Background: Born in New Springs California, James was the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Moorcroft members of the federation themselves which gave James the knowledge and desire to follow his parents footsteps. His parents didn’t push him towards Starfleet, in fact they tried to push him in other directions but he persisted in joining Starfleet. His academic venture wasn’t all that impressive as far as action like some flamboyant officers but it was filled with personal goal achievements which gave him the wanting urge to become one of Starfleet’s best officers. His four years in the academy was probably the most intellectual and rewarding time in his life.  

James first assignment was aboard the Constellation class Bosmere as the first officer. His Captain, Chris Shane took him under his wing and showed him the in and outs of being a starfleet officer. Not only was Capt Shane is commanding office but became a very close friend. Many nights were filled with poker and chess matches that he lost more than won but it was the challenge that excited him. 

The day that James will never forget was the day that they encountered the rogue Romulan ship Shizmer as it was attempting to strike the Federation outpost 23. This was the day that he lost not only his ship due to extreme damage but lost his captain as well. The battle was won under the command of James but in his eyes the federation lost that day. 

His next assignment took him to the Romulan Border sector command starbase 241 where he command the Cheyenne Class heavy cruiser. His time on this ship was his most peaceful of his duties, however, being on the Romulan border brought past memories back to him in which brought a hardship upon the crew for he was always running drills preparing for a Romulan attack. The crew learned to respect these drills for there were a few stand off encounters with the Romulans, but due to his strong cunning and refusal to back down they ended with the Romulan pulling back.

With the Dominion war occurring James was reassigned to the Majestic Class battle cruiser Darkstar. A time that he wanted to forget. Many lives were lost in this war. His skill and the skill of his crew barely escaped with their lives. The constant battle and loss of life almost broke James, but thanks to some dear friends and strong consoling he managed to keep his wits about him. Now after twelve years commanding the Darkstar he is once again reassigned to a new ship. The Artemis
