* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad Colonel Adrik Thorsen]], of the [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Optimum Movement]], [[EstablishingCharacterMoment commits a one-sided massacre of civilians]] and [[FictionalUnitedNations New United Nations]] peacekeepers aboard a space station in order to steal a ship for a trip to the outer solar system; he then [[BadBoss kills his own foot soldiers]] so that he can take all the credit. After a TimeSkip, he's the public face of the Optimum in Britain and is orchestrating mass executions of civilian demonstrators and anyone who doesn't match up to the Optimum's idea of what humans should look like. He captures and tortures Zefram Cochrane and a pair of Resistance operatives in pursuit of a superweapon, the so-called warp bomb, that according to a lengthy lecture by Cochrane on warp physics is actually impossible. After Cochrane and the Resistance nearly kill him in their escape, Thorsen is rebuilt with nanotech and becomes obsessed with payback. After another time skip, he has Cochrane's wife and students murdered. After a third time skip, he manipulates the Klingons and the Orion Syndicate into kidnapping Cochrane and taking a starliner full of civilians hostage--Kirk's crew rescues them, but not before they [[ThrownOutTheAirlock killbone of the hostages]]--and orders a cruiser to fly into a black hole after Cochrane's shuttle. After a final time skip, he hijacks the ''Enterprise''-D and sends her into the same black hole to get Cochrane.

* TakeThatScrappy: The book makes Wesley Crusher its ButtMonkey. In order, he is the victim of a SnipeHunt, gets lung damage from an ExplosiveDecompression, and is used as a hostage by [[spoiler:Thorsen-as-Data]]. But then he comes back and overcomes [[spoiler:Thorsen-as-Data by hitting his off switch]]. Riker even gets in a "Shut up, Wesley," during the SnipeHunt conversation, although not in those exact words.

* CompleteMonster: Colonel Adrik Thorsen of the [[ANaziByAnyOthername Optimum Movement]] starts as a [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed Himmler clone]] and only gets worse. His EstablishingCharacterMoment is a one-sided massacre of civilians and [[FictionalUnitedNations New United Nations]] peacekeepers aboard a space station in order to steal a ship for a trip to the outer solar system; he then kills his own foot soldiers so he can take all the credit.

* CompleteMonster: Adrik Thorsen. Unprovoked attacks on civilians and UN peacekeepers? Check. Willing to kill to get his hands on a WeaponOfMassDestruction that may or may not actually be physically possible? Check. Orchestrating mass executions? Check. ANaziByAnyOtherName? Check. He only gets worse after being rebuilt with cybernetics: obsessed with revenge against Cochrane, [[spoiler:he has his wife murdered, then his grad students killed in a bombing. In the TOS timeline he has Cochrane kidnapped from his planetoid, then has his mooks (duped Klingons and Orions) take a starliner full of civilians hostage (Kirk rescues them, but not before they space one of the hostages), then orders a D-7 to dive into the Kabreigny Object in pursuit of Cochrane's shuttle. In the TNG timeline he hijacks the ''Enterprise'' and sends it into the same black hole for the same reason.]]
