Personal History		Liam Pope would be born in Douglas, on the isle of Man on the planet Miri. The names of his parents would be forgotten to time the only thing sticking would be his name. “Liam Pope”. He would be enrolled into the eugenics program at the age of 6. Throughout the centuries though, Liam was the weird kid who like to organise and count things. When the Federation arrived and took the planet over, Liam was very interested in these people, some liked like him, some blue. They told him about Starfleet and with years through the Federation education system, he wanted to be the first Onlie in Starfleet. Liam was accepted into Starfleet though they had doubts about a literal child but he proved them by getting the top grades in his class, making friends along the way though never getting invited to adult parties which always gave him much disappointment Liam served as the Assistant Head of People Logistics. A fancy way of saying deputy seat organiser of the military press. It was a pretty basic and boring office role. In his free time he would go for hikes, keeping himself physically active but the role got tiresome really quick but he stuck by it until he was burnt out. The kid officer applied for the stars, the USS Andoria, it was a Miranda class and he worked in the cargo bays as a logistics officer. It was stock checking, making sure everything was there and counted. He made friends with crewmen, when you're out in space you can't keep civ friends as your posting moves now. He was transferred to Outpost K-3, thankfully the Andoria was unloading her crew there but thankfully most of his friends were transferred aboard the station too, but he had a bigger responsibly as a deputy of the Operations department, at least he didn’t have to count everyday. The USS Andoria had returned a few year later heavily destroyed with most of her crew injured or dead after a run in with a pirate fleet. Once the ship was repaired, Liam was offered the COO role by the new Captain who was the COO he served under. Was he ready after 4 years? Heck yeah, he was a fast learner and knew the ropes. The Andoria was a great posting but Starfleet moved Liam on, he assumed his duties as 2XO aboard the Invictia; it was a huge step up, and he took the role with pride. It was hard for a new ship to accept he was a kid but once they saw him for who he was, there were no issues. The Invictia was taking part in an anti-piracy task force. After a couple of months with the task force the Invictia responded to a cruise ship being boarded by pirates... It was a surprise attack, the cruise ship was the pirate ship, and they boarded the Invictia... The old Constitution class was taken over, but thankfully, another member of the task force responded, and Liam took acting command until the XO or CO could be found... They were never found and presumed missing. Liam was granted command of the Invictia on a temporary basis. But after he presented a new plan, employing a surprise attack on their fleets and seizing their capital world, he was granted permanent command and earned a reputation for as a skilled surprise flanker. Then, the pirates were no more. And Starfleet wanted to continue putting his skills to use, disbanding the Invitica and placing her in the reserve fleet, Liam took command from the retiring Captain on Starbase 90. The region had a history of corporate trafficking people. Liam exposed the corporations, arrested the managers and saved an estimated 8 million people from their clutches. Starfleet came Liam the USS Hornet. He'd locate the remainder of the corp management that fled before or during the trial, which only took 2 ½ years. Liam's tenure had been serving as a diplomat to prospective federation members. But Liam began to feel exhausted after the 11 years, the start of his meltdowns. Thankfully, he was transferred to the USS Medusa to make formal contact with the Bajoran government. This is where he also met the Cardissan Union for the first time. Looking back, he wished he could have done more to avert what would happen years on. He reported back on the Union, a militaristic society trying to sway them, Starfleet agreed with Liam's suggestion of posting the Medusa under his command to the area, trying to sway them to the UFP. Starfleet although agreed with Liam, but they felt they should post someone who was a fanatic eglatiroan. The choice made Liam angry, but he didn't speak up and was a good little soldier, keeping his mouth shut. Another regret he wishes he could change. He assumed command of DS5, near Bajor. He was posted there to solve the "Bermuda triangle" effect in the area affecting various ships. Turned out to be a Space Snail eating ships and taking naps in subspace. Bajor was ruled by a puppet government under the Cardassian Union. The USS England was a Cardiff-class, and Liam also commanded the task force patrolling the space around Bajoran. He came into daily contact with various Guls, captains of Cardissan Warships, trying to probe or scout UFP space... Liam wouldn't allow them anywhere near UFP. With a change in UFP government, Liam was moved on in favour of a more diplomatic CO once more. He was assigned to the Woodrow Wilson, where he performed anti-piracy patrols. By now, he was strongly considering quitting Starfleet. But decided against it; he outlived everyone he knew on Earth and hadn't been to his homeworld in quite some time. Woodrow Wilson was dismantled after an engineering fault in the warp core. Liam was granted another command, Starbase 73, a little way away from the UFP-Klingon border. The Klingons would wreak havoc on the area, and Liam's job was to simply rein them in. Which he achieved, Starfleet wanted the same for another area along the border and he was sent to SB 91 to do the same. Taking command of Amerigo Vespucci was a blessing. 5 years working with Klingons was enough to drive someone insane with all the fighting they did. This was new for him; he was granted a cruiser to explore a region of space in the Alpha Quadrant, where he made first contact with many nations. With piracy in other areas of the galaxy getting out of hand, Liam was transferred to the Iron Lady. To put an end to it. Which he managed to achieve and was moved on more again this time, back to the border where he got to confront the Cardissan Union once more.
