David Ross Forester was a human Starfleet junior officer, serving in the late 23rd century. During his days at Starfleet Academy, he led a bridge simulation cadet group, acting as its captain. His group included a number of talented cadets, including Sturek and Vanda M'Giia, among others. (TOS video game: Starfleet Academy)

Captain of the Enterprise-AEdit

After his graduation in 2290, Starfleet decided to give him a chance to test the Meclanti theory about Sturek and him. For this mission, he and his entire former training crew from the Academy were temporarily assigned to the USS Enterprise-A. While patrolling the Klingon Neutral Zone with the USS Truong, the Meclanti destroyed the Truong near the colony of Javik VI. After the Meclanti had started to attack Kurat I, (which was the site of a hospital under the command of Commander Vor, inside the Klingon Empire), Forester stopped the attack by mimicking them and by using diplomacy. He and his crew were also able to stop the Klingons from destroying the Kurat sun, which could have resulted in the destruction of the entire Kurat System - and possibly the Meclanti with the Enterprise. As a result, the cybernetic program was accelerated by decades. (TOS video game: Starfleet Academy)

In order to get the command of Enterprise-A, and fly to the Meclanti mission, the player has to make the right decisions; so that the grades of Forester and his crew are 75% or above. And, he/she has to decide to help Sturek with the Meclanti simulations. If that doesn't happen, Forester gets a position as helm for the USS Alexandria.
