Odin Sinclair is a young recruit of the Soldiers of the One terror group circa 58 BCH (42YR).

A nonbeliever himself, Sinclair's parents are staunch monotheists, hiring men to render their son unconscious and transport him to Gemenon. On Gemenon, Sinclair meets Lacy Rand and the two travel aboard a jump ship to the monotheist retreat where the STO trains its members. A group of Apolli polytheist rebels boards the jump ship while en route and holds the recruits hostage, giving them the option to renounce their "One True God" or face execution. Sinclair and Rand plan to take action, but when the situation comes to a head, it is Rand who acts, attacking the lead hijacker, Kevin Reikle, and forcing STO leader Diego to step in and reveal the situation to be a test.

At the monotheist retreat, Sinclair and Rand are welcomed by Reikle and Diego at a reception and dinner for the new recruits. However, Sinclair and Rand are shocked to see the recruits who fail the test put to death by a single U-87―a sign to Sinclair of exactly what the STO is capable of ^{(CAP: "Blowback")}.

As an unwilling participant in the STO training, Sinclair is unafraid of the consequences of possessing contraband such as illicit drugs and a holoband in the dormitory. He uses the band in his spare time to have simulated sex with an avatar of Rand, unbeknownst to the real-world counterpart ^{(CAP: "The Heavens Will Rise")}. During a training session, he witnesses Rand exert control over one of the STO's U-87 soldier robots. Sinclair is just as surprised by this as everyone else and tries to question Rand about her ability. Rand begins kissing Sinclair in order to avoid questions, namely regarding Zoe Graystone, that she is unwilling or unable to answer, and Sinclair relents ^{(CAP: "The Heavens Will Rise")}.

Sinclair later approaches Reikle and Diego, telling the STO trainers that he does not want to be involved in whatever conflict arises from Rand's influence over the U-87s. Intrigued by Sinclair's position, Reikle and Diego enlist Sinclair to kill Rand. When the time comes to execute her, Sinclair turns his gun on Reikle and Diego and attempts to shoot them, but the gun is not loaded. Reikle and Diego threaten him at gunpoint but are caught off guard when several other recruits appear and kill the two men. Sinclair and the other rebellious recruits prepare to escape Gemenon but stay when Rand offers another idea — activating the squad of U-87s and commanding them to follow her ^{(CAP: "Here Be Dragons")}. Rand subsequently stages a coup over the leadership of the monotheist church and assumes the position of Blessed Mother of the monotheist church, with Sinclair serving as her lieutenant ^{(CAP: "Apotheosis")}.

Notes

• According to the podcast commentary, actor Ryan Kennedy and Magda Apanowicz watched the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica together on set during the production of Caprica.
• The writers intended for Odin's relationship with Lacy Rand to be a more "grown-up" and "dangerous" one, contrasting with what Apanowicz described as Lacy's "schoolyard crush" on Keon Gatwick.
