Personal History | Born in Texas, Alexander Stroud grew up in a household steeped in Starfleet traditions thanks to his father’s engineering career. The loss of his mother when he was a teenager hardened him, pushing him into a path of discipline and service. At 18, he entered the Starfleet Marine Corps Academy, excelling in both combat training and strategy. He built his reputation through frontier defense operations and anti-piracy campaigns, where he was recognized for his leadership and reliability. By his early thirties, he was one of the youngest Majors in the Corps, often called on for difficult assignments. Though he initially considered dignitary protection beneath him, his unwavering professionalism made him the perfect choice. His current duty — as head of security for Princess Kaitaama Lothar 50th — will prove more life-changing than he could have anticipated. |
