Personal History | Being the son of career parents it was a difficult time for Casshan to make friends at any stage of his childhood. He was shared between his parents as they had separate assignments as his father, Braka Adams, served in the Marine Corps and his mother, Ashlee Adams, commanded her own starship for pretty much all of Casshan's life. Braka was in special operations and was away for months at a time; Ashlee did however allowed her first officer to take command more often while she mothered Casshan till he was 8 years and childcare could take him. He developed his telempathic senses early and this caused much conflict while at childcare, preschool and only the first year of primary school. Ashlee had arranged for Casshan to have meetings with the Betazoid counselors on her ship so they could teach him how to control his telepathy and perfecting his empathic barriers. At the third year of primary Casshan was a changed boy and no longer a disruption; though he was a little rebellious and wanted friends so would do naughty things to get noticed by his peers. Before long he had two others being unruly with him; his grades however remained above average which did confuse his teachers. Well the ones who had the misfortune of witnessing his mischief. During his fifth year he realised that he was attracted to other boys which scared him and tried to hide it from his buddies-in-crime whom he was attracted to funnily enough. Let's just say that Casshan experimented and enjoyed the pleasures of and lived life to the fullest. Unfortunately when the trio passed primary school at 13, Casshan's mother earned a position amongst the Admiralty and the Kincaid family moved to Earth. Casshan decided to tell his two friends he liked them more then buddies and hoped to see them again sometime in the future. At this stage Casshan began to show an interest in the science of the mind and his mother was all too happy get additional tutors as Casshan went through secondary schooling on Earth. While studying on Earth, Casshan had gotten interested in the ancient Egyptian art and symbolism. Most of it had spiritual meaning and offered protection in a variety of ways, as a result he got several of them tattooed onto his body and occasionally practices the ancient rituals. During the eleventh year Casshan had crushed on several guys and each had eventually succumbed his overtures as he had become more comfortable in his homosexual skin. Upon turning 19 and graduated Casshan joined Starfleet Academy straight after secondary school. His mother sponsored him and he elected the medical branch specializing in Counseling along with doing all the basic courses during his first and second years at the Academy. Casshan formed many friendships and two of them developed deeper, one after the other with a month in between. Both of them enjoyed it but both ended in a mutual decision to as they really wanted no strings attached; this didn't bother Casshan much as the Academy became more demanding during his third year. Now he could add Diplomacy to his list of classes. His fourth year he was just above average in all areas and approached the Diplomatic Corps Instructor if he could do training after graduation. The instructor agreed and many others requested the same. With the course over Casshan now had to find assignments and began his career on the Olympic; an Olympic class medical vessel. During the 4 years on the Olympic Casshan received several tattoos that held spiritual beliefs that he learned from ancient times in Egypt, minus the negative ritualism that they did. |
