History

Personal History

Shiloh was born to two scientists aboard Starbase 173, which was stuck between Romulan and Federation neutral space. His father, a known and respected gravitronics scientist for the federation, met his mother, a half-romulan half-human. She was a PhD student on the same starbase. When they met, initially, they hated each other. Kivosa thought the good Doctor to be condescending. As time went on, they start to kindle a relationship. Eventually, Kivosa became pregnant with Shiloh. Around the 30 week mark into the pregnancy, something went completely wrong. She started bleeding and eventually started seizing. While they knew that Kivosa was in the stages of eclampsia, she was too far into it, so they did what they could to save the boy, Shiloh. The first several years of Shiloh’s life were not easy. Already having partial Romulan blood and features, but his father became very distant, and mostly absent. When Shiloh was 9, his father came back to their residence, completely inebriated. This was the night that would change his outlook, and life, for good. His father started getting angry, which led to him hitting Shiloh. Eventually, it got so bad that Jerrod threw a bottle of bourbon at Shiloh, hitting him in the face and shattering. It caused a very deep cut, and the scar he still wears to this day. When Shiloh woke up a few days later in the medical bay, he was alone. Jerrod had eventually given himself a fatal cocktail of medicine, effectively ending his life. Shiloh was eventually taken to Earth, a place he had never been. Most of his mother’s family was on Romulus, and refused to take the boy, and his father’s family, so ashamed of what happened, refused to even speak to Shiloh. This put Shiloh in a touch spot, and eventually, he ended up in the foster care system. While the family he ended up with in Boston were great people and a great family, he could never shake his own demons. Ending up in the underground music scene, he was quickly enticed with alcohol, enjoying how it would numb his brain. Shiloh had some legal issues and a lot of run-ins with security. Eventually, when he was of age, he attempted to join Star Fleet. He was initially denied his application, however, was given an opportunity with the Intelligence community on his third application. While he had some issues and his own demons, there was something about the boy. He was highly intelligent, specifically when it came to computer systems. It appeared as though he had this unique talent for hacking systems. He was also adept at social engineering due his ability to fake a good smile. This didn’t last though. As soon as he graduated from Star Fleet academy, he was investigated for hacking the grading systems, giving some friends higher grades. He was eventually acquitted of the crime, but this put a black cloud over his head, which got him removed from the intel community before he ever truly got the chance to do anything with it. Due to these indiscretions, he was given an opportunity to stay, but was moved to the Operations department. His first posting was as a quartermaster. While nothing truly special happened, he was able to keep his nose clean. Eventually he was moved up to logistics when he promoted to LTJG. This is where his troubles started again. It was found that, again, Shiloh had used his hacking abilities to requisition more supplies that should have gone elsewhere first. While his Captain understood why, it was still against the regulations, and not his first offense. This led to a Courts Martial, which would remove Shiloh from Starfleet. After losing his commission from Starfleet altogether, Shiloh swore he’d never drink excessively again. He tried to completely swear off alcohol, but he enjoyed the taste and the burn too much. So, he altered himself to just drink less and keep himself from being that lush ever again. Eventually, Shiloh would just hop from ship to ship, going from planet or starbase to the next place. He’s been attempting to find somewhere he can go that would give him a higher purpose for himself, to keep himself from spiraling again.
