'''Early Life'''
'''<big>Early Life</big>'''


Nathan was born in Big Fork, Montana to Jennifer and Patrick Richards. Nathan grew up loving the outdoors, spending most of his time amongst the trees and rocks of the Glacier National Forest, with which his family was responsible for maintaining and protecting. While his parents hadn't been members of Starfleet, Nathan had grown up hearing stories from other family members about their lives among the stars and it spurred his imagination. He began to dream of a life among the stars, aboard a starship, searching for new life and technology. From then on, Nathan knew he wanted to join Starfleet.

'''Starfleet Academy'''
'''<big>Starfleet Academy</big>'''
 
It would have been an understatement to say that Nathan was excited when he was accepted into Starfleet Academy. His major was of course selected as Engineering with a specialty in propulsion, and his minor settled into Helm and Ops. Proudly, he excelled within both his major and minor fields, with only a few hold ups along the way. One particular evening found Nathan and several of his classmates "commandeering" some of the Academy's training shuttles for a late night race around San Fransisco Bay. With shenanigans aside, Nathan continued to focus on his studies and graduated from Starfleet Academy.

It wasn't long before Nathan received word of his very first posting aboard Amity Outpost. What he hadn't expected was the 6 weeks of travel onboard a Quantum Slipstream Vessel. During this downtime, Nathan had plenty of opportunity to study up on the facilities that Amity Outpost had to offer, as well as the crew and Command. But all of the reading he had done could never have prepared him for the adventures and people that he was going to meet once he arrived.

Shortly after ringing in the new year of 2400, Amity played host to several tribes of Hirogen in peace negotiations. The Federation presents in the Delta Quadrant participated in War Games with the Hirogen that opened the door to possible future cooperation between the two powers.

With work on the Targhee finally finished, Nathan and his hard work were selected to assist members of the Betazoid nobility in another visit to the Idrustix colony, where they were pulled into yet another subspace anomaly that took them to a parallel universe where the Betazoid Empire held control over the Delta Quadrant. This was ultimately resolved with everyone returning to their own universe, but at the cost of the Targhee. {{LCARS-bar-heading|Service Record|COLOR=#BB8A33}}
