Biography:Born to Captain Grant and Doctor Sarah McClelland in the sickbay of the Charles McClelland, a Darien Colony merchant ship. Miles' mother died in child birth. Miles spent most of his early years in the ship's nursery until his father remarried.
The nursery, of course, makes several arrangements for the children in their care to have field trips. But on a trip to the zoo, when they realized that Miles (4) had vanished from his stroller, they were shocked to see him curled up beside a female Orithian Saber Cat, who protected him from the other saber cats.
After that rescue, young Miles was forbidden from leaving the ship.
When Galadenella was discovered, an artificial planet-ship that was basically worlds stacked like layers in a cake, the Charles McClelland was contracted by the Federation to bring trade goods from Darien Colony. Miles (10) pleaded with his father, who relented and allowed the boy to come down to the first inhabitable layer to meet the Galadenellans.
However, a protest by some of the locals became a riot, and Miles was one of several hostages taken that day by a revolutionary group, the Eäplèspth Front. When an attempt was made to rescue the hostages, the Eäplèspthans went underground - or more correctly down a few layers to another of their stacked worlds.
Eventually, Miles and the other hostages came to the notice of one of the ship's nobles, TekLord Chzo, who decided to take the boy in while negotiatons with the Federation was ongoing. The TekLord was trying to work out the lost technology of Galadenellans, and found the boy's inquisiveness and mechanical aptitude most rewarding.
When an ancient lab was discovered in a mezzanine layer between two world layers, TekLord Chzo took young Miles (15) with him to explore it. They found a console and an oversized chair, with long cabinets following it with workstations of some sort. Miles was sitting in the chair when a power spike hit the mezzanine grid, activating the equipment.
He had a vague realization that someone was screaming before he blacked out.
He awoke to an argument between Chzo and Adrley, a Galadenella translator who was part of the native negotiators. The two of them didn't get along well, Adrley was angry at Miles for how close he was to Chzo. The TekLord wanted Adrley to sneak Miles up to the negotiating table and turn the unconscious boy over to the Federation so his own doctors could treat him, but the translator was concerned what would happen if they delivered a comatose boy to them.
Both were relieved that Miles was awake again, but he had no memories of what had happened, which concerned the both of them greatly. But before Chzo could act, a Eäplèspth Front assassin shot the teklord. Adrley shot the assassin, then dragged the boy out. She got him up to the "topside" layer and into the hands of an independent civilian trader, Charles Murphy, ordering him to get Miles back to his people before the Eäplèspth Front could send anyone else. She then kissed him, then disappeared into one of the many surface shafts.
Murphy was alone on his ship aside from his robots, and actually desperate for conversation. To help pass the time, he taught the boy how to shoot a phaser, and to a lesser attempt, how to use a fencing foil.
Arriving on Darien, he had to wait a few weeks for his father's ship to arrive - and discovered he was half brother to four brothers and sisters. Something about the whole thing disturbed him, and some months later, when he turned 17, he joined Star Fleet as an enlisted man. It was in boot camp they discovered his mind block. While they had some concerns, there didn't seem to be anything physically wrong with him, so it was decided to let him continue. He rose to Engineer 2nd Class, most of his other duties were maintaining the shuttlecrafts and repairing small equipment.
After his four year hitch, he returned to Darien Colony, grew restless, and decided to try for Star Fleet Academy a year later.
