==Character History==
By the time he was six years old, Daniel already knew what he wanted to do with his life. He was inspired by his father to become a Starfleet officer, even though his mother wanted him to become a physician. In high school he achieved top grades and was thought of as a very hard working, conscientious person, always putting others first. He was known for constantly questioning teachers and sometimes coming out on top. As a member of his school's running team, he competed in many events.  Whilst at Buckie High School Daniel made a friend for life, [[Mann, Kristopher | Kristopher Mann]]; they have continued to support each other through their chosen careers.  When Daniel broke the news to Kris, that he had applied for the academy, he was devastated, and this in turn affected Daniel. They both mutually agreed they would still be there for one another even when they had parted.  They see each other as much as possible, but it is difficult given Daniel's chosen career.


Daniel went into denial over his father's death and vowed to avenge the loss. He overcame his denial through an unlikely bonding with a young Klingon boy, [[Artok|Artok]].  They formed a friendship that could never be defeated, and both boys stayed in touch despite going their separate ways.  As a result of this friendship, Daniel has become very fluent in Klingonese and enjoys many Klingon rituals.
===Physical Characteristics===


After leaving school, he took a six month break to visit Qo'noS and support his friend [[Artok | Artok]], as he joined the Klingon Defense Force. After this, he submitted his papers for the Academy and gained entrance.

* '''Stardate 238302.08''': Daniel served with a remarkable enthusiasm for his job, something I admire in a person. Many officers spoke to me about to Cadet Woods' remarkable ability to perform what was asked of him. During his time aboard the Invincible, Daniel took part in battle drills, intruder alert simulations, Brig and Armory operations and, notably, the day to day Security of the ship. It has been a pleasure having him serve his cruise aboard the ''Invincible'' and I wish him well for the future. - Lt. Vicki Brown

===='''Command School - Year One'''====
====Command School - Year One====
* After studying his options and weighing them against his ambitions and goals, Daniel decided to remain at the Academy and continue his studies at Command School. He found year one the most boring as it was mainly lectures and seminars, although during that time he learned a lot about how command should work. His background of helping others and his minor in Communications/Operations were greatly beneficial in this part of the course.

===='''Command School - Year Two'''====
====Command School - Year Two====
* Year Two saw Daniel flourish as a budding command potential. Simulation after simulation saw Daniel lead the crew and help the crew in times of crisis. Daniel's time on the Titan had held him in good stead and certainly kept him flowing in enthusiasm till the end of the course.

* '''Stardate 238309.05''': I have seen many young Ensigns pass through my doors over the years, a lot of them still arrogant and cocky. However there's always the exceptional minority that are born to lead others through bad times and others, I truly believe great things could become of this young man, if he sticks at it and produces only the best, much in the same way he has given me these past two years. I hope one day to here of this young mans success and place with rest. Such as Kirk, Picard, Janeway. This young man has an extraordinary ability to lead and his manner and work ethic is certainly one to be proud of and admired. I wish him every luck for the future and hope he makes his Commanding Officers proud like he has made me. - Prof Enrique Shriver

===Psychological Records===
===Psychological Records===
* '''Stardate 237608.20''': Daniel seems to be a very determined young man with many goals and ambitions. His Dad's death seems to have made him a much stronger person and has had a dramatic impact on his life. Daniel is, without a doubt, a very outgoing and confident person who reacts well to both group and solo activities. I, Lt.Cmdr Damien Scott, declare Cadet Daniel Wood mentally fit for entry into the Academy. -Lt. Cmdr. Damien Scott (Chief Counselor, Starfleet Academy)
All Psychological Records for D.Wood can be accessed here: [[D.Wood Psychological Records|Psychological Records]]
 
* '''Stardate 237804.16''': After the death of his father, Daniel assumed the responsibility of "man of the house," which placed him under great stress to perform. He saw what his father did as an act of bravery for his crew, and felt that he had to do the same. After numerous counseling sessions, Daniel decided that, although his father is worthy of his respect, he has no obligation to live up to his father's standards. As a result, Daniel has developed greater pyschological strength, and will make a fine officer some day.  He consistently puts others first, and this, in addition to his ability to listen to their problems and offer excellent advice, will benefit him in his first command.  As a note for the record, I, Lt. Cmdr. Terri Farquhar would like Daniel to become a counselor. -Lt. Cmdr. Terri Farquhar (Chief Counselor, Starfleet Academy)
 
* '''Stardate 238505.02''': Daniel has exhibited extensive emotional maturity since my initial psychological profile over a year ago. He is exceptionally aware of his own position and of those around him as people rather than names or numbers. I believe him to be a highly emotional man, though this can serve him both well and ill, as he may sometimes lead with his heart rather than considering the all possibilities within a given situation. However, he is more than fit for duty and is released without mandatory referral. -Lt. Cmdr. [[Ventu, Lily|Lily Ventu]] (Chief Counselor, USS Independence-A)


===Serving Officers Reports===
===Serving Officers Reports===
* '''Stardate 238501.17.''': Daniel has exhibited outstanding potential for leadership on this course, showing nothing but command potential and a skill to look after others. he worked exceptionally well under harsh conditions effectively utilizing the few resources available to him.  During his weapons testing, he showed extreme accuracy, and was obviously born to wield weapons. He has been certified as a team leader for the highly adaptable 501st Rapid Response Task Force, and has been given command of Alpha Squad, a role I personally think he will continue to thrive in. The final test of the Rapid Response Training, which included a joint operations assault, was canceled due to reasons I cannot disclose. I would like to take this opportunity to offer both my congratulations and best wishes for the future. I look forward to having this fine officer under my command in the missions to follow. - Cmdr. Jones (Commanding Officer, 501st Rapid Response Task Force)

{| border='2' cellspacing='0'
* Daniel initially found it difficult to adapt to life in Starfleet and rapidly fell behind in his classes.  After a meeting with the Commandant, he was ordered to seek counseling to determine whether this trend would continue. Lt. Cmdr. Terri Farquhar requested that Daniel be placed under her care, although to this day it is not clear why. Daniel regained a steady pace, but remained behind the rest of his classmates.  He barely passed his first year.

{| border='1' cellspacing='0'
* Daniel continued to see Lt. Cmdr. Farquhar and between them managed to solve his problems.  He worked extra hard to catch up with his classmates, sacrificing many pleasures to do so.  After months of physical and mental training, Daniel sat for his exams and passed with good grades.  This boosted his confidence and gained him the confidence of his instructors and the Academy Commandant.

* Daniel decided to end his sessions with Lt. Cmdr. Farquhar, having learned to discuss issues with his classmates.  At the same time, his classmates confided in Daniel more than ever, and his extreme ability to deal with people and situations attracted the attention of both the Commandant and Lt. Cmdr. Farquhar.  He was approached separately on numerous occasions, with requests to change from Security to Counseling; each time he refused. Daniel's confidence grew, and he began questioning instructors and their theories; something he knew they didn't like. At times he knew it was futile, but he got results with some of his reasoning.

* Daniel's continued success in class and top marks made his final Academy year the best. During this time, he prepared himself mentally for the Kobayashi Maru and Psych Test, and proved himself to be highly suited to the role of a Security Officer by gaining top marks in his Command test. His teacher, Lt. Cmdr. [[Riley, Sidney|Sidney Riley]], would later be First Officer upon his first posting after the Academy.  After successfully completing all three tests, Daniel proudly accepted his graduation and subsequent promotion to Ensign. One of the many attendees at his graduation was Lt. Cmdr. Farquhar, the man who supported Daniel through his Academy Days.

* '''Stardate 238405.09''': Daniel's first mission with the [[USS Independence-A]] was a rescue mission. The USS Benjamin Franklin was exploring an area in the [[Ithassa Region]] known as [[Bull's Run]] when it suddenly disappeared, its last known contact being an emergency beacon. When the Independence arrived at the beacon, she soon found herself being pulled through a wormhole arriving at an alien way station. A great amount of data was accumulated for research. Three members of the crew were kidnapped; [[Anassasi, Jessa Kyrn|Admiral Anassasi]], Lieutenant [[Makno]] and Ensign Wood, and the crew attempted an extraction and rescue operation. [[Anassasi, Jessa Kyrn|Admiral Anassasi]] was able to negotiate their release and subsequent return of the USS Benjamin Franklin which had also been held captive. Once the [[USS Independence-A]] was allowed to leave, the ship traversed a wormhole which carried them to [[StarBase 118]]. However a temporal displacement occurred and the Independence was quarantined. Facts on this mission are sketchy due to the Department of Temporal Investigations classifying the mission details. However, something Daniel did on this mission earned him the respect of his crew and Daniel received a promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade on Stardate 238408.07.

* '''Stardate 238409.17''': Wood's second mission was a Search and Rescue mission. Whilst looking for the [[USS Euphrates]], the [[USS Independence-A]] came under attack and was boarded by hostile aliens, believed to be T'lithians. During this mission, Wood led Security forces through the ship sweeping for intruders and also carried out a retrieve and escort mission. Also whilst serving this mission he acted as a Security/Marine Liason Officer alongside Trooper [[Somers, Alexandria|Alexandria Somers]]. Their training prevailed when Security & Marine forces worked together to defend the crew and the [[USS Independence-A]]. During this eventful mission the Independence took minor casualties, losing sixteen crew members and recording one MIA, believed to be dead; Gunnery Sergeant Highway.

* '''Stardate 238411.20''': Whilst docked at [[Midway Repair Facility|Midway Station]], Daniel had to break off the end of his shore leave to investigate an attack on one of crew; Lt. (J.G.) [[Ethelwin, Tildaen|Tildaen Ethelwin]]. Working with the Chief of Security from [[Midway Repair Facility|Midway]], both mutually agreed Lt (J.G.) Wood should take the lead on the investigation. This was to be Daniel's first time investigating a crime, with no help from specialists and time being of the essence, Wood utilised what resources he had to gain a secure conviction. The suspect was later captured in his quarters aboard Midway. Lt. (J.G.) [[Ethelwin, Tildaen|Tildaen Ethelwin]] did not want to press charges so no charges were filed.

Wood was in charge of protecting the away team from any threats along with Ensign [[Sharpe, Paul|Paul Sharpe]]. Whilst maintaining a line of patients into the surgery, a bomb exploded next to a generator. Wood immediatly responded to the threat to find Lt. [[Reynolds, Quinn|Quinn Reynolds]] in a critical condition with Lt. Cmdr. [[Ventu, Lily|Lily Ventu]] performing emergency medicine on her. All away team members were pulled from the planet as a precaution. Lt. (J.G.) Wood was pulled from the mission by Admiral Quinn in order to attend Officers Rapid Response School.

* '''Stardate 238501.11''': Wood attended the Officers Rapid Response School, where upon he was given command of Alpha Squad of the 501st Rapid Response Task Force. Cmdr. Jones had nothing but high praise for him. Daniel chose to challenge himself and his team during this time, by choosing a Holodeck Simulation that required no weapons and no casualties to be taken, this was probably one of the harder programs offered by the Academy. Daniel and his team fared well in this Simulation given they hardly knew each other. During their weapons test, it became obvious that Daniel was born to be in Security, gaining high marks along with the whole division. Daniel graduated with high marks in all his tests however the final test was cancelled by Starfleet Security. The reason for this has been Classified. As of Stardate 238501.17 Daniel is now a fully qualified Starfleet Rapid Response Officer for the 501st Task Force.

* '''Stardate 238502.05''': The [[USS Independence-A]], the [[USS Ronin]] and the [[USS Ursa Major]] were pulled through a wormhole to the Galactic Barrier. During this mission, Wood was left as Chief of Security and had to defend the [[USS Independence-A]] from an unknown alien threat. After a fierce firefight on Deck 7 and calling General Quarters Five, Wood managed to establish first contact. Working alongside his fellow officers, Wood was able to further communicaton but at the price of feeling the aliens severe pain. Eventually the situation was resolved and all three vessels and crews returned home, with the alien returning to a higher state of existance.

* '''Stardate: 238503.24''': During the second day of the [[USS Independence-A]]'s trip back to Deep Space 17, a call was made to Security regarding a food fight in the Officers Lounge. Wood was ordered to attend to the Brig and take statements. Statements were taken from Officers who were innocent including Lt's [[Cruise, Allen|Allen Cruise]], [[Reynolds, Quinn|Quinn Reynolds]], [[Sharpe, Paul|Sharpe Paul]] and Ensign [[Eete, Eilis|Eilis Eete]]. [[Anassasi, Jessa Kyrn|Admiral Anassasi]] concluded the punishment for the two trouble makers should be the cleaning of all 5,000 torpedoes on DS17 and for the others who joined was the cleaning of the [[USS Independence-A]]'s torpedoes. Thus concluding the Investigation.

Character History

By the time he was six years old, Daniel already knew what he wanted to do with his life. He was inspired by his father to become a Starfleet officer, even though his mother wanted him to become a physician. In high school he achieved top grades and was thought of as a very hard working, conscientious person, always putting others first. He was known for constantly questioning teachers and sometimes coming out on top. As a member of his school's running team, he competed in many events. Whilst at Buckie High School Daniel made a friend for life, Kristopher Mann; they have continued to support each other through their chosen careers. When Daniel broke the news to Kris, that he had applied for the academy, he was devastated, and this in turn affected Daniel. They both mutually agreed they would still be there for one another even when they had parted. They see each other as much as possible, but it is difficult given Daniel's chosen career.

Daniel went into denial over his father's death and vowed to avenge the loss. He overcame his denial through an unlikely bonding with a young Klingon boy, Artok. They formed a friendship that could never be defeated, and both boys stayed in touch despite going their separate ways. As a result of this friendship, Daniel has become very fluent in Klingonese and enjoys many Klingon rituals.

After leaving school, he took a six month break to visit Qo'noS and support his friend Artok, as he joined the Klingon Defense Force. After this, he submitted his papers for the Academy and gained entrance.

  • Daniel enjoys a morning run in the English countryside, either the holodeck or the real thing, before starting his lessons.

Cadet Cruise

  • Daniel's cadet cruise was served aboard the Nebula class vessel USS Invincible, under the command of Captain Kelly Ching. During his time aboard the vessel, Daniel carried out different activities, although these were mainly in his trained post as a Security Officer. He saw his time on the vessel as a learning experience and a chance to see how the real world operates.
Stardate 238302.08: Daniel served with a remarkable enthusiasm for his job, something I admire in a person. Many officers spoke to me about to Cadet Woods' remarkable ability to perform what was asked of him. During his time aboard the Invincible, Daniel took part in battle drills, intruder alert simulations, Brig and Armory operations and, notably, the day to day Security of the ship. It has been a pleasure having him serve his cruise aboard the Invincible and I wish him well for the future. - Lt. Vicki Brown

Command School - Year One

  • After studying his options and weighing them against his ambitions and goals, Daniel decided to remain at the Academy and continue his studies at Command School. He found year one the most boring as it was mainly lectures and seminars, although during that time he learned a lot about how command should work. His background of helping others and his minor in Communications/Operations were greatly beneficial in this part of the course.

Command School - Year Two

  • Year Two saw Daniel flourish as a budding command potential. Simulation after simulation saw Daniel lead the crew and help the crew in times of crisis. Daniel's time on the Invincible had held him in good stead and certainly kept him flowing in enthusiasm till the end of the course.
Stardate 238309.05: I have seen many young Ensign's pass through my doors over the years, a lot of them still arrogant and cocky. However there's always the exceptional minority that are born to lead others through bad times and others, I truly believe great things could become of this young man, if he sticks at it and produces only the best, much in the same way he has given me these past two years. I hope one day to here of this young mans success and place with the rest. Such as Kirk, Picard and Janeway. This young man has an extraordinary ability to lead and his manner and work ethic is certainly one to be proud of and admired. I wish him every luck for the future and hope he makes his Commanding Officers proud like he has made me. - Prof Enrique Shriver
