Personality & Traits
General Overview
Patrick is very sarcastic, but takes his job seriously. He loves to smile, loves to joke, but has a huge temper when he is set off. Although it is hard to make him mad, when he does get that way, he is very aggressive and very assertive. If you are joking with him, he'll take his punches like the rest, but if you start getting too serious with him, another side of him tends to pop out. His growing up in the gangs of the Boston Ghetto have taught him to do what he needs to. Before joining the Marine, then starfleet, he was not given a sheltered or privileged life, and lived mostly on the streets. This makes him live every day that he can as potentially his last, and can be very humble about it.

History
Growing Up
Patrick did not have an easy life as some, or even most. He was not given the privilege of a family. He was born on the streets of Boston and found on the streets of Boston as a child. He never got to meet his family. Instead, a group of Street thugs found him and started to raise him. Growing up, he learned how to take care of himself and survive without any help. When he was 5, he became quickly adept at picking pockets, and started making money that way. When he hit 10, the crew he was running with got arrest in a Heist gone wrong. He was alone again.

From then until he was 15, he spent his time on the streets, scrounging up as much money as he could to survive. In this time he was in and out of boys homes due to getting caught stealing peoples money. When he was 15, he picked the pocket of a Gang Boss who caught him. The Boss took pity on Patrick and decided to give him a position in helping with the organization. Patrick took it, knowing that he had no where else to go. During this time he did things from stealing, to beating someone up for looking at The Boss wrong. When he was 17, he got into a fight with the son of a Star Fleet Marine. Patrick made quick work of the marine's boy, but was nabbed by the Marine himself. Instead of turning Patrick in to the Security forces, he trained Patrick how to be a Marine, and a better human being. It was here where he learned his humility.

Boot Camp
At age 18, Patrick joined the Marines. During boot camp, he had some issues getting along with most people with the exception of a Romulan/Human Half Breed by the name of Rohran. The Hybrid turned out to be the best friend he had ever really gotten, and the closest to a brother he ever had.

During a training exercise, something got Shark’s blood pumping and pissed him off greatly. It took six (6) men to hold him down, two (2) of them still ending up in the infirmary for several broken bones. It also took a heavy does of tranquilizers to sedate him. The problem was never figured out but Rohran worked with Shark all through the rest of his boot to keep whatever the urge was.

Shark graduated boot with honors and was given the rank of Corporal and sent to Marine Intel as a sniper.

Star Fleet Marine Intelligence

**Posting One**
Shark’s first assignment for the Intel department was . During this stationing, he was paired up with his old buddy from Boot, Rohran, he turned out to be his Spotter. During this post, he had six (6) confirmed kills.

Also during this post Shark made an enemy. A young Corporal who thought he was a little too good for his own kind, or so says Shark. During mess one night, Shark and the corporal had words that turned out to be a full our fist brawl. Shark put the Corporal in the infirmary and in traction for three months. Shark was given a disciplinary board and a warning.

After the Corporal got out of traction, he went after Shark again, this time with two (2) other men. All three men were put down again, this time the corporal was almost killed during the attack. Shark was brought up on another disciplinary board and this time demoted to Lance Corporal. He was quickly relocated to .

**Posting Two**
During his posting on , Shark continued his sniping with Rohran as his spotter and ended up with eight (8) confirmed kills. There were no other incidents with battery.

In the middle of his posting, Rohran’s newly born baby girl was taken by the Romulan Tal’Shiar as a sign to all “Traitors of the Empire.” Shark took time off, drugged Rohran and stuck him in a shuttle and headed for Romulan Space. After four days on Romulus, Shark and Rohran broke out his daughter from the Tal’Shiar and got out of there. Although they undetected, the Tal’Shiar only gave warning to the two men saying if they ever returned, they would be killed on sight.

Shark retired after his last mission due to unknown circumstances relating from the mission. The logs were deleted from the Intel Database and the hard copies Sealed.

After several months of sitting on the sidelines, Shark decided to join the Fleet to get back into the action.

Academy
Shark decided to try for a change of pace in the Fleet as he decided to major in Operations with a minor in Security details to keep things interesting. During his time in the Academy, he kept in contact with Rohran and had four years without incident.

Shark graduated the academy with honors and a Bachelors in Operations and minor in Security. He was given the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade and sent to the USS Rapier with his first post as Chief of Operations.

USS Rapier
Shark spent a small run on the USS Rapier before it was eventually mothballed and turned into the USS Calypso.

USS Calypso
Upon moving to the USS Calypso, Shark was given the rank of Lieutenant, transfered to Chief of Security and also given position as the Second (2) XO. Once the Calypso burned up on it's first and last mission, Shark decided it was time to go back to the one thing he loved the most, the Marines. General Arlovski granted his requst, gave him a Marine rank, placed him back as a Sniper, and shipped him off.
