Captain Theo Michelangelo Whittaker is a {{age|2364|10|18}}-year old Consultant for the Starfleet Corps of Engineers. He is presently  assigned to the Federation starship [[USS Gorkon]] to assess the vessel’s suitability for a Warp XV engine.
 
Previously, he served as the Commanding Officer of the starships [[USS Blackwell]] and [[USS Columbia]]. He is also an instructor and examiner at the Starfleet Academy satellite campus aboard [[StarBase 118]].

The only child of Josiah and Madeline Whittaker, Theo was born on October 18th 2364 at the T'Pol's Landing University Hospital. His late father was a professor of English Literature at the university and his mother is a Starfleet officer, currently serving as Commanding Officer of the ''USS Orb of Prophecy & Change''. Theo's decision to follow his mother in Starfleet led to an acrimonious rift with his father who had hoped he would follow him into a life of academic study. This rift was, unfortunately, not mended by the time that his father passed away in November 2389.

Theo's early days as the latest Captain of the ''Columbia'' were unfortunately marked with a series of arguments with Professor [[Olivia Sellards]], the Director of Research at the Federation science station [[Dehner Base]] on [[Delta Vega I]]. Sellards resented Starfleet's presence in the region and the defensive emplacements they had insisted be installed to protect the base. She made several unsuccessful attempts to convince Theo into advocating their removal. Every time he refused and every time it ended acrimoniously. After one argument, Theo takes the [[USS Kumari]], the Captain's Yacht on a test flight and crashes on a planet where he was quickly captured by [[Human Augments]] who had somehow ended on the planet. Following this he became embroiled in the politics of Dehner Base when it transpired that Professor Sellards was hiding evidence of an important archeological discovery on Delta Vega II: ancient Tkon artefacts. The two clashed several times before he ordered Columbia into a nebula in pursuit of raiders that had stolen the artefacts. This was a success and it led to Theo and Sellards calling a truce. He also agreed to allow [[Jev crim Glev]], Dehner Base's head of archeology to work onboard Columbia full time. Theo then established first contact with the Imperial [[Losarian]] Commonwealth and agreed to an officer exchange program, which has led to friendly relations between the Federation and the Commonwealth. He once again encountered Tkon technology on an abandoned world and saved the Ma'rithh Kenn people from extinction within an advanced computer network of Tkon origin. Most recently, he encountered the [[Shanshuri]] after being duped into believing that five members of his senior staff were killed in the of duty. He and the remaining crew uncovered evidence of the Shanshuri's duplicity also unearthed evidence of a powerful new foe within the [[Sagittarius Reach]] who occupy a different phase variance.

===Reassignment to the Corps of Engineers and the [[USS Gorkon]]===


Columbia’s mission was prematurely cancelled after Starfleet Command grew concerned about the ship’s presence altering the balance of power in the region. Recalled to the Federation, the ship was decommissioned once again. Theo was reassigned to oversee new starship construction techniques at Utopia Plantia- an assignment that he resented as he felt he was being sidelined. When he announced that he was considering retiring in protest at what he felt was unjust treatment, he was seconded to the Starfleet Corps of Engineers and assigned to the USS Gorkon to assess its suitability for the new Warp XV engine. An encounter with his former helmsman [[Jona ch’Ranni]] helped to assuage some of the guilt he felt in regards to Columbia’s decommissioning.
