| Personal History | Timothy was born in the year 2332 on a farm in Dundee, Scotland, United Kingdom, Earth. He was the son of a Baker father and his mother was an apothecary, healing people with natural medicine. Timothy’s Dad wanted him to take over the farm and bakery, but something about the stars called to him. He has an older brother that is two years older than him. When Tim was five years old his mother gave birth to his younger brother Glenn. The fact that Paul Rice had realized that none of his children wanted to be a farmer led him to make a change. He sold the farm and opened a bakery. Growing up with two siblings Timothy, and his brothers had your typical rivalry. He excelled at things technical rebuilding machines and figuring out not just how they work, but why they work. Like his older brother, his younger brother however, excelled at languages. He simply had a knack for picking them up and memorizing them. Timothy got into trouble fairly often. First with his parents as he took apart the home electronics to figure out how they worked. Then later at school when he would get into fights with other children. They would call him names and tease him for his bookish ways and he would not take it. He quickly became known as a hothead. His parents were called to his school on more than one occasion for a fight that he got into or because he took something apart that he was not supposed to. He made a few close friends and cherished the few that he had. Very often counting them among his family. His reputation with his friends was that if you messed with any one of them you messed with Timothy. Timothy's largest aptitude seemed to be not so much with how things functioned but it was more why they functioned. How things operated, was what came easy to him. It was at this time that he realized two things. One he would join Starfleet, what better place would there be to learn how things work, and keep them working. This aptitude cemented Timothy’s path into what would later become Starfleet. The other thing that he realized as he grew up was that this aptitude for knowing how things worked also extended to situations. He was quickly able to develop his deductive reasoning skills and found that he rather liked figuring out why people did things. Timothy’s general schooling went by basically uneventful. He experienced all that a normal boy experienced, the same trials and tribulations. He graduated High School as the salutatorian. His girlfriend at the time Emma was the valedictorian. His grades earned him a spot at John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Before Tim would take to the stars he would learn about the law and psychology. His years at the college would be simple academically, but would reveal a lot about the man he was to become. Tim would graduate the College with a Bachelor's of Arts in Criminology and a Minor in Human Psychology. He would then go on to complete two more years and earn a Master's Degree in Law. His mother wanted him to become a lawyer, however, the stars still beckoned to Tim so he joined Starfleet. The next four years saw Timothy training at the Academy. Due to his college degree the fleet decided to have him trained as an internal affairs officer, and a security officer. For Timothy this was the best of both worlds he was going to be able to enforce the law which he loved all the while going to space. Rice did not find the training to be difficult and managed to graduate at the top of his class. Upon Graduation he was assigned to the USS Triton as Security Officer with the rank of Ensign. While aboard the the Triton Timothy developed his penchant for poker games. It was the weekly game that he ran that allowed him to make friends on the ship. The sound of his voice and the cadence of his speech made it difficult at times for him to make friends. In 2364 Timothy was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. The promotion came as a decoration for meritorious service. It was at this time that he was reassigned as a member of the Security Detail attached to the Vulcan embassy on Earth. Timothy found the Vulcans to be likeable, which was distinct difference than most other humans. He found their logical path to be in sync with his deductive reasoning. It was his liking of the Vulcans that allowed him to excel there he is assigned to the security detail for the Vulcan Ambassador himself. In early 2365 Timothy threw himself on an explosive device which allowed the Ambassador to escape harm. He received a bionic leg, a promotion to the rank of Full Lieutenant and a transfer. He was sent to serve as the Chief Security Officer aboard the USS Lilly's Eye. Timothy did not want this transfer however, serving as Chief would further his career. He would later state that leaving the Vulcans was perhaps his greatest regret. Timothy's time on the Lilly's Eye helped shape him into the commanding officer he would become. Here he learned how to temper his deductions, and how to be forgiving, less rigid even. In 2369 the Lilly's Eye is requested to go to the Taurean Sector to investigate the disappearance of another one of Earth's ships. It was Timothy who was able to not only find the ship, but ascertain that the ship's commander had gone into hiding on purpose. A year later Timothy would be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander and transferred again, this time back to Earth to serve as a Deputy Inspector in Starfleet's Internal Affairs Department. The winter of 2375 was an eventful one for Tim, and one that passed in a blur. First a series of serial killings broke out all over the planet. Timothy followed the path of blood until he found a man who had been abused by his family and became disturbed. He was able to see the man brought to justice. Immediately after he was promoted to the rank of Commander and given the position of Executive Officer aboard the USS New Zealand. The Captain of the New Zealand was a ragged man, one who had been serving in the fleet for some time. While Tim did not want to learn the older man's demeanor, he would benefit from the advice and counsel. This Captain is one in a long line that would groom Tim to become the officer that he is. A short two years later the Starfleet finds themselves at a loss for Captains so to honor his distinguished service Timothy is given his own ship the USS Yenolen. Eight years into his command Timothy would experience the defining moment of his career to date. He would assist in the rescue of victims of the Synth Attack on Mars. He and his crew would go on to assist in shutting down the Synths responsible. After the rescue operations the fleet saw the potential in Tim Rice and promoted him to the rank of Commodore. They allowed him to retain command of the Yenolen. However, his duties doubled. Nine more years passed while he sat in the center seat of the Yenolen. In 2397 the expansion of operations within the Cardassian Sector warranted a sector commander placed there. Starfleet tapped Timothy Rice for that position. He is promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral and assigned to command fleet operations within the Cardassian sector from Empok Nor. |
