Jona Omid: Difference between revisions

Jona tended not to enjoy Uncers' company, but he appreciated the man's guidance.  Uncers was the closest thing to a father figure in Jona's life.

Jona was captured by the Vaudwaar during a mission by the USS-Independence-A.  He was later found on the planet Draconis Gamma 7, where he had been brainwashed into believing himself a soldier for the Vaudwaar.

Investigations by [[Kevin Breeman]] revealed that a small robotic fly had been employed in brainwashing Jona.  The fly had sophisticated software for detecting mental gestalts and schemas and melding them together to form pro-Vaudwaar story-lines.  In Jona's case, the fly reconfigured Jona's brain so that he believed his estranged father was actually a Cardassian and that Jona himself was responsible for the man's estrangement by virtue of the fact that he hated him [http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/sb118-ronin/message/6298|].  The fly injected into the narrative the emotional detachment of his mother as a function of her infection with a flu, necessitating the intercession of a messianic figure in the form of a Vaudwaar soldier.

The fly also re-configured Jona's memory of Uncers so that the man served not as a personal mentor on the farm but rather as a military trainer of some kind.  The narrative back-fired [http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/sb118-ronin/message/6339] however when the meditation techniques the fly's version of Uncers had taught Jona served to help him un-lock his true identity again.
