Caleb Lucas was a young woodsman at the Jamestown colony. When the infant Joanna Wingfield was kidnapped by a group of sims in 1610, Lucas volunteered to join the rescue mission led by Joanna's father, Edward. Wingfield and his companions, Allan Cooper and Henry Dale initially refused Lucas' offer, but the resourceful Lucas was able to follow them without their knowledge for some days. When he did present himself, the group relented and allowed him to join the expedition.

Lucas was generally more sympathetic to the sims when they found Joanna. He and the Wingfields escaped the encounter after Henry Dale attacked the sims, causing his and Allan Cooper's deaths.
