Sparrow'', a Starfleet patrol ship assigned to the 'core worlds' of the [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]]. While his mother did appreciate her husband's wishes for Theo to follow in his footsteps, she also privately believed that her son should be allowed to make his own choices and thus did not oppose Theo's decision to enter Starfleet Academy. While she stood publicly by her husband, Theo was never the less aware of his mother's true feelings. | [[File:20080815parkstreet(1).png|thumb|Theo Whittaker's childhood home.]]During his teenage years, Theo spent two months every year living with his mother aboard the ''U.S.S.

Designed in part by his father to recreate the ancestral home of the Whittaker family who hailed from the United Kingdom as far back as the 16th century, Theo spent many years exploring the various tunnels underneath the mansion. On many occasions he used them to evade his father's punishments. Modern day technology was expressly forbidden in the house aside from replicators, an unusual side effect of this being, it sparked Theo's interest in technology and in engineering. | ||

Theo enrolled at Starfleet Academy at the age of eighteen, studying on the Engineering track and specializing in warp mechanics and theory. For the most part he was a model student, with only one near infraction when caught breaking back into the Academy grounds after curfew (he talked his way out of punishment). In his 2nd year he was involved in a bar fight but no disciplinary action was taken due to the fact he responded in self defense and he had recently lost his father. He graduated following a final exam at the training facilities aboard [[Starbase 118]]. | Theo enrolled at Starfleet Academy at the age of eighteen, studying on the Engineering track and specializing in warp mechanics and theory.
