<< Personal Notes >>
MacRae tries to maintain a good level of physical fitness and enjoys ice hockey, running and outdoor trekking.
He is also skilled, and continues to train, in the self-defence art of Krav Maga – which he began practising while in Tel-Aviv. While he prefers to avoid carrying a weapon, mostly through his desire to avoid appearing hostile and confrontational, MacRae is a skilled close-quarters combatant and is highly skilled in the use of trench knives – a weapon comprising a knuckle duster style grip and double-edged blade, similar to a Klingon mek'leth.
He enjoys games that involve thought, memory, tactics and bluffs and is particularly fond of poker and liars dice – although his skills at observing microexpressions and spotting lies mean he seldom finds people who are prepared to play him for long...and certainly not for money.
He enjoys the taste of whisky and always tries to ensure he has a genuine, non-replicated, bottle of single malt available in his quarters – his personal favourites being the peaty whiskies of Islay.
MacRae counts among his favourite books; The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli, Leviathan and Behemoth by Thomas Hobbes and the Shakespearian play – Othello.
He also has a keen interest in the Three Kingdoms era of ancient China.

Duncan MacRae
Father - (B: 232909.14) (Age: 72) - A retired political correspondant and editor with the Federation News Service.
Allison MacRae
Mother - (B: 233110.11) (Age: 70) - A xenoanthrapologist and curator at the Caledonia Museum Of Culture.
Iona Louise MacRae
Younger Sister - (B: 236406.19) (Age: 37) - Iona is a sous-chef at a restaurant in Geneva that specializes in ‘Xeno-Fusion’ cuisine. She, unlike her older brother, left academic education at sixteen to follow her passion for cooking into the real world and began her training as a kitchen porter at a hotel/restaurant close to the family home. Working in the tightly knit group within the kitchen she was often used by the staff as a taste tester for their new dishes and it was through this that the head chef discovered her excellent palette. He encouraged her to attend catering college as this would open up more opportunities for her. She moved to London to study and excelled in her first two years. During this time she showed a particular aptitude for not only pastry and deserts but also blending unique flavours together. She was offered a training position in kitchen in Paris for her final apprenticeship year and, based on her attention to detail and work ethic, was offered a full-time position within the restaurant as a full-time chef. She stayed in this position for three years, broadening her repertoire and skill set before she, attracted by the additional challenge and the unique nature of food being produced in the restaurant, moved to Geneva. Her current position allows her the freedom to try new things with some of the finest ingredients from around the galaxy and she hopes, one day, to be chef-patron of her own restaurant.
Bryan and Iona have a typical sibling relationship and, despite their minor personal differences and approaches to life, they have a good bond and a respect for each other to live their own lives their own way.
