| Personal History | Lucius was born on July 14, 2337 on Betazed, in the direct line of the Fourth of the Noble Houses. As was customary, he was promised at that time to Marianna Estvan, the daughter of a close associate of his father’s. There was some dismay at his decision to join Starfleet but given the growing tension in the sector, he felt duty-bound to join the ranks in protecting the peace. He graduated in 2356 with a specialty in Intelligence and Covert Ops. He served in various intell positions, his first undercover on Bajor working with the Resistance during the Cardassian Occupation. He remained on Bajor until 2361, then was passed on to other classified posts in some far-reaching areas. The Dominion was a growing threat and he had requested to return to Betazed. In 2374 the planet was conquered. For two years he was a fierce member of the resistance, sending back regular reports to Starfleet. His information on their prime installations proved to be a key piece of the puzzle and when the Romulan Empire switched sides, the Dominion presence on Betazed was wiped out along with a string of bases all along the borders. The war was over and Lucius emerged on the other side with many of the same internal scars as the rest who survived it. His service during this war resulted in his call to SSF, one he eagerly accepted. He remained based on Betazed but spent the next five years undercover investigating the rogue Section 31, gathering evidence of its activities and relaying it on to Starfleet Intel. There was trouble in paradise, however. His years away first at Starfleet Academy, then during the Dominion War, coupled with his constant travel as part of Covert Ops, took their toll. Some things were beyond repair and his relationship with Marianna was one of the casualties. When Lucius was honest with himself, and allowed himself to really think about it, he knew that the union had never been where either of their hearts lay. He declined a seat on the ruling council of Betazed, accepting instead a command post at Starbase Xalia, along the border of the former Neutral Zone. Peace accords had been forged with the Empire and while the old saying that ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’ proved true during the invasion, it did not mean the Romulans were trusted. He spent the next five years directing the Starbase and assisting with the rebuilding of the Fleet. His eldest son Nahi was killed inApril 2385, on LI and NAhi's birthday, when a shuttle he piloted from DS9 exploded, mere feet from the shuttle bay. It was determined to be sabotage, a problem that seemed to be a serious plague upon the Fleet now. It was ultimately determined that Section 31 was to blame for Nahi's death. Lucius spent over a year on the investigation that finally revealed the truth. His next year was spent overseeing the station and investigating reports of ‘accidents’ and irregularities within Starfleet - suspected espionage within the ranks of Starfleet itself. Then, in March, a call came in from Admiral Wegener, while visiting his daughter on the USS Berkeley, with an offer he could not refuse - to take on the exploration of The Round Table in the Delta Quadrant in a Diplomatic capacity. Lucius’ love of travel had been nipping at him of late and so he accepted the post and began to pack. Before He could depart however, another change was coming. He was now to serve as Alpha Fleet's Executive Officer, meaning he would remain on SB900 where his daughter now served as Executive Officer. In 2387 he was promoted to Director OF Intelligence, Starfleet Command. |
