UniWorld Prime

1944 - Luc Deveraux is born in Louisiana, son of John.
1962 - Luc plays soccer.
1969 - Pvt. Luc Deveraux and Sergeant Andrew Scott kill each other in Vietnam. Luc is 25.
1991 - Operation Black Tower. Deveraux and Scott finally "reactivated" from cryogenesis as GR44 and GR13. They are soon trained to be functional Universal Soldiers.
1993 - First U.S.S.F. (Universal Soldier Strike Force) missions.
1994 - The events of 'UNIVERSAL SOLDIER' take place. Luc is 28.
1997 - Luc heavily struggles to adjust to "normal" social life again. After some time he is inserted into a standalone program to be used from time to time as operative unit and to be kept well monitored and carefully refrigerated when on hiatus.
1998 - Pentagon gradually resumes Black Tower program as back-up weapon and thus the creation of four Series 2 UniSols is commissioned.
2000 - The Boone Unlimited company institute is founded, run by Dr. Robert Colin and Mr. Boone. The institute revolves around the Cloning Research and the development of a functional and sophisticated cloning technology.
2004 - Led by Dr. Robert Colin and supervised by Dr. Porter, White Tower Program is officially introduced, as spawn of the Cloning Research going on for a decade. That led to the creation of the many Next Generation Universal Soldier (N.G.U.) series.
2008 - In the shadows, Colin is also elaborating a theorical way to genetically create more powerful UniSols with superior regeneration capabilities and no overheat issue.
2011 - At the Boone Unlimited, Colin secretly starts to "raise" a new type of Universal Soldier obtained from the remnants of the second Alpha UniSol, Andrew Scott. The rogue UniSol is named 'Andrew Scott II' and kept secret from either authorities and private investors.
2012 - Luc is awaken and submitted to a privately funded project run by Dr. Sandra Fleming: Phoenix. A process of psychological rehabilitation aimed at making him blend with society again. His brain is heavily "fried" and damaged. They relocate in Switzerland.
2013 - Incident at one of the Government buildings. 12 dead, nobody injured, caused by a malfunction of the NGUs after a (staged) glitch of the system stabilizing the temperature. NGUs are permanently shut down by Army to prevent any further problem. Series 7 model is missing from the batch, along to pivotal equipment. Colin is suspected: indeed he has mysteriously disappeared.
2014 - The events of 'UNIVERSAL SOLDIER: REGENERATION' take place. Luc is 48.
2015 - During the many months he was running from authorities, as the mental daze wears off, Luc develops a "rebel leader" personality and destructive thoughts against everything which turned him into an UniSol. He got himself caught on purpose by the American government in order to be brought in the States again and start to annihilate the system from the inside...
2016 - The Boone Unlimited company has been absorbed by the Third Program UniSol Project. Series 8 (template: Robert Burke) is ready, this time using the clonation procedure modeled after 'Andrew Scott'. An alternate branch is developed in order to genetically improve the biological performances of the UniSols. Series 9 is thus commissioned, using Colin's extensive back-up work, designed to improve the powers of the UniSols.
2018 - Series 9 is ready to go. Luc frees some Series 9 UniSols and spreads havoc in the headquarters. Along with a team of dissident scientists, the group of UniSols led by Luc steals precious cloning technology and chemical equipment. They escape in the middle of the night.
2019 - The 'UniSol Church of Eventualism' is finally founded. 'Andrew Scott III' is created and released to stop Luc wherever he is. It doesn't work: Andrew is captured and "freed" from the programming. He will become Luc's second in command.
2021 - The events of 'UNIVERSAL SOLDIER: DAY OF RECKONING' take place. Luc is 55.



UniWorld Omega

In this alternate Earth, science and technology were highly advanced long before their time in other parallel universes. That brought a "speeding-up" of the events and some consistent progress in genetics, engineering and A.I. systems.

1944 - Luc Deveraux is born in Louisiana, son of John.
1962 - Luc plays soccer.
1969 - Pvt. Luc Deveraux and Sergeant Andrew Scott kill each other in Vietnam. Luc is 25.
1984 - Deveraux and Scott finally "reactivated" from cryogenesis as GR44 and GR13. They are soon trained to be functional Universal Soldiers.
A variant of the events of 'UNIVERSAL SOLDIER' take place. Luc is 25.
1986 - Luc's daughter, Hillary Deveraux, is conceived. Eventually, Luc marries the mother. He's still considered as "side project" and useful remnant of the Universal Soldier Program anyway.
1991 - At the Ryan-Lathrop Facility in Dallas, a new project starts: UniSol 2500. The leading scientist is Dr. Dylan Cotner, who is even working on a revolutionary A.I. computer known as 'S.E.T.H.' (Self-Evolving Thought Helix).
1993 - By the help of Cotner and his revolutionary albeit if experimental chemical research and nanotechnology, the UniSol process is reversed and Luc's overheating issues are eventually settled out, granting him a human life again. He still retains his 2.0 athletical faculties anyway.
1994 - Deveraux is employed as technical advisor and trainer for the new breed of UniSols codenamed 2500, controlled by S.E.T.H. through the connective system 'Matrix'.
1996 - Mrs. Deveraux dies in an accident.
1999 - Sept. 12, 19, 26/Oct. 03 - The events of 'UNIVERSAL SOLDIER: THE RETURN' take place. Luc is 40.

1994/95 - The events of 'BROTHERS IN ARMS' take place:

Luc Devreaux has escaped from the military program that resurrected him from the dead. He and Veronica Roberts are in hiding on his parents' farm. But then the UniSol controllers activate a homing beacon embedded inside Devreaux's body that makes him return to the UniSol base in Chicago, where his memory is reprogrammed. Veronica follows. Sneaking into the UniSol lab to rescue Luc, she discovers that his older brother Eric has also been resurrected as GR5. At the same time the program is hijacked by the ruthless Otto Mazur who wants to sell the Universal Soldiers to terrorist groups. As Luc and Veronica try to stop him, Mazur uses Eric as a pawn.

1998 - The events of 'UNFINISHED BUSINESS' take place:

Luc Devreaux and Veronica Roberts travel to an internet conference in Toronto to talk to a former colleague of hers and try to get the Universal Soldier story out the media. But instead they stray into a situation where the attendees are taken hostage by terrorists. Luc is able to save the day and despatch the terrorists. They travel back to the US to gather evidence that will expose the UniSol Program. There they are hunted by Universal Soldiers on the orders of Deputy CIA director Gerald Risco, the creator of the UniSol program. They then stumble onto Risco's plan to use the Universal Soldiers to hijack a shipment of gold being returned to Holocaust victims and set out to stop him.
Meanwhile, CIA Deputy Director (Mentor) and Dr. Walker are in the process of creating a powerful new Universal Soldier clone of Luc's brother Eric, GR87, to assassinate him and Veronica.

Alternative Ending:
As Deveraux grabs a shotgun in the kitchen, the front door opens and he sees his mother before Scott shoots her to death. In the final fight between Deveraux and Scott, Deveraux does not use Scott's muscle enhancers. Shortly after grinding Scott to death, Deveraux is shot by his father before Dr. Gregor and his men appear. Dr. Gregor explains that he had Deveraux set up to get to him and Scott, and that Deveraux was living with people posing as his parents. He then has his men shoot down Deveraux. But before Deveraux dies, police and Roberts' news crew arrive. The news crew douse Deveraux with a fire extinguisher to stabilize him while Dr. Gregor and his men are arrested. Roberts is given the microphone to cover the arrest, but she loses all composure while on the air, dropping the microphone to comfort Deveraux.
Several days later, Deveraux is reunited with his real parents.

Deveraux rejects all life-prolonging medications before dying a natural death.
