William Kellin

LT **Kellin** is a male Human officer in the 24th century Starfleet. Originally from the late 2000s him and his entire family were time displaced into the 24th Century.

## History

By the age of 5, people were already calling Will Kellin "the little genius." At the age of 6 (when he was already in the third grade), he dismantled the family's Replicator, then put it back together again in perfect working order much to his family's amazement.

Will graduated from the Camden Canyon School of Science at the age of 9 with the highest average in the school's history.

His I.Q. at the time of the Jupiter 2's liftoff was 182, and he had just graduated from the Santa Fe High School of Science.

On Earth, Will's extraordinary intelligence made him something of a misfit. Neither children his own age nor the older students with whom he attended school understood him very well. He often tried to take on adult responsibilities, but adults had trouble taking him seriously.

On October 16, 2020, The United States is about to launch of one of history's great adventures: man's colonization of deep space. The Jupiter 2

Its mission is to take a single family on a 98 year Journey to a planet of the nearby star Alpha Centauri, which space probes had revealed to possess ideal conditions for human life. The Kellin family was selected from among two million volunteers for this mission. The family includes Professor John Kellin, his wife, Maureen, their children, Judy, Penny , and Will. They are accompanied by their pilot, U.S. Space Corps Major Donald West , who is trained to fly the ship. Otherwise, the Robinsons and West will be in freezing tubes for the voyage, with the tubes opening when the spacecraft approached its destination. Unless there was a problem with the ship's navigation or guidance system during the voyage,

Other nations were also racing to colonize space, and they would stop at nothing, not even sabotage, to thwart the United States' effort. Dr. Zachary Smith, a psychologist and environmental control expert, is also a foreign secret agent. He reprograms the Jupiter 2's B-9 environmental control robot, to destroy critical systems on the spaceship eight hours after launch. Smith is trapped aboard at launch and his extra weight throws the Jupiter 2 off course, causing it to encounter a meteor storm. This plus the robot's rampage causes the ship to become lost.

The Kellin Family spent 98 years a drift in space with no knowledge they were off course, once their sleeper pods once they woke up they discovered the problems and discovered that the extra Emergency Pod was now occupied by their assassin.

The Family eventually landed on a unexplored planet and stayed there repairing their ship for over a Year, during this time Will befriended the Ship's Robot and even Dr. Smith.

The family eventually got their ship off the planet and repaired enough to explore and try to find their way home, nearly 3 years passed of jumping from planet to Planet until discovering a Wormhole, and while Scans showed that it lead back near Earth only about 3 years away at their current Travel they did not realize it lead to a diffrent time. when they entered the Wormhole they arrived in 2355 near Earth.

### Readjusting

Will along with his family had to readjust to their new life and eventually the family adapted.

### Skills untested(2368-2373)

Will was assigned next to the USS Freeman a older Oberth Class that was still in use for Survey missions and Supply transports for Second Contacts. He eventually was transferred to the USS USS *Appalachia* in 2370 his Father now a Starfleet Admiral tried to take him under his wing and keep him out of trouble, They were involved in the Battle of Sector 001 and the USS Appalachia took heavy damage and John was killed. after the battle Will was assigned to the USS Standing Bear.

### War Time Skills(2373-2375)

Kellin was serving aboard the USS Standing Bear in 2373 During the start of the War it was a front line Heavily Modified Excelsior Class. In  2375. He was assigned to AR-558, a planet that the Federation Alliance had captured from the Dominion to help support the Marines in Engineering and Operations, under the command of Marine Captain Loomis. They were assigned to protect the planet's communication array. Other members of the 150-person unit included Commander Parker, Vargas, Reese, McGreevey, and Lieutenant Nadia Larkin.

The team successfully held the location for five months, despite expecting to be replaced in ninety days. Over a hundred of the unit were killed over this time, including Loomis and Parker. Kellin worked to understand the Dominion technology in the communications array in order to use it, though he had little success.

When Captain Benjamin Sisko and his crew arrived to help the unit, Jadzia Dax helped Kellin with the array. Sisko ordered them to pause and switch to expose the subspace anti-personnel mines (known as "Houdinis") that had threatened them, and to turn them on the Jem'Hadar. In the process, Dax and Kellin became friends and he was impressed with the engineering knowledge she had.

Kellin was wounded in the final Jem'Hadar attack against AR-558, while saving Jadzia life, before the arrival of reinforcements and relief from the USS *Veracruz*.
