Born in the Eurasian Hills of Britain and from the tender age of 10, the young Paul was fascinated by Vulcan’s, mostly for their humour, or lack thereof. As a school project, the young Paul whose friends had nicknamed him Phoenix watched him go off to Vulcan and attend schooling on with Vulcan studies; he would be assigned a Vulcan family who had agreed to take part in such a project. This project would be a two year study, his other studies would be sent to his Vulcan school. Two years later the twelve year old Paul returned to earth with a basic recommendation from the Vulcan’s, this was their way of showing praise for a human child with his studies. For the remainder of his schooling, the emotional control which he had quickly picked up that teaching.

For Sharpe when he turns 16, in this alternate reality Sharpe was not known as Paul Sharpe, but the use of his nickname became what people called him in his older years. His nickname was Phoenix, he never knew why they gave him that name, but he was given it; just before the assault on earth by the Breen during the Dominion War Sharpe went for his initial test for Starfleet Academy when the Breen attacked earth and shortly behind them came the Dominion Fleet, this batch had been the Second Wave. With the bulk of its forces in the field the ships defending earth were older classes and while they put up a brave resistance the ships were destroyed and earth quickly fell. | |||
For months after news kept coming in of the losses, his on and off girlfriend Alexandria Somers and her entire family were killed in the final bombardment. After that he escaped and picked up his first weapon and killed a Jem’Hadar and run for his life and managed to escape. Two years later he found a group of former Starfleet Marines who had gathered together to put up some resistance; they saw how eager he was to fight and so they taught him all they knew about firing a weapon and using grenades and tactics. He ended up going on a mission with them, where the group he was with was ambushed and somehow he survived. | |||
After the dust had settled an eighteen year old Sharpe dropped his first name and adopted his childhood nickname of Phoenix, as he stood up covered in dirt, dust and blood, little was his own he had quickly realized that he was the only survivor. While he saw death before being this close to it and among it was totally different and the smell too; the team he had gone with was small and still running on adrenalin he buried his dead companions, gathered what supplies he could and fled. A day later he had found himself a dry and relatively warm deserted building with a working replicator, he replicated himself some fresh clothes and supplies, then he located a bathroom and freshened up. Before he got dressed the past two years suddenly hit him and his knees went weak as he crumpled to the floor as shivers and shakes racked his body, what he had done and experienced had finally hit home, this would be the last time he cried, but for now he was all alone in the night with Jem'Hadar patrols everywhere. | |||
As the years wore on he found that his computer skills may hold some merit if he could find him another group to joined and as he aged he honed his hacking skills and combat skills, then the withdrawal of the Dominion back to the Gamma Quadrant saw the arrival of the Cardassians who were less than gentle. By this time he had not long turned Twenty-One years and where he eventually joined another resistance cell and fell in with a large cell that had access to an old little known SFI Shipyard where eventually the cell got hold of a Defiant class ship called the USS Triumphant, the leader of the cell was one of the leaders of the Terran resistance and he got him a spot on this ship where he was given a field commission rank of Ensign and assigned as CoS/Tactical. He quickly picked up on the use of Starfleet ships systems, but since that time now long past Sharpe never forgot or forgave the Dominion for what he had suffered he had to use every bit of his limited emotional control the Vulcan's taught him when he was a kid to keep his anger in check, especially when he recalled the burning Vulcan cities. Despite his position his contact with the ships commander was limited, his past experiences hindered his ability to get to know the crew he served with, his first rebel cell, the ones who taught him on combat and such had befriended him and their loss in the ambush had made him reluctant to make new friends for fear he would lose them too. | |||
