Personality & Traits

Although slow to anger, at no point has he backed down from a fight, whther it be from a Bolians to Brikar. He's never been much of a fan of women who liked him for his boyish good-looks, and has resulted in his haphazard grooming style and perpetual dishevelment. He is a personable fellow, and relaxed even while on duty. He knows the price of keeping things too tight, but isn't one to let things go so loose as to lose their edge. | |

History
| Personal History | 'Wraith' has always had a flare for making a sound opening statement; whether it's racing to a commanding lead in whichever sport catches his fancy, Wraith has always left an impression. Raised by his Betazoid mother from the age of six, Marcus Raynor made life interesting for her by displaying many of his father's traits, despite the older Raynor having little to no influence on the younger's life whatsoever. Wraith was a uniquely adaptive child growing up, fitting in well amongst most in school. Those he did not fit in so well with, he let know quite blatantly what he thought about them. Usually this required intervention by at least two others to pull him off of them. Once out of high school, Marcus enlisted in Starfleet at the surprise of his mother, who knew nothing of it until he had already shipped out. He began his career in tactical, but showed a natural-born talent for command. At twenty-two he applied and was accepted into Officer Candidate School. At twenty-four he earned his wings as a Starfighter pilot, and by the time he was twenty-seven he had distinguished himself as a formidable fighter opponent, having acquitted himself as a skilled Interceptor pilot against Cardassian dissidents and Breen excursions into Cardassian space while his squadron was serving as part of of Cardassian Support Force Three-One. Throughout his young career Wraith has shown an unwavering bravery in supporting his fellow crew in hostile conflict. Although considered for becoming a Flight Instructor at the Olympus Mons Flight Range, Raynor has remained committed to his career as a pilot, feeling most at home serving on deep space assignments than being planet-side. |
