Relationships

Kiden Lahr	A Xenobiologist, Kiden Lahr was always fascinated in the dual nature of his people, helping the Trill Science Academy to study the joining his entire life. Despite his interest in biology, specifically the symbiosis, Kiden was very much like his daughter in that he never actually had any interest in being a host. Understanding this, he was never disappointed in her for not attempting an application. His only wish for his often wayward daughter was that she finally did find a passion in life - a thing that she felt was worth her pursuit. The two are extremely close, and keep in regular contact, with Kiden constantly peppering his daughter with questions about the new lifeforms she encounters in Starfleet
Illario Gal	When Chana was only two years old, her mother died from a strange macrovirus which claimed the lives of a few thousand on Trill. As much as Chana loves her father, the lack of a female role model in her life contributed to some of her listlessness in her younger years. Aside from pictures and stories, Chana has no memories of her mother.

Personal History

Since the dual nature of certain Trill first became commonly known, most other species have only associated them with their symbiosis. However, at most a few hundred Trill are joined each year. While the application process for the joining is competitive, and does draw a great deal of interest, there are hundreds of thousands of Trill who have no interest in hosting a symbiote. Chana Lahr has always been one of those - mainly because the shy young Trill woman could barely handle sharing even some of her thoughts and feelings with those around her. The idea of having to share every part of herself, so completely, with any other being was simply unimaginable. So while some of her friends studied science and culture from grade school, preparing for the selection process as best they could, Lahr simply drifted through her younger years without much focus. At the age of fifteen, on a class trip to the Trill Science Academy, most of Lahr's class was busy engrossing themselves in various aspects of symbiote history, even if they weren't interested in the joining themselves. Lahr, however, found an early draft of the schematics for the first Trill warp drive and immediately found her first true obsession. Unfortunately for Lahr, she discovered her life's passion a little too late, and didn't have an overly impressive resume. As such, her first application to Starfleet Academy was rejected. A year later, at the age of nineteen, Lahr transmitted an application to enter Starfleet as enlisted personnel ... she left home for training within the month. After a relatively successful training cycle, where she managed to focus most of her efforts in applied engineering, Lahr graduated and received her first posting: Engineering Specialist, USS Victory.
