, when appropriate since obtaining the sword on a mission to the distant Earth past aboard a pirate ship. He has always liked it and decided to keep it and thus has made it part of his dress uniform, tough he is the only officer who uses it to his knowledge.

In another mission to the American West on Earth he was required to obtain a bullwhip from a local merchant, the whip is of high quality and he brought it back with him. It usually sits in his quarters as a decorative piece, but occasionally sees use for various purposes.

Similarly he obtained a flintlock in a dual aboard a British naval vessel when contesting for command of the vessel trying to avoid a catastrophe that would have sent ripples of alterations through the timeline.

Along with these historical items he also carries with him a Solar Crystal bound to him and set in his Starfleet Academy class ring. It is a deep flawless sapphire blue.

When appropriate he is also known to carry a .50 caliber, 5 round, S&W 500 from the early 21st century Earth, the large ammunition allows him to put specialized rounds that represent higher technology than the pistol appears to possess. This is often used when he needs to be armed when in that time period.
