Ryoma Hoshino: Difference between revisions

# '''2365:''' Born on Lyshan VI - a colony on the Federation/Cardassian frontier. His father, a conservationist, maintained a small park on behalf of the colonial authority. Ryoma grew up with nature, wood-craft, butterflies and climbing. His mother worked for the colonial authority's spaceport, ensuring the flow of freight traffic.

# '''2374:''' The Lyshan System is captured by the Cardassian Union and Dominion forces. Ryoma and his family are forced to flee on a Pakled freighter to Starbase 129. This key hub of Starfleet intelligence gathering on the Cardassians throughout the century and the ongoing war effort stirred up ambitions of service within Ryoma.

# '''2376:''' With the end of the Dominion War, the Hoshinos moved back to Lyshan VI, a planet with more than its fair share of refugees. His mother aided the planetary authorities in their management of traffic and aid, while his father volunteered with resettlement efforts. In his down-time from school, Ryoma helped his father, fostering an interest in the peoples and technologies of the galaxy.

# '''2383:''' Ryoma graduates high school and begins to consider his future. Although he had made an application to Starfleet Academy, he delayed his decision to sign up at the behest of his father. The escalating war with the Gorn Hegemony worried his father, a pacifist at heart, who was greatly concerned what he saw as a growing militaristic slant within Starfleet.

# '''2384:''' Unable to take life on Lyshan VI any more, his head in the stars and the same people day-by-day, Ryoma applies for Starfleet Academy and is accepted. He uses the recommendation of a family friend from his time on Starbase 129 to endorse his membership - the same retired officer also requests Ryoma to help him take down his memoirs.

# '''2385:''' Ryoma arrives on Earth and begins training at the Academy. His first time on Earth, Ryoma sends some of that time getting in touch with his heritage with frequent visits to Japan - most of which involve parties.
