Greetings Lance,

I finished Regeneration number four. I seriously reworked everything.

Oh and yes the Star dates and names of the Starships are real, as are their classes, I also made sure to use only dates and ship names that had no canon information on them so as to preseve the lore. And yes I'm that big of a Trekker.

"There is no indignity in a fear of death, but it is a terrible shame in my mind to meet someone too afraid to live."]]4. Fourth Incarnation: 9,712-10,938 years old.

The fourth Incarnation of Nicholas Hawthorn became far more interested in the future potential of the Human race than its past. Recalling his adventures with the USS Voyager and the respect he gained for the Federation as fellow peace seeking explorers; Nicholas returned to that Universe. Realizing that he couldn’t return to Voyager or the Delta Quadrant, as that would alter the timeline he instead opted to begin in the 23rd Century. Arriving in the early 2230s on Earth, he worked behind the scenes to help Humanity avoid several early missteps with the Klingons, he also eliminated a number of temporal paradoxes.

However this brought the Time Lord to the attention of several temporal powers. In 2233 Nicholas was apprehended by Temporal Agents as a ‘rogue anachronism in the timeline’ much to the Time Lord’s annoyance which he voiced quite loudly. As it turned out this Universe’s timeline was in utter tatters due to a disastrous ‘Temporal Cold War’ that had left every moment between the 20th Century and the 33rd in flux. Offering his services Nicholas helped stabilize the timeline and prevent a catastrophic collapse. Because of his aid Hawthorn was marked as an asset and allowed to move freely within the timeline while being protected from other temporal factions or Section 31. This freedom pertained on the caveat that he would help out with any other paradoxes. He would do this job for centuries at a time, being removed from the timeline to alter its flow and then returned moments after he left, the only sign that time had passed for him was a slight greying of his hair. During this time he became good friends with Captain Robert April and his wife Sarah in 2234. Nicholas joined Starfleet academy at Sarah’s advice in 2236.

Upon graduation he was commissioned with the rank of Lieutenant. He would go onto to serve on a number of vessels including the USS Antares a scientific vessel from 2240-2244, the Magee Class science vessel USS Helena as a Lieutenant Commander and the Chief Medical Officer between 2244-2250, promoted to Commander in 2250 Nicholas was assigned to the Hiawatha Class Medical Frigate USS Scovil where he served as First Officer under Captain Miguel Desantos until 2256. Nicholas would be then promoted to the rank of Captain and given command of the USS Cooper a Cardenas Class Explorer in late 2256; due to rising tensions with the Klingon Empire, and a need to shore up Fleet Reserves with experienced officers. In 2262 Nicholas would transfer command in of the Cooper to his first officer, Commander Tarsi in order to take command of the USS Korolev a Constitution Class Heavy Cruiser. He would remain the Korolev’s Captain until 2295 when it was crippled while protecting a Federation colony along the neutral zone from an attack by a Romulan War Fleet that crossed into Federation space and had to be scuttled.

Cause of Regeneration: Suffered severe plasma burns while carrying several unconscious and wounded crewmates to the escape pods.
