'''Lazarus "Juice" Davis''' is currently serving as a Science Officer aboard the {{USS|Constitution}}. He often finds himself at odds internally: the inherent conservatism of a scientist juxtaposed with the pointed irreverence of a creative mindset. Lazarus' personality profile has correctly identified him as an ''agent provocateur,'' but he wishes the file would emphasize his good-natured attitude, as the term can carry a negative connotation. "Juice" is easy to get along with, and thinks unique experiences of all kinds are the spice of life. His sense of humor is dry and deadpan, which can make him hard to read. He is adept in social settings, but stumbles more often than perhaps most do and can be a ''bit'' garrulous at times.

Davy Jones (2364-2395): Childhood friend from Earth. The two of them were closer than brothers during their formative years and beyond. Jones was a mjaor positive influence on Lazarus, always encouraging him and pushing him to be a better person. Lazarus is a bit lost without him.

Lazarus “Juice” Davis was born Justin Davis. At the age of 16, after surviving a harrowing medical trauma, he felt that his purpose in life was renewed and thus gave himself a new name – borrowing from a biblical story of a man resurrected. His friends, however, still call him by his nickname: “Juice.” His parents oscillate between Justin and Lazarus. Lazarus went through high school and his undergrad experience because it was what he was supposed to do, but the aforementioned medical trauma during his undergrad helped Lazarus realize that life is precious and perhaps too short to simply go with the flow. Against the objections of his parents, Lazarus pursued a PhD in cognitive science where he explored his interests in psychology and effects of media use.

In his spare time, Lazarus is a songwriter and composer, as well as an avid music listener. His view of music history is genealogical in that he sees a clear lineage in his musical preferences to a series of late 20th century Earth musicians and composers. Lazarus also dabbles in writing holoprograms that live between typical holonovel-conventions and art.
