Will graduated from Starfleet Academy in 2357 ranked 8th in his class. As of 2369 he had received five decorations. His first assignment after graduating was to the U.S.S. Pegasus, a ship that disappeared in 2358 under mysterious circumstances. Early in his career Riker was stationed on the Planet Betazed where he had a romantic relationship with Deanna Troi, later to be the counselor aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise D. Riker chose to make Starfleet his priority over the relationship and accepted a posting to the U.S.S. Potemkin. While aboard the Potemkin Riker led a rescue mission to Nervala IV. This dangerous mission brought a promotion to Lt. Commander and a citation for exceptional valor. A by product of this rescue was the creation of a second Riker due to a transporter malfunction. This fact was not determined until years later. Riker joined the Enterprise D at Deneb IV. Riker has turned down command of other Starships, including the U.S.S. Drake, U.S.S. Aries, and the U.S.S. Melbourne. Riker served aboard a Klingon vessel, the Pagh, as part of an officer exchange program. "A Matter of Honor" Riker likes unconventional solutions to problems. Data once noted that he chose conventional solutions less than one-quarter of the time. Riker's hobbies include cooking and jazz music and he has a reputation as a pretty good trombone player.
