W'Tine, Eyas: Difference between revisions

Upon arrival at Wheeler Colony, Eyas was assigned to Fleet Captain [[Riley, Sidney|Sidney Riley]]’s away team to locate the drug shipment and confiscate it. They managed to do this, but in the process Eyas was badly injured in a fight with a giant FTU henchman. The physical trauma of this and his earlier exertions accelerated the effects of the parasite upon his body. Suddenly, in front of his teammates, Eyas mutated rapidly into a giant reptilian creature. He was saved by his friend and colleague Ensign [[Nevarass, Alahndra Lelwin|Alahndra Nevarass]] who he had taken into his confidence about his condition and had prepared a hypospray of antidote. Alahndra accompanied a semi-changed Eyas back to the Independence sickbay, where Alahndra managed to stabilise Eyas’ condition and slowly return him to a normal appearance. However, he had a relapse triggered by using the transporter, and ran amok through the promenade of DS17. He was again restored to normality but faced disciplinary proceedings for his actions. He would also have to take antidote for the rest of his life to prevent the parasite from regaining the upper hand once and for all. It also appeared that the mental scars would take even longer to heal than the physical ones. Despite his wreckless actions in not reporting his condition earlier, he was nonetheless promoted to full Lieutenant on the eve of the next mission, this time to the Romulan colony of Bilire VI.  

Eyas performed adequately during the early stages of the Bilire mission to help Romulan refugees set up a new colony after the destruction of Hobus, but after an attack by the [[Reapers]] upon the Independence, Eyas and other senior officers were recalled to the ship to fight the intruders and rescue comrades who had been ‘collected’. Whilst confronting one such Reaper, Eyas himself was immobilized, and his mind (or soul) was taken back to the Reapers’ ship, the [[Rihac Gorshun]]. When the Reapers were finally defeated and their ship destroyed, Eyas’ soul returned to his body – but only after a painful ‘piggy-back’ ride within one of the Reaper’s dying body. Eyas awoke in Sickbay during a final fight between that Reaper and some of his comrades. Eyas had thought that was the end of his troubles, but he very soon found out that his girlfriend [[Z’leah]] had contracted a near fatal plague on Bilire VI and was recovering slowly in sickbay, that his great friend [[Nevarass, Alahndra Lelwin|Alahndra Nevarass]] had left the [[USS Independence-A]] for parts unknown whilst he was unconscious, and then finally had the news broken to him that his father, General Clovis Wulfantine had been assassinated by [[Byzatium|Byzallian terrorists]], prompting a ratcheting up of tensions betweens the [[Pythron|Pythrons]] and the [[Byzatium|Byzallians]] leading to the [[Bardeezan War of 2388]]. Eyas was unable to return to Pythro to comfort his mother, as all communication between Pythro and the Federation was suspended because of the looming war with [[Byzatium]]. Lonely, hurt and in mourning for his Father, Eyas thought things couldn’t get any worse……
