A famed xenobiologist-turned-geneticist who did pioneering work in creating successful strains of Humans and Homunculi.
His early research assessed the genetic diversity of contacted alien races that had reached a spacefaring stage. From this data he asserted that no species had survived this stage without engineering bold eugenic movements - whether those were publicly acknowledged or denied. He warned that humans' reticence to submit to such controls would lead to our being outcompeted. This failed to gain traction within the United Nations Office for Xenobiology Studies (UNOXES) and the United Nations Office of Genetic Management Affairs (UNOGMA), decried as unnecessarily competitive with the peaceful races we had encountered.
Lothian was soon headhunted from United Nations Office for Xenobiology Studies (UNOXES) by Cachet Bio-Innovations Corp., to assist in their Homunculus program. Lothian found it a welcome change, the department populated with fellow Fosterites.
