Personal History
The son of a successful businessman, Peter took a keen interest in the family transportation company at a young age but never managed to settle down, and eventually joined Starfleet. Already considered to have had quite a lengthy service, Peter doesn't see himself ever leaving the fleet.

His first assignment was the USS CENTURY, and from there he has worked in various positions on various ships in the fleet, including stints as the Executive Officer on two separate vessels.

His family is important to him and it seems to constantly grow. His daughter is adopted, yet neither he nor she ever think of them being anything other than father and daughter. After a first marriage that ended in a quite amicable manner, Peter is now married to Matthew whom he met when the latter joined the USS PROPHECY as the Chief Security Officer. They are the proud fathers of twin boys created from their DNA with the help of Dr Brouder and carried to term by their close friend Daisy Byrne.

His assignment on the USS PROPHECY was cut short when the ship was lost on a mission in the ISC Dimension, but he along with the majority of the remaining crew were reassigned to the USS STONEHENGE. The mission created some strain on his marriage to Matthew when a renegade Cairon scientist created a genetic clone of Peter with the same memories. They were essentially indistinguishable by the current levels of technology available to the crew. Tragically, one of the two Peters was killed while attempting to stabilise a chain of inter-dimensional rifts they used to return home.

Peter’s second stint as ExO on a Starfleet vessel, the STONEHENGE, ended when he obtained his PhD and was promoted to the rank of Captain in acknowledgement of that achievement. Keen to make use of his engineering talents, he was reassigned to the USS PENDRAGON as the Chief Engineer. Unfortunately, the new assignment brought with it some strain as Matthew remained assigned to the USS STONEHENGE. Following an accident that has left the USS PENDRAGON stranded far away from home with her CO in medical stasis, Peter has assumed command of the ship.

In an accident during an early mission on the CENTURY, the ship became semi-sentient and a telepathic link was forged between Peter (who was possessed of latent telepathic abilities) and the ship. One of only a few Humans who ever shows any functionality for telepathy, Peter's ability is relatively low key. He is able to communicate with other telepaths, although communication with Vulcans has so far required physical contact. He is also able to sense, and get an impression of the emotional state, of people he is close to. He has become quite adept at shielding his mind and much of the time his telepathic abilities, limited as they are, are not even evident. The twins, Benham and Boone, are also mildly telepathic and they seem to be able to communicate feelings to Peter with great ease. Peter is in possession of a piece of technology, created by the telepathic race known as the Batamet, that boosts his telepathic abilities by a relatively substantial amount. However, use of the technology is exhausting to Peter.
