James keeps a relatively unkempt appearance, even though one would not consider it sloppy.

His green eyes are soft and gentle, not what most would consider to be command material. | James keeps a relatively unkempt appearance, even though one would not consider it sloppy.

History
Early Life (2377 - 2382)
Born on Mars, James spent his early years there as his parents, Norah and Edward, were administrative members of the local government at this time. He lived with his two siblings, Dylan (2379) and Stewart (2381), in a modest apartment in peace and quiet ... or as much peace and quiet as you can have with three young boys running around the place.
He attended preschool while still on Mars, but it was not long until the Borg War starts.
The Borg War (2382 - 2398)
The long and terrible Borg War was nothing more than a curiosity to a young boy who spent most of his time on Mars while his parents continued to serve on Mars. As news began to grow worse and worse, tensions were rising on Mars and the Reed family picked up and headed to Spacedock One in 2385 where his father was tasked with heading the civilian population on the station.
There, as a young boy, James got to see the true terror of the war as it unfolded. He was only eight years old when they moved, but he spent most of his time around the station's officers, hearing stories of what was happening and seeing the survivors of the battles with the Borg come in.
Here he attended primary and secondary school and upon graduation at the age of 16 (2393), enlisted at Starfleet Academy as part of an early enrollment initiative to get new officers into the ranks as quickly as possible. This was against the wishes of his father, who was still the administrator on Spacedock One.
At the Academy, James quickly proved himself to be the equal to his peers, even at his young age. It did not take long for him to settle in and excel at the Academy like many others, and while he did not distinguish himself in academics, he was very well liked and at ease when commanding others. He was recommended to complete command school, and did so in record time, and was assigned as an Asst. Chief Tactical Officer
