Hailing from an alternate version of Earth, Noonian Singh is the Khan Singh that lived a long enough life and made enough mistakes that he saw the error of his despotic ways and changed for the better.

His history is much the same as 'our' Khan Singh - born and raised in India during the British rule. Thanks to the caste system he grew up poor and sickly, until scientists had tried to perfect the human genome and made him into a superman. In the 1980s, while he was barely in his 30s, he and his fellow Augments had ruled the world in secret, Manipulating events behind the scenes and in some cases overtly for many years, it was not until the late 90s that his friends and he were sent off into space on the SS Botany Bay - both as a sort of prison sentence and a way to ensure that they couldn't be duplicated. This is where his history diverges a bit.

Khan took his friends and family aboard, but his beloved wife who had died in childbirth giving birth to his daughter Natasha (now Selene Cross) he started to develop a new organization. He kept many children in stasis and with the recommendation of one of his closest advisors, created a centuries spanning organization called Bloodstone.

At some point prior to the 23rd Century, when Captain James T Kirk woke up our reality's Khan Singh, this Khan Singh and his followers were able to traverse between their 'home' reality which had become far more violent because of the rise of a new Terran Imperium and our reality in which agents from that reality had crossed into 'ours' to build their Imperium here. Forming Bloodstone in both, they created a network of operatives and assassins to steer events in a way they wished to see them go.

Noonian had allied himself with the Terran Imperium in both realities and his daughter, Natasha, had been one of their best operatives, her memories wiped and altered from time to time, but only on the surface. Noonian held deep resentment toward her, in all the centuries he had managed to live, he still missed the love of his life.

It wasn't until the Imperium had take over this reality and his daughter had started to come to terms with her own past and life that he started to wonder if Bloodstone's time was over. This did not sit well with the others and so he started to leak information to allow his daughter and her new family of friends to eliminate them and start dismantling the Imperium. Realizing that, even though he had used stasis and other methods to survive from the 20th Century to the 25th, he realized just how empty his life was. He had other children over the centuries with various women, but few really managed to his heart, like Selene had.

Revealing himself to his daughter and finally accepting her and attempting to be the father he should have been all along, he switched allegiances and knew that his time as a master string puller was over. It was an empty life and he had to move on. He was a genius he could do anything, be anything, become something else.

Falling in love with the sister of Nick Ryder, Natalia Ryder - Noonian began to woo her and work with her at AlphaTek Inc. in the biomedical research and genetics divisions. Unable to keep their hands off each other, he finally proposed and she accepted. Becoming the newest 'Mrs. Singh' and realizing that she had made him happier than he had been in centuries. It didn't take long until they had a child of their own, Nora.

Noonian, a despot no longer, is a vital piece of the Alliance's science council, as well as a trusted adviser to the Price Administration, being Isabella's grandfather.
