Jason Spencer

Jason was born on the USS Arizona (NCC – 3935 B) on Nov 1, 2364. Rear Admiral John Spencer, Captain at the time of Jason’s birth, and Captain Amanda Spencer, Commander at the time of birth, had finally produced a child after years of trying. For Jason’s parents this was a dream come true because they had been told that natural conception was nearly impossible. After a very lengthy and methodical examination of Jason, he was given a clean bill of health. Jason lived on Starship to Starship for the first 9 years of his life until his father was promoted to Commodore and to the position of Vice Commandant of Starfleet Academy. Jason’s mother was promoted to Captain and was named Department Head for the School of Biomedical Sciences. Jason’s parents were transferred to Earth where Jason began school at St. Mary’s Academy, a prestigious private school.

Jason always knew that he would end up in Starfleet, from the time he was a little boy he looked out into the expanse of space and dreamed. Jason dreamed of what else was out there and how could we make it to those undiscovered, uncharted parts of the universe. Jason received the letter came from Starfleet Command notifying Jason of his acceptance to the Academy a few weeks before graduation. Jason graduated top of his graduating class and was showing interest in Quantum theory and warp field design.

Jason began the Academy the following fall. While unpacking Jason found a letter in his bag, it was from his parents, Dear Jason, we are very proud of you. We know that you have grown up to be a perfect Starfleet Officer and here is a little memento to help you along the way. In the letter was Jason’s father’s Crimson Squad Award (awarded to the Student who had the best scores in command potential). Jason had always stared into the case where this award sat and wished he could touch it and now he had it in his hands. Jason kept his father’s award in a locked case above his bed the entire time at the academy.

Jason set off to follow in his father’s footsteps and began to excel in his classes as well as in his extracurricular activities. Jason wrote several papers on how starships were wasting power and how to streamline warp cores to make them smaller and to make the produce more power, more efficiently. Jason was published several times in the Starfleet Engineering Journal as well as several civilian papers. Jason graduated the Academy as Valedictorian of his class; although he did not receive the Jean-Luc Picard Award he did receive the Falcon award (Awarded to the Student with the highest engineering potential). His father had the honor of awarding his son with this award as well as being the noted speaker of the evening.

After graduating Jason received his first assignment, and the story begins….
