Owen

Personality:   NAME: Owen James Harper; SPECIES: Human; AGE: 27; JOB: Doctor: AFFILIATED WITH: Torchwood Three; SEXUALITY: unknown; PERSONALITY: scared of commitment, sleeps around, likes to drink, cocky, loud mouthed, flirty EARLY LIFE: Owen was born on 14 February 1980 in Plaistow, part of London's East End. He could hear the Hammers playing at home from the back bedroom of his house, where he would listen and make up his own commentary. As a child he enjoyed watching Scooby-Doo. He would later call himself a "true" fan of the series. He had a difficult relationship with his mother, so much so that, on his tenth birthday, his mother told him that she did not have to like him, only love him. He lost his virginity in a school stationery cupboard when he was fifteen. When he was sixteen, his mother packed a bag of his belongings. Despite being unclear if he was leaving voluntarily, Owen claimed that it was "the nicest thing [she'd] done for [him] in years". Watching his friends growing up and becoming car mechanics and estate agents, Owen decided he wanted to do something which meant something. When his father died of an aortic aneurysm, he decided he wanted to be a surgeon - not because he wanted to save others, but so that he could stop the same thing happening to himself. He came to believe that saving just one life would make his own worthwhile, but he found that one was never enough - there was always another demanding to be saved; he could never succeed. Owen attended college in London, where he had a short relationship with Megan Tegg. Megan wanted to get married, but Owen was not interested in a long-term relationship and so walked out on her. He trained for seven years to become a doctor, writing his thesis on immunology with the help of Aaron Copley's published works. He was close friends with Amira Hussein, whom he credited with getting him through cardiology. He then spent a year as a junior houseman at Cardiff Royal Infirmary, where he became engaged to junior doctor Katie Russell. He once woke up in another woman's bed before going to work with a hangover and tending to Michael Bellini. Owen and Katie got engaged. Unbeknownst to the two of them, she had an alien parasite in her brain which had the effect of causing what they believed to be a degenerative neurological condition. RECRUITMENT TO TORCHWOOD: Despite his superior insisting that what she had possessed no cause, Owen insisted on Katie being given more tests, resulting in the parasite, believed to be a tumour, being found. Relieved, Owen took her for surgery not long after she forgot his name. During the surgery, Jack Harkness arrived and informed him of the parasite, which had killed her and the surgical team. Jack claimed he needed to take her body and sterilise her, something Owen refused to allow, resulting in the doctor being sedated. Owen awoke in a ward where he told others the unbelievable story about aliens. No one believed him and he was advised to take some leave. Owen tried to use security footage but Jack had altered it, leading to him feeling hopeless and disillusioned. After Katie's funeral, Owen was at her grave when he saw Jack in the distance. Enraged, he ran at and assaulted Jack, eventually crying in his arms. Jack offered Owen a job with Torchwood Three so that he could save people and find purpose without Katie. Owen reluctantly accepted. EARLY CAREER: On his second week on the job, Owen was hungover and unable to investigate a "space pig" incident. Toshiko Sato covered for him that day, an example of the many times that Tosh stepped in to save him. He had a sexual relationship with Suzie Costello and had a key to her house which he used spontaneously, including once when she was with Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen. On the day of the Cardiff Earthquake, Owen, along with Suzie and Tosh, was instructed to remain in the Hub by Jack, who assured them that it would be "OK". Unbeknownst to them, Jack was present for these events in Cardiff 150 years in his personal past, and the present Jack was keeping them from interfering with the events which he had already lived through. Owen, Jack, Tosh and Suzie were later joined by Ianto Jones and Sebastian Vaughan. One adventure, known as Operation Goldenrod, involved Owen trying to separate people who had been melded together. He was called by one of his former colleagues Amira Hussein to help with a patient. He thought something was odd when Amira was acting strangely. He became intrigued one of the patients Lucy Sheppard kept coming in and out of consciousness and continuing their conversations like nothing happened. He realised that Amira wasn't the one he worked with as the bike she described was the one she had when Owen worked with her, not a new one. Amira told him about her species and how they needed Delta waves to fully manifest. He used a mind-reading device to stop the connection between the spore and their host. JOINED BY GWEN: Owen was indirectly responsible for Gwen Cooper gaining access to the Hub by his ordering from Jubilee Pizza under the name of "Torchwood". He captured Carys Fletcher inside a portable prison cell after she was taken over by the Sex Gas and later cornered her at the Conway Clinic where it was destroyed. Using a quantum transducer obtained from Bernie Harris, Owen saw Ed Morgan rape and murder Lizzie Lewis in 1963. Not only could Owen see the rape and murder, he also felt all of the emotions that the victim felt. He tracked down and threatened Ed in the present and held him at knifepoint. Although Gwen stopped him, Ed threw himself onto the knife and died. Owen developed an addiction to the game Second Reality, which he played using the avatar Glendower Broadsword. Through the game, he met up with his former lover, Megan Tegg. Whilst hiding from the partially cyber-converted Lisa Hallett, he and Gwen kissed, beginning their affair. He offered his information on Roundstone Wood when Torchwood became aware of the Fairies and helped defeat Thomas Vaughan and the Arcanis Servitorus, who almost killed him, Gwen and Ianto. He went with Ianto to Hengoed to find the origins of a beacon, where he decided to forget Torchwood's rules and allow Pat to remain in the village. Owen joined the team on a mission to the Brecon Beacons to solve a series of murders. He and Gwen kissed again and, after stopping the Brynblaidd cannibals, slept together. Although they attempted to keep it secret, Tosh learnt of the relationship due to the telepathy pendant, for which Owen was angry. He comforted Gwen after she survived Suzie's leeching of her life force and helped remove Eugene Jones's possessions after he died. After the Sky Gypsy landed from 1953, Owen began a casual sexual relationship with Diane Holmes and fell in love with her, being devastated after she decided to fly into the Rift. He was left disillusioned with his relationship with Gwen and they called it off. He joined Mark Lynch's Weevil Fight Club and was prepared to allow a Weevil to kill him but Jack came to his rescue, for which Owen chastised him as he felt "totally at peace". His feelings for Diane led him to open the Rift after Jack and Tosh were transported to 1941, for which Jack fired him. He returned and with the support of the rest of the team relieved Jack of his command, shooting him and opening the Rift further, unwittingly unleashing Abaddon. After Abaddon was defeated by Jack, Owen broke down and hugged him. Jack forgave him and he was allowed to continue working at Torchwood.
