History:Daniel was the only child of Starfleet officers. His parents, along with their best friend Simok, died when their ship exploded. Simok's father, Ambassador Sidak of Vulcan, and his wife, T'Rami, took 6-year-old Daniel to Vulcan and raised him as their foster son. At 18, Daniel enrolled in Starfleet Academy and went on to have a brilliant career, even earning a Medal of Honor. Almost a year after being assigned as Chief Operations Officer of the USS Yamato, Daniel died at the hands of his foster father. Sidak was being controlled by an extragalactic parasite who forced him to kill Daniel in a Vulcan Trial by Combat ("Conspiracy"). Starfleet honored Daniel posthumously by naming a ship after him.

History:The being who would be named Damien was found in a small ship of then unknown configuration that crashed on the planet after a particularly violent ion storm. Besides Damien, there were four other crewmembers, all dead. Damien was found barely alived. Thanks to a reformed Starfleet surgeon, Dr. Kurt Waldergahr, Damien survived. Dr. Waldergahr had to excise many of the cybernetic components in Damien's body, like the armor plates; others, like the eye, were replaced by Federation standards. After notifying Starfleet of the event, Kurt and his wife, Martha, decided to take care of Damien. They gave him a name, fed him and taught him everything, from language to etiquette. Four years later, Damien applied for Starfleet Academy. He suffered double the scrutiny necessary, but was accepted. Damien graduated with High Honors and went to have a fine career. After the Enterprise had first contact with the Borg Collective (ST:TNG Q Who?), Damien was recalled to Starfleet Command and underwent a new series of tests. Once again, he passed, but was put under observation, as no one knew for sure if he was Borg or not. After the Borg invasion (ST:TNG The Best of Both Worlds), it was confirmed that Damien was, in fact, Borg. Starfleet Command considered him a possible security risk, but he had not given them any reason, during his career, to warrant a dismissal from service. Even so, Damien began to suffer a very subtle discrimination concerning advancement in ranks. Damien does not remember anything prior to his waking up on the Federation farming colony of Gaius III. His organic memory is suffering amnesia and his computer implant had most of its memory banks either destroyed or wiped clean. Also, the subspace communicator implant that let every Borg communicate with the Collective was damaged during the crash, so the Borg could never track Damien's ship.
