Personal History

Meng Tian was born Arshak and Nshan on the planet Marlonia in the province of J'latoun. Meng's parents, both professors at the Marlonian Institute of Technology, encouraged Meng at a a young age to explore all that was around him. All Kerelians from a young age study music and are well versed in most of the galaxies genre. Meng and his brother were no different. Ironically, Kerelian culture discourages creation of new music styles and his parents, Kerelian fundamentalist, adhered to this philosophy. Meng was not content to just study the music styles of others. He wanted to express his creativity and create unique music styles . So at the age of sixteen Meng applied to and was accepted to the the Aldebaran School of Music.

Meng was a master of many martial arts and was fascinated with Klingon culture. It was only natural that he mastered their combat styles to include the use of the Bat'leth. His talented use of the fearsome blade was noticed by a Klingon student while on Aldebaran and subsequently was the first Kerelian to be invited to the annual Bat'leth competition on Forcas III. He finished the competition with many injuries but was able to achieve Junior Champion Standing.

After his graduation the young Kerelian was restless and wanted to see more of the Galaxy. He submitted his application for Star Fleet Academy and was accepted, and entered on Stardate 2389. An exceptional cadet, Meng did have a few run ins with the Dean of Students for tardiness. Although not proven, Meng's taste for Aldebaran Whiskey and late nights with other "attractions" in the San Francisco area might have been the cause.

Meng is a very upbeat, glass is half full, type of Cadet. The cadet has an eidetic memory and can recall any event or fact that he has ever been exposed to. This ability along with his natural superior Kerelian hearing has graced Meng with the fluency of 7 Federation languages. Meng is interested in being assigned to Tactical, Science, or a most sought after Star Fleet Intelligence posting.
