His father taught part of the Medical Course at Starfleet Medical, while his mother was a researcher with Starfleet Medical. When he was two years old his mother gave birth to his sister, Alyssa. Unfortunately, before Alyssa's first birthday (David was approximately 3 years old) both of his parents and his sister were killed in a tragic acccient when their shuttlecraft as destroyed by Nausicaan pirates. This event eventually lead to a fierce hatred of pirates and outlaws, and of the Nausicaan people in specific.
After the deaths of his family the young boy was taken in by a woman who went by the name of Alice, who had claimed to have been a very close friend of his parents. Alice took the child away from Earth and raised him as her own, though she taught him about his parents and his heritage. However, along with raising the child, she also began teaching him the basics of computer technology, both hand-to-hand and energy weapon combat, and Terran history. By the age of fourteen he was competent in all subjects. By the age of sixteen he had been accepted into Starfleet Academy.
The Academy
In the Academy he studied medical science, a subject he had enjoyed as a child. He also trained in tactical and security systems on the side. After four years he graduated third in his class.
It was during this time of his life that Alice explained who she was, and described to him the organization she worked for. At the end of their conversation, Alice told him that David had been choosen since before birth to join the ranks of her organization, and that she had groomed him for nearly a decade and a half to do so. Alice offered the young man a position, and David accepted.
Life on Warrior
On Stardate 240309.12 Lieutenant (Junior-Grade) David King arrived on board the USS Warrior, where he had been assigned as Assistant Medical Officer. It was not long, however, before the department chief was killed in combat, and Captain Soleta promoted the young man to Chief Medical Officer.
Now age 24, the young doctor met TiaRae, a young Orion woman on the run from her past. They quickly began courting and, a year later, were married by Captain Soleta in a ceremony aboard the Warrior. They continued living there peacfully even after Captain Soleta retired and Captain Sasha Spearling took Command with Commander Jolias Enor taking over as First Officer.
Shortly after the change of command Doctor King lead a medical team that found a cure for a diseased world's population, leading to the Doctor's promotion to Lieutenant. Unfortunately Captain Spearling had recently gone on detatched duty, and it was Lieutenant John Strongarm (on behalf of Omicron Command), not the Captain herself, that gave David his promotion.
New Life and Life Lost
While on a diplomatic away mission to Tharkas IV he was informed that his wife had just found out she was pregnant. Saddly, just weeks after learning of his TiaRae's pregnancy, David was called off the Warrior and stationed on Starbase 001, in orbit of Earth. Along with a handful of other doctors from around Starfleet, the recently promoted Lietuenant Commander was faced with one of his most stubborn puzzels yet, a genetically engineered virus spreading through the Federation's agricultural world destroying crops meant feed millions of Federation citizens.
He returned (triumphantly) to the USS Warrior just over a month before the birth of his daughter, whom the couple named Sarah Elizabeth. One year later the ship came under attack by a group of Romulan vessels set on starting a civil war within the Star Empire; during the attack both TiaRae and Sarah were killed when their quarters decompressed. Their bodies were never found, and Doctor King spiraled into a deep depression.
Moving On
Immediately after the deaths of his wife and daughter David requested for a transfer off the Warrior. The memories the vessel contained were just too much for the Doctor to contend with and maintain a daily routine with his duties. His request was accepted and he was reassigned to San Frontieres Colony as Surgeon General.
While en route to the colony on board the USS Padua, King once again encoutered a crop-killing plage he had once before defeated. This strand, however, had mutated to an airborn variant which had begun killing off lower animal life on worlds. It was only a matter of time before it mutuated to affect humanoid life forms.
Finally, with the assistance of the medical staff on board the Padua, King was able to once again defeat the plague.
Dusk and Retirement
He served as Surgeon General on the colony for eighteen months, before finally deciding to settle down. The life in the service had not been kind to him over the course of the years, and the Doctor thought that a civilian life might be a little calmer.
Deciding to stay on the colony, King bought a small cafe on along the river of San Frontieres, which became a very successful establishment. The Sunset Cafe sustained a comfortable lifestyle, and allowed David to meet many different people and make many diverse friends.
Return to Duty
On Stardate 240908.01 Doctor King was reactivated to 'active duty' duty status by a little known and seldom used 'Reserve Activation Clause' in the Starfleet charter. He served as Chief Medical Officer on the Starship Warrior during its shakedown cruise before being reassigned to the Charon.
Medical History
During his time on board the USS Pauda, Doctor King served on an away team that took him aboard a smuggerl's vessel as the team responded to a supposed 'medical emergency.' During this away mission the Doctor was taken hostage and, through the course of events, sustained a major wound to his left knee. After the team was recovered David refused to have the knee replaced, and as a result required a cane to gain any sense of mobility.
[UPDATE] After three years of usuing a cane, King finally requested to have the knee fitted with a cybernetic replacement; David now has full use of the leg, though he does have occasional pains. The cane is no longer a necessary apparatus.
