Lieutenant Isaac Bale, a Betazoid, is currently an Intelligence officer aboard the USS Mercury.
PERSONAL INFORMATION
History
As a young man, Isaac threw off the pacifist mantle that most associate with the Betazoid species when the Dominion War threatened to engulf the entire Alpha Quadrant. He joined the Federation Marine Corp to defend everything that he held dear. Due to his advantageous physical abilities, and his formidable telepathic strength, he was quickly assigned to their Special Forces division to receive further training. During a mission on [CLASSIFIED] Isaac was rendered unconscious in battle and captured by Cardassian forces. He underwent extreme [CLASSIFIED] at their hands, but later escaped to find that the war was over. After finishing his tour as a Marine, Isaac went on to join Starfleet Intelligence, where he still serves.
Personality
Isaac Bale is what most people would call cold-hearted. He has witnessed the horrors of war as a Marine. He has endured unimaginable torture and torment at the hands of his Cardassian captors. He has experienced extreme physical and psychological conditioning during his Intelligence training. Somewhere along the way, something inside of him died. He went numb. Now he values the mission over saving lives. He will follow orders, but in his mind the end justifies the means. If he saves a life, or spares one, it is because of orders or protocol... not compassion.
Relationships
In recent months, Isaac has started to notice a slight change in himself. Continued contact with Dr. Velana, the Mercury's Chief Medical Officer, has started to raise questions within Bale's mind. He finds himself caring for her, something that he has never experienced before, and he struggles to make sense of it due to the fact that their personalities are nearly polar opposites. Only time will tell if the growing connection Isaac feels with the good doctor will lead to something more.
Manner
- Carriage: Isaac carries himself well, with head held high and shoulders back, unless he is trying to blend in. One notable exception is that he tends to walk on the edge of his feet and roll onto the flat bottom, rather than thumping along. Years of practice have made stealthy movement a matter of course for him.
- Temperament: Isaac rarely shows any emotion at all. He knows no sorrow, and no joy. The most emotion that most people will ever see from him is a slight annoyance or frustration with others when he feels they are either wasting time or being disrespectful.
- Habits: Isaac has a habit of staring people right in the eyes when he knows they're looking at him. He has practiced giving an intense stare with his dark Betazoid eyes that many people find unsettling, which is of course why he does it.
- Religion/Spiritual Devotion: Like most Betazoids, Isaac Bale is a polytheist. He has a particular focus on the teachings of Khrysaros, however. He is skilled in the Betazoid martial art of Tassa'Akai and will carry his Khrysar'Akai with him on missions where combat is expected, as much for religious reasons as for the weapon's effectiveness.
Hobbies and Pastimes
Bale is never off duty. He has dedicated his life to the perfection of his craft, and so will spend most of his free time engaged in activities designed for that purpose. He can often be found enduring intense physical training and conditioning regimes on the holodeck, or else deep in a meditative state designed to center and focus his mind.
Likes
Though he rarely has time to stop and enjoy them, and nothing actually brings him joy, Isaac does have an appreciation for the finer things in life. Simple beauty, art, literature and music all remind him of the freedoms offered by the Federation. They remind him of what it is that he fights to protect.
Dislikes
Due to the nature of his career, Isaac has developed a strong distrust of just about everyone. Cardassians, however, have earned an extraordinary degree of contempt from the Intelligence officer who they once tortured and experimented upon for months.
