Personal History

Mike Weller was born on Earth 34 years ago. He cannot remember much of his father. His mother paid for a good preliminary education and throughout this education process, "Mother" pushed him to become a lawyer. Following graduation from a well known public school, Weller attended Oxford University, obtaining a first in Commercial Law.

Following graduation from Oxford, Mike joined a firm of lawyers who specialised in the interplanetary commercial field. Within two years he became an Associate and by the time he was nearing thirty, Mike was offered a partnership. He had a glowing career ahead of him.

However, Mike had an obsession with space exploration generally, and Starfleet in particular. Unknown to his mother, since the age of ten he had tried to trace his father's career. When aged seventeen, he managed to gain access to low security grade personnel records. He establsihed the known circumstances of his father's death, which left many unanswered questions. Throughout university, Mike tried time and again to contact crewmembers on his father's last ship, without success. All seem to have been killed, or missing in action.

Whilst very good at law, frankly it bored him to death. As thirty approached, Mike found himself seriously reconsidering his options, and whether to accept the partnership offer. On his thirtieth birthday, he enrolled with Starfleet for a fast track command course, aimed at promising cadets with excellent educational achievements and a burning desire to follow a command career. This resulted in an enormous row with "Mother", and Mike was told to never darken her doors again. On enquiry, she point blank refused to talk about his father. Her last words were that Starfleet had killed her husband, and she would not stand by and let it kill her only child. Notwithstanding "Mother's" pleas and threats, Mike went ahead with the enrollment.

Professional History

Mike did not particularly like his training at the academy. He was older than most cadets, and found some of their behaviour childish. Having been used to virtual partnership status at a large firm of lawyers, being treated as an equal with a bunch of kids was difficult. He found himself resenting some of the training instructors who were actually younger than he was. However, two instructors particularly recognised his potential and after only two years of the three year course, he was pushed towards the examination based modules which he passed with outstanding results. Following graduation, he was assigned to the USS Isannah under the command of Captain Callen.
