'''Josiah Whittaker ''': Perhaps the most defining relationship of Theo's life is the frought and complex one with his father. A staunch traditionalist, Josiah Whittaker intended for his children to follow him into a life of academia as had 19 generations of Whittaker's before him. Being the main caregiver for the infant Theo while his mother served in Starfleet, Josiah had Theo accepted into all the best schools and was relentles in his education. What he had not counted on was Theo inheriting his mother's rebellious nature. He did not want to follow in his father's footsteps and as a result the relationship detoriated over time. The younger Whittaker would often test his father's patience by refusing to study, disappearing off into the nearby mountains for days at a time or even hide out in the tunnels underneath Whittaker Manor. When Theo turned he announced to his parents that he wanted to enter Starfleet Academy and, naturally, Josiah forebade it. Over the next twelve months, their relationship eroded completely and the last time Theo spoke to his father was the day he left to join his mother aboard the ''U.S.S. Sparrow''. During Theo's first year at the Academy, Josiah contracted Meenok's Disease and sucuumbed to it a year later. Neither father or son made an attempt to repair their relationship- the guilt of which has stayed with Theo ever since. | '''Josiah Whittaker ''': Perhaps the most defining relationship of Theo's life is the frought and complex one with his father.
