Including a majority of his core classes at Starfleet Academy, Tristam excelled in most of his classes in the [[Starfleet Engineering School/Components Engineering|Components Engineering course]], the exception being Weapons Systems. He also received low grades in Impulse Systems, one of only two propulsion classes he took. | Including a majority of his core classes at Starfleet Academy, Tristam excelled in most of his classes in the [[Starfleet Engineering School/Components Engineering|Components Engineering course]], the exception being Weapons Systems.

After graduating Starfleet Academy, Tristam was placed aboard the [[USS Pioneer]] as an Engineering Officer. He was promoted a year later to Lieutenant JG, and he began attempting to broaden his Engineering knowledge by learning more about the Pioneer's propulsion systems. | After graduating Starfleet Academy, Tristam was placed aboard the [[USS Pioneer]] as an Engineering Officer.

During 2387, [[Rahman, Roshanara|Lieutenant Roshanara Rahman]] was assigned to the Pioneer as a Research and Development Engineer, and the two supposedly became friends. Seven months after Rahman was posted, an R&D experiment involving her and Tristam supposedly caused multiple explosions in the Pioneer's Engineering department. Tristam was severely injured, losing his natural telepathic abilities and almost his left leg at the same time. He was placed on a medical leave of absence for 11 months to recover. | During 2387, [[Rahman, Roshanara|Lieutenant Roshanara Rahman]] was assigned to the Pioneer as a Research and Development Engineer, and the two supposedly became friends. | ||
As a Lieutenant JG, the power to Tristam's quarters were cut as a prank played by an Engineer of whom has not yet confessed - locking him in his quarters. In panic, Tristam (with a PADD and a tricorder) used the computer systems in Engineering to draw as much attention to himself as possible, flashing lights, taking over the ships speakers, and changing the language display of the Engineering consoles to Rodulan. He didn't think to just manually open the door. | |||

In mid-2388, Tristam was taken off leave, and requested a transfer into an Operations department. Despite this, he was stationed aboard [[Deep Space 17]] as an Operations Officer, but claims that the work is almost exactly the same as it would have been if he was assigned as an Engineer. Within his first week aboard the station, Tristam was involved in a 'scuffle' regarding misaligned circuits with a superior officer. The matter was resolved quickly and maturely under the watchful eye of the station's Chief of Security, [[Bakari, Msafiri|Lieutenant Msafiri Bakari]]. Three weeks later, Tristam almost blew out an entire deck of the station whilst working with plasma conduits. | In mid-2388, Tristam was taken off leave, and requested a transfer into an Operations department.

Tristam was promoted to full Lieutenant in 2389. During this period, he was asked to look after and mentor two cadets as he worked around the station; Cadets [[Nova, Vian|Vian Nova]] and Ukaramesh Blanufic (it should be noted, however, that Nova left the Academy during her time with Tristam). Blanufic remains in contact with Tristam, and is currently the Assistant Chief Engineer aboard the USS Evantair. | Tristam was promoted to full Lieutenant in 2389.

Whilst serving aboard the station, Tristam became involved in a hostage situation. Using his experience aboard the Pioneer, he alerted the station's Chief of Security to the situation by flashing the lights and taking over the speakers, using his tricorder. | |||
His time aboard DS17 began to draw to a close when Tristam was promoted to Lieutenant Commander in late 2390. After three years of working aboard a station, Tristam was transferred to the [[USS Vigilant-A]] as Chief of Operations in 239104, where he was required to take a crash course on the Vigilant's slipstream drive. He was reassigned again after barely three weeks to the [[USS Garuda]] as an Engineer at the request of the Garuda's Chief Engineer. | His time aboard DS17 began to draw to a close when Tristam was promoted to Lieutenant Commander in late 2390.

Left stranded for an unknown reason on the planet of Pleethion with a jamming field that was blocking their communications (and any communication signal), Tristam was able to rig a sort of remote control for the Galaxy class ship using his communicator, a PADD and two tricorders. He was able to successfully gain the attention of the unsuspecting Garuda by blasting "I'm a little tea pot" through the speakers around the ship and flashing the lights. | Left stranded for an unknown reason on the planet of Pleethion with a jamming field that was blocking their communications (and any communication signal), Tristam was able to rig a sort of remote control for the Galaxy class ship using his communicator, a PADD and two tricorders.

Having been used for a third time, Tristam plans on calling it "The Tea Pot maneuver". | ||
