Trevor (sometimes called Trev) is a soldier in the employ of Peckinville Associates. Initially on duty to transport washouts from the Dorley Hall basement, he was abducted and brought to Stenordale Manor where he was force-feminized.
As of the 5th of December 2019, he is 24 years old. Prior to his abduction, he was considered a "pretty boy" and "shortarse" by his squad. [SD 29]
Trevor is gay. Prior to his abduction, he was studying Japanese online to impress his crush who works at Legend in Almsworth. [SD 29]
Personal History
Trevor was bullied as a teen for being gay. At fifteen, he was beaten by a group of boys who stripped him, leaving him with only a dress to wear back to his afternoon classes. [SD 30]
Trevor has a history degree from the Open University -- after being outed to his family and friends he opted to join the military rather than attend univeristy via clearing. He signed up with Peckinville's PMC three months after taking his A-levels. [SD 29]
At Peckinville
Trevor had been assigned to Dorley Hall for three years. He and his partner's main responsibility seemed to have been remaining on call somewhere off-site to transport washouts to Elle Lambert's custody, but they were also occasionally tapped for bodyguard duties, deliveries, and other odd jobs. At the time, he was not aware of the details of the Dorley programme nor Elle's washout program. [SD 29]
At some point, Trevor's partner Perry happened upon his unlocked phone and realised Trevor was gay; it's implied that Perry outed him to the rest of the squad. [SD 29]
On November 13th, 2019, following Declan's washout, Perry and Trevor were secretly drugged by Silver River agents, with Perry incapacitated the night before and replaced by Jake. Trevor gradually succumbs to the drug, falling asleep in the transport van shortly after Declan is loaded onboard. [SD 29]
At Stenordale
Confinement
Trevor reawakens in a Silver River medical facility where he spends three weeks chained to a hospital bed having undergone a series of medical procedures. He is visited by Dorothy Marsden, who taunts him, informing him that he was initially to be killed after Declan's abduction; he was spared, at her whim, due to his "pretty" looks and suitable build. She explains that he has undergone plastic surgery on his face and chest as well as an orchiectomy, and that one of her backers has agreed to fund his forced transition to female. [SD 29]
By the 16th of December, Trevor is transferred to Stenordale Manor where he is kept in isolation in a small bungalow on the grounds of the estate. Examining his body, he finds that his facial features have been softened and that he has been given large breast implants; he has also been put on a restrictive diet and female hormones. Trevor immediately begins suffering from severe gender dysphoria. He is initially only visited by Jake, who administers his hormone injections [SD 31] and has begun calling him "Theresa". [SD 29]
Trevor is soon visited in secret by Valérie, who confides her backstory to him [SD 29] and explains the workings of Dorothy's methods. The two begin to plot their escape; Valérie believes that for the two to have their best shot, Trevor must stay alive by acting as if he is complying with Dorothy's programme. [SD 30] Later, Frankie visits Trevor on Christmas Eve and talks him down from a dysphoric spiral and coaches him further on how to appease Dorothy. [SD 32]
On Christmas Day, Trevor is brought to the Manor to be presented to the Smyth-Farrow children at dinner. During dinner, Henrietta Smyth-Farrow reveals their plans for Trevor -- he will be put to work as a domestic servant but, more importantly, will also be used as a sort of proof-of-concept "display piece" used to promote the Smyth-Farrows new force-feminization enterprise, in the style of Dorothy's "old Dorley", to potential investors abroad. Henrietta informs Trevor that they also have plans for further modifications to his body; when Trevor vomits and collapses in distress, the Smyth-Farrows declare their disappointment in Dorothy's training and announce that they will immediately take custody of Trevor to train him themselves. Valérie intervenes, asserting that both the Smyth-Farrows and Dorothy are unable to properly train Trevor, they can only break him; as the person at Stenordale responsible for shaping broken men into "functional women", she will have him ready for service in six months. Intrigued, Henrietta agrees to three months. After escorting him back to Frankie's room to clean him up, Frankie and Valérie make a promise to Trevor that they will all "get out or bloody well die trying" before three months are up. [SD 32]
Following a disastrous confrontation in which Trevor and Valérie both prove to be no match physically for Jake, [SD 33] the two are no longer seen as a threat and their supervision is loosened. Trevor is moved into a room in the mansion where he continues his training under Valérie. Meanwhile, Trevor's dysphoria has not abated and he finds himself disassociating when applying his makeup and looking in mirrors; it becomes clear that his gender is not as mutable as Valérie's. [SD 34]
On January 2nd, a drunken Jake enters Trevor's room and sexually assaults him; he is narrowly rescued by Callum. [SD 35]
Escape
Two days later, Valérie, Frankie, and Trevor prepare for their escape attempt, taking advantage of a delivery of supplies from Silver River. As the two delivery men are moving a crate into the mansion, Frankie fires her taser at Jake, but misses, setting off a desperate skirmish between the trio, Jake, and Callum. Just as the advantage shifts back to the soldiers, Callum has a sudden change of heart and draws his weapon on the two Silver River delivery men, disabling one before before being shot and killed by the other. In the ensuing chaos, Trevor kills the other delivery man and Jake retreats into the manor to disable the estate's gate mechanism; Trevor has been wounded with a gash on his neck. Valérie, Frankie, and Trevor escape in the delivery van. [SD 35]
Early the next morning, the three abandon the van in an underground car park and wander the town of Stenordale where they eventually steal a car and drive to Almsworth. Along the way, Trevor struggles with being seen in public as a woman. [SD 36]
Later that morning around 10AM, the trio arrive at Dorley Hall. [SD 37]
At Dorley Hall
With everyone else too stunned to react, Tabitha lets the escapees into the kitchen. Assessing the situation, she leads Trevor away to get medical attention, taking a detour to a storage room on the the first floor to get Trevor a change of clothes. When Trevor becomes distressed, Tabitha reassures him that the Hall can help him detransition and that he can feel safe from judgement while residing there; collecting himself, Trevor makes a request to Tabitha to go easy on Frankie, revealing that she allowed Beatrice to escape back in 1988. [SD 37]
Tabitha takes him out to the Peckinville portacabins where he is introduced to Jan Golding and Dr. Fatima Rahman, who stitches up his neck. Trevor is recovering in a bed there when Frankie follows in the soldiers delivering an injured Ollie; the two go for a walk and get locked out of the Hall. Circling the building past the lake, they stop and, wracked with guilt, Frankie tells Trevor about the second, unnamed Dorley girl she helped escape in the nineties. [SD 38]
Back inside,Trevor is given a phone and is assigned a room next to Valérie's on the second floor. [SD 38] Returning to the medic's portacabin, he speaks briefly with Ollie, who, to Trevor's surprise, immediately percieves him as a trans man. Later, Trevor is informed by Mrs Prentice that he will need to wait at least three months to have his breast implants removed and that he should remain on estradiol in the meantime. [SD 39]
On his second day back, Trevor borrows an electric razor from a soldier and gives himself a buzzcut. [SD 39]
At the ranch
Trevor attends the debriefing with Elle Lambert on January 13th and is informed of the murder investigation at Stenordale Manor; [SD 41] after the debriefing, Trevor asks Elle for help with rushing the removal of his implants and she agrees to bring in another surgeon for a consultation. [SD 42] Trevor stays at the facility to meet with the surgeon, who agrees to remove his implants in February and will prescribe testosterone, but will not rush to reverse his facial feminization surgery. (Elle makes plans with Beatrice to introduce Trevor to Sammy, who is genderqueer, so ey might advise Trevor on living "necessarily out of the bounds of the binary".) [SD 44]
On January 21st, Trevor is reunited with Declan, now Diana, at her debriefing with Elle where the two are informed that Henrietta Smyth-Farrow wants possession of them both. [SD 44]
