Personal Information

Family

Richard Marsh was born to Justin and Kristen Marsh in 2466 in Queensland, Australia. His father, Justin is a Professor of Cognitive Science at Queensland University in Australia and his mother is a Medical Doctor at a local hospital. His parents divorced when he was only sis years old because his father cheated on his mother with her best friend and had planned to run away together. He can vividly recall his sister trying to break up the arguments between their father and mother like it happened yesterday. His father remarried and divorced a second time when Richard was eighteen due to his father being an alcoholic and cheating on his second wife. His father was quite controlling and would tell Richard horrible things about his mother as a teenager that were not true. One day he and his sister just had enough and severed their relationship as a whole by ceasing all communication with him. His father did not appear to care and never reached out to them to reconcile. Richard is still close with his mother and step-father, but can still see dysfunction in their marriage and with his grandparents marriages. Their misery is not something he wants in his own life. These experiences growing up have led him to be more determined to work hard, be honest, and find the right woman rather than right-now woman.

He also placed first in the planetary Chess competition, showing an aptitude for out of the box thinking and supreme tactical skill.

During Academy: Star Fleet Operations Tactical division. Star Fleet Command Bridge Crew division, Ship Command Division

---

Medical:

Clean bill of health. Typical injuries of a tactical officer in training. Nothing of concern or prolonged problems. Medical records show he has been hit by a phaser once or twice and taken his fair share of hits in a fight. No lasting damage.

Possible allergy to Penicillin. Older sister is allergic and so Richard has never been prescribed the medication.
