Personal History Raised on New Berlin, Luna, by his aunt and uncle following the loss of his mother,a Federation Ground Forces trooper killed during the Dominion Warl, Private Voss grew up venerating her memory. His childhood was marked by a quiet, academic nature, devoted to studying Federation history and the causes behind recent conflicts.

His enlistment was unexpected among acquaintances but to Voss, a natural step towards understanding and honouring his mother’s service. His performance in basic training was marginal, with instructors citing a lack of combat instinct, yet recognising his discipline, technical proficiency, and teamwork focus. Assigned to communications to limit frontline exposure, Voss remains aware that no deployment offers absolute safety.

Currently stationed aboard the USS Guinevere. Despite personal fears of failure, he remains resolute in his dedication to the Federation’s cause and to quietly proving his worth to the unit.
