"S" was the head of the Universal Secret Service. By 2065, he also had a seat on the World Security Council.

In the early days of the USS, S approached Brent Cleever to ask him to join the organisation after observing the part he played in breaking up the Organisation For Liquidation, Extermination, Terrorism and Arson. (PROSE: This is 2065)

In December 2046, S showed Cleever (now known as Agent Twenty One) footage of Senior Special Agent 24's failed attempt to kill the Director of Great Britain, as well as his subsequent arrest. Telling him that the Directorship would have to be overthrown if Great Britain was to join the World Government, S gave Twenty One the mission to do just that. (COMIC: Down With The Director)

After news of Twenty One's life-threatening injuries reached Kahra, S assigned Tina Palamac to Kiel Hospital as part of a protection detail in the event that Bereznik learnt of his location but she ultimately died in a gun battle with a Bereznik assassination squad. When Twenty One fininshed his recovery weeks later, S reflected that she was a good agent that would be missed before sending Twenty One to Astra to prevent a plot to kill the World President and the Astran Kaplan upon the completion of the Andromeda Project. Following the successful arrest of the Bereznik spy Debbie Latimer, S commended Twenty One for how he handled the case but vehemently forbade him from seeking revenge for Tina's murder, telling him that he was not employed to run personal vendettas.

After Twenty One resigned from the USS to hunt Colonel Paternik, S assigned Abbis Ling to follow him and ensure he did not leave Mars. He sent Ling renforcements when Twenty One entered Central Stores in an attempt to evade detection but this was ultimately in vain. S contacted Tatiana Bianca to inform her of Ling's failiure and she responded by telling him she would handle Twenty One's escape to Earth herself. She later called S to proclaim her suspicions that officials of the British government were responsible for helping him subvert her custody of him. S acknowledged that Britain owed him "much" and spoke to World President Nikita Bandranaik to convince him that Twenty One's success would embarrass the World Government. Bandranaik agreed and subsequently ordered that all submarines heading for Bereznik should face destruction. After Twenty One still managed to evade arrest after fleeing from a stopped British Navy ship, S made the USS Press Office put out a story in European newspapers that Twenty One had killed a security chief and was on the run, offering a reward of ten thousand dollars.
