Personality

Pacifist by belief, fighter by genes. Jophry's rather helpful person of calm demeanor and seriousness. His first obligation is to the people he serves and lives with. Close second is work of which he is proud and values it very highly. Romantic at heart. In times of great emotional stress he tends to seal off and, quite surprisingly, displays more aggressive stances, but his personal safeties had not yet failed him in critical spots. Although his values contain a ban on violence, he is capable of "rush acts" if they serve "greater good" - a flux concept, mainly considering preserverance of life.

Behind the exterior of a reliable and decisive person Jophry has a fair share of weak points, most interlinked with past relations with his father. Some of those weaknesses are an inability to come to terms with failures, a premonition of dormant aggresiveness and a sense of competition between him and his father which is, in fact, a masked attempt to finally rouse his parent's attention and appreciation.

Though competent GP, Jophry is mostly an epidemiologist, but his personal interest reaches into psychology also, making an interesting mix. His personal hobbies include mountain climbing and singing. Additionally he knows a little about wines.

Major weaknesses include anti-talents in engineering and helm (latter a psychological problem instilled by academy accident).


Personal History


Jophry was born 5th of April 2355 in Houston, Texas as second and last child of Lieutenant Junior Grade Frederick Arthur Calhan and painter Anne Ferris - Calhan. Jo and his sister Martha were neglected by their father pursuing military career in Starfleet and left in individual care of their mother. She followed a strict code of rules invented for the household by both parents. Children were not allowed much freedom and she disciplined them for any transgression. Apart from that Jophry was also subjected to harsh treatment from his father on his rare stays at home. Frederick Calhan proceeded with military excercises to instill soldier's spirit in his only son. He was also very demanding and rarely if ever accomodating to Jophry's emotional needs, including love. Subsequently Jophry became a quiet, but fit boy, secretly dreaming his dream of becoming a doctor, having a genuine feel for the people and willingness to help them. On his nineteenth birthday Jophry ran away from home, relinquished any contact with his mother, staying in touch only with his older sister, who was already a Starfleet cadet. Working hardly, he managed to secure a spot to live and a place in Atlanta Medical School.
