== Personality ==
Yogan Yalu's personality is a complex amalgam of personalities–that of his former unjoined self, Yogan Verso; that of Yalu, the symbiont to which he is Joined; and those of the symbiont's previous hosts.  Like all Joined Trill, Yogan underwent years of training to ensure that, once Joined, the symbiont would complement, not overwhelm his own personality.
 
Yogan is an innate idealist, and possesses a nearly inexhaustible optimism.  His belief that all people are inherently good occasionally causes conflict in his professional life; he struggles to understand why good people suffer. He dislikes the constraint of arbitrary rules, and tends to support creative thinking and the rights of others to do as they please.  He tends to give the benefit of the doubt whenever possible.  Yogan struggles to accept challenges and criticisms as opportunities to better himself; rather, he can take them personally and become mired in self-doubt.  Yogan wants to be liked, and avoids conflict if he can, preferring to adjust himself rather than risk confrontation with another person.
 
Since joining, Yogan's symbiont and former hosts have influenced his personality, creating a more extraverted, pragmatic, and social individual, but also one prone to impulsive decisions, cynicism, and a flair for the dramatic.  He is proud to have been selected for joining, and he thinks often about how his memories and experiences will influence Yalu's future hosts.  He also wonders whether he measures up to his predecessors.
 
== Psychological profile ==
* '''Temperament:'''  Positive, balanced; not prone to wild mood swings or extreme emotions
* '''Quarters:'''  Room 04-0302, not super personalized
* '''Favorite place:'''
* '''Habits:''' Bites his lip when deep in thought; prefers to refer to fellow officers by rank instead of name or honorific; Mishears things often

* '''Preferred foods:'''  Cheeseburgers
* '''Preferred drinks:'''  Yogan Yalu seldom drinks alcohol.  Enjoys raktajino, glurch, and kobheerian cola
* '''Fears:''' Looking stupid in front of people.
* '''Ambitions and goals:'''
* '''Achievements:''' Skilled pilot, Doctor of Medicine, lovable goof

==== Dislikes ====
* Snarky hologram characters
* Terran golf
 
=== Betazoid psychodramas ===
Yogan Yalu is an enthusiastic fan of a particular genre of Betazoid literature, the psychodrama.  He reads them voraciously and is always looking for a new one.  He also regularly updates his ''FedReads'' profile with the books he is currently reading, has recently completed, or wishes to read:
* '''''Embers Within Ashes'' by Levralet Izun (2395):''' The winner of the 2396 Rixx Prize for Fiction contains sharp prose and a carefully crafted plot.  Kept me guessing right up until the end. ♦♦♦♦♦ [Completed 239709]<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-resolution/c/BL0OC0DzOwA/m/J9GH67p_CAAJ SIM: JP Ens Yogan Yalu & Ens Mirkl Zanti — Join me for a chat, Part 1]</ref>

== Personal history ==
: ''See [[/Biography|Biography of Yogan Yalu]]''
 
=== Yalu ===
: ''See  [[Yalu (symbiont)]]''
'''Yalu''' is a symbiont–a sentient vermiform lifeform–who has lived symbiotically inside hosts of the humanoid Trill species.  Yalu was born in the Caves of Mak'ala on the Trill homeworld in 2030, and was Joined to a host for the first time in 2140.  The joining of Yalu to Yogan Verso in 2392 created a new, unique individual–Yogan Yalu.  Yalu's eighth humanoid host, Yogan, carries the memories of Yalu's seven previous hosts, who include a subspace radio operator, a farmer and artisan weaver, a famous actress, and a member of the Trill Senate.

=== 2393–2397 ===
:
 
Yalu's Starfleet career began on Stardate 239307.01, when he entered Starfleet Medical Academy in San Francisco at the rank of Cadet 4th class.  During his first year, he excelled in medical ethics, clinical fundamentals, and immunology, but struggled with genetics.  Outside of his medical studies, he continued his flight training, earning high marks in starship navigation.
 
On Stardate 239407.01, Yalu began his second year of medical studies at the rank of Cadet 3rd class.  During this year, he succeeded in the subjects of medical and life support systems and diagnosis, but had his biggest professional failures as well, earning a D+ in non-humanoid surgery, the lowest mark of his Academy career.  He concluded his flight training during this year, receiving the equivalent of an undergraduate minor in navigation.
 
Yalu's final two years at Starfleet Academy were largely successful, although he continued to struggle in surgical classes.  He graduated from the Academy on Stardate 239706.07, with a Level 5 pilot's qualification, an M.D., and a commission at the rank of Ensign.
 
=== 2397 ===
Yalu graduated from Starfleet Academy in June and was posted to the {{USS|Atlantis}} as a medical officer.  Five weeks later, he was transferred to the {{USS|Resolution}}–which was re-entering active service–as a helm officer.  In July, ''Resolution'' encountered the derelict {{USS|Unity}}, whose computer systems had been commandeered by a space-dwelling lifeform.  In September, ''Resolution'' visited [[Da'al]], a non-aligned planet in the Borderlands, where the crew was instrumental in preventing a coup d'état.  In December, ''Resolution'' was searching for a missing freighter in the [[Celendi Nebula]] when they were transported more than 200,000 years into the future.


Commodores, please introduce yourselves and tell us which ship/installation you command.
In 2397, Yalu was awarded four service ribbons. He was also promoted from Ensign to Lieutenant JG on Stardate 239712.08.

==Question: Finding inspiration==
=== 2398 ===
{| class="wikitable"
The year 2398 began with the {{USS|Resolution}} still in the far future, attempting to rescue the crew of the freighter ''Andalucia'' from enslavement at the hands of the [[Sau]].  They succeeded in rescuing a large number of them, but Yalu was haunted by the fact that some were left behind.  Upon their return to the present, Yalu began preparing to undertake ''zhian'tara'', the Trill Rite of Closure, and invited several of his crewmates to participate in the ritual with him.  In February, ''Resolution'' attempted to negotiate a peace agreement between the Nascaik and the Thama, who both claimed Vionus IV as part of their sovereign territory.  After a terrorist attack nearly destroyed the ship, the crew successfully concluded the peace treaty between the surviving diplomatic representatives.

| Thank you, Commodores, and thank you for taking time out to be here today.


Now, let's get to the questions. First up, we have a question from @FltAdml. Wolf
In April, Yalu returned to Trill with four of his crewmates, and [[Yogan_Yalu/Zhian%27tara|completed his ''zhian'tara'']].  The following month, when ''Resolution'' was sent into the [[Briar Patch]] to search for a missing Starfleet science ship, they crash landed on a planet inhabited by an advanced form of non-corporeal life, whose manipulation of energy caused a disruption in the relationship between Yogan (host) and Yalu (symbiont).  The illness persisted for several months thereafter. In July, Yalu, along with the rest of ''Resolution'''s crew, was trapped in a time loop at the hands of a Q.


How do you stay inspired with writing after all these years as a CO!
In September and October, while the {{USS|Resolution}} was temporarily under the command of [[Genkos Adea]], Yalu served as acting first officer.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-resolution/c/xqSOs9o9IEY/m/XYyXJ1T5BAAJ SIM: JP LtCmdr Genkos Adea & LtCmdr Yogan Yalu — Now you've done it]</ref>

| For me staying inspired comes from two things.  One is - I've been a DM/ST/CO/game master for many years.  since 1996.  This includes over 15 years of online chat STing and over twenty years of simming.  So part of it is I love storytelling.  It's one of my passions.


The second is collaboration.  Telling all those stories yourself is hard but bouncing ideas off of others, giving them the agency to write their own ideas and building as a group keeps momentum going long term.  
In 2398, Yalu was awarded 7 service ribbons. He was also promoted from Lieutenant JG to Lieutenant on Stardate 239805.04, and from Lieutenant to Lt. Commander on Stardate 239809.15.

| Yeah, +1 to what Marissa & Jamie wrote about collabing. BUT I'm also going to add in that when you're around for a long time (a long, long, long time), it's also important to be flexible, because the folks around you change a lot. even if you have, say, a really reliable simmer who sticks around for a couple of years -- which is itself a LONG time -- it's important that you're able to craft stories with and around everyone, before, during, and after that person's here and gone

|I've been a roleplayer since I was 8.. there are always stories in my mind and coming online when I was 18 to start RP with people across the country at first and then across the world just fueled that to the brim and lets it run over 😄


My inspiration comes from the community, the crew, the stories they write, their biographies, the chat even that comes up with the funnest ideas based on one little word at times and I also may be inspired by books and TV and all that but he biggest part is the excitement to write the stories with people who are just awesome and the surprise of seeing where they will go because the collaborative nature always brings surprises 🙂 It just doesn't get boring.

|For me, it’s three things:


1) my crew is constantly changing: new members, returning members, members with new ideas for missions and story arcs for their characters. So there’s always something new—a new challenge, a new story possibility, character relationship—to explore.
=== 2400 ===
On SD 240007.10, Yalu was promoted to first officer of the {{USS|Artemis|A}}.


2) I think the key to longevity in the game is to make sure you still have your own stories to tell. I’ve played seven or eight PCs I think at this point, Rahman for the longest, but once I was happy with her central story being told, I was ready to try a new character and new story to tell. I think if you start to lose inspiration or can’t think of more for your character, maybe that’s okay to just let them take a break from the spotlight (or give them a real conclusion)
== Service record ==


3) keep reading, watching, and otherwise consuming other great stories around you for inspiration

|I think it's a lot of things? Like Jamie says, your crew and the community are a huge font of inspiration--I think the Gorkonites can attest to the number of times an idle comment in ship chat has become a plot twist or even an entire mission, because it sparks ideas.
{{SR Dates|239607.01}}
 
But I think it's also partly knowing that a lot of time inspiration is something you make. There's a quote I love: "Serious writers write, inspired or not. Over time they discover that routine is a better friend than inspiration."

|What got me hooked on simming was when I joined a PbEM that is long since dead sim named "Liberty Fleet" where the admins had broken away from a different fleet that had a bunch of of restrictive rules and generally the CO's rules their ships with a tyrannical iron fist and created a small fleet based on the players having freedom to direct the story.  That was the first time I really felt like I clicked with a game and wanted to actively continue playing

|UFF that is a hard one because there are so many memories that now I come up with none LOL Well I think that it was coming from a hiatus of Roleplay, after having a bad experience in an RP i was with for almost 20 years and after 4 years of a break coming into SB118 and not really expecting that it would be as great as I remember RP (sorry lol).  And I was met with so much welcoming warm energy and support and boy they even gave me a mentor and it was the CO himself .. that I just knew this is a whole other level from the Rps I had been part of before. And I saw that even the ideas that in my old RPs would have been marked as "too wacky" had a place and were integrated with joy and received so well... I had a feeling then that I would stay for a longer time. And it didn't take too long that I couldn't imagine not being part of it any more 🙂

Fresh ensign Quinn Reynolds, simming on her first posting, and all the officers I was assigned with took a LOA at about the same time, while the rest of the crew were on a planet-based away team and couldn't get back to the ship.

So Captain Rhys brought his PNPC over and we spent an entire mission simming together in a desperate scramble to save the Triumphant from being destroyed in a subspace anomaly. Dodging hull breaches, explosions, and rigging a shuttle to take over the helm controls so we could fly the ship out of there.
{{Artemis Crew}}


I learnt so much on that one mission about how to sim, how to sim well, how to collaborate, how to share the spotlight. The CO made me feel welcomed, valued and fun to sim with, plus I got one of the best simmers in the fleet all to myself. 😂

|There are so many… and I can remember doing an “early ensign trope” where I put my character in life and death danger and ended it with an OOC note about how my character’s (Tenzin Zhou) fate is up to everyone else haha. Looking back I’m sure my first CO and her command staff must have rolled their eyes but they guided me through how to really get the most of this collaborative story telling.

And so that brings up one of my favorite early memories was a fleet blockbuster Operation Bright Star I believe (although I may be misremembering) where the bridge scene players were simming combat and one of them mentioned that artificial gravity was knocked out on some decks. Well, being a medical officer at the time in sickbay I used that in our sickbay scene where we lost gravity and everyone else there played along. Seeing how one end of the story can affect the other helped kindle my love of this game

|ooooh what a good question! this isn't super specific, but I did have a really supportive CO early on (Robin Phoenix if anyone wants to jump into the wiki archives) who supported the side plots that I wanted to introduce. it ended up pivoting one whole mission in a kind of James-Bond-esque time travel direction, which was a complete 180 from what it had been, and we all just kinda ran with it. I'd been around for a few missions by that point but had never done any kind of RPG before, and it was the first time I really felt like I could have a major impact on where the mission went. also, Fred (who played Robin Phoenix) was super supportive and vocal about that, and very much influenced my CO style

Yogan Yalu (né Verso, born 15 April 2362, age 39) is a male Joined Trill officer in the Federation Starfleet, currently holding the rank of lieutenant commander and serving as first officer aboard the USS Artemis-A.

Personality

Yogan Yalu's personality is a complex amalgam of personalities–that of his former unjoined self, Yogan Verso; that of Yalu, the symbiont to which he is Joined; and those of the symbiont's previous hosts. Like all Joined Trill, Yogan underwent years of training to ensure that, once Joined, the symbiont would complement, not overwhelm his own personality.

Yogan is an innate idealist, and possesses a nearly inexhaustible optimism. His belief that all people are inherently good occasionally causes conflict in his professional life; he struggles to understand why good people suffer. He dislikes the constraint of arbitrary rules, and tends to support creative thinking and the rights of others to do as they please. He tends to give the benefit of the doubt whenever possible. Yogan struggles to accept challenges and criticisms as opportunities to better himself; rather, he can take them personally and become mired in self-doubt. Yogan wants to be liked, and avoids conflict if he can, preferring to adjust himself rather than risk confrontation with another person.

Since joining, Yogan's symbiont and former hosts have influenced his personality, creating a more extraverted, pragmatic, and social individual, but also one prone to impulsive decisions, cynicism, and a flair for the dramatic. He is proud to have been selected for joining, and he thinks often about how his memories and experiences will influence Yalu's future hosts. He also wonders whether he measures up to his predecessors.

Psychological profile

  • Temperament: Positive, balanced; not prone to wild mood swings or extreme emotions
  • Quarters: Room 04-0302, not super personalized
  • Favorite place:
  • Habits: Bites his lip when deep in thought; prefers to refer to fellow officers by rank instead of name or honorific; Mishears things often

Betazoid psychodramas

Yogan Yalu is an enthusiastic fan of a particular genre of Betazoid literature, the psychodrama. He reads them voraciously and is always looking for a new one. He also regularly updates his FedReads profile with the books he is currently reading, has recently completed, or wishes to read:

  • Embers Within Ashes by Levralet Izun (2395): The winner of the 2396 Rixx Prize for Fiction contains sharp prose and a carefully crafted plot. Kept me guessing right up until the end. ♦♦♦♦♦ [Completed 239709][9]
  • Thoughtless Winter by Levralet Izun (2396): The sequel to Embers is boring, boring, boring. I had to drink four raktajinos just to get through chapter three. ♦ [Completed 239710][10]
  • The Zest of Life by Beidol Tro (2384): Some ups and downs with this one. Treesa was a fascinating character but Valko's lack of redemption was a let-down. ♦♦♦ [Completed 239802][11]

Personal history

See Biography of Yogan Yalu

Yalu

See Yalu (symbiont)

Yalu is a symbiont–a sentient vermiform lifeform–who has lived symbiotically inside hosts of the humanoid Trill species. Yalu was born in the Caves of Mak'ala on the Trill homeworld in 2030, and was Joined to a host for the first time in 2140. The joining of Yalu to Yogan Verso in 2392 created a new, unique individual–Yogan Yalu. Yalu's eighth humanoid host, Yogan, carries the memories of Yalu's seven previous hosts, who include a subspace radio operator, a farmer and artisan weaver, a famous actress, and a member of the Trill Senate.

Professional history

See Starfleet Academy transcript of Yogan Yalu
See Professional history of Yogan Yalu, 2397, 2398, 2399, and 2400

2393–2397

Yalu's Starfleet career began on Stardate 239307.01, when he entered Starfleet Medical Academy in San Francisco at the rank of Cadet 4th class. During his first year, he excelled in medical ethics, clinical fundamentals, and immunology, but struggled with genetics. Outside of his medical studies, he continued his flight training, earning high marks in starship navigation.

On Stardate 239407.01, Yalu began his second year of medical studies at the rank of Cadet 3rd class. During this year, he succeeded in the subjects of medical and life support systems and diagnosis, but had his biggest professional failures as well, earning a D+ in non-humanoid surgery, the lowest mark of his Academy career. He concluded his flight training during this year, receiving the equivalent of an undergraduate minor in navigation.

Yalu's final two years at Starfleet Academy were largely successful, although he continued to struggle in surgical classes. He graduated from the Academy on Stardate 239706.07, with a Level 5 pilot's qualification, an M.D., and a commission at the rank of Ensign.

2397

Yalu graduated from Starfleet Academy in June and was posted to the USS Atlantis as a medical officer. Five weeks later, he was transferred to the USS Resolution–which was re-entering active service–as a helm officer. In July, Resolution encountered the derelict USS Unity, whose computer systems had been commandeered by a space-dwelling lifeform. In September, Resolution visited Da'al, a non-aligned planet in the Borderlands, where the crew was instrumental in preventing a coup d'état. In December, Resolution was searching for a missing freighter in the Celendi Nebula when they were transported more than 200,000 years into the future.

In 2397, Yalu was awarded four service ribbons. He was also promoted from Ensign to Lieutenant JG on Stardate 239712.08.

2398

The year 2398 began with the USS Resolution still in the far future, attempting to rescue the crew of the freighter Andalucia from enslavement at the hands of the Sau. They succeeded in rescuing a large number of them, but Yalu was haunted by the fact that some were left behind. Upon their return to the present, Yalu began preparing to undertake zhian'tara, the Trill Rite of Closure, and invited several of his crewmates to participate in the ritual with him. In February, Resolution attempted to negotiate a peace agreement between the Nascaik and the Thama, who both claimed Vionus IV as part of their sovereign territory. After a terrorist attack nearly destroyed the ship, the crew successfully concluded the peace treaty between the surviving diplomatic representatives.

In April, Yalu returned to Trill with four of his crewmates, and completed his zhian'tara. The following month, when Resolution was sent into the Briar Patch to search for a missing Starfleet science ship, they crash landed on a planet inhabited by an advanced form of non-corporeal life, whose manipulation of energy caused a disruption in the relationship between Yogan (host) and Yalu (symbiont). The illness persisted for several months thereafter. In July, Yalu, along with the rest of Resolution's crew, was trapped in a time loop at the hands of a Q.

In September and October, while the USS Resolution was temporarily under the command of Genkos Adea, Yalu served as acting first officer.[17]

In 2398, Yalu was awarded 7 service ribbons. He was also promoted from Lieutenant JG to Lieutenant on Stardate 239805.04, and from Lieutenant to Lt. Commander on Stardate 239809.15.

2399

2400

On SD 240007.10, Yalu was promoted to first officer of the USS Artemis-A.
