Lieutenant [[Sanara Pran]] is the {{age|235|01|07}}-year old '''Acting Chief Security Officer''' of the [[USS Columbia]]. Prior to her current role she served aboard a number of Starfleet vessels such as the [[USS Blackwell]] as well several years aboard [[StarBase 118]]. Pran's appointment to the role of Acting Security Chief was controversial aboard the ''Columbia'' as she actively did not want the position and only agreed on the condition of it being temporary.
Hello everybody! My name is Mikey and I am the writer of [[Etan Iljor]]. I have been a member of [[UFOP: StarBase 118]] for the past eight years. In that time I have also played  [[Theo Whittaker]] and [[Arlo Thornton]]. As Whittaker, I was the Commanding Officer of the [[USS Columbia]] for eighteen months (or thereabouts). I have simmed aboard the aforementioned Columbia as well as [[StarBase 118 Ops]], [[Andaris Task Force]], [[USS Gorkon]], [[USS Resolution]] and [[USS Excalibur-A]]. I was the winner of the 2398 Trivia Chat Contest and one of the question masters for the 2399 contest.


The oldest of five children born to Horun and Yeseem Pran, Sanara was born on Stardate 235501.07 at a medical facility in the Trill capital of Gheryzan. Her father owned a small café in the city prior to his retirement and her mother is a seamstress. She is the only member of her immediate family to join Starfleet, with her siblings all seeking employment in the civilian sector.  
I have been a Star Trek fan since I was 8 years old. My favourite series has fluctuated over time but right now, I would probably say that ''Deep Space 9'' and then ''Discovery'' are the one's that I return to the most. ''The Undiscovered Country'' is without a doubt my favourite of the Trek movies; Kira and Emperor Georgiou are my favourite canon characters. I also avidly read Star Trek novels in my spare time.

When I am not living my Star Trek fantasy, I am a Marketing Copywriter for a major luxury fashion brand and I also review high-fashion collections for an independent fashion magazine and digital outlet. I have a BA (Hons) in International Fashion Business and I recently completed a post-graduate Masters Degree in Fashion Communications. My favourite designer is the late Dame Vivienne Westwood. Outside of work, I am a passionate fan of pop music, RuPaul's Drag Race and Pokémon.

* '''Hair''': Blonde
* '''Eyes''': Grey
* '''Build''': Slim

===Tone/Voice===
Sanara has a slightly deeper than usual voice for a female Trill. Some might also describe her voice as having a sassy quality to it, as though she is being sarcastic (even though she is not). Though she is careful what she says on duty and in a court of law, she is rather infamous for her inability to think before she speaks when ''off-duty''. When anxious she has a tendency to ramble on until somebody stops her- and sometimes it might take two or three attempts! She has a dry sense of humour that some people not understand. She is an assertive and direct leader, occasionally lacking politeness, but she never the less engenders the trust of her subordinates. When faced with threats to lives of the crew she is sworn to protect, she is no holds barred and will go to any lengths to do her job to the best of her ability.
 
===Footwear===
Sanara is well known for her intensive dislike of Starfleet issue footwear, which she finds tight on her feet and 'clumpy'. She much prefers to discharge her duties in specially modified high heels that are manufactured to conform to Starfleet issue guidelines. Much to the bafflement of almost everybody around her, Sanara is able to run quicker in heels than she is in boots.
 
{{Heading|Personal Life|Gold}}
===Clothing===
When off duty, Sanara can still often be found in her Starfleet uniform and it is rare to see her out of it. This is because she feels that she is always on stand-by given the often dangerous nature of the ''Columbia'''s assignments. On the rare occasion that she ''does'' don something other than her uniform, she reveals a surprisingly feminine taste in clothes and has a number of elegant dress-robes for special occasions. She favours Vulcan designers which stems from both her love of Vulcan culture in general and the fact that she dislikes tight fitting garments. Style is not paramount to Sanara, but instead she prefers comfort.
 
===Quarters===
* '''[[USS Columbia]]''': Deck 5, Senior Officer's Quarters
* '''[[USS Blackwell]]''': Deck 9, Junior Officer's Quarters
* '''[[StarBase 118]]''': T'Hana Complex, Shi'Kahr District, [[StarBase 118 Commercial Sector]].
 
===Personal Effects===
 
* '''A keethera''': A Vulcan meditation aide given to Sanara by her parents on her 15th birthday thanks to her love of Vulcan culture. She uses this every morning to mentally prepare herself for the day ahead and every night to process the events of the day. She keeps it safe in a box underneath her bed and rarely shows it to anybody.
 
* '''An IDIC mandala''': Another present from her parents upon her 15th birthday. This has followed Sanara across the quadrant and reminds her to centre herself before leaving her quarters or going to sleep.
 
* '''An Alvinian cactus''': Sanara has had this since she was an 8 year old girl. Although Alvinian cacti are renowned for living for centuries, she is still impressed with herself that she has managed not to kill it after almost three decades. Of course, she doesn't seem to realise that the reason for it's "longevity" is because she doesn't water it very often.
 
===Diet===
* '''Restrictions''': Sanara is a vegetarian and does not consume animal meat of fish. She favours salads although she is allergic to some species of grain (such as quadrotriticale) and therefore much carefully watch what she eats, especially if not eating replicated food. She is also mildly allergic to some Terran nuts but is prescribed medication to allow her to consume them as she finds them delicious.
* '''Coffee''': Sanara is not fond of human coffee finding that it lacks flavour. Her caffeinated beverage of choice is ''raktajino''.
* '''Tea''': Darjeeling and a Betazoid blend known as ''vrixx''.
* '''Alcohol''': Sanara is tee-total and has not consumed alcohol in almost 20 years.
* '''Favourite Meal''': Matopin rock fungi tossed on a bed of tartoc with a side of baldric vinegar.
 
===Hobbies & Interests===
* '''Hobbies''':
** Meditation
** Vulcan literature
** Interior design
** 22nd Bajoran music
** Khobeerian art.
* '''Favourite Colour''': Fuchsia
 
Amongst her colleagues on the ''Columbia'', Sanara is well known for her love of Vulcan culture and spirituality and she has a number of holo-programs featuring the temples of Mount Seleya which she uses to meditate in addition to her keethera and IDIC mandala. On [[StarBase 118]], this interest in Vulcan culture led her to have a reputation for being eccentric and 'odd', especially when she moved to the Shi'Kahr Sector soon after her arrival.
 
She is also known for her 'eclectic' taste in interior design which may find horrendous. Her old apartment on [[StarBase 118]] was a strange mish-mash of Vulcan minimalism, Bajoran folk music playing through speakers and overstuffed Khobeerian furniture which deterred many visitors to her abode.
 
===Family===
* '''Spouse''': None.
* '''Significant Other''': None
* '''Children''': None.
* '''Parents''':
** '''Mother''': ''Yeseem Pran'', dressmaker
** '''Father''': ''Horun Pran'', retired café owner
* '''Siblings''':
** '''Brothers''':
*** ''Nerzem Pran'' (Artist, Cor Caoli IX) (Younger)
*** ''Dadro Pran'' (Sports Caster, Cestus III) (Younger)
*** ''Harvir Pran'' (School Teacher, Trill) (Younger)
** '''Sisters''':
*** ''Bonhi Pran'' (Travel Writer, Trill) (Younger)

===Childhood & Teenage Years===
Sanara Pran was born on Stardate 235501.07 at Gheryzan City Hospital on Trill to Yaseem and Horun Pran- a dressmaker and cafe owner respectively. She was to be the oldest of five children. From an early age she would be sent for holidays to her maternal grandmother's cabins in the Jolren Mountains on Trill's southern continent. Many years later, Sanara would describe the cabin as "the most perfect place in the universe". As a young girl she wanted to follow in her beloved father's footsteps and own a café. She also assisted her mother with her dressmaking business although she did not particularly care for it, finding it extremely difficult to get to grips with manual and automated sewing (her mother absolutely hated replicated clothing).
 
Following a school expedition to Vulcan as a 13 year old, Sanara became extremely fascinated by Vulcan culture which persists to this day. As she grew older, she wanted to move to Vulcan to study at the Vulcan Science Academy although she was refused a place when she was 16. A few months later, she attended a seminar at her secondary school given by Starfleet recruiters and found herself drawn to the idea of serving in the organisation. After some initial concern from her parents, they allowed her to enrol and she was assigned to the Relva VII satellite campus where she studied for a Criminology Major and a Forensic Pathology major after showing an aptitude for law and forensic subjects at school.

About Me

Hello everybody! My name is Mikey and I am the writer of Etan Iljor. I have been a member of UFOP: StarBase 118 for the past eight years. In that time I have also played Theo Whittaker and Arlo Thornton. As Whittaker, I was the Commanding Officer of the USS Columbia for eighteen months (or thereabouts). I have simmed aboard the aforementioned Columbia as well as StarBase 118 Ops, Andaris Task Force, USS Gorkon, USS Resolution and USS Excalibur-A. I was the winner of the 2398 Trivia Chat Contest and one of the question masters for the 2399 contest.

I have been a Star Trek fan since I was 8 years old. My favourite series has fluctuated over time but right now, I would probably say that Deep Space 9 and then Discovery are the one's that I return to the most. The Undiscovered Country is without a doubt my favourite of the Trek movies; Kira and Emperor Georgiou are my favourite canon characters. I also avidly read Star Trek novels in my spare time.

When I am not living my Star Trek fantasy, I am a Marketing Copywriter for a major luxury fashion brand and I also review high-fashion collections for an independent fashion magazine and digital outlet. I have a BA (Hons) in International Fashion Business and I recently completed a post-graduate Masters Degree in Fashion Communications. My favourite designer is the late Dame Vivienne Westwood. Outside of work, I am a passionate fan of pop music, RuPaul's Drag Race and Pokémon.

Five years ago I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, although I now identify as autistic. I am a passionate advocator of autism as a difference (as opposed to a disability).

I currently live in England with my fiancé of six years.
