Biography

Michael was born and grew up in the town of Corleone, Sicily, Earth.

He and his best friend Olivia spent their youth exploring the town of Corleone, climbing the foothills and swimming. Michael had always excelled at school and was a bright child. At the age of 9, it was discovered that he had developed an eidetic memory. After studying an image or scene for ten seconds, he is able to maintain a nearly perfect photographic memory of that image in his short term memory.

When Michael turned 16, the Minister of the V'Shar (Vulcan Ministry of Security), arranged to have Michael train with them. The Minister, Satok, was indebted to Michael’s father for saving his life 5 years earlier, and have been close friends since.

Michael found the transition difficult at first as the Vulcan’s were superior in terms of strength and logic. After a few weeks, he learned to use his assets, which were his agility, speed and intelligence. After the first year, it was evident and for all to see that Michael was a natural leader and tactical strategist. The second year saw Michael promoted to the elite security detail for the V'Shar, called the Sim're'Pelq'Ari (Elite Vulcan Defence Force).

During his time with them, he mastered many forms of martial arts as well as becoming skilled in covert operations, unarmed combat and information extraction. He was the youngest human ever to have the honour of being a Sim're (Elite member of the V'Shar).

By the time Michael was 18, he joined Starfleet Academy with a glowing reference from the Vulcan High Command and the head of the V'Shar, Minister Satok.

Although Michael excelled at Starfleet Academy, it also allowed him time to express himself. Michael was known for his legendary examination preparations, revise the night before an exam! He was able to do this because of his eidetic memory. His athletic prowess was also renowned, as he was the 100 metre sprint champion for three consecutive years, still holding the world record of 8.32 seconds. Michael’s reputation with the ladies was as famous.

Personality

Michael is a very calm and composed individual who is always in control. Due to his sociable and friendly character, he is a popular person to have around. He is an approachable individual with a killer smile. His charming and charismatic personality combined with his handsome Italian features make him a modern day Casanova.

Michael suffers from mild claustrophobia and this is because as a child, he became trapped in a walk-in fridge at his family restaurant, Ristorante Valentino.
