Name: William Samuel Randall
Age: 26
Height: 6'4
Hair: Blond
Eyes: Blue
Skin: Light skinned complexion, easilly embarrassed,
which turns his light face red.
Rank: Lieutenant Commander
Position : COO
Education: Graduated from the Starfleet Academy annex
in Paris with honors in astrophysics and
exo-engineering.
History: Not much is known about Lt.Cmdr. Randall's past.
It is known that he was born to busy parents on Earth,
and that he never even left the planet until his third
week at the Academy. While at the Academy, he
continually scored remarkeably high in all areas of
engineering, especially warp theory. He also took
several classes in advanced weapons research and
design, with more than adequate results. His marriage
to fellow cadet Karen Daniels is now common knowledge.
Upon graduation they were assigned to the U.S.S.
Steamrunner, he as a member of the engineering staff,
and she as assistant ship's counsellor.
Their split occurred about a year later, when she was
offered a post on the Yagasaki as Ship's Counsellor.
Randall selfishly opposed the transfer, and she left
him to further her career. Within a month, the
Yagasaki had been destroyed, and her crew captured.
Randall was devastated, and requested a transfer to a
non-ship based assignment. He was re-assigned to the
Daystrom Institute on Galor IV, and worked closely
with Admiral Haftel, to develop the advanced Quantum
Torpedo, mark VIII. After serving for 2 years at
Galor IV, with emphasis on weapons and propulsion, he
once again felt the yearning to return to space. He
requested (and received) a transfer to the U.S.S.
Avalon as Assistant Engineering Officer. While
serving on board the Avalon, he was re-united with his
former wife, Karen Daniels. Their reunion was to be
short lived, however, as she was revealed to be a
traitor working with Dal Tralexa to destabilize the
Bajoran-Federation alliance. She was killed while
attempting to do so.
Randall has never been extremely good with people,
preferring to work on engines and weapons instead.
But already on board the Avalon, he has managed to
make some friends, such as Lt.Cmdr Will Hunter, and his
superior, Lt.Cmdr K'lara McNamara. His continued ability
to socialize with the crew should improve his inherent
worth as an officer. Due to Lt.Cmdr Hunter's preference
of being called Will, and his longer tenure on board
the Avalon, Lt.Cmdr Randall has since elected to be called
by his middle name, Sam, to avoid confusion.
