• Condition: Initial Consultation • Counselor Notes: Counselor Rune Jolara, USS Apollo-A • Medical Notes: My initial consultation with Ensign Nate Wilmer was less than ideal. As it followed our mission to Pertainia Prime. During said mission, an individual lost his life and even though all reports indicate it was an accident, Ensign Wilmer blames himself. He refused to speak freely of the incident, stating that he is fine and simply is not ready to talk about it. His insistence that he is fine is of concern. Unfortunately, our meeting was cut short. I have scheduled a follow up.
COUNSELOR REPORT: SD 239112.?? • Condition: PTSD • Counselor Notes: Counselor Rune Jolara, USS Apollo-A • Medical Notes: Upon observation of various odd behaviors, including public intoxication, I am inclined to diagnose Ensign Wilmer with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It is my belief that it is a direct result of the incident on Pertainia Prime. It is my recommendation that Ensign Wilmer attend mandatory Counseling sessions until further notice.

Having cost him his rank and title, Sully plans to retire once he gets back into the civilian world, and perhaps open up his own freighter business. |

Charlie and Wilmer had an on-again/off-again relationship between 2386-2387. Even after Wilmer re-entered the Academy for officer extension courses, Charlie stayed in close contact with him and occasionally went on vacations with him. After Wilmer graduated from the academy a second time and was posted to the USS Excalibur-A., Charlie posed as his wife in order to gain favor with the ships captain. She petitioned to become the owner of the Round Table lounge, onboard ship. Once there, she manipulated her way to searching for an object that she believed was hidden somewhere in Wilmer's personal belongings. Nevertheless, she never had time to search Wilmer's quarters, because the Excalibur was decommissioned and all aboard (including civilians) were transferred elsewhere. Wilmer never got the chance to find out what Charlie was up to and she disappeared aboard a commercial freighter before he could speak to her. Since then, she has showed up on the USS Apollo-A, and opened a night club called Club Olympus. She has become friends with Nate's daughter Kael. Since transferring to the USS Constitution-B. She applied for the position of Literature Teacher, and has since gained that responsibility. She has become good friends to Nate's daughter, Kael Marrin.

Family
Do you think charm and good looks are going to advance your career, son? Wake up, before you realize you've done nothing with your life. - Captain Christopher Wilmer
 |
Christopher Wilmer Father Nate had an incredibly strained relationship with his father. Christopher Wilmer; though human, had been raised on Vulcan, and did not openly express his feelings for his son. He pushed Wilmer to carry on the family tradition of joining Starfleet. Over seven generations of Wilmer's family had served in Starfleet in one capacity or another, and Christopher Wilmer intended for his son to be no exception. Christopher Wilmer is cold, calculating, some might even say cruel. Nate Wilmer is by contrast, open, warm and gregarious by nature. Suffice it to say, they find they have little to talk about. |
 |
Cassie Templeton-Wilmer Mother Nate does not often speak of his mother, nor does he communicate with her. All that is known is that she was at one time a Captain in the applied sciences department (circa 2364.) Only very recently did she accept voluntary demotion to Lt. Cmdr. |

Biography
Early Years
(2355-2370)
Born in the infirmary onboard Utopia Planitia shipyards to Captain Christopher Wilmer (applied sciences Stafleet Command) and Cassie Templeton-Wilmer (Lt. Cmdr. Starfleet Research and development.) Nate Wilmer is a common "Starfleet Brat." Having no brothers or sisters, Nate grew up in an isolated environment. His first friend was a holographic tanuki named: Howard. Since his parents were often away, Nate had a tendency to find himself getting into trouble. Though not in trouble with the law, he did have a way of finding himself in places he should not be. Nate spent most of his young teenage life onboard the USS Knightsbridge, where his father was second officer. It was not until joining Starfleet Academy at age 16 that he even set foot on Earth.
Starfleet Academy
(2371-2375) At age sixteen, Nate quickly applied to Starfleet Academy, but did not have sufficient mathematics scores to become an officer at that time. Instead, he became an enlisted non-commissioned crewman. The death of his fiancée Cadet Aliza Nichols, caused Nate to fall into a depression and his graduation grades suffered as a result of this. Starfleet took pity on him, and with counseling allowed him to graduate as a non-com.
Jupiter Station
(2376-2387) Upon graduation, Nate was posted to Jupiter Station and served there for over ten years as its Jovian Run shuttle pilot. Despite his age, his commanding officer Master Chief Dick Sullivan, encouraged him to return to the Academy and take officers extension courses.
Starfleet Academy, readmission to Command School
(2387-2391) In 2387, upon the urging of his friend and mentor Dick Sullivan, Nate reapplied for Command Level Examinations. With help from colleagues concerning his lacking mathematical skills, his efforts were accepted by the academy and in July 2391, after four years, Nate graduated from Command School with the rank of Ensign.
USS Excalibur-A (2391) He served briefly aboard the USS Excalibur give a junior position in intelligence. The ship was quickly decommissioned.
USS Apollo-A and Murder Investigation by Starfleet (2391-2392) After that ship was decommissioned, he was transferred to the USS Apollo-A. During the mission to Petranaria Prime, Nate was given the task of defending the position of team while they deactivated a beaming jammer. During the course of that duty, Nate was forced to accidentally kill an oncoming attacker. The experience changed him slightly and his demeanor slightly sobered. Shortly thereafter, he earned a duty post change to become chief helm/conn operator; a position he'd longed for since his first days in the academy.
Ten years ago (roughly 2382) Master Chief Dick Sullivan, who was Nate's mentor, was involved in the murder of Cardassian Gul Skarpas. Skarpas was a convicted rapist and serial stalker, who had several warrants on the Klingon homeworld. Skarpas had begun to stalk Wilmer and Sullivan's friend: Bajoran Lt. Cmdr. Tara Nixi. Sullivan confronted Skarpas, asking him to leave Jupiter Station. Skarpas refused, a struggle ensued, and Skarpas was pushed to his death. Sullivan used Skarpas own Cardassian code breaker rod to alter the video records and then gave Nate the code breaker to hold onto.
Nate kept the secret for ten years, until it was discovered by FNS Reporter Lyndsey Fisher. Fisher took the information to Starfleet investigation, who confronted Sullivan. Sullivan admitted to what he had done, and gave a full confession in exchange to save Nate's commission. Nate was investigated by SFI investigator Kutek, a Vulcan, and admitted to his involvement as well. He surrendered his Cardassian code breaker in exchange for a full pardon.
USS Constitution-B (2392 - 239208.16) Nate served as First Officer aboard the USS Constitution (NCC-9012-B). He stepped down to support his friend Charlotte during a difficult time in her life. Though it was necessary to be attached to Starfleet Command Research for eight months, Nate does not regret this decision. Doing so allowed him to support his former lover, and in doing so, he gained a new friend in Necessity James.
Starfleet Command (239208.16 - 239305.11) Nate officially took a LOA during this period. All other information is classified.
Returning to Constitution-B (239305.11 - 239307.15)) Nate has resumed his rank aboard the Constitution, working in the HCO department, specifically under Ops.
Near Death Experience (239307.07)) While drinking with friends, Nate suffers a near fatal thermoelectric shock which causes his heart to stop for 7 seconds. He was resuscitated by Doctor Foster, however, during his time dead he encountered his longtime deceased fiancée Aliza Nicholson, who informed him she has always been with him.
The Delta Quadrant (239307.15 - 239310.10)) Nate is reassigned to the Delta Quadrant to serve aboard the USS Darwin-A as mission specialist.
Return to Jupiter Station (239310.10 - 239410.01)} Nate takes a LOA to return to Jupiter Station and Earth.
The Beta Quadrant (239410.01 - Current)) Nate is reassigned to the Beta Quadrant to serve aboard the USS Blackwell as the helmsman.
