Roberts, Christopher

Christopher Tobin Roberts has been many things over the course of his short life. He dropped out of high school soon as he turned 18, flushed out of flight school, and then served aboard a Cardassian freighter. He married at the age of 19 to Kayla Roselyn and had one son with her. Two years later, she divorced him and took their son to live in London on Earth. After the freighter he was serving on was attacked by a Borg cube and Roberts left the only survivor he returned to Earth to recover and at the age of 21 he entered into Starfleet. He now serves on the USS Valley Forge as a helmsman.

Pre-Starfleet History
Roberts has a long and complicated history leading up to the present day. At the age of 16 Roberts dropped out of High School and joined a Cardassian Freighter crew as a pilot. He was a brilliant helmsman and worked intermittently on the Freighter for the next 5 years.

When he was not serving aboard the ship he was on Earth fostering a relationship with a woman named Kayla. When Roberts was 19, the two married and had one child together. Unfortunately, because Roberts spent more time away from Earth than on it with Kayla the two separated a year after their son's birth.

When Roberts was 21 and still recovering from the separation with Kayla he and the crew of his ship were delivering goods to a Cardassian world along the DMZ when a Borg cube on its way to Earth attacked it. The battle was short and the rest of the crew had been killed by the onslaught of the cube, but Roberts had a trick up his sleeve, the ship's warp core. Roberts ejected the core right at the cube and detonated it. The explosion resulting from the core was enough to destroy the cube, but Roberts had been seriously injured in the battle and required surgery when he was finally rescued by a Starfleet vessel.
