He spends much of his time thinking. His mind is always pondering a solution to a problem. Often he thinks in terms of numbers, believing that there is a mathematical solution to virtually any problem or at least in predicting the future with a reasonable confidence. However it is future prediction that Cadet Ra earned a high mark on during his Academy days. As part of a dissertation, Cadet Ra posited that the future can never be accurately predicted at 100% even if you were to travel into the future to witness it. This is because even slight knowledge of the future would cause a person to act differently because of that knowledge which would ultimately lead to a different outcome. | He spends much of his time thinking.

The name Ra-Uleyra is neither a first name or a last name as the Efrosian, but rather a combined name. Ra represents his father's lineage whereas Uleyra is unique to himself. Females will change the first half of their name when mating, but as most Efrosians have several mates over their lifespan, females may change their names many times throughout their lifespan. Ra-Uleyra generally goes by Ra and it is appropriate for him to be referred to as Lieutenant Ra or Lieutenant Ra-Uleyra. Individuals who are closer to him, will call him Ra-Ul. It is offensive to refer to an Efrosian by only the second half of their name, so Uleyra would be unacceptable. | |||
