  • He was born on Earth in 2597 and studied cybernetics, earning a BA from the University of Kingston and a Masters and Ph.D. from the Sorbonne. In 2620 he was awarded the Golden Moebius for software design. After graduation he signed on for Sung Datasystems and worked as troubleshooter around many colonies in Enigma and Argent Sectors, earning in the process two letters of commendation from Confed Colonial Services. Around this time he also received a light spacecraft pilot certification. He met a Pilgrim woman, Devi Soulsong and together they had a son, Christopher Blair, born around 2630. When the Pilgrim War begun, his reserve commission was activated by the Space Force, and he reported to Titan. He served a 25-month tour on TCS Harrison with 11 confirmed fighter kills and two capital ship kills. He was awarded the Blaze for Conspicuous Gallantry twice. Blair had the degree of SF Major. In early 2633, Commodore Geoffrey Tolwyn picked him to join the design team of the Confed Grand Fleet and he was appointed senior cyberneticist. For his software controlling Grand Fleet maneuvers he would be eventually awarded a Conroy Medal and a Senatorial Commendation. Later that year he was assigned to TCS Foster and returned to combat duty earning 3 more confirmed kills and a citation for bravery. A year later he flew alone above the atmosphere of Peron in a mission classified by Grand Fleet Ops, when his Merlin-class fighter was detected and destroyed by a Pilgrim automated stratospheric defense drone, as it it believed. His wife had also died recently and their son were given to the care of Jennifer. His death was reported by the Grand Fleet Information Office. He died trying to protect his wife during the Peron massacre in an unauthorized attempt. These details were suppressed in the account of the death released to the family, apparently for compassionate reasons. Four years after his death, a reporter published a sensational story to the sector news-nets titled "War Hero's Secret Pilgrim Romance" revealing his wife's origins and their son.
