	History

Early Life

Bem, his father, and Tira, his mother.

Fren, his brother.

Kolir, his stepfather.

Pholin, studying for the DSA.

Born in Iyax, Denobula, to Bem (99) and Tira (103); he spent his early childhood helping his parents on his grandfather's farm, who passed away just before Pholin was born. He felt free running and playing on the farm. When Pholin was four years old his brother Fren (53) was born. He learned how to be a good brother and played with him on the farm fields. Three years after Fren was born, their father went back to work for the Denobulan Marine, like he did before his children were born. Pholin was then only seven and did not understand why he would do that, and began to develop a grudge for the Marine.

Although Pholin loved his father, he disagreed with him most of the time. Whether it was about his friends or his grades, his father always had something to complain. Pholin was more close to his mother since he felt more like her. They were both open and always ready to talk; they also always had a smile on their face. Pholin - even to this day - did not understand the relationship between his parents; they never agreed on anything. Where Pholin was more drawn to his mother, Fren was closer to his father. He was almost as conservative and grumpy as his dad. He had already decided to join the Marine when he was only eight years old.

He performed dexterous in school and made some good friends, some still friends with him to this day. He was interested in a lot of topics in school to the surprise of his parents. He would talk for hours about his new science project, while his mom would talk about her adventures in the Marine. The two brothers would often listen to stories of their mom while sitting near the fireplace, as it would get very cold in winter. Every summer, their father would come back. As Pholin got older, he could feel the atmosphere worsen as his father would be back. Grumpy from the morning to night, Pholin would try to amuse him with a joke, but even that didn't work. He would later learn from his mother that his father was depressed during Pholin's childhood since his father had died.

Pholin's parents had always wanted him to join the Marine too, but during his puberty, he expressed that he wasn't planning on joining the Marine. Both his parents disagreed when he decided not to apply for the marine after his studies, it took him two years to convince his parents it was what he wanted. It was a stressful time for him since he had no one to support his decision and sometimes questioned if this even was the thing he wanted. Even his own brother turned against him, as he did plan on joining the Marine. Luckily Pholin could talk to his mother's second husband, Kolir (94), who stood up for him. He lived near Pholin and he could always go to Kolir if he was upset.

	Relationships

Bem, his father, and Tira, his mother.

Parents

Pholin's father is called Bem, now 99 years old. Although Pholin loved his father, he disagreed with him most of the time. Whether it was about his friends or his career choices, his father always had something to complain. He always was either at work or behind his newspaper. Pholin had always looked up to his dad, but once he went through puberty, he found there was nothing to look up to. Bem was a marine admiral; he had been for almost twenty. The thing he liked most about his dad was his humor: dry and dirty.

His mother is called Tira, born 103 years ago. Pholin was more close to his mother since he felt more like her. They were both open and always ready to talk; they also always had a smile on their face. Pholin - even to this day - does not understand the relationship between his parents; they never agreed on anything. That was another reason he was closer to his mom, whenever his dad disagreed with him, his mom agreed. She also works for the marine and is the medical officer about her ship.

Both his parents disagreed when he decided not to apply for the marine after his studies, It took him two years to convince his parents it was what he wanted. It was a stressful time for him since he had no one to support his decision and sometimes questioned if this even was the thing he wanted. When he decided to join Starfleet Academy, he didn't need to try to convince them. His parents had been anti-federation since Denobula applied to join the Federation. Becoming the face of it voluntarily, that was just unacceptable. He has now not spoken to his parents for four and a half years.

Fren, his brother.

Brother

His smaller brother is called Fren, just 53 years old. Where Pholin was more drawn to his mother, Fren was closer to his father. He was almost as conservative and grumpy as his dad. During their childhood, they liked and played with each other a lot. They were good friends until Pholin's decision not to go into the marine, which turned him against Pholin. Fren joined the Marine just like their parents did and didn't speak with him during his stay on Bajor. And where Pholin's parents were happy when he returned to Denobula, Fren was not. He distanced himself from Pholin and sometimes plain ignored him.

Things have changed for the better when Pholin applied for the Academy. Fren had felt bored in the Marine for a couple of years and Pholin making a life change encouraged him to do to. He has not yet told their parents, but Fren is planning on leaving the Marine.
