Lance was born and raised in the tiny town of Walla Walla, Washington. It's not the tiniest town (little over thirty thousand people) but definitely not a large city. Lance wasn't the smartest person around, but he was tall, strong, healthy and determined (and having an eidetic memory didn't hurt). He got into Texas A&M on a football scholarship (defensive lineman for the curious) to major in Chemical Engineering. This was going swimmingly until he damaged his collarbone in a game. The injury was sufficient to drop him from the team, which sadly ended up dropping his scholarship.

After the injury healed in his home in Texas, he was packing up his things when he was approached by a Navy recruiter. A few days later, Lance had enlisted and was on his way to basic training. Officially, Lance's Military Occupational Specialty is a Utilitiesman. What he hasn't stated however is that he was attached to the United States Naval Construction Force, better known as the "Seabees".

During a routine checkup, Lance had a reaction to a standard injection that led to an offer from an Air Force Major, offering the Petty Officer a chance at a highly classified, one of a kind assignment. Lance took the offer and joined the Seabee unit that was attached to Atlantis before it departed for the Pegasus galaxy.

[[File:GTO.jpg|200px|thumb|left|1969 Pontiac GTO "Judge"]]
'''Tool Kit'''


Evan's car, the "Judge". The idling of it's engine sounds like the growling of a jungle cat, the roar of the open throttle more akin to a great bear just before it charges. It eagerly chases down those it finds to be it's enemies or prey. During a chase, it corners as easily as any street racer and it's acceleration finds new heights, twisting the entire vehicle onto it's rear axle in it's glee to hunt.
Dice Mod: 1 (Total dice pool: 6)


The GTO itself was the brainchild of three men. Russell Gee, Bill Collins and John DeLorean (yes, that DeLorean). The 1969 variant was five years in the making of the GTO line, and considered by many to be the culmination of the line, depending on who you talk with of course.
A large tool kit that takes up most of Lance's rucksack, has plenty of tools that could be useful at some point.


Evans' specific car is of the '69 Pontiac GTO Judge with the Ram Air IV intake, of which there were only five built. This gave the car 370 HP from it's 400 CID V8 big block engine. (canon ends here) In actuality, there were eight of these cars built, as the first three were given to the three designers. This car was the seventh off the line, and it's had a shakey history since.
Location: Backpack


It passed through five different owners before it came to John's father, each one proclaiming that the car was strange, almost having to wrestle with it to drive it, and that it was a hangar queen. The problems died down a little under Marc's care, who almost seemed to baby the vehicle when it was on the street and in the garage. Marc gave it a few modern tune-ups, boosting it's horsepower to new heights.
'''Survival Kit, Advanced'''


[[File:GTO_Driving.jpg|200px|thumb]]
Dice Mod: 2


When Marc gave the Judge to John as a gift for completing his residency and thus gaining his medical diploma, the car seemed surly as it came to San Fransisco, slow to get to speed and handling sluggishly. In his off-hours from the hospital, John worked on the vehicle in the garage below "Guardian House", adding a sway bar to give it better handling, as well as stiffer shocks. The car mostly stayed in the garage, except on the few weekends the doctor was off duty.
The basic kit of every soldier (and sailor) on earth.


John has since made some more additions to the car, mostly in the trunk and back seat. In a fake floor of the trunk, there's a flip-up containing a lot of medical gear. Considering how often the trunk is opened, John thought it best that the legal stuff be kept there if the police ever got too curious. The rear seat, also in a flip up, is where John keeps his arsenal of weapons against the supernatural. From salt to keep ghosts at bay, to a blessed shotgun loaded with white-phosphorous shells to make a daemon think twice, to a box of .40 caliber silver rounds for the odd werewolf who goes off the reservation.
Location: Backpack


One night, when John was at a bar, a lone (and cute) female faerie of the Summer Court was being chased by the Wyld Hunt. John took great exception to this, and hopped in his car. Lying in wait along a side street, the girl ran down it, with the Hunt close on her heels. John turned on the car. The engine responded with an enthusiastic roar, the lights flipping up like the eyes of a beast opening. The girl and the hunt stopped in their collective tracks, staring at the car like a herd of deer in it's headlights.
'''Bulletproof Vest'''


With his foot barely on the gas, the car lurched forward, again and again like a guard dog on a chain begging to be released. John still doesn't know to this day whether it was his foot slipping or the car itself. He finally stomped on the gas, the car's engine roaring loud enough to crack a nearby window as it reared up onto it's rear axle, smoke pealing from the rear tires. It tore after the Wyld Hunt, who were now afraid of this machine and it's driver.
Rating 2/3, Strength 1, Defense -1, Speed 0

Standard issue armor for all Gate teams, contained within a tactical vest.


After that chase, the car responded more to John's movements as he was behind the wheel. It was almost as though it were pleased with him. Since then, man and machine have hunted together through the streets of San Francisco. Recently, a gang of fae youths would play chicken with Evans and the car. They have since rued their mistake after the car catching a few of them, and John loading up his shotgun with steel birdshot.

Description

The first thing you notice about Lance is his height. At a towering seven feet (and one inch he says), it's unlikely he has to stretch to change lightbulbs or putting the star on top of the Christmas Tree.

The second thing you notice is his name. Lance is a Petty Officer Third Class in the United States Navy, and having the full title of "Petty Officer Third Class Lance Sargent" makes a lot of people in the military try not to laugh.

Background

Lance was born and raised in the tiny town of Walla Walla, Washington. It's not the tiniest town (little over thirty thousand people) but definitely not a large city. Lance wasn't the smartest person around, but he was tall, strong, healthy and determined (and having an eidetic memory didn't hurt). He got into Texas A&M on a football scholarship (defensive lineman for the curious) to major in Chemical Engineering. This was going swimmingly until he damaged his collarbone in a game. The injury was sufficient to drop him from the team, which sadly ended up dropping his scholarship.

After the injury healed in his home in Texas, he was packing up his things when he was approached by a Navy recruiter. A few days later, Lance had enlisted and was on his way to basic training. Officially, Lance's Military Occupational Specialty is Construction Electrician. What he hasn't stated however is that he was attached to the United States Naval Construction Force, better known as the "Seabees". His personnel jacket shows that he was attached to a Marine Expeditionary Unit and was deployed to the Philippines in the fight against Abu Sayyaf.

During a routine checkup, Lance had a reaction to a standard injection that led to an offer from an Air Force Major, offering the Petty Officer a chance at a highly classified, one of a kind assignment. Lance took the offer and joined the Seabee unit that was attached to Atlantis before it departed for the Pegasus galaxy.

Since then, Lance is one of the few with the ATA gene and is known for having taken a LOT of movies and TV shows with him on the voyage. Good thing RIAA's authority doesn't extend to the Pegasus galaxy!
