Important Events in his Life:
Michael was born in 2312 in New York, the sixth of his parents' eight children to be born. Only his brother Lucas and sister Kara are younger than he is. One of the formative events of Michael's life occurred when he was just three years old. His father took him into space to see the starships at Spacedock and in the orbital drydocks. While they were in orbit, they got to watch the flagship of the fleet, the Enterprise-B arrive and dock at Starbase One.
Seeing the starships gave young Michael a drive to one day be out there, exploring the galaxy on one of those great vessels. When he started school he worked hard each year, trying to be at the top of his class by the end of each year. Some years he was, some years he wasn't, but he DID excel nonetheless. At age 15, he successfully took and passed the Starfleet Academy entrance exam, securing himself a place in what would become the class of 2334. He entered the academy at age 18.
In his fourth year at the Academy, he met and fell in love with Marcia Walters. They married when he was 24. Upon his graduation from the Academy, he was assigned to Starbase One, where he remained for several years. In 2340, the couple adopted Jason, an orphaned human boy of nearly six years of age. Three years later, they adopted a second orphan, a Vulcan this time, five year old Toroca.
Marcia took a job at Starfleet Headquarters so she could give the boys a stable home life. Michael very nearly considered leaving Starfleet or taking an assignment on Earth to be with them, but Marcia convinced him not to delay his career by doing that. The couple endured years of separation then as Michael went off to serve on various starships. After both boys had entered Starfleet Academy, Marcia too left Earth to serve on a starship.
Michael bounced from one assignment to the next, gaining ranks as he went. His first Command position came when he was assigned to serve as Deep Space 3's commanding officer. After his time on Deep Space 3, he served a brief stint as CO of Starbase One in Earth orbit, before being given command of the USS Challenger. His wife joined him on the Challenger, serving as his XO.
Both served with distinction, and when Michael was promoted again and given command of the protoype USS Dasheter, Starfleet allowed Marcia to transfer there as well, and remain his XO. As the years went by, they both gained rank, and Michael was named Commander of Galaxy Wing of the 12 Fleet. He is now a Fleet Admiral, and Marcia is his chief adjutant. They run GW12 from their flagship, the Dasheter.
