Captain James Lee was a liaison officer aboard the USS Prospect (NCC-60056-A) and a member of Special Operations.


 * His appearance is human, but, in reality, he is a Na'arbi undercover agent whose real name is Li ' Jaes. His true identity remains a secret to most people.

A Planted Agent
The Na'arbi planted several agents both in the Federation's and other major powers' societies. Li'Jaes, working under the guise James Lee, was one such agent.

Aboard the USS Prospect
By 2367, Lee was working aboard the Special Operations starship USS Prospect (NCC-60056) as a liaison officer when they received a distress call. Investigating it, the crew discovered the USS Artemis (NCC-1992) had not exploded in 2364 but jumped to warp and survived.

An uneasy Captain John Sill sent counselor Scott Fack, first officer Anne Cobry, security chief George Serigos, Ensign Garrett and two other security officers to the Artemis. Fack and his escort Ensign Garrett attempted to locate bodies, but were instead altered by the M'Tar. Transformed into the Liaison, Fack attempted to assist the M'Tar take control of the Federation, but a battle when Lee spoiled that plan. Lee severed Fack and Garrett from M'Tar control and transported them back to the Prospect before the Artemis exploded, dragging him and the two M'Tar into the M'Tar Domain, sealing the portal between the two dimensions.

Sill and Serigos investigated a strange energy pulse emanating from Lee's cabin to find a holographic transmission, warning Sill the M'Tar were growing in number and not near extinction. (Star Trek: The Prospect Chronicles: "Lady Lazarus")


 * Neither John Sill nor Starfleet did not reveal the true facts about the M'Tar to Scott Fack as per his comments in "Catalyst, Part One". It is assumed Starfleet was keeping this knowledge close to their chests for unknown reasons.

The Prospect's Destruction
By 2370, Lee had returned, albeit by unknown means. After the USS Odyssey's destruction by the Jem'Hadar in late 2370, Special Operations quickly assembled the Prospect crew and sent them from Deep Space 9 to the Gamma Quadrant to make first contact with the Founders. This mission failed, resulting in the Prospect's sacrifice in order to halt a Dominion incursion into Federation space. Captain Sill (the commanding officer), and the majority of the Prospect crew, survived on the saucer section, which coasted back through the Bajoran Wormhole to Federation space. Lee was instrumental in helping the Prospect team survive.

"Directive"
The Prospect was sent, in 2372, to the Gamma Quadrant to find the Rutherford after it disappeared, and John Sill commanded this mission. Successful in discovering the Rutherford but unsure in the whereabouts of its crew, Sill ordered the Rutherford destroyed to stop it falling into Dominion hands. Lee provided key tactical information Na'arbi agents had gathered on the Jem'Hadar, helping the Prospect survive. Battles with the Jem'Hadar saw the Prospect suffer heavy damage. (Star Trek: The Prospect Chronicles: "Directive")

Lee and Samantha Delaney
Working outside Federation and Starfleet protocols, Lee visited Dr. Samantha Delaney aboard Dante Station after the Rutherford mission. Once there, he destroyed her folded space drive prototype and all her research materials relating to them, driving Delaney further mentally unstable. (Star Trek: The Cantabrian Expeditions: "An Innocent Time")


 * The reason the Na'arbi had Lee destroy the data and prototype was, after the disasterous testing of the device and destructive battles with the Dominion, the Na'arbi felt the Federation was not ready for the technology.
