My Name is Robert John Powell and I currently play Lieutenant Alexander Richards, Chief science officer of the USS Gemini. I was born in Carshalton hospital, Surrey, England on the 6th of November 1984. In 1989 I moved with my family to a small city called Truro, in Cornwall where I have lived ever since. I have been writing Star Trek PC's since 1997 (2374) but have only been a member of Starbase 118 since 2011 (2388).


Owing to various health issues in late 2011, I took an ELOA from early 2012 until late 2012. Returning as an Ensign then, I have slowly but surely made my way up the ranks and am currently a Lieutenant. I have served on many different vessels in my time with this fleet and spent some time with some amazing writers, forging stories and forming friendships.


As to my current real life. At the moment, I am unemployed but actively seeking work. I have aspirations of going to university and studying journalism as I have a real passion for writing, something 118 allows me to do in spades. I live by myself in my own flat and have a solid group of friends I like to socialise with. I am also an avid gamer, with quite an interesting pool of games both in my Steam library and on various DVD's and CD's.


I was a volunteer moderator (Community Ambassador) in game for a company called Muse who produced the excellent Guns of Icarus Online. When you add this fact and my love of collaborative writing together, I hope you can come to the conclusion that I like close knit online communities. I also lead a competitive clan in Guns of Icarus online. The clan also has a close knit membership where we play many other games together outside of GOIO.

Past PC's


  • Aleana Dennis Aleana Dennis began life as a secondary PC on the USS Vigilant-A. Unfortunately due to time constraints, I felt i would be unable to manage both a primary and a secondary PC, especially if I wanted to become a part of the Academy team or eventually have my own command. To that end, Aleana was placed in the character hatchery to hopefully one day be adopted by somebody and given a new lease of life.
