Toran had served in Starfleet as a Marine; ultimately finding himself fighting in the Dominion War. One of Toran's postings was at {{ma|AR-558}} after {{ma|Benjamin Sisko|Captain Benjamin Sisko}} ordered replacement troops to relieve the weary and shattered troops stationed there. He remained there until the Federation was forced to pull out when the Breen and their devastating energy-draining weapon entered the war, and the Dominion retook the planetoid. After the war, Toran suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder for the rest of his life. He had spent time on Trill recovering, but Toran never fully recovered from the war. He developed paranoia, constantly jumping at the slightest sound, as if a Jem'Hadar would pop out of a corner, or having panic attacks in crowded areas. Toran spent most of his time drinking, and attending counseling sessions. He was constantly in-and-out of hospitals for malnutrition, panic attacks and isoboramine imbalance. In order to prevent the death of both host ''and'' symbiont, Sevo was removed from Toran, ultimately causing his death. Ayiana was convinced that if Sevo hadn't been removed, Toran would have ultimately taken his own life.
Toran had served in Starfleet as a Marine; ultimately finding himself fighting in the Dominion War. During the conflict, Toran fell into the habit of collecting Jem'Hadar White vials off the bodies of Jem'Hadar he personally killed, as a sort of morbid trophy collection. By the middle of 2375, he had collected around 20. He was stationed on the {{ma|USS Galaxy}} during the {{ma|First Battle of Chin'toka}}, ultimately participating in the ground assault to capture the planet. Later, Toran returned to the Chin'toka system, being posted to {{ma|AR-558}} after {{ma|Benjamin Sisko|Captain Benjamin Sisko}} ordered replacement troops to relieve the weary and shattered troops stationed there. He remained there until the Federation was forced to pull out when the Breen and their devastating energy-draining weapon entered the war, and the Dominion retook the planetoid.

The extreme stress of PTSD coupled with the trauma of a sudden extraction caused mental deterioration of Sevo. The symbiont's brain subconsciously warped its memories, creating false memories and distorted timescales, making Ayiana think Vereesa was the last host, when in fact it was Toran. Ayiana even remembers the implantation procedure, seeing Vereesa on the table across from her. Most of Toran's memories have resurfaced and fully reintegrated into Sevo, but there are still some that Ayiana draws blanks on.
