PERSONAL INFORMATION
Appearance
- Description: Heavily influenced by his Denobulan side physically, he has all the classic facial, ear and body ridges, with natural purple highlights to his spotted pattern, though he does not have the “blowfish” ability. Behaviorally, he is able to span both Denobulan and Terran cultures with ease. Comes across as younger than he is, but is surprisingly wise and insightful into people and personal problems.
- Physique: Though generally healthy in appearance, he doesn’t exercise. If one takes a good look past what a full uniform can hide, they might consider him far too lean for his height/stature.
Personality
- Demeanor: Happy, usually has a smile.
- Nature: Has a two sided personality. His open demeanor is productive, efficient, professional and charming. His less openly shown nature is unexpectedly chaotic, a near 180 to his boring, calm exterior. His underlying complexities show themselves through secretly-destructive behavior.
- Personality: Confident and scientifically trained, he relies on his knowledge, natural charm and quick wit. He is warm, cheerful, makes friends easily, works well with others, and likes to see other people happy. His professional pursuits are top notch, and he prizes a healthy skepticism. Very sociable (as Denobulans tend to be), but also very secretive of his personal business (like his holodeck activities) and medical information. How he is seen by others impacts him greatly, which is why he keeps his wilder behavior so well hidden. He sees his wild side as a personal shame to his Denobulan heritage (which is peaceful and calm), his personal adherence to pacifism, and his profession.
- Behavioral Note: While he thinks his chaotic behavior is due to his Terran heritage, he realizes it may be a deeper reaction to his medical condition (not noted in bio for the sake of mystery). The irony of having such a psychological twist to his nature doesn't escape him.
- Hobbies: Comedy, singing, brewing exotic coffees, reading new anthropology and psychology texts. He learned to cook from his mother, though he secretly hates it. He likes cute furry animals (and isn’t afraid to admit it, squeeze it, love it and call it George). Secretly he thrives on exciting holodeck club nights and risk taking activities.
Strengths/Benefits
- His dedication to his work, family, and friends is beyond simple loyalty. While he seems carefree, he actually takes most things very seriously. His high energy and productivity reflect this even if his carefree attitude doesn't.
- His natural optimism is not easily broken.
- He is a pacifist.
Faults/Flaws
- He has a near-phobic dislike of being touched by others. (Chiraptophobia, common on Denobula)
- Destructive hidden personality (secret behaviors, smoking, drinking, clubbing, etc).
- He is a pacifist.
Personal Quotes
"My childhood? No, I don't mind at all. My parents separated when I was young. There was no animosity in this for me, as it was perfectly civilized. Between Earth and Denobula, I received the best of training from the best of both worlds by the best of parents. I had a perfectly normal upbringing filled with perfectly normal life trials, was never beaten or bullied or mentally disparaged. While I had everything I could need, I was neither spoiled nor overly-protected. Perfectly boring for you to hear, no doubt."
"Of what worth is a vow of pacifism when it is made in the protected sphere in which we exist? We know neither hunger or strife, we don't struggle for our daily needs. The Federation skirts the borders of chaos that exist so prevalently elsewhere in this vicious universe, but even still, we are protected. When faced with willful cruelty, what good is my vow? Did I make it without true perspective? If I'm faced with harm, why shouldn't I pull the trigger? Every answer I can think of is selfish."
