Personal History
Childhood and adolescence
Raised in San Francisco, Moses excelled at both sports and drawing the ire of the local officials. His immediate friends all hailed from the North Beach area where he spent his formative years. His father, being in Intelligence, was frequently gone, yet yielded enough power to extract Mike from several scrapes early on.
His mother, taken hostage with several others, as an attempt to deal with an Intelligence operation gone awry, lost her life when Moses was 15. This caused a rift between Moses and his father, which eventually was resolved as the younger Moses was finishing his high school studies.
2364-2368 - Starfleet Academy
At the Academy he was consumed with his studies...and smart women. He somehow managed to balance his efforts and do exceptionally well. He proved adept at acquiring languages and had a proclivity for anything having to do with security systems, tactical operations, weaponry and exigent operations. Final exams found him doing quite well, however, his limited interviews with Intelligence officials fared poorly because of his personal affairs. It was decided that he would fare best given some structure on the more aggressive vessels in the fleet.
Career
2368-71 [USS Kodiak] 2371-72 [Maquis prison camp]
2372-73 [Starfleet Headquarters]
2373-88 [USS Leeds]
Assigned to a patrol vehicle near the Wormhole, Moses and his mates conducted a number of runs to the Gamma Quadrant. His linguistic skills were invaluable. Moses’ vessel spent a great deal of time at DS9. It was during this time he married Rebecca-he was divorced in short order. On assignment, Moses and several others of an Away Team, were taken prisoner by a Maquis raiding party. The group spent one year in the custody of the Maquis, being moved from encampment to encampment.
Once freed from captivity, Moses and the others were assigned to STHQ in San Francisco where they were utilized to supply intelligence on Maquis activities and help with the planning stages of numerous operations to apprehend at-large Maquis cell members. Their work carried them to and from SF to DS9. It was during this time Moses married and then divorced Njal.
Moses was eventually assigned to Security aboard the USS Leeds and saw extensive fighting during the Dominion War. Immediately following the War, he married Dariel-they divorced within two years.
Moses spent the next decade aboard the same vessel. He gained the confidence of his superiors and was included in the majority of Away Team missions. His transfer to the Avalon came after much soul-searching on his part. His desire for the unknown overwhelmed his exploits and stature aboard the Leeds.
Medical Profile
Medical/Psychological Report
Moses is remarkably fit for someone who is overly active, and has seen the
amount of turmoil during the Dominion War. His file, especially from his endeavors during the War, is prolific, but he takes care of himself
and follows a tremendous training regimen.
Doctor Eruyon Alz
Starfleet Medical, San Francisco
Michael ‘Mike’ Moses is grounded and fit for duty. His skills and desire to
serve outweigh any perceived weaknesses in character. He is affable and open. He’s a learned man who is sincerely interested in the safety and welfare of others. He has no compunction in speaking about his wartime activities, his incarceration at the hands of the Maquis, or the relationships with women or off-duty activities. He is forthcoming about his past, including his failed marriages and is not bitter in the least.
He is quite respectful of both women and men alike. He sees these marriage scenarios as ‘fluid involvements’ where neither he, nor his wives were ready for long-term commitments. I do not see these affinities becoming an obstacle to his work life.
I have been in contact with Counsellors that have dealt with Moses in the past and find that he is fit for duty. All evaluations showed that he can be compulsive, but in the long run, pragmatic about his station in life. If handled candidly, Moses responds quite well. In short, because of his candor, abilities and background, I find him suitable for service aboard the Avalon. He will be an asset to our crew.
