PERSONALITY
Hobbies and Pastimes
His religion emphasizes art, and he is a very good artist in many media His love of languages has led to him learning several, which he loves Daro learned to cook for himself as a child which he still enjoys doing, finding it therapeutic He uses the gym to pull himself out of his head too much, especially running and climbing
Likes and Dislikes
Daro has never enjoyed conflict. He tries to make peace with others whenever possible. He is shy around new people, but it very outgoing with and fiercely loyal to those he considers friends. He enjoys spending time with those he is close to, but has very few of those people in his life. He began using the gym as a way to drag himself out of too many cerebral pursuits, but has come to enjoy the time spent there. It’s semi-social without being high-pressure which he can better handle. His favorite athletic pursuits have been less team oriented, though. He enjoys running and rock climbing the most.
Ambitions and Goals
Daro hopes to help discover a new culture. He knows that as introverted as he is that first contact is probably not his strength, but being a part of that team is a huge goal for him. To that end, he has started pushing himself to grow more comfortable socially. He wouldn’t mind being promoted and moving up the ranks as that would be recognition of a job well done, but he is also anxious about that possibility as it tends to mean responsibility for managing others. He would love to be the kind of person who makes friends easily, but realizes his own limitations. He’s decided to set more realistic goals there in the form of finding a few friends on his new ship. He would enjoy it if one of those friendships developed into more, but he knows that will be an uphill climb for him.
Personal Achievements and Disappointments
Dissapointments: Daro has always felt like something of an outsider. He knows that his family loves him, but they do not understand him, and he fears that he is something of a disappointment to them as he is fairly abnormal for a Rodulan. That, in turn, disappoints him. Professionally, he really hasn’t had that many disappointments. A poor test score, a paper his professor didn’t agree with, etc., but nothing major. Beyond that, Daro regrets the opportunities he has missed interpersonally more than anything else.
Achievements: Defending his dissertation and receiving his Doctorate. That was a real high point for him. It showed him that all the odd views of the world around him which he’d always thought were wrong, were actually very right. Being surrounded by others with such similar interests and views of the universe did a world of good to his self-confidence…though it is sometimes hard to tell. Joining Starfleet after that was another milestone for him. It finally set him on his own path, one independent from any he’d been on before.

RELATIONSHIPS
Personal
Gilan Conti and Karda Nosh (Siblings/Friends): His brother and half-sister have always been people he has felt close to. Their parents were often very busy, so the siblings were thrust together much of the time. They were also three of the only Rodulan kids on Betazed, so that link helped them become even closer. They remain his most trusted confidants.
Zev Rion (Friend/more?): Zev was a classmate Daro grew very close to. He and Daro were in several of the same classes, so they naturally found themselves studying together for various tests. That became the basis for their friendship. By the third year of their graduate program, their friendship had progressed to something more physical for them both and apparently more emotional for Daro. As their graduation approached, Daro brought up the issue of where they might look for positions together only to find out that Zev has already accepted a position back on his home world. He hadn’t realized that Daro had assumed they would be staying together. That was what prompted Daro to join Starfleet. They remain friends, but the relationship is strained.
