Cpt. Richard J. Wakefield
USS HitchHiker
NC-92742 (9+27+4+2=42 heh) Discovery Class
Science Officer (Crowd control)
As far as the CC or healing playstyle, in all my hears of playing MMOs, from UO to STO, I have never once played a supporting class beyond what support a hunter/ranger ranged DPS type. I'm a science geek IRL though and figured to give it a try here in STO and am in absolute love with it.
I feel I have a good understanding of science and how to use STOs science skills tactically. Though years ago I earned the nickname "Rash" due to my paying squishy characters who tended to just jump into the fray of things without thinking, using chaos as a favorite tactic;) So as far as positions within the fleet, I'll surely try to refrain from such rash behavior and try to keep up CC.
Previous games...well thats a good long list. Been playing MMOs before UO if you count MUDs. Then as far as mainstream MMOs, UO, EQ, DAoC, SWG, AC, AO, WoW, WAR, AoC, EQ2, FE, VG:SOH, LOTOR, D&D, CoX, Auto Assult, Earth and Beyond, Tabula Rasa, PotBS and of course my personal favorite EvE. A few more but cant remember them all.

Wakefield, J Richard, half human. Born New York City, NA Earth 2373. Throughout his youth and early adult years, has displayed an advanced and impressive understanding of mathematics and sciences. At the age of 14, selected for entrance into the Starfleet Academy when of legal age.
During his years in the academy, Wakefield had shown remarkable talent for engineering, graviton, particle and quantum physics and astrometrics. Though it was determined early on that command would be, for lack of a better phrase, an inadequate use of his time. He displayed little skill for social situations and often regarded social niceties with difficulty.
After graduation from the academy, he was immediately offered a research position aboard the USS HitchHiker under the command of a Captain Cregan Maroc. For years, Mr. Wakefield has seemed content to bury himself in his work, uninterested in promotion or advancing anything else other than his own personal knowledge.
During the attack by the Borg in the Vega sector, the entire bridge crew was either killed or incapacitated. Having no other options available to him, Ensign Wakefield and a green tactical officer took control of the ship, managing to assist in the fight against the Borg. In the process, capturing a live Borg.
After the ship and its remaining crew were safe at Spacedock, Captain Maroc, who survived but is currently unable to take command of a ship while he completes rehabilitation, gives command of the HitchHiker over to Mr. Wakefield, after promoting him to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. Starfleet Command, after reviewing his actions during the current battle, approve of the shift of Command on a temporary basis and upon request by Lt. Wakefield, he was also allowed to take the Borg he had liberated aboard for reintergration into individuality.
Repairs on USS HitchHiker almost complete, new crew has been assigned. First mission pending.
