Professional History
T'Katt served in positions such as general crewman and security at a variety of trading stations and on-board several cargo ship.
- His last job before joining Starfleet was on board a cargo ship transporting a variety of alcoholic beverages and other stock for bars and restaurant locations. This ship was attacked by a pirating gang which resulted in several injuries and casualties. T'Katt and a few others held the pirates at bay and managed to only lose about forty percent of their stock. With only one doctor available on the ship that came to their aid T'Katt had no choice but to assist him and his trainee in the care of the injured crew.
T'Katt joined joined the Starfleet Medical Academy after his experience's in his last job. While in the academy he focused on a standard course layout, taking only a few extra courses with his interests in cultural history, philosophy, self defense, and fitness including the Basic Marine Training course.
- He focused mostly on subjects in the Division of Health Sciences and Starfleet Command School but gave each course from each division he took considerable study, often spending days in the library and reading data pads. With his hard work and study T'Katt graduated in every category and course he took and earned his Doctorate Medical Degree.
- T'Katt had little dedication to a single course of duty instead leaving himself open to being stationed anywhere within the security and medical posts. Ultimately among the desired posts he chose counselor, having decided this was a good position for him as his interests in history, culture, and philosophy coupled with the insights gained through his unique upbringing might allow him to excel in it.
- Through his studies at the academy T'Katt wrote the draft volume of The k'ak'ka, s'frei, kloshah, which translates to, Train, Understand, Behave. A book of conduct and honor codes. T'Katt believes that proper control over ones emotions come in the form of being able to express each one in an appropriate and controlled manor, not by suppressing them or to allowing them to flow unchecked. In truth his Code is new even to himself and as he practices it's ideals and learns more about the cultures of the galaxy he is constantly analyzing it and adjusting, extending, and in every other way developing it to perfection.
After his final examination at Starbase 118 under Commander Lael Rosek he was assigned the position of Ships Counselor on-board the USS Veritas NCC-95035.
Personal History
T'Katt was born on a now decommissioned Starbase near the edge of the Vulcan space, his parents had met during an unusual scientific expedition in which his father served as one of six Klingon Security officers, his mother was a somewhat low ranking Science officer assigned to the same ship. Over time the two became like friends and during an intense period in which his mother T'Presa experienced Pon Farr the two of them conceived and with the help of the ships doctor during the pregnancy as well as the quick thinking and unorthodox methods implemented by the Starbase's Vulcan and Human Doctor's Sutrek and Joshua Litten T'Katt survived the process.
T'Katt was raised primarily with his mother on Vulcan experiencing many social obstacles such as bigotry and other forms of criticisms. As a child T'Katt would experience extreme fits of emotion both positive and negative and he struggled greatly to even remotely achieve the kind of control the Vulcan peoples around him had. At the age of ten T'Katt preformed the Rite of Tal'oth and later at the age of twelve he left Vulcan to live with his father.
He spent the next six years with his father on the Klingon home world Qo'noS (Kronos). Here he experienced similar forms of adversities due to his genetic heritage though he found quickly that his fits of rage often brought him more respect within this society. Durring his time with his father T'Katt learned how to express emotions with exaggeration and creativity. At the age of fourteen he took part in the Klingon Rite of Ascension with his fathers clan.
T'Katt left Kronos around the age of eighteen and wondered from location to location preforming menial jobs truly lost about himself, his upbringing even with his rite's preformed had left him feeling uncertain about himself and his place in life. His mother had wanted him to pursue the arts of science while his father of course the arts of war; it wasn't until he got caught in a cargo ship jacking and was forced into a position where he had to help a medical team that he came to the realization that led him down his current path. Realizing he enjoyed helping and defending others, traveling, and learning about different cultures T'Katt decided to travel to Earth and join Starfleet.

Like most hybrid Klingon's he has forehead ridges that are not quite as pronounced as a full blood Klingon though they are more pronounced than the average in Klingon hybrid's.
Habits and Abilities
T'Katt tends to live inside his own head. He often "zones out" thinking and analyzing things and from this has a tenancy to overthink simple things from time to time. This in depth thinking also allows him to make connections and see details many people might overlook or not consider.
Tastes/Preferences
T'Katt is not a very big fan of music. His musical tastes encompass just about every genre he has heard but in the form of very select songs and artists. Klingon and Vulcan music is among his least favorite since acquiring access to Earths musical collections. Human music genres he listens to include Jazz, Metal, and Electronic musical formats.
Reputation
In his youth on Vulcan T'Katt had a reputation of being emotional, illogical, underachieving, violent, and rude, as well as creative, intelligent, and determined.
In his youth on Kronos T'Katt had a reputation of being to Vulcan-like, and to merciful, as well as for being brave, strong, and determined.
Until his time in Starfleet his reputation as an adult was that of a capable and flexible worker nothing more.
In Starfleet academy he had an average reputation, though he was considered somewhat unsociable given his constant studying rather than attendance of events and gathering.
He has yet to build a reputation on the USS Veritas.
