Personal History | Liam was born in 2360 to Finn and Erin O’Riley just outside Dublin, Ireland on planet Earth. Finn, his father, owned a shuttle repair shop while Erin, his mother, taught economics at a secondary school. At the tender age of three his parents welcomed another baby into the family who they named James after Finn’s grandfather. Liam and James would become best friends as well as being brothers. Liam had the usual primary school education, but not showing much interest in anything and was content with just getting by in his life; this concerned his father greatly. By the time Liam reached his twelfth year Finn decided to take his oldest son to work and introduce him to a real life job. It wasn’t very long at all that Finn noticed Liam’s enthusiasm with his business; but mainly how the inner workings of a shuttle worked to produce a space worthy vehicle. When Liam reached his mid teens he would go with his father to work and started learning the ins and outs of shuttle repair when he wasn’t in school; also his grades went from average to way above average as he seemed to actually care about his grades now. In his seventeenth year, Liam could dismantle any system on a shuttle, fix the problem, and reassemble it having it operate at near or above specifications which pleased his father greatly. At eighteen he informed his parents he wanted to enroll at the Star Fleet Academy and study engineering. While his father was pleased, he was disappointed that Liam would not be taking over the family business; a void that his younger brother James would fill in a few years. |
