Caleb Sparks

Secretary Caleb Sparks is the third child of the infamous Sparks family.  After a massive shuttle accident in 2390, he was thought to be deceased until his pattern was found in the transporter buffer.  Being brought back, Caleb eventually resumed his place in Starfleet and is living on Earth working as the Secretary of Interior for both the Greenwood and Sorna administrations.
==Background Information==
Born to the Sparks family, Caleb was number three and had a lot riding on him as the second son of the family. He was true to his values and married just after Starfleet but things never worked out when he found he was infertile due to a low sperm count. 
In 2390, he was aboard the family shuttle, going to a family wedding when it caught fire.  Taking several of the kids, his pattern was trapped in the transporter buffer.  When the ship went to a Ferengi scrap yard, his pattern along with the others were found but only his was viable enough to recover.  Caleb spent the next year or so until November, 2391 working in the scrap yard for a Ferengi known as Grout.  Not remembering who he was, it wasn't until his younger sister Megan Greenwood recognized him while on Deep Space Nine for a loading mission that he was discovered.
The remaining siblings that survived the crash were adopted out to different families once child services realized that their older sister Brittany was not competent to be their main caregiver. Nathan and Olliander Sparks went to Margianne al-Khalid and Iskander al-Khalid CP, travelling from Bajor to Betazed. Caleb took the responsibility of looking after his little brother Sawyer Sparks as the boy has a hearing impairment. Megan, Willow and Vincent were adopted by the Terran Christopher Greenwood CP, while the remaining siblings Peter, Quinn, Upton, Robyn and Theresa are with unknown families. 
As time went on, Caleb began to feel resentment to the siblings adopted as he felt he lost more of his family. He is currently estranged from the bulk of the Sparks family.
==Personal Life==
Isabelle Richardson (2392-2393): Caleb met his ex-girlfriend while at the gym. In an attempt to lose weight, he went to the gym once and then later met after he had slimmed down.

Moira Hedrin CP (2393-2393): Caleb met his lover when he was suspected in her attack by a serial killer on Bajor. When she had recuperated, they began to speak and dated until he left on a Starfleet assignment. They remain friends.
Brooke Price CP (2397-2403): Caleb met his girlfriend when she was inducting him to Section 31 and served as his mentor in the program. Some time later, it became known that Caleb liked her as more than friends and they started a serious relationship. They broke up several years later after realizing they were better off as friends.

After his divorce he gained a considerable amount of weight in his own depression.
