Editing Crucible:Sentinel (section)

== Background ==

Hal Norin originated in the year 5106 AD, an era defined by advanced technology and highly structured systems of law enforcement. As part of that system, Norin was trained not only in combat and investigation, but in the use of predictive models that allowed future officers to anticipate criminal behavior before it fully manifested.

His career changed course when he was assigned to pursue Tan Ruul, a renegade general responsible for large-scale atrocities. Ruul’s actions destabilized entire regions, and his escape into the past forced Norin to take extraordinary measures. Using future technology, Norin initiated a one-way temporal jump, following his target into a time far removed from his own.

The transition was not clean.
