"... Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."
Lieutenant Junior Grade Alleran Tan (formerly Alleran Mapak) was a joined Trill, helmsman and pilot assigned to the USS Independence-A. On Stardate 238810.27, he was shot by his Mirror Universe duplicate while saving Luna Walker. Although he ultimately survived the experience, his wounds meant he could never be a fighter pilot again. To further add insult to injury, upon waking from his coma his request to return to the USS Independence-A was denied by Sidney Riley.

Mannerisms
- Quarters: Tan is currently without quarters after Sidney threw all his possessions out into the hallway.
- Favorite Room: Pilot's ready room. Tan feels most at home with fellow pilots, although he had many friends amongst the USS Independence-A crew.
- Mannerisms/Habits: Impulsive, even reckless, Tan's aggressive flying style has earned him both praise and scorn from his crewmates. Several notable "incidences" have lead him to begin to consider the wisdom of defensive flying, if only occasionally.
- Temperment: Tan becomes nervous in formal situations, such as mission briefings. When relaxed, his sense of humour is often self-depreciating and occasionally crude. Since returning from Devenon IV, Tan is a lot more confident socially.
- Religion/Spiritual Devotion: Tan is not a religious individual, but he has an open mind towards spirituality of various forms.
