About Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Jean-Luc Picard was born in the year 2305. From an early age, he wanted to join Starfleet but failed his first Starfleet Academy entrance exam. After finally getting in, Picard dedicated much of his time studying to pass his exams. That is until he explored his passion for archaeology.

As he rose through the ranks, fellow Starfleet officers saw him as an intelligent man with strong morals. He was great at debates and solving diplomatic issues, leaving most in peaceful resolutions. His English upbringing also led him to have a strong accent and a love for Earl Grey tea and Shakespeare. His authoritative figure and quick thinking have led to him being one of the greatest Starfleet commanders the series has ever seen. He has seen more of the stars than he ever imagined while encountering dozens of new aliens along the way.
