First Lieutenant Teyvion Kesaan is a Joined Trill serving in the Starfleet Marine Corps. (SFMC) and currently assigned to the ‘The Knights Of Excalibur’, the name given to the marine forces aboard the USS Excalibur-A.

<< Early Life & Education >>

Teyvion Xaivis (pron. zai-viss) was the eldest son of Torian and Elara Xaivis and was born in Leran Manev on Trill. He has a younger brother, Jarad, and a younger sister, Kaliyo. He became Teyvion Kesaan when he was joined with the symbiont in 2382.

<< Pre-Starfleet Career >>

Becoming Kesaan

In early 2382, Teyvion and Vitor were assigned as part of a mass evacuation program after a sudden and large-scale atmospheric ion storm formed off the northern coast of Trill's main continent, threatening several remote settlements in the Deln Mountains. They were assigned to Rescue Shuttle 4291, piloted by a Federation Security pilot named Jaesa Kesaan.

The crew were making their last pass just as the storm landed when a freak discharge struck their shuttle taking the power and flight systems offline and causing the vessel to crash into the mountain range - leaving them stranded as the storm touched down. Jaesa was mortally wounded in the crash and both Teyvion and Vitor knew, despite their own injuries, that they had to save the symbiont she carried; but the equipment for stabilizing the creature had been destroyed in the crash. Vitor, from his own failed attempt to become joined, knew that he was an unsuitable host which left them with only one option - he would have to transplant the symbiont into Kesaan to keep it stable until help arrived.

The storm, however, raged for three days and by the time the rescue teams found the crash site Teyvion had become irreversibly linked with Kesaan. Vitor, together with Jaesa's remains, were evacuated back to their base city of Shator while Teyvion was transported to the Trill Symbiosis Commission facility in his home city of Leran Manev for evaluation. What followed was a six-month period of adjustment as Teyvion adapted to his joining, coming to terms with the new facets of his personality and the knowledge that the symbiont passed to him. Furthermore, due to Jaesa also being based in Shator, the Commission advised that Teyvion not return to the area to avoid additional stress from the mixed memories. Realising that he was now a different person, and having to come to terms with who he was and a completely different perspective on everything he had known, he made plans to leave the planet.

Deployment to the Afehirr Sector

In early 2391 Teyvion and his CSAR unit were redeployed to the USS Excalibur-A, operating in the Afehirr Sector and under the command of Fleet Captain Kalianna Nicholotti, to join the existing marine forces aboard the vessel – ‘The Knights Of Excalibur’.

His first assignment, however, was not a pleasant or successful one – to search for the remains of Fleet Captain Nicholotti and her Eagle-class fighter craft. Nicholotti had piloted it into the epicentre of an expanding spatial anomaly. Nicholotti did this to prevent the destruction of both the USS Excalibur-A and Erscyne Station, a starbase of the Erscyne Trade Alliance. Following an extensive sweep of the area no sign of the Captain or her craft were detected and she was classified as ‘missing presumed dead’.

Teyvion attened a memorial ceremony for Captain Nicholotti where his recently assigned combat search & rescue detachment formed an honour guard - in tribute to her sacrifice and past service as a Starfleet Marine.

<< Friendships, Relationships & Persons Of Note >>

Vitor Trell
Vitor was Teyvion’s friend and colleague at Shator Regional Hospital and was also assigned to Rescue Shuttle 4291 during the ion storm evacuation in 2382. An unjoined Trill, he had already been deemed ‘biologically incompatible’ to be joined by the Trill Symbiosis Commission and, as a result, he was unable to act as a host for the Kesaan symbiont. Vitor performed the transplantation of Kesaan from Jaesa to Teyvion in order to preserve the symbiont and was evacuated back to their home base in Shator while Teyvion was transported to Leran Manev. Teyvion left Trill soon after his recovery and has not seen or heard from Vitor since that day.

Emelia Adams
Emelia is a Sergeant Major in the SFMC and serves as the leading NCO for the Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) Team aboard the USS Excalibur-A. Teyvion met Emelia when he was assigned as a team leader within the 23rd Emergency Response Battalion as a freshly qualified Combat Rescue Officer and where she was serving as a Gunnery Sergeant at the time. During their tour of service together they became both trusted colleagues and friends, having served in several operations together. In early 2391 Emilia was approaching selection for Sergeant Major and Kesaan appeared at her review panel and, following her successful selection and promotion Sergeant Major, she transferred to the USS Excalibur-A with the rest of Kesaan’s detachment. Teyvion genuinely feels that he would not be the officer he was today without Emelia’s influence in the early years of his career and values her counsel greatly.

<< Kesaan Symbiont >>

The Kesaan Symbiont
DoB: 213501.13 (Age: 266) Birthplace: Caves Of Mak’ala, Trill, Alpha Quadrant Race: Trill Symbiont Gender: N/A Previous Hosts: Malavai, Sh’renn, Aric, Jaesa Current Host: Teyvion Edit this nav

Malavai Kesaan
(B. 217205.17 - D. 226708.23; Age: 95)
Host Duration: 219109.01 - 226710.21 (76 Years)
Malavai was the first host of the Kesaan symbiont and was a scribe and teacher at the Iriven Monastery in the foothill of the Lerkana Mountains on Trill. His primary task was to collect and translate the various texts, audio-files and holographic recordings that were obtained by the order from their original language into the Trill native tongue. A calm and contemplative man he was highly proficient in multiple languages from his years of study and worked as a teacher in the nearby village when time allowed. Malavai observed a vast amount of information during his time with the order and, while much of that detailed knowledge has been lost, the symbiont retains substantial linguistic knowledge.

Sh’renn Kesaan
(B. 220102.02 - D. 232711.04; Age: 86)
Host Duration: 226710.21 – 232711.04 (60 Years)
Sh’renn was already a successful advocate in the Justice Ministry on Trill when she became joined with Kesaan as the second host. As time progressed in her career, however, she became more aware that things were not always within her power and that justice was not always being served – whether someone she felt was guilty beyond doubt was freed or she felt an innocent had been wrongly convicted. Feeling there was only one way she could change this situation he applied for, and passed, her examinations to become an Arbiter. In her new position she was pragmatic and did her best to serve justice above all, trying to set personal feelings aside to make the correct judgement – giving her a reputation as being ruthless in her judgements. Sh'renn was the first host to be married and had two children – a daughter called Valena and a son named Soren.

Aric Kesaan
(B. 230705.09 - D. 237701.31; Age: 69)
Host Duration: 232712.11 - 237701.31 (50 Years)
Aric become the third host of the Kesaan symbiont and was the first one to leave Trill on a long term basis. A lover of food from an early age and a naturally gifted cook he wanted to explore and sample cuisines from different cultures across the quadrant. He travelled to several worlds working in various kitchens and restaurants and eventually settled on Risa, where he felt his particular style of xeno-fusion cuisine would be highly received, and opened his own restaurant ‘Alpha-Q’. He gained a reputation as somewhat of a ‘tortured genius’ being both excellent at cooking but having a violently short temper with both his staff and, on more than one occasion, his customers. He did become more mellow and philosophical in his later years but never lost his passion when it came to food. Aric also married, on three separate occasions - remaining married to his third wife, Irisa, until his death. He often found it difficult to maintain relationships due to his unsocial working life.

Jaesa Kesaan
(B. 235412.05 - D. 238202.14; Age: 27)
Host Duration: 237702.01 - 238202.14 (5 Years)
Jaesa, the fourth host, was a young pilot operating as a contract worker primarily flying atmospheric cargo shuttles on Trill. Due to the abundance and accessibility of transporter technology and other modes of transport, in addition to competition from other contractors, Jaesa began to seek different and more stable employment. She eventually found work with Federation Security (FedSec) as a patrol pilot operating from Shator and covering the Sea of Alibath. In early 2382, she was assigned to a multi-regional evacuation force as a rescue pilot, when an anomalous atmospheric ion storm began to form off the northern coast of the main continent of Trill. It was during this rescue operation that she was fatally injured when her shuttle crashed as a result of an ionic discharge and the Kesaan symbiont was transplanted into to nearest suitable host to save its life.

Teyvion Kesaan
(B. 235303.17 – Present Day; Age: 48)
Host Duration: 238202.14 – Present Day (19 Years)
Teyvion is the current and fifth host of the Kesaan Symbiont and serves as an officer in the SFMC.
