Personal History


Early Life (2364 - 2381)

Arith was born into a family of farmers whose land was outside the city of Janir on Bajor. Arith’s father, Xenon, inherited the land from his father who inherited it from his father, and so on and so forth. The land might have been ‘owned’ by them, but realistically it was the Cardassians who had owned it all through Arith’s life. He was born on stardate 236410.25, during the occupation of Bajor.

His father had met his mother at a very young age and they were soon to be married. They have three children; Arith’s older brother, Bion. Arith himself, and their younger sister Ligeia. They all lived on the farm in Janir under the rule of the Cardassians.

One afternoon Arith was following his brother, trying to get him to play with him. Much to his brother’s resentment. They eventually come to Qui’al Dam. This was a dam built in 2371. It caused massive problems for the family, cutting of a fresh stream of water which supplied the earth with the nutrition their crop need. It had catastrophic effects on the family, sending them into extreme poverty.

Arith’s hatred for the Cardassians grew each day. But his breaking point happened when he and his brother reached the Dam. Two Cardassian officers were patrolling the area. Bion decided to sneak past them and enter the dam’s main area. Thinking they were both out of harm’s way, as they were only playing around. Cardassian officers caught them, they tried to drown Bion as punishment as another officer teased Arith by going to drown him but stopping last minute.

After a few minutes, which seemed like years to Arith. They finally tossed his brother outside, dragging Arith a long with them. He was so sure he would die.

Soon came the aid of another Bajoran. This person was different however. He wasn’t wearing the Bajoran earing, an important symbol of their faith. Even though Arith noticed this, he did not mention it. This Bajoran was a doctor. He was able to help revive Bion. This was first of many moments were Arith begun to think of becoming a Doctor.

Arith never found out the man’s name. He did however leave his with one piece of information:

“If ever you should want help. Find the V’nal.”

This one sentence from a stranger, was going to change Arith’s life for ever.

A year later, Arith was helping his father try and harvest any crop they could make. The majority of the crop however was spoiled. They were getting poorer and poorer by the year. Arith’s mother had contracted a disease. It was life threatening. No one would help them. They were too poor to pay and no Cardassian would help a Bajoran. It wasn’t long before she had passed.

This sent Arith into a deep depression. He hated the Cardassians more than anything in the world, he just wanted them to die. His father had given up all together, they were just walking corpses at this stage. Arith’s brother tried his best to keep up the farm work, but it wasn’t helping anything. Their sister on the other hand, she was only 2 years old. Arith tried his best to take care of her, after all his father wouldn’t.

He couldn’t stay there anymore. He knew it was wrong but he ran away. Leaving his family behind, his brother to look after his sister and father. But he wasn’t leaving in vain. He was leaving to find this ‘V’nal’.


The V'nal (2381 - 2386)

He lived on the streets of Jo’Kalla for two months before he had gotten anywhere to finding them.

He met another boy, 18 years old. His name was Bufios Olath. He showed Arith true kindness, by offering up his home for him to stay. They had met when Arith tried to steal food from a stall in the city and was caught by a Cardassian tradesman. Olath helped him by getting him away. It wasn’t long before Arith and Olath realised their common interest. Riding Bajor or their enemy, the Cardassian. Olath had mentioned to Arith he had some friends with the same interest. It wasn’t long before Arith was being introduced to the V’nal.

They welcomed him greatly, but Arith had to prove his loyalty. After a few months of tasks, Arith was finally welcomed into the V’nal through initiation. Because him and Olath had come so close, it was with him this initiation was done.

The V’nal gathered and watched as Arith and Olath created a special bond, they cut deep wounds into each other’s hands and held them together until close to death. It was a symbol of loyalty and strength to be able to die for your cause. A bond was created between the two, powerful enough they felt as though they could feel each other’s emotions, hear each other’s thoughts. They were joined. After hours of laying on a cold stone floor in one of Bajor’s forgotten temples, slowly dying in each other’s embrace seemed almost euphoric to Arith. He wanted to die. He wanted to be with his mother.

Yet he had passed the initiation. They were soon helped by the doctors in the group, who closed their wounds and gave them the blood they had lost. To this day, the red stains of their blood rest on the floors of that temple. A reminder of the tragic relationship that had begun there.

Arith wanted to be trained as a medic. He was thought under the other doctors in the group and learnt a great big deal. He was a big part in the V’nal order for many more years. When he had just turned 23, almost 5 years later. Arith wanted to be part of one of the missions. The V’nal agreed as it would be a wise choice to have a medic involved at the time.

The person running the mission, just so happened to be Olath. He was now obsessed with the V’nal and a very well respected member. Arith was more obsessed with him.

The team made their way to Ilvia, a city with one of the finest Bajoran temples. It wasn’t until they had gotten there however that Arith realised it was day of the ‘Gratitude Festival’. Everyone was visiting the temples to celebrate. The team made their way to one of the temples, much to Arith’s confusion. Inside the Cardassians were ordering the people to leave, it didn’t take long for Arith to feel something was wrong. He tried speaking to Olath who then questioned Arith’s loyalty to their cause.

An argument started as Arith pleaded with him as there were many innocent Bajora in the temple. Arith learned from Olath what was happening, explosives were planted beneath the temple and were going to be detonated. Eventually they were spotted due to their argument and the Cardassians were starting to suspect them. Olath detonated the explosives soon after whispering into Arith’s near.

“Now we will die together. For Bajor.”

The explosives went off and the temple began to fall. People who were close to the explosives were already dead. Everything happened so fast. Arith found himself on the floor near what was the entrance. He hoisted himself up and tried to get out. Coming across a man on the way. He checked his pulse and found him alive. Stumbling out with the man, it wasn’t long before Cardassian and Bajoran officials showed up.

Arith felt responsible. However, the man he carried out turned out to be a Vedek, and important person in the Bajoran religion. He convinced Arith not to tell them, for he would suffer a faith worse than death. He tried to help Arith, bring him on a path towards salvation.

He soon made arrangements for Arith to leave Bajor after learning of his medical skills. Telling him to join the federation and to fight for their freedom the right way. Arith believed in this man, even though he still blamed himself for anything. He wondered if this could be the path of penance for him.


Starfleet (2386 - 2390)

After weeks of getting to Federation Space. Arith made way to Earth in the Sol system. There he joined Star Fleet Academy. He kept to himself most the time, not really making any friends as he was noticeably different and from Bajor. It was weird for him however, it had been years and years since he had lived in such luxury (in his eyes anyway). For a while he resented his choice. It didn’t feel like he was being punished. Although he soon came to realise that finding penance and being punished were two different things, and so he finished at the academy and joined the USS Centris-A for his year training aboard a ship. He was reserved and distant from his fellow crew members.

However, the commanding officer pointed out that this could be fatal. Team work was something a doctor needs to be involved in greatly, even with his earlier experience. He still struggled with this ‘new’ way around medicine. He felt like quitting. But it was as if someone spoke to him, in his dreams. His mother, he hoped. The voice convinced him to stay with Starfleet, and he also decided to follow his religious path again and get reconnected with his spirituality.

He hadn’t worn his Bajoran earing since the explosion. He renounced is faith and he didn’t feel worthy to wear it. Now he wanted to find that path again, and continue to be a doctor. He wanted to save lives, like the ones he felt he had taken from the world and maybe he could save someone else’s mother, like no one did for him.


The USS Mercury (2390 - Present)

He finished his training and graduated from the Academy. He contemplated going back to Bajor. Finding his family, if they were still alive that was. But he didn’t feel ready yet, he still had much to do on his path. So he stayed with Starfleet and was instantly assigned to the USS Mercury, where his life would begin yet again. Like it did in that temple almost 10 years ago.

Personality

Strengths and Weaknesses

Chris is a very approachable and friendly person, even on his bad days. He rarely even has those. He seems to put his work before others, maybe even himself. He sometimes gets horrible sleep but that's not all because of his work. Chris suffers from terrible nightmares. But there a bit more than just a 'nightmare' it's always the same kind. There's something chasing him, scaring him so much. In the end it doesn't end well and Chris wakes up screaming (to his room mates dismay) feeling that every single detail was real. He never went to anyone about this yet. He went on Shore Leave to see if it would help it, but it only seemed to keeping it hidden, for awhile at least.

Quarters

He can sometimes be over emotional over the empathic abilities he has. The more tired he is, the harder it hits him. He seems like a normal, confident person but he has many insecurities. Some of which make him wonder why he is even a member of Starfleet in the first place. He feels comfortable in the presence of other doctors. Or even just being in Sickbay. He hates large groups, because he can sometimes get paranoid. He would go out though if it meant making more friends, or even just enjoying the company of his co-workers.
