Template:Stargate character In the science fiction series Stargate Atlantis, Lucius Lavin was a human baker, living on a planet in the Pegasus Galaxy. He was specialized in baking, herbs and spices, and shoving candles into gourds.
History
Lucius and his herbs
As a greedy and manipulative baker, Lucius was despised by his fellow townspeople. However, he enjoyed experimenting with his bread and muffins, and would often bake various foreign herbs into his bread. On a visit to M6H-491, Lucius discovered an unusual herb, and collected samples to bake with. Afterwards he was astonished to find that the herbs he had collected were causing his fellow townspeople to eventually be enthralled by him. The boundaries of his fellow citizens dropping away, he soon discovered he was easily the ruler of their society. Eventually he perfected a potion, which worked well for years. At the peak of his success he had six wives.
However, when the Wraith were awakened, they discovered M6H-491, and an alliance of three Hives chose to establish a base of operations there. As such, Lucius was prevented from obtaining more of the herb. Knowing life would soon return to how it was before he had discovered the herb, he became desperate to replenish his supply.
When a team from Atlantis visited Lucius' planet in a Puddle Jumper, Lavin realized that these people might be able to obtain his supplies. He was eager to forge an alliance with the Atlantis expedition, and after exposing himself and his pheromones to Dr. Carson Beckett for an extensive period of time, he managed to get himself invited to the city. There, he manipulated them into using their manpower and resources to recover the herbs from the Wraith stronghold.
For a short period of time, Lucius was effectively in control of Atlantis. Every officer except for John Sheppard yielded to his every will. However, when Sheppard bullied Beckett away from the city and gave him time to clear his head, the doctor devised an antidote which neutralized the effects of the pheromone on Lucius and all its recipients. After Lucius was returned to his home planet, the same drug was also administered to his fellow villagers. Knowing he would soon be despised again, Lucius returned to his village in shame. [1]
"The Hero"
Instead of remaining in his old village, Lucius later moved to another planet in the Pegasus Galaxy. After he discovered an Ancient Personal shield among his possessions, he posed as an invincible hero, winning the hearts and minds of his new fellow villagers. However, although word of his successes in personal combat had already began to spread, the people in his town were getting less and less impressed with their own superhero.
When word of this "hero" reached the Atlantis Expedition, a team led by Colonel Sheppard was dispatched to the planet. When his team arrived, they found the village under siege by a band of thugs, and were threatened until Lucius made quick work of the thugs, protected from their weapons and blows.
Instead of saying goodbye and leaving, Sheppard decided to remain on the planet, ensuring that Lucius would not take advantage of the easily impressed villagers. After following him to a secret meeting with several of the thugs, Sheppard discovered that Lucius hired them to stage the attack to remind his entourage of his superpowers. However, as former Genii soldiers, they were unwilling to accept the meager sum offered by Lavin, and summoned their former commander, Acastus Kolya.
After his arrival, Kolya laid siege to a small village, bent on taking revenge on John Sheppard, torturing Lavin in the process. All of the members of Sheppard's team except the Colonel himself were subsequently captured by Kolya, whom he intented to trade to Dr. Elizabeth Weir for weapons. However, eventually Sheppard, assisted by Lucius, outmaneuvered Kolya, and captured the entire mercenary team. When Kolya refused to surrender, Sheppard was forced to shoot him with his pistol, killing him.
Sheppard later allowed Lavin to keep his personal shield, as the power source had been permanently depleted during the fight with Kolya. However, Sheppard did not inform Lavin of this. Offscreen he ordered a kid to kick him in the balls - not realizing that his shield was depleted... [2] Template:Endspoiler
