James Lethbridge-Stewart

Gordon  was the son of Gordon Conall Lethbridge-Stewart and Mary Gore and elder brother of Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart. He was born in 1925 and named after his maternal grandfather, James Gore. He died in 1938, after being haunted by a being called Maha. Years later, in 1969, it was revealed by the ghost "Gordon" that James carried an immortal soul that would one day be reincarnated into a man called Mahasamatman, who would go on to ascend into the being that became the Great Intelligence. James' soul was reincarnated in 1951 as Owain Vine. (PROSE: The Forgotten Son)

On the Inferno Earth it was young Alistair who died in 1938, after accidentally falling down Golitha Falls. In that reality James never met Maha, and went on to become a major in the Coldstream Guards. In 1959 he met a man who he came to learn was his dead brother from a parallel future Earth, Colonel Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart. James travelled to a middle-reality in the 1940s with the colonel and there met another version of his brother, Alastair. He was instrumental in saving Alastair, transporting him to the Inferno Earth where he met their father Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, Director of External Security. (PROSE: The Schizoid Earth)
