From a young age, Theo was fascinated by machinery and how things worked, largely due to the fact that his father was determined not to use any technology unless he absolutely had to. At age thirteen he built his first replicator as part of a high school project and won first place. When Theo was sixteen he announced his intention to apply for Starfleet Academy which his mother agreed to sponsor. As a result, his parents marriage broke down and Theo became depressed, believing that it was entirely his fault. As a result he could not focus properly and he failed his first entrance exam. He took two years to recover before reapplying at age twenty and passing the entrance exam. He took his place at Starfleet academy the following year at age 21, majoring in Starship Engineering with a minor in Starship Operations Management.

'''[[Kam'Jahtae (Andaris Task Force)]]]''': The Blackwell's long journey to Arndall comes to its end and Theo, in his first mission as CO, must deliver aid to the under siege inhabitants. Complicating matters are military fleets from both the Caraadian and Valcarian militaries preventing anyone from beaming down or beaming up. In the interests of keeping the region from becoming a war zone, Theo offers to mediate with both sides, assisted by Fleet Captain [[Kalianna Nicholotti]] who has joined the Blackwell as an Ambassador at large. While two shuttles deliver aid to the most needy areas, Theo must contend with the egos of Lieutenant General Asil and his Caraadian counterpart High Prefect Glovely. Neither side is willing to back down and veiled threats are thrown. Then without warning, there are explosions and quakes across the entire planet and it appears a hostile insectoid army is invading! In a race against time, Theo must combat this new threat, get his people off of the surface and unite two warring species. Not to mention deal with the fact that there is an unauthorised civilian Federation medical team on the planet led by a very familiar face!

*'''[[Missing In Action (Columbia)]]''': Newly promoted to Captain, Theo is reassigned to command his beloved [[USS Columbia]] along with the crew of the [[USS Blackwell]]. After two separate confrontations with Professor Olivia Sellards over the defensive emplacements installed during the construction of [[Dehner Base]] leaves him restless and annoyed, Theo- over the initial objects of new first officer Lieutenant Commander [[Jarred Thoran]]- takes his captain's yacht, the [[USS Kumari]] out for a test drive arguing that he has not logged an hour of space flight in an auxiliary vessel for over a year. Several hours after departure, the Kumari crash lands on a M-18138512, a planet in a star system near to the Solerian Rift on the edge of the [[Sagittarius Reach]]. Theo is not that injured by the rough crashing landing, but his security escort is and needs urgent medical attention back aboard the USS Columbia- who have only just begun to search for their missing CO. Shortly after coming to, an unknown human-looking stranger rips the outer doors off of the Kumari and then boards her, knocking Theo out once again. Regaining consciousness in a cave, he discovers he is now under guard and separated from Lieutenant Haneer and Crewman Skalvok and encounters Adlynn Verne, the leader of a group of humans that he comes to realise are Augments descended from the genetic super-soldiers who ruled much of Earth during the Eugenics Wars of the 20th century. He repeatedly denies her request for Starfleet technology, even going as far as to lie to her. She refuses his explanation that Starfleet is on a mission of exploration and continues to do even when is backed up by members of a rescue team from the Columbia. He orders [[Luna Walker]] to stand down when she becomes hostile towards Verne and allows Mirra to remain in command given his compromised state. He is eventually rescued during an escape attempt with the away team and promptly collapses with exhaustion in Sickbay.
