Background

• Tal grew up the only Andorian on the primative world of Ten-nok VII amid constantly waring city states. His training to be a warrior was harsh, brutal and violent. His only memories are of always living in the training barracks. Alone, an outsider, the stranger, with no friends, constant fights to survive and death an every day possibility.

• Ten-nokians were as different from him as you could get. They had a dark crimson skin, were on average about 5'8", stocky with black hair and black eyes.

• A Tellerite freighter that had drifted off course did a routine scan of the planet to see if it might be a possible trading location. It was not but they did detect a single Andorian life sign. Since that was against the Prime Directive they waited till he was alone and beamed him aboard.

• They took him to Andor where he saw others of his race for the first time. It took a while for them to teach him to speak Andorian and Federation.
