'''Captain Theo Michaelangelo Whittaker''' is the {{age| | '''Captain Theo Michaelangelo Whittaker''' is the {{age|2364|10|18}} year old Commanding Officer of the [[USS Columbia]] one of the vessels attached to the [[Andaris Task Force]]. Previously, he was the Commanding Officer of the [[USS Blackwell|U.S.S. Blackwell]] and Executive Officer of [[StarBase 118 Ops|StarBase 118 Operations]]. Prior to his move to the command division, he was the Chief Engineer of the Columbia under Captain [[Ben Livingston]] and subsequently Commander [[Brek]]. He has also served as an instructor and examiner for [[Starfleet Academy]] at the satellite campus aboard [[StarBase 118]]. | ||
Theo was born and raised on Archer IV largely by hs father - a professor of ancient Terran literature at The University of Tucker's Landing- who intended for his son to follow in the footsteps of his family and enter a life of academia, as all the male members of the Whittaker family had done for centuries. This expectation caused a great deal of friction between Theo and his father- with Theo wanting to find his own path in life. Eventually, when Theo was 16 he ultimately decided that he wanted to join Starfleet to follow in his mother's footsteps (who presently serves as the commanding officer of the ''U.S.S. Orb of Prophecy & Change'') who he is closer to, despite the vast distances often involved. Theo failed his academy exam twice before being accepted on his third attempt. The defiance of his father's led to an estrangement between father and son that was not resolved at the time of his father's death, when Theo was a second year engineering cadet. This often fraught and complex relationship has had long last psychological repurcussions for Theo, namely self-doubt and anxiety. | Theo was born and raised on Archer IV largely by hs father - a professor of ancient Terran literature at The University of Tucker's Landing- who intended for his son to follow in the footsteps of his family and enter a life of academia, as all the male members of the Whittaker family had done for centuries.
