He was the CSO aboard the Ambassador-class ''USS Reiver'' (NCC 34496), retiring not long before his eldest son was born and after a shuttle crash on Earth. William emerged unscathed, but the Reivers First Officer - William's brother-in-law - died on impact. When their first child was born - and at William's suggestion - they named the boy Arturo after his uncle.

His sons found his award case one afternoon however, and saw at least a dozen different Starfleet awards as well as  “a couple” of Klingon medals, and one of Bajoran origin.
As a result of the accident - and despite being the first Maxwell to attain the rank of Lt.Cdr. - William was very quiet about his Starfleet service and very rarely wore his ribbons or any insignia at formal occasions. His sons found his award case one afternoon however, and saw at least a dozen different Starfleet awards as well as  “a couple” of Klingon medals, and one of Bajoran origin.
William earned numerous Science Awards, and these are displayed in his study in the family home.

Abrielle is Maxwell's mother, the Italian Matriarch of the family. She is a Civilian Administration Clerk at a Starfleet Storage Yard near the family home. Abrielle is always on the lookout for a "nice girl" for her two boys, whilst always keeping at least one eye on the intentions of any potential suitors for her daughter, Rosetta.

Abrielle is always on the lookout for a "nice girl" for her two boys, whilst always keeping at least one eye on the intentions of any potential suitors for her daughter, Rosetta.
Abrielle insists upon talking to her children in Italian, in order that they keep speaking it, and she also communicates at home with her husband in the same way. One of their little quirks is the playful argument from William that he wishes she wouldn't speak Italian all the time as he can hardly understand a word she says. The reality is that her husband - without needing to - learned Italian in secret whilst they were still courting, so that when the time came he could ask for her parents consent to marry her in the language they both always spoke.

As the eldest son, Arturo bears the brunt of Abrielle's well-intentioned matchmaking - much to Henry's delight and amusement.

Henry Maxwell always wanted to be a Marine alongside his brother, and it was a dream that both boys shared growing up.
Henry Maxwell always wanted to be a Marine alongside his brother, and it was a dream that both boys shared growing up.
Life had different plans however, with Arturo failing to get into the Marines and then finding himself on the path to becoming a Tactical Officer upon his second attempt at the Academy. Henry also failed his first attempt at joining the Marines, and left it at that. Instead he focused on his day job as a delivery driver and his weekends playing rugby for the local amateur-level team, the Jedburgh Hammers where he became a bit of a hero amongst local fans. Henry visited his brother a few times on Starbase 118 and found that he quite liked the place, moving there permanently in 239511 at the same time as his niece, Milly.

Still looking for a regular job, in the meantime Henry has discovered the stations four-tier ice hockey competition and has managed to get himself into the bench for the Dry Dock Wharfers, a Delta League team based in the San Francisco District.

In early 2397, Henry spent some time back in Scotland after his fathers funeral, before returning to Starbase 118 as a Freelance Investigative Journalist on Stardate 239801.09.

Rosetta Maxwell is Milly's "second bestest lady in the universe", right after her GranMama. She is also quite close to her brother, Henry, loves her mother dearly and would do anything for her father. Rosetta does not get along with her other brother however, and the two are quite open about their dislike for one another. Arturo's claiming of some Irish girl from next door as his "sister" is perfectly fine with Rosetta, as it means she doesn't have to bother being one. Except of course at family gatherings when she has no option, and will exchange a curt greeting with Arturo before ignoring him for the rest of the evening.

Janice is Max's Aide, reporting to him directly and ensuring the neat organization and smooth running of Max's office in his role of CTO. More recently she has willingly taken up the same duties over again now that Max is also the stations second officer. Whilst it means a great deal of extra work, it also means a great deal more time spent around a man that she adores. Knowing that he regularly works right through or sometimes sleeps in his office, Janice makes sure there is always a folded blanket on the short sofa, and a clean uniform neatly folded in the bottom drawer of Max's desk.

For one of the Senior Staff beach parties, she made sure there was a package on his desk containing Hawaiian shorts, a tshirt and flip flops waiting for him after a late meeting. Whilst Max is eternally grateful for her exceptional level of help and all her thoughtful little acts, he is completely oblivious to the way she can sometimes be seen looking at him.

From the first day they met aged nine, Max was hopelessly in love with Karey. The pair were always seen sat together, reading together or holding hands. As their teenage years arrived this innocent friendship developed rapidly into much, much more despite Karey's emerging narcissism and quiet manipulation of Max. Max was what she wanted at the time, on and off. And then on and off again, ditching him whenever a new boy took her fancy for a few days or a week or two. So completely had Max been reeled in he could not see any of this, and would not hear a bad word said about Karey no matter how many times she broke his heart. Their college years marked the low point, with Max being routinely humiliated, belittled and sometimes drunkenly hit by the woman he absolutely adored. At one month of age, Amelia was dumped at her Grandparents home by Karey who chose to swan off and live the life of parties and excess, swooping back into Max's life at random over the years whenever the fancy took her.
