Personality & Traits
| General Overview | A Dominion War veteran whose war never quite ended. Forsaken from his homeworld he was always an otucast of sorts comapred to other officers upbringings and expectations. Whilst Jack would seem quick to a joke and to seem to not take some situations too seriously those that could look beneathe the facade could see it was often a mask to hide his true thoughts and feelings, and perhaps, intelligence. He is exactly what one would expect for one of his history and resume. Jack possesses the build of a fit man who is no stranger to physical combat and hardships noticeable on site. A man who often appears to be a contradiction to himself and others, he can be quite casual with a definitive swagger and sense of humour in the most chaotic situation yet switch on a dime to cold-hearted calculation even when not warranted. At times that could appear quite bi-polar especially if he's suffering an introspection streak which usually leads him to a stint of depression, which of course he masks with a defective "all good" casual vibe. |

| Personal History | Records here are oddly vague and scattered even for a man born on a non-federation world. Add that he is of a very well known and wealthy family line and he himself had recently held a position within the Driaan Government, it is possible most records of his earlier years were redacted. His parents died when he was young and he was adopted by the (then) newly appointed planetary governer of Driaan V, Reetorg, an Orion. It is no secret that Reetorg's time as leader of Driaan V has been less than desirable for most, whilst the star system continued to financially flourish, morally the system degraded as Reetorg was a figure of some weight within the upper echelons of the Orion Syndicate. It is thought his adoption of the Lashmore children was forced by Reetorg for the political power and wealth the name granted. It is known however that Jack as a young man had been turned into a willing participant in Reetorg's crimes. What caused him to leave Driaan and eventually join Starfleet, however, he has never truly shared with anyone. "Not the best day." With that udner his belt, he was already Sixteen, young to have experienced and done the things he had done. After some months of skippign from port to port, evading Reetorg's bounty hunters upon his escape using fake digital I.D's and the like for a reason Jack kept to himself he one day decided to use his real I.D at a checkpoint on Earth, New York. Security was alerted due to attached crimes to the name, and within a Public Lobby officers found him already on his knee's and hands behind his back awaiting arrest. With no true proof of Jack's crimes only affiliated reports, an officer within Starfleet Security considered what to do with Jack. It was eventually decided that his sentence would be service: Starfleet Academy - under requirement to perform above a certain decided percentage in all his classes in order to continue. Although there have been reports of him leaving campus to party in the city (amongst other activities) Jack had kept his end of the bargain. He fought for Starfleet during the Dominion War, had served aboard a Starship for years thereafter and also had been assigned on occasion to Intelligence operations due to his Syndicate experience and knowledge. That was until a botched Operation within his Home-System, whilst most details of the Operation were classified, it is known most of the team he was with were killed and those who made it out were due to Jack sacrificing himself - counting on Reetorg's pride and need of revenge to focus on him. And hence Jack spent 3 years as a prisoner and forced labour in a Dilithium Mine within the Driaan system. Occasionally tortured and questioned by Reetorg's enforcers for Starfleet Information but he never caved and hence was often just beaten to a pulp then thrown back to mines...until the leader of the failed Intelligence Operation had finally manipulated a deal for his release with the Driaan Government. Jack had spent the past two years living mostly off-the-grid and in an isolation of sorts within farmland Australia. Australia in many ways, being identical to his homeworld in its origins and lifestyles...minus the Syndicated crime. Although Jack was required to attend psychological evaluations and counseling sessions, he kept his time mostly to a small cabin in the bush and occasionally working on nearby agricultural pursuits and organic farms. It was a former Starfleet acquintaince that approached him with an offer, or a mnaipualtion, which pressed Jack back into an organised role on a rapid-responce-vessel, the USS Pandora as Chief of Tactical and Security. |
