Physical Profile: -Luther has a very dense skeletal and muscular structure due to the greater than normal gravity 
of his birth world. The subject is in superb physical condition  and works out on a daily basis. 

-Cellular scans shows a 0.001 temporal deviation due to  subject's exposure to subspace bubbles while serving  aboard the USS Ticonderoga.-Luther’s back and upper torso are covered by a pattern of ritual scarring. The subject is reluctant to comment on these patterns. Investigation has found that they are connected to a monastic Andorian religious order located in the remote areas of the Tavada Mountains of Andoria.-A Psionic dampener with attached explosive device was removed from the subject by the CMO of the USS Ultima when the device proceeded to fail. Subject refused to give any information officially on the origin or purpose of the device.

Languages 
Fluent in Federation Standard, Andorian, and Romulan; 
also has working knowledge of Klingon and Cardassian.

Personality Profile: Luther Fry is a very strong willed and 
at times aggressive individual. Socially he is reclusive in 
nature. He is a dedicated individual that is extremely 
detail oriented in his duties. Not a person to back into 
a corner. His trust is hard won. Once you have proven 
yourself to Luther, he is completely loyal.  

Note: Subject exhibits many animalistic tendencies due 
to his early childhood years. These traits were highly 
developed and allowed the child Luther to survive in the 
harsh environment of his home world. These traits are what zoologists term as predatory in nature.  

Note: Luther Fry is very cold and withdrawn. He has little or no remorse for his actions. He however is a fanatical patriot when it comes to the Federation and what it stands for. In his mind, it is acceptable to commit acts that go against these beliefs if in the end the UPF is protected. Would and will do anything in his power to safe guard the UFP.  

  Pre-Starfleet History

 2340 Born to Albert and Merith Fry, New Avalon colony. New Avalon colony was a non-Federation  sanctioned colony composed of human colonists from the Canadian and British regions of Earth. It was a marginal class M world with a very short growing season, many dangerous indigenous life forms. Instead of a new paradise, the colonists had to fight for their very survival! Luther had to learn the skills of wilderness survival and internal discipline at a young age if he was to survive. 

2351 The colony is discovered and recovered/rescued by the USS Alaska. Luther's father had died four years ago from a Raeb mauling while out fishing, and his mother died three months before the Alaska's arrival from a sickness similar to Smallpox. Luther was living a feral existence. Luther is adopted by the Alaska's Andorian Security Chief and sent to live with the Chief's family (Keth/Clan Idrani) on Andor. Their Keth/clan lived a tradition Andorian life in a small village in the Tavada Mountains. With them Luther learned the ways of the traditional Andorian Hunter/Warrior. He easily fit into this new culture. He learned not only their Language but also their ways and religion. 

Starfleet Military Records

2358 Luther is accepted and enters Starfleet Academy's 
Marine Officer Training program.  

2362 While undergoing Advance Desert Warfare/Survival 
training on Mars, Anti-Federation/Earth Separationist 
Terrorists attempted to seize control of Polar Processing 
station 690 and its crew! Fry as training squad leader took 
command and not only defended the station, but drove 
the enemy back through the use of mainly  creative and unorthodox tactics from his days on New Avalon. He supervised the creation of fortifications, and showed the rest of his squad and the station's crew how to improvise some interesting traps and personal weapons from what was available. 

-Even though Fry was later chastised at a board of 
inquiry for the lethal effects of his "contraptions" 
(as one of the board's officers put it). Fry received a 
commendation for his actions.   

-Cadet Luther Fry graduates with full honors and the 
rank of Lieutenant  

2363 As a result of the Polar 690 incident, Fry is sent 
to attend Starfleet's Counter-Terrorism School, Hereford 
England Earth. Finishing in the top 10% of the course. 
After completing the course, he is assigned to the USS 
Ticonderoga (Excelsior class); 2nd Platoon/ 1st Company/ 3rd Battalion/ 4th Starfleet Marine Regiment.  

2365 Participated in the rescue of miners held hostage 
on Janus VI by Nausican raiders after a botched raid of 
the mine's precious metal stores. Fry is decorated for his 
actions in the rescue and protection of the hostages. Due 
to the casualties sustained by the Starfleet Marines, Fry was also placed in command of the 2nd Platoon 

2367 In response to the Borg incursion the Ticonderoga 
was en route to Wolf 359 to meet up with the rest of the 
fleet, when there was an explosion in engineering and 
a ship wide out break of plasma fires. There were 
multi-system failures throughout the ship and the ship's 
fire suppression system was out! Fry and his marines 
were instrumental in bringing the fires under control and
saving the lives of numerous trapped crewmen! Damage
was extensive, and the Ticonderoga would have normally 
been scrapped, but after the loss of so many ships at 
Wolf 359, it was towed into Space Dock for repairs and 
refit. During rescue operations, Luther and a number of 
other marines were exposed to a series of micro-subspace 
bubbles that had developed in the region of the ship’s warp reactor.  

2368 While the Ticonderoga was undergoing repairs/refit, 
Lt. Fry attended Unconventional Warfare and Tactics 
school on Andor. Part of the training involves Personal 
Re-entry/Drop training.  

2369 Attended Starfleet Advanced Tactical Training  

2370 Officially assigned to the Marine detachment of 
Star Station Sigma 375  

(Recently Declassified)

n reality, Luther is assigned to command a Covert 
Para-military Black Operations unit known as the 
Nightstalkers. This unit was funded out of accounts 
from the UPF Agricultural Relief Organization. To whom
this unit reported to is still under investigation. Much of 
the Nightstalker's actions/operations are still unknown and just coming to light. Much of the following therefore is incomplete.

2370 It seems in an effort to destabilize Cardassian influence in the demilitarized zone, the Nightstalkers were instructed to help with the formation of Maquis and assist them in  their earliest endeavors.  

2373 In a total reversal due to the Maquis' use of biogenic
weapons, the Nightstalkers are ordered to destroy the 
organization they helped to create. On 2373.11.30, 
Quantum explosive devices destroy the Maquis colony of 
Felran IX, a site of a Maquis Biogenic’s lab. Evidence points to Nightstalker involvement.

2373 During the recent Klingon conflict, the Nightstalkers 
were able to penetrate Qo'noS's formidable defenses
and destroy an important C3 (Command, Control,
Communications) facility, killing hundreds of ranking 
Klingon personnel. This incident is attributed to why 
Gowron moved his command off planet to a heavily 
fortified station.
  
2373 Due to moral conflicts Luther leaves the 
Nightstalkers. Luther is posted to the USS Ticonderoga
MLS (Marine Landing Support) as the commander 
of the Pathfinder/Recon Company of the 2nd MEU 
(SOC), Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special 
Operations Capable). The 2nd MEU (SOC) served 
like a mobile fire brigade during the Klingon conflict.
The 2nd MEU (SOC) spearheaded the Federation 
landing on Ganalda IV. Here the 2nd MEU (SOC) 
had to fend off numerous Klingon counter attacks 
until the system was secured and reinforcements 
could be brought in. Fry was awarded the Citation
of Conspicuous Gallantry and the 2nd MEU (SOC)
was awarded a unit citation of the Starfleet Medal 
of Valor for its performance as a whole.  

2374 Posted to the USS Ultima, Task Force 67, Bravo
Fleet, under then Commodore Greystone. (Activities
too numerous to be listed here. Please consult Ultima Logs)

2375 Assigned to the position of Chief Marine TF 67.
Later becomes Marine XO of Bravo Fleet.  

2375 Promoted to CINCMF Bravo Fleet, and to the
rank of Brig General. Luther assumes command of
the USS Atlantis (Galaxy class refit)  

2376 Luther is court-martialled and stripped of his rank. 
Luther is sentenced to twenty-five years hard labor. 
The incident is classified and the records sealed at 
the order of Star Fleet Command.  

2376 Luther escapes closed custody on Star base Bravo 
and makes his way to the “Triangle” region of space that 
borders the Federation, Klingon, and Romulan empires. 
Here he hires out as a mercenary, and hired gun to the 
highest bidder. 
  
2378 Luther’s path crossed with Admiral Pike and the 
crew of the Peacemaker while they were on a mission 
in the Triangle. The Major was at first detained in close 
custody by the Peacemaker then agreed to aid them 
on their mission. After the mission Admiral Pike 
convinced Luther to stay on with the ship at first as a 
“Specialist” then after convincing Star Fleet to commute 
Luther’s sentence, and re-instate his commission though 
at a lower rank of Major. At this point Luther took 
command of the Peacemaker’s Marine detachment. 
He has recently been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant
Colonel. 

Following a several year long distance courtship, Luther
and Riov Ro'wena e-des d'Cado t'K're, former CMO of 
the IRV Rakata and Romulan Ambassador to the Federation, were recently married. Luther's new wife and the couple' adopted son now reside aboard the USS Peacemaker where Ro'wena is serving as Flight Surgeon to the 33rd MEU.
