	Personality

Maz Rodan is an enthusiastic and adventurous young Trill. He loves exploring the universe and finds excitement in most things. He is bubbly and friendly, yet sometimes often self-reflective. Although he has been Joined since 2397, he is still coming to terms with the 'new' Maz. He enjoys sports, particularly basketball and hockey, and has a strong liking for Earth music and food. He's a lot laid back than other Trill, and enjoys socializing. He was born and raised in Mak'ala City, the capital city of Trill, and considers himself more cosmopolitan and open minded than Trill from other parts of the planet.

Like most Trill, Maz is inherently bisexual, though has accepted that he is - and was before Joining - homosexual.

He graduated from the Academy with a major in Astrophysics and Astronomy, with a minor in Quantum Mechanics. He is fascinated with the workings of the universe and his biggest dream is to witness the birth of a star. While at the Academy he joined a group of budding scientists called The Storm Chasers, who in their spare time chased ion storms with the hopes of mapping their internal composition in an attempt to create an effective early warning system against dangerous ion storms, dust clouds and interstellar matter phenomena.

	The Rodan Symbiont

Rodan was born in the pools of The Caves of Mak'ala - the sacred caves on Trill where Symbionts are born and raised - in 2226. They were watched over and nurtured by the dedicated Guardians for ten years until 2236 when Rodan was Joined to their First Host.

Shona First Host (2236 - 2298) Rodan's First Host - Shona - was a psychiatrist who ran a private practice, and later served as a Field Docent for the Evaluation Board of the Trill Symbiosis Commission. Known for her sharp tongue and short temper, she helped guide hundreds of Initiates onto Joining, and equally helped wash-out hundreds more. Shona was a 'no nonsense' character who enjoyed martinis and tennis. She was married, and had two children. She died of a heart attack aged 82 in 2298.

Zosha Second Host (2298 - 2334) Second Host Zosha was an oceanographer and zoologist. Poetic and lovely, she was very lovable to all who knew her. She was known to be very beautiful and always smiled. She was married but had no children. She died in a research accident underwater off the coast of Najana City in 2334.

Rafi Third Host (2334 - 2352) The Third Host of Rodan - Rafi - was a loud and mischievous Private Detective formerly of the Trill Police Service. A rash hot-head, he was known to bend rules and cut corners to get his work done. Rafi enjoyed the music and culture of various Alpha and Beta Quadrant races. He picked up Shona's sharp tongue and penchant for arguments, and met his fate at the end of a d'k tagh in a Klingon dive bar in 2352.

Jareth Fourth Host (2352 - 2397) Joined for 45 years, Jareth was a noted Starfleet Chief Medical Officer. He served on several starships in his career and saw action in the Borg Invasion of 2373, and The Dominion War. While exploring uncharted space in 2397, Jareth was infected with a deadly and unknown disease, which proved terminally fatal. He requested to return to Trill to die, where he could meet the future Initiate to have the Rodan Symbiont, and pass along some advice. He died aged 63.

Aldred Nevron Father Maz's father - Aldred Nevron - is a curator at the Mak'ala Natural History Museum on Trill. A quiet a studious man, he is very supportive of Maz's Joining and enlistment in Starfleet. He has a deep regret for not pushing himself to be Joined when he was younger, and wishes he had. He is a lover of history and natural history.

Elosi Nevron Mother His mother Elosi is a senior nurse at one of the major medical centers in the city. She is warm and friendly - if a little loud and boisterous. She has a particularly high and shrill voice. She does not really approve of Maz's Joining, stating that the new personality post-Joining won't be her "Little Mazzy". Despite her objections, she is deeply protective of her eldest son.

Early Life

---

• Childhood: Maz had a typical childhood, living and exploring Mak'ala City. He learned about Trill science and history by hanging out in the museum his father works in. He was an only child until the age of 8, and became a protective and supportive older brother.
• Education: Bright and outgoing, Maz excelled in school and attended both primary and secondary school on Trill. He attended Starfleet Academy on Earth.
• Joining: With the expediency of having to re-Host Rodan, Maz was surprised to be called back to Trill in an emergency to be Joined. He was able to speak to Jareth before he died, and the older Starfleet Officer passed along some advice prior to him being Joined.
• Starfleet: It was always Maz's intention to join Starfleet. He was accepted to the Trill Science Ministry as a junior scientist, but wanted to see the galaxy instead. His previous Host - Jareth - was a Starfleet Officer and so the role comes naturally to him. Maz was already an Ensign serving on the USS Dickens when he was Joined in 2397.

	Missions

• What Happens on Risa... - Maz arrives on Risa to assume his new post as Science Officer on the USS Arrow. He participates - badly - in the 132nd Annual Risa Regatta, and discovers a new symptom of his recent Joining - seasickness. He finds the hydroponics bay in disarray and cleans it up before the ship departs orbit. He is also present at the crew ceremony and witnesses Commander Shayne be promoted to Captain.

• Freaky Friday - The Arrow is sent to establish relations with the Gentii. After a strange probe scans the crew, Maz finds himself 'body-swapped' with their Chief of Security, Artinus Serinus.

	Important Sims

• My Time - Newly Joined Maz arrives for duty on the USS Arrow.
