Ethan trades in loyalty and says that it’s the only currency you should have. The young helmsman has always been the odd one in his friendship group, was always a misfit but he never let that hold him back. Ethan has always been quiet around people he doesn't trust or people he doesn't get on with, purely because his mother taught him if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it at all.

Ethan doesn't really have time for people who ask the stupidest questions he has no tolerance for people like it, he's very quick to anger sometimes especially if you upset his loved ones or his crew for that matter he’ll fight you to the death if you even think about hurting those he's close to. Ethan is a relatively new commander, but that has come from experience he fought in the four years war against the klingons, that has drastically changed he young man, war changes everyone but with ethan it changed him for better, despite loosing craig in the opening months of the war now the young man is trying to lead a life where he is control of many peoples lives and as a new commander and commanding officer has had its challenges and sometimes he remembers who craig was and I to him because he sees him in every member of his crew and he is furiously holding on to protect them, to save them from the same fate as his brother. |

| Personal History | Ethan was brought up in county Wexford, Northern Ireland. His father was a Starfleet officer and his mother was a florist. Being brought up in Northern Ireland there was a religious struggle as there always had been, Ethan’s family were stark Catholics, so ethan was raised as such. Ethan's father Padraig was a medical officer on board an NX class ship, During the Romulan war Padraig spent many years away from his family. When the war was finally over Padraig returned home a different man than he left.Even from a young age, Ethan was obsessed with compasses anything he could get his hands on, his father taught him how to read maps and use a compass. Ethan would study maps and read the Ordnances, if there was one thing the boy knew it was how to not get lost, Soon though his father became the owner of his mother’s florist shop, together they ran the tiny little shop in the center of Wexford.Ethan wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps, wanting to join Starfleet after he finished his schooling, however unlike his father he wanted to be at the helm of a starship in charge of its navigation and its engines. His brother Craig graduated when Ethan finished school, Craig majored in security but instead of going down the officer route, Craig decided on enlisted. Craig's first assignment was the USS Andromeda, a ship that his father was once the chief medical officer on.Ethan left school and joined college deciding to study A levels in English, Drama, Philosophy, and Media studies. After 3 years in college, he graduated with high marks and decided to join Starfleet academy. The next years ethan started training to not only be a helm officer but decided on officer training as well.Ethan Graduated starfleet academy just before the 4 years war started and was stationed aboard the USS Mushashi, as chief helm officer. He flew the Mushashi all the way through the 4 years war and was then transferred to the USS Hades at the tail end of the war where he attained the rank of LTJG.
