Jonathan Ferfalla

Childhood and Early Life
Jonathan was born on the USS Potemkin and lived on the ship until he was ten years old. The family was a mixed family, a Caitain father and a human mother. Life on a ship was a little interesting, for you watched the ship travel through space, see all new sights like Nebulas, stars, and worlds. However one encounter was with Nausicaan pirates where the Potemkin was heavily outgunned from the group of raiders. The ship sent out a distress signal while the crew had to fight. Jonathan had to hide in order to get out of this encounter alive, the unfortunate truth was that his parents had to fight off the boarders. The fight for the Potemkin was a bit of a blood bath until the ships Nagato and the Carolina joined the fight, with their help the Potemkin was rescued. When the dead was counted the crew realized that Jonathan was now orphaned. The Captain of the Potemkin told Andrew that his parents were brave and that their sacrifice will be remembered for all. However, this was when Jonathan adopted a “Not speak until spoken to” attitude. Jonathan just nodded until he was moved to Earth to stay with the Captain’s brother for there was no available family for Jonathan. It was a little rough and Jonathan had his needs met while he was in South Carolina living on a farm. During High School when he was in Starfleet Recruit Officer Training Course is when he started to show that he got his “protector” trait when he saw a group of bullies picking on a kid. Jonathan intervened and started to thrash them around. He managed to make the bullies retreat but not without his own bruises. This was when his nickname was “claws” after the way he fought. After High School, he had enough good marks to get into Starfleet Academy, as an effort to make his parents, wherever they may be, proud of him.

Academy Years
While at Starfleet Academy, Jonathan was still his quiet self, only speaking when the teacher called upon him, but other than that he was quiet until he needed something. He wanted to take the role of what his father had while he was on the Potemkin, a Security officer, and to also defend the weak from those who seek to hurt them. He took the necessary courses and electives he needed to pass the four years of Starfleet Academy until he graduated as an Ensign. When it was time for him to choose his first posting, he chose the U.S.S Providence, not only because it was a famous Galaxy-Class, but because there were open positions that would satisfy what he had learned.
