===Prior History=== | |||
Jim was born in space--the medical bay of Starbase 211, between [[Betazed]] and [[Cardassian]] territory--and was given the name Jackford Benjamin Kolk, but he only lived in space for a year and four months. Shortly after his father and older sister died in a [[Cardassian]] attack, he, his eldest brother, and his mother left the Starbase to live on Earth. They were taken in by his uncle on his father's side, who lived in Seattle, WA. From that time on, his brother [[Kolk, Jarod|Jarod]] refused to ever travel anywhere again, despising all technology and [[Starfleet]] especially for "killing" their father. Jim, however, dreamed of the stars from very early on, and loved traveling all over [[Earth]]. They had an uncle, Frank, on their mother's side, who lived and taught in Oxford whom Jim would visit nearly every summer from about the age of three on until graduating from Starfleet Academy. Uncle Frank pulled some strings to get Elisabeth a teaching position at Oxford University, but she declined the opportunity because of [[Kolk, Jarod|Jarod]]'s absolute refusal to travel. Instead, she began teaching at a local high school and eventually became the principal of the school. [[Kolk, Jarod|Jarod]] tought mathematics there until Elisabeth's death, tending to avoid applying his skill in mathematics to anything warp-related, although he did teach basic warp-field mathematics because the school board required him to. The brothers hardly spoke to each other at all, though their mother always tried to encourage each of them to "reach out" to the other. Jim was always a bit closer to both of his uncles than to his mother, though he tried to send her regular updates on his life while at the Academy. When their mother died, however, [[Kolk, Jarod|Jarod]] finally honored her wishes for them to become closer by moving to [[Deep Space 17]] so that he and Jim could see each other. In the alternate universe of Jim's origin, he was killed when the station was stacked by Gorn shortly after he moved there. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
Jim's first experience with "romance" was at age 8. While visiting his uncle Frank alone during summer break, an older girl (9-years) named Sandra McKenna decided it would be exciting to kiss a non-Earth-born Human and so set her sights on young Jack. He evaded her for many weeks, but 3 days before he scheduled return to Seattle, she cornered him in a secluded section of the historical University of Oxford Botanical Gardens and laid a wet one on him. After she let him up, he wiped off his wet lips and ran off crying. | |||
<br> | |||
<br> | |||
While Jim was in the [[Academy Library|Academy]], he dated several female students, but none seriously. Upon graduation and assignment to [[Deep Space 17]], he found himself embroiled in a war and interpersonal conflict, leaving no time for romance. Deeply traumatized by the calamitous Gorn War in his native [[Universe 107-LS9|universe]], he accidentally made his way into ours, causing havoc for years until he was apprehended by his local universe alternate, [[Kolk, Jackford|Cmdr. Jack Kolk]]. Finally admitting to extreme psychological trauma, [[Valis|LtCmdr. Valis]] assisted the two in a bridging mind meld. Following the meld, he was admitted to psychological care at [[Starbase 211]] and later chose to change his name to James Tiberius Kolk when restored to commission as a Starfleet Officer.<br> | |||

Jim was always a bit closer to both of his uncles than to his mother, though he tried to send her regular updates on his life while at the Academy. When their mother died, however, Jarod finally honored her wishes for them to become closer by moving to Deep Space 17 so that he and Jim could see each other. In the alternate universe of Jim's origin, he was killed when the station was stacked by Gorn shortly after he moved there.
Jim's first experience with "romance" was at age 8. While visiting his uncle Frank alone during summer break, an older girl (9-years) named Sandra McKenna decided it would be exciting to kiss a non-Earth-born Human and so set her sights on young Jack. He evaded her for many weeks, but 3 days before he scheduled return to Seattle, she cornered him in a secluded section of the historical University of Oxford Botanical Gardens and laid a wet one on him. After she let him up, he wiped off his wet lips and ran off crying.
While Jim was in the Academy, he dated several female students, but none seriously. Upon graduation and assignment to Deep Space 17, he found himself embroiled in a war and interpersonal conflict, leaving no time for romance. Deeply traumatized by the calamitous Gorn War in his native universe, he accidentally made his way into ours, causing havoc for years until he was apprehended by his local universe alternate, Cmdr. Jack Kolk. Finally admitting to extreme psychological trauma, LtCmdr. Valis assisted the two in a bridging mind meld. Following the meld, he was admitted to psychological care at Starbase 211 and later chose to change his name to James Tiberius Kolk when restored to commission as a Starfleet Officer.
