Before Kelvin arrived on [[the Island]], he was involved with the U.S. military in the Gulf War. During the war, he was connected with [[Sam Austen]], [[Kate]]'s stepfather, and manipulated [[Sayid]], forcing him to act as a translator and torture Iraqi prisoners for information (although later Kelvin reveals that he can speak Arabic himself). After the war ended, Inman transferred a handcuffed Sayid to a deserted area, where he gave him money for "bus fare" back to Ramadi. Addressing Sayid's disapproval of the torture methods Inman forced him use, he tells him in Arabic that it will come handy in the future, before releasing him. Kelvin later told [[Desmond]] that he had been a spy for ten years but left because "...men followed my orders." He then joined the [[DHARMA Initiative]], which presumably brought him to the Island.

==On the Island==

−

Kelvin joined the [[DHARMA Initiative]] some time between 1991 and 2001. It is unknown how he came to [[the Island]]. He became the operator of [[the Swan]] research station with his partner, [[Radzinsky]]. According to Kelvin, Radzinsky committed suicide by putting a shotgun in his mouth and firing it, leaving a blood stain on the ceiling. Kelvin later buried him.[[Image:2X24 Kelvin.jpg|left|thumb|Kelvin preparing to draw on the [[blast door map]]]]

−

When Desmond's [[Sailboat ("Elizabeth")|boat]] shipwrecked, Kelvin was on the beach and rescued him. He asked Desmond the [[Snowman Joke]], and ''"Are you [[him]]?"''. When Kelvin realized that Desmond was not the man he expected to come, he showed him the station's [[Swan Orientation Film|orientation film]], and enlisted him as his partner to [[push the button]] in the Swan.

−

Kelvin continued working on the [[blast door map]] after Radzinsky died. This map was meant to plot the locations of the other DHARMA [[stations]] on the Island. Kelvin also told Desmond about the [[Fail-safe|fail-safe]] key.

−

Kelvin planned to escape the Island by secretly repairing the sailboat ''[[Sailboat ("Elizabeth")|Elizabeth]]'', under the guise of investigating the Island. He always donned a [[HAZMAT suit]] when he left the Hatch. On one of the days which Kelvin went to repair the boat, [[Desmond]] noticed the suit was damaged. He followed Kelvin and watched him take it off outside the Hatch. Desmond continued following him until Kelvin confronted him at the [[cove]]. He asked Desmond to join him, but Desmond refused. He attacked Kelvin, and accidentally killed him by slamming his head against the rocks.

−

It is important to note that Kelvin referred to [[the Others]] as 'the hostiles'.{{brclear}}

−

==Trivia==

−

* He was singing the old Iraqi national anthem while telling Desmond about the fail safe system.

−

* ''Kelvin'' is of English origin, and its meaning is "friend of ships". Also possibly a place name referring to a river.

−

*He was truly the last living member of the [[DHARMA Initiative]], beside Desmond who was a substitude for a unknown replacement.

*[[Kelvin's Dam (theory)]]

===Unanswered questions===

−

* How did he know Desmond crashed on the beach if he was pushing [[the button]]?

−

* How was Kelvin actually transported to the Island?

−

* Why did he lie to [[Desmond]] about the Island air being dangerous?

−

* Did he kill [[Radzinsky]]?

−

* He was left for dead on the rocks by Desmond, but did he actually die?

−

* If all members of DHARMA were wiped out in [[the purge]] (before Desmond met Inman), does that mean [[Kelvin]] was really an Other, since he cannot be a member of DHARMA if they were all wiped out?
