PERSONAL HISTORY

 

 

 

At an early age, young Hans Seiben demonstrated interests in space travel after his parents took him on an Intergalactic Cruise when he was five. From then on in, he remained determined to one day enter Starfleet Academy and be posted on a Starfleet ship like his old man did.

 

With his mother's encouragement, Seiben pursued a career in Engineering, and seemed to excel quite well in technical pre-requisites for Engineering at school. At the age of ten, Seiben toured the Cochrane Warp Technology factory with his mother.

 

At the age of eighteen, Seiben was enrolled into Starfleet Academy. He graduated four years later graduating in the top ten percent of his graduating class, specialising in Warp systems. With the political power of his father (then) Rear Admiral Alexander Seiben, Hans was posted onto the the Constitution-Class USS Hood and reported for duty on star date 6305.20

 

Since then, Hans has arisen to ranks of Senior Lieutenant and went through many hardships and happiness whilst on the Hood all with grace and dignity. But most of all his time on the Hood has been rewarding for him. On his first mission on the Hood, Seiben met his future wife to be on Starbase 29.

 

 

The couple would marry a few years later in Miami, Florida with their family, friends and crew from the USS Hood (which Lucy would also be assigned to). The two served together on the Hood for another year until Lucy took time off, after the trial of Captain Huff.

 

 

In their villa, near Auckland, New Zealand, it would become known that Lucy would be pregnant with their first child. A son, Peter Seiben was born in Auckland nine months later. After her maternity leave, Lucy would serve on other ships and stations than her husband, but they kept in constant contact with each other.

 

 

 

On the Hood, Hans rose up in the ranks eventually attaining the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He served aboard the vessel until 2272, when he was critically wounded during a surprise Klingon attack on the Hood. Hans was immediately taken back to Earth for treatment.

 

 

 

Hans would recover from his injuries, after extensive surgeries and replacement of much of his right leg and both arms with prosthetic limbs. The limbs are virtually indistinguishable from real arms and legs in both looks and function and sometimes walks with the use of a cane.

 

 

After his recovery, he was transferred to the USS Lexington as their Chief Engineering Officer. He served on this vessel (and its refit) for eight years, before being selected to serve on the USS Valiant as Executive and later Commanding officer of this vessel.

 

 

Upon his promotion to Rear Admiral, Hans was selected to serve in Starfleet Command in San Francisco in the Department of Defense as an advisor. But, not liking this job, he successfully petitioned for a command position and was assigned command of Earth Space Dock.

 

 

As a Flag Officer and an Admiral, Hans was also given command of the USS Aurora (NCC-1995, Constellation Class), a support/exploration vessel assigned to the station. Hans continues to command both Earth Space Dock and the Aurora to this day.

 

 

 

HOBBIES & INTERESTS

 

Hans has a wide variety of interests ranging from active to casual. While not as active as his younger brother, Hans still enjoys the outdoors, and enjoys scuba diving, horse back riding and snowboarding. He also likes hunting, hiking and camping as well.

 

 

Still the Engineer, Hans also likes fixing his own shuttles and his collection of old space craft, as well as his mint condition 1967 Porsche 911 Targa, which he configured to run on 23^rd century propulsion technology. He tries to keep up to date with the latest technologies.

 

 

 

A habit he got from his days on the USS Hood, Hans enjoys drinking coffee at Starbucks and Tim Horton's and eating donuts. His favourite flavours are Boston crème, strawberry jelly and glazed sugar coated crullers. He also is a wine connoisseur and loves beer.

 

 

But to prevent himself from getting too fat, Hans enjoys taking walks and runs on the recreation room, or around the station. Like his brother, Hans is a good family man and enjoys spending time with his family and enjoys going on holidays to far off remote places with them.
