Ian is a clone who is identical in appearance to Sean Collins, but he has been genetically enhanced and created to be "superior." He is the proclaimed Crown Prince of Saturn was formerly a member of The Golden Court under The Tyrant. He now rules over a settlement of resurrected Saturnian civilians on the moon Mimas.

Creation and Mission
Ian's creation was both a planned scheme and an accident. Nucleoid had plotted to try to clone Sean to create a Saturnian servant for The Tyrant who would be stronger, faster, and deadlier than the original, and loyal to her court. This clone would be used to ensure the Tyrant's claim to Saturn in the Sol system as well, by using the royal bloodline that resided within Sean. Nucleoid was successful in subduing and capturing his selected prey, but the method of cloning came with many difficulties and failures as the clone embryos kept dying, never developing a starseed to connect them to the planet itself. Nucleoid concluded that he would need to steal Sean's true starseed to see if he could clone it instead. With all his collected samples of flesh and bone from his subject, he was more than happy to risk losing the original for this final attempt to create his clone.
The collection of the true starseed did not go as planned. In his attempt to remove the true starseed, Nucleoid's contraption and methods caused the starseed to crack, unleashing a powerful wave of force that destroyed the lab. Nucleoid was disappointed to find that his attempt to claim the whole starseed had failed, but he did manage to recover a shard. Before he could do more damage to his captive, Nucleoid was forced to gather his remaining samples and retreat, as Sean's allies had located him due to the destruction of the dampening devices in place. Sean was recovered by the Earth Allies, but with a damaged and cracked starseed, he was slowly dying in a comatose state. Banding together, the Earth Allies used their abilities and channeled their energies into Sean's true starseed to reforge and heal it.
By reforging Sean's starseed, they did not know that their efforts were also resonating upon the shard taken by Nucleoid, thus reforging the shard into a cloned star seed, and creating a second life. Nucleoid was surprised by this turn of events, and began working on one more clone, and placing the new starseed into the embryo. The starseed accepted this newly created host, and the clone was able to maintain its life force, and grow quickly. The clone soon awoke and broke free from his capsule, and was greeted by Nucleoid and Doom Phantom. They gave him the name Ian, a simple variant from his original's name. Nucleoid instructed Ian on his abilities and enhancements, and how Ian was superior to the original "unworthy son of Saturn." With what cloned memories he had, he was also provided further education about his planet, species, purpose, and mission.
To test his ties to Saturn and his inherent abilities, Ian was instructed to try and summon an artifact from the planet to prove his cloned blood had ties and a claim to Saturn. Ian closed his eyes and concentrated on the planet and its energies. Within moments, an artifact was summoned from the depths of the planet's heart, and it flew into Ian's grasp...a shining ancient sword, the Executioner's Blade of Silence itself, the Sword of Saturn. Elated, Nucleoid and the Doom Phantom were pleased that this was a sign that the clone was perfect, and that his blood matched the royal lineage. Ian was dubbed the new Prince of Saturn, and they moved forward with their plans.
The Defamation of Saturn Knight
Taking up residence in a hidden base on the moon of Mimas, Nucleoid and Doom Phantom plotted with Ian on how they would start their mission to destroy and replace the original "Unworthy Son" and gain favor in the Golden Court. Nucleoid considered even presenting Ian to the Tyrant as a sort of consort, but was refused as the Tyrant preferred her own harem of obedient male servants.
Ian, as well, had no interest in gaining a queen at this time. He was too focused on eliminating his "rival" and taking his proper place as the true prince. Knowing of Sean's current mental condition being affected by Nucleoid's torture and experimentation on him while he was a captive, Ian decided to exploit this to drive Sean into a state of confusion and madness, and to try and turn his friends and allies against him, and possibly execute him as a criminal.
Due to the past, and the fall of the Silver Millenium, Sean harbored a deep seeded hatred for youma. Doom Phantom decided this should be exploited as the means to start the downfall of the Senshi Knight, and in turn cause conflict among the Earth Allies within the Hotel. Doom Phantom proposed that they murder the adopted youma child of a resident in the Hotel, Katerina Markov, and allow Sean to take the blame for the crime. In addition, the Phantom schemed to try and make further evidence by staging "provoked" attacks against other youma inhabitants, among which included an attack on DD Girl Pink on a live broadcast program on GingaTV. The evidence against Sean was mounting, and with his own sporadic behavior due to his implanted memories, he couldn't even be sure that he wasn't responsible. Sean ended up fleeing from the HOTEL after the murder and Live TV assault took place, and hid away in Ueno Park as authorities came looking for him. He was taken into custody by Ssskt and locked up in a cell within the Alien Zone Police's prison for his initial interrogation, and until his trial.
The Founding of his Kingdom
Since sharing the royal bloodline from his biological donor, and with the Princess of Saturn living as a Human on Earth, Ian decided he would take the Saturnian throne, unopposed, and stand in as the Crown Prince of Saturn. Since he could not found his kingdom on the now gaseous giant, Ian chose to found his kingdom where Nucleoid had founded his second hidden lab, on Mimas. After managing to maintain a stable shield and field that would allow their location and life signs to remain hidden, they started planning on how to establish their own kingdom and gain a following.
Doom Phantom suggested exploiting a young visitor from an alternate future, a boy called "Little Gentleman" who possessed a GS Ball with immense power. The boy was brought to Ian, and he told his story of Saturn's fall and betrayal. Ian told the boy about his dream to resurrect the people and kingdom so that they may see justice and a second chance to rebuild what they had lost. The child felt a desire to help this "prince" and used the power of his GS Ball to try and restore the fallen kingdom and its people. The Planet Saturn, however, seemed to come alive and repel the boy's attempt to bring the past back to life. This clash of energies caused a massive explosion, and the GS Ball's energies burst and spread like a wave over the Saturnian system and moons, before boomeranging back to Mimas where the boy and Ian stood. This sudden backlash knocked Little Gentleman unconscious, and Ian was concerned their attempt was a failure. He soon saw that an unexpected result had occurred, as there were now hundreds of living resurrected Saturnians awakening in his fortress. It wasn't the result he wanted or expected, but Ian too this as an opportunity to at least start his kingdom and following for a strong and independent Saturn to rise as a center of power once again. Ian addressed his people, introducing himself as their prince, and what his vision was to restore Saturn to an even greater glory than that of the Silver Millennium, and denounce the previous royal bloodline and descendants to deny them any claim to his throne. The people happily embraced this new prince, taking note to his resemblance to the son of the former Earl of Titan. As it turned out, the people that were resurrected were various previous supporters of a pure blooded Saturn. They had all come from different moon colonies, and even from Saturn itself, and had opposed the rule of the Empress. They joyously pledged their allegiance and loyalties to their prince, and vowed with him to bring glory and justice to their new kingdom of Saturn. Ian knew they would need security, so he had Nucleoid set forth to secure all of Saturnian Airspace so that their enemies on Earth would not be able to invade and attack before they could be prepared. Nucleoid then set to work, and with the help of the Doom Phantom
