Victor was born to Chase and Martha Ross in 1792 in Edinburgh Scotland. Chase and Martha had come to reside in Edinburgh after their ship crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off of the coast of Scotland in 1701 while visiting Earth. Chase joined the British military in 1703 during the War of Spanish Succession. He moved up quickly through the military ranks to Major General when he retired as commanding officer to the Royal Regiment of Artillery in 1748. During his military career, Martha had given birth to 6 daughters. Chase was then chosen to take command of the Yoeman of the Guard. It was then that King George II bestowed upon him the title of Baronet, a title that Chase was not able to pass on until Victor was born in 1792, following two daughters born before him and proceeding two more sons born afterwards.

===Early Life===
  
In 1832, Victor attended the University of Edinburgh School of Medicine and immediately served two years in the Royal Army as a field doctor, followed by several years as a family doctor in private practice. Once a ‘normal’ human life span had passed, Victor spent the next 400 years moving around Scotland, England, Ireland, France, Spain, and America, each time serving in some sort of medical vocation no matter where he went. In 2252 Chase passed away from natural causes, leaving all of his property in Edinburgh to his eldest son: Victor, who continued to hold and maintain the property until in 2304 when he moved to San Francisco to teach as a civilian instructor for Starfleet Academy; teaching epidemiology, surgery, and emergency medicine.

Chase and Martha Ross were an El-Aurian couple on vacation to Earth in 1701 when their ship crashed into the Atlantic Ocean, leading them to eventually reside in Edinburgh, Scotland. Stranded, the couple did everything they could to fit into Human society. In 1703 Chase joined the British military during the War of Spanish Succession. With a lifetime of experience in various vocations, Chase quickly rose through the military ranks to Major General, commanding the Royal Regiment of Artillery until his retirement in 1748, when King George II bestowed upon him the title of Baron. During his military career, Martha had given birth to 6 daughters, eventually giving birth to Victor in 1792. From his earliest days Victor showed great interest in both music and medicine during his studies with a private tutor, eventually pursuing both interests when he attended the University of Edinburgh in 1832.  
  
In 2386 shortly after the First Battle of Bajor, Victor served on Earth as Assistant Chief of Surgery for an Emergency Wartime Hospital, set up as a massive medical facility for war casualties. Unfortunately for Victor and other doctors working at the hospital, there were often no survivors – entire crews being assimilated or blown into space. Despite this, Victor served at the hospital throughout the course of the fighting, and for a time afterwards.

The twelve years spent at the university weren't easy: medicine was much tougher work in those days, with little understanding of the human body, brain, and functions. He graduated in 1844 with a doctorate in Medicine and a minor in Music Performance, immediately commissioning into the Royal Army as a field doctor for the next two years.  
  
Since the war, Victor has been eager to do his part to help from beyond Earth and applied for a Medical position within Starfleet. In recognition of his vast experience and knowledge, he was given a commission and position onboard Deep Space 5.

After his brief military tour, Victor opened up his own private practice in London, England serving as a local doctor. He was well-known locally for his stubborn dedication to his patients, often curing impossible ailments simply by keeping his patient happy. It was during these days that Victor first realized the importance of socialization and camaraderie for human health. During his practice he found that simply talking to his patients, listening to them, and showing compassion was the key to successful medical treatment.

Victor remained in private practice until 1905 when his older sister Kathrine, who he’d always been close with, became ill and summoned him back to Edinburgh to live nearby his childhood home with her and her family.

Instead, he encouraged her to go about her day-to-day activities enjoying his company and the natural sunlight. To his great pleasure, she showed slow signs of recovery.

By 1906, Victor began running his private practice through Kathrine’s house while she continued to recover.
