History
Early Life (2370-2386)
Ebenezer Elias Edwards was born to Jennifer and Justin Edwards in 2370 in Denver, Colorado. He quickly became a wunderkind in that he would dissemble anything he could get his hands on, including his crib, his door, his room, his house, and anything else that wasn’t secured. He studied engineering in high school and was granted the chance to study concurrently at the local college. He graduated when he was 16.

In 2390 he meets a girl, Patricia Hollingsworth. He suddenly becomes acutely aware of his lack of social skills and redoubles his efforts to impress Patricia. He ultimately fails and is heartbroken for a week. He soon resolves to learn how to be social and employs books, counselors, and mentors in the Academy program. It is not easy and upon graduation in 2392 he still struggles with the ability to relate to others.
