Personality
- Temperament: Being half Human and half Klingon T'Var has always struggled with her conflicting natures. She tries to be a calm and collected person but at heart she has always identified more with her Klingon heritage and as such she can be very hot headed at times. Despite this she always does her best to follow orders and be the best Starfleet Officer she can.
- Favorite Room: The holodeck, where T'Var enjoys adventure holo-novels. She also spends a considerable length of time in the gym as she enjoys working out. And, in her spare time, if she is not in the holodeck or gym she'll most likely be found in her quarters.
- Quarters: They are, on the whole, reserved. Three framed photos decorate the walls; one of Kronos, one of her family and one of the USS Atlantis. A few symbolic possessions from her childhood are scattered throughout the room. And on a long table set against a wall are a variety of bladed weapons, namely a bat'leth, broad sword, etc.
- Religion: T'Var follows the beliefs of most Klingons. She believes that the gods who created the first Klingons were eventually slain by them. She believes that after she dies she will go, either to Gre'thor, or to Sto'Vo'Kor.
- Hobbies: In her spare time, T'Var enjoys predominantly physical activities such as climbing, fighting with a Bat'leth and D'ktagh, anbo-jitsu and krav maga. Although she also enjoys some activities that are less physical for example; three-dimensional chess and reading adventure stories.
- Music: T'Var's love of music comes from her father. She began to play the harp on 237806.03 and two years later her father who gave her the harp which she still plays to this day. T'Var also enjoys singing but she rarely tells people about that particular skill.
- Likes: In true Klingon form, she loves to fight and often runs holodeck programs that allow her to do just that. T'Var also has a great love and respect for traditions, especially those that pertain to the Klingon faith.
- Dislikes: She has only one true dislike and that is her conflicting natures. Being both Klingon and Human has always made things more difficult for T'Var and although she tries to live with it, it has been a struggle at times.
- Ambitions: T'Var has no ambition with regards to family but when it comes to her work she wants to do well at her job and one day she hopes to become a Captain and have her own ship.
- Fears: Weakness. If there is one thing T'Var fears above all else it is weakness. She dreads being unable to do what she needs to, to be incapable of protecting the people she cares for.
- Pets: A Tribble by the name of Matoskah, which means white bear. During a mission on board the USS Atlantis, they ran into a time rift and after following a long series of complex events Tribbles began materializing all over the ship. Matoskah was one of these Tribbles.
Important Relationships

Raj Blueheart: |
|---|---|
| First Captain | |
| Raj Blueheart was the captain aboard the USS Atlantis. When T'Var finished at Starfleet Academy she was first assigned to the Atlantis. Captain Blueheart was one of the first people she met while onboard and she formed an instant loyalty to him. | |
|
Adam Haase: |
|---|---|
| Close Friend | |
| Adam and T'Var met onboard the USS Atlantis. When Adam first joined the Atlantis T'Var didn't really know him and neither really talked to the other. It wasn't until Captain Blueheart disappeared that T'Var and Adam properly met. They worked together on creating a device to produce a specially adapted dampening field and during this time they became very close friends. | |
