Personal History
As a child Brell was quite a handful always wanting attention in which his three parents could never give enough of to please him. He was good at his studies, always attentive when his parents, aunts and uncles were teaching. Usually the first to blurt out a question or comment often earning him the ridicule of his siblings and cousins. This caused him to become very a defensive boy and when he entered puberty his questions and comments began to skew to the sarcastic or lewd earning him the ire of adults in the family. At the age of fifteen Brell was caught shop-lifting from a shop in which he and his co-father had just made a delivery too. After they returned home his father yelled at the troubled teen for over an hour about how disappointed the family was in him and how is attitude had been destroying harmony built over generations. Brell slipped away from the family's underwater homestead in the dead of night.
Living on the streets he fell into a life of crime quickly as he was unable to use any terminal or replicator using his own credentials without leading his family to find him as soon as the data was logged. He stole whatever he could food to feed himself, trinkets, PADDs, even jewelry right off the wrists of unsuspecting tourists. Being a cocky youth he got into a fight with some local two bit thieves the fight ended when one pulled a blade and slashed Brell deep across his forearm. Injured Brell had to go to a hospital, lucky for him the parent they reached was his co-father Daro. Who pleaded with the misguided youth to return home. Cocky and still mad at his birth father Brell refused and vowed that he would never need any of them for anything again.
In the next two years Brell found himself gaining a reputation as the boy who could steal anything. He lived a comfortable life preying on tourists and those who didn't keep their PADDs close in hand. Then he was approached by the Orion syndicate who were in need of his talents. He quickly built up his worth to the syndicate obtaining whatever they asked him get, at whatever the cost, though he never found it necessary to harm anyone or cause much damage he would he would make his mark and get the goods usually without the person even noticing.
It was when he was tasked to break into the home of a Starfleet officer and steal a PADD containing information on upcoming raids that everything changed. He was to follow the officer's son Jason and use the boy to gain entrance. Brell tracked Jason to his home but the human saw him and ended up inviting him in eager to make new friends Brell almost went through with robbing him, instead the two boys ended up talking, and talking he opened up and when the boy's father arrived The man recolonized Brell from a security report nearly taking him into the civil police . Brell felt remorse for what he was sent to do, and gave himself up. Jason's father Lt. Ranson was Starfleet intelligence posing as a starfleet security officer, He took pity on the young Bolian and saw an opportunity, So instead of taking him in Ranson told him that if he helped uncover the syndicates operations on Bolarus, make amends to those he had robbed, and go home to his family that he would not be arrested. Bolian civil security forces gave their approval so long as he was in the custody of Starfleet security during the operation.
Brell did what he was told in fact he did it in record time, he returned all of the things he had stolen that he had yet to sell and worked off those things he could not return. He lived with Jason and his father while he worked to repay those the had wronged. Thanks to Brell's help Starfleet officers from the SB118 taskforce were able to arrest several members of the Orion syndicate, with precautions taken to make sure they could not trace the arrests back to him. It was time for the seventeen year old to return home. Lt. Ranson went with him that night and told his parents about what Brell had done and then what he had done to make amends. He was welcomed back into the arms of his teary eyed mother overjoyed that her son had finally returned. The next few years Brell spent with his family working with his co-father, and growing closer to his siblings, he and Jason kept in close contact.
Then the Dominion War broke out, Betazed fell to the enemy and the Bolarus sector became a battle front, Brell wanted to enter Starfleet to defend his homeland but due to his past it took him some time to get approval to join. With Lt. Ranson's support he was granted a position in Starfleet academy During the final year of the war, it may have been starfleet was willing to give him a chance or that they were desperate for new recruits.
His years at the academy were a pleasure of work for the young man eager to serve. More than once he had been temped to switch sides to the Starfleet Marine Corps but he preferred the goal of keeping order in security to the notion of being on the front line. His minor in engineering proved to be something he had a real knack for as well he could get lost in specs for hours and actually enjoyed warp theory classes.
Shortly after being posted to the Federation Embassy to Duronis II Brell was promoted to Chief Engineer, though he had come to the Embassy as a security officer his quick thinking had caught the eye of the captain who moved him into engineering following the death of Ensign Cambell.
After an undercover mission to recover a Betazoid from the Zalkonian Embassy, Brell was given bad news his brother Vlinn and his wife had died in an accident on Bolarus. He was shocked even more when he was told that he was now the guardian of his his nephew Morin. When a short time later a shuttle crashed into the embassy on Duronis II, Brell sent his nephew home to the homeworld to live his grandparents.
After the closing of the Embassy and the expulsion of the federation from Duronis II, the crew was assigned to the Constitution-B. Brell was instead transferred to McKinley Station. While there he was part of a team of engineers overseeing the refit of the USS Galaxy. Starfleet felt this was the best way to grant the Bolian's request of learning more about the line. Brell found the time there very enjoyable and learned the class like the back of his hand. Shortly after resuming duty on the USS Constitution Brell was Honored by receiving the Barclay bead during a formal annual ball at SB118. On this same night he learned that his sister Greatha is engaged to Jo'van a family friend that he had worked closely with on his co-father shimmershells farm.
After a short period of time aboard sb-118 Brell found himself wanting to return to his roots. To go home and provide his nephew with more normal bolian upbringing. He gave his resignation to starfleet and returned home to Bolarus IX. Moving himself and his nephew into his families homestead between underwater city of Tragon and the Rasara mainland.
He took a job with his co-fathers company Daro's Shimmershells, and began overhaul of the shimmershell farm upgrading equipment and expanding the clam spires.
In this time among his family Morin finally and slowly came out of the shell he had been in since his parents death. He takes an interest in botany.
With the help of an old friend who was now stationed on DS9 he established trade with a Ferengi company, Lok's Specialty Food Markets. The expansion forced Brell's co-father the companies owner Daro to do something he never thought would be needed and had a office/warehouse complex built next to the spires leaving the four rooms the company occupied in the families underwater homestead empty for the first time in generations. Not to mention the two state of the line cargo subs to ferry the extra loads to the mainland spaceports. The company continued its expansion and even more farming spires were constructed. Its number of employees made up mostly members the extended family and clan this was due to clan call to settle put out by Daro. Though the adherence to clan leaders is considered an outdated tradition in modern Bolian society a great number of the families extended relations responded eagerly.
As the business expanded, and more members of the extended family began to erect additional modules to the original homestead and farm spires over the subsequent years. As of 2391 the structures have a capacity of supporting up to 3,000. Due to the homesteads location in a squat deep trench Brell introduced the idea of establishing a relationship university of Bolarus to study the region, with the company taking on most of the cost. The extended family saw this as working for the greater benefit of all a tenant of Bolian philosophy and embraced the idea. The university accepted citing the homestead's trench having exceptional current pattern and water quality and the little impact from the farming. Construction began on research outpost module. In thanks for the company supporting nearly all of the cost of the research outpost the university donated a entertainment module with holosuites and holomat as well as a few shop spaces.
After the research outpost was completed Brell began to spend more and more time there along with his adolescent nephew Morin. He grew close to lead oceanographer Lokax and his family inviting them to reside in the homestead's original habitat module. During this time he was introduced to the lead scientist's daughter Lyldra and her husband Hars Vlin. The three became fast close friends. Seeing Brell's curiosity of ocean biology and innate technical skill first hand Lakax recommended him to the university's renowned Oceanography and Exobiology program using his credentials from Starfleet academy to satisfy core class requirements. Leaving his position in the family company Brell dived into his studies, evolution of sentient species from aquatic beginnings was a particular interest, later becoming his specialty. He spent his time bearing the heavy work load of a Bolian college well, often spending time studying with Morin, Time in consul with Lokax and Even more often studying late into the night when with Lyldra and Hars.
As Brell neared the end of his fourth year of the graduate program he was knocked off his feet when his closest friends invited him to join their marriage saying they had never felt they would find someone they could be so comfortable with. Brell was over-joyed and the wedding was preformed weeks after. With Daro as the head of Brell's family, and Lokax being the head of Lyldra's family officiating the three's union.
Knowing the study of other worlds oceans and how they lead to bare life can only be truly studied in the field In 2391 with the support of his spouses he submitted his reenlistment to Starfleet.
When he learned that he was mot only to return to Duronis II as his first assignment, but that his former crewmate Toni Turner was now in command of the new embassy, he knew he had made the right choice to reenlist. Upon arrival he found out that the senior staff spent a good deal of time doing missions aboard the Uss Thunder-A. Meaning that the ship did not need a third science officer on the senior staff. The Bolian was first worried he was not going to get the chance to study the oceans of Duronis II, but Fleet Captain Turner and he were able to come to a arrangement. With his engineering, security and science backgrounds he would don a red uniform and become an HCO officer while also being given dispensation to lead a team in the underwater science lab 3 at the embassy.
Interests and Hobbies
Deep sea diving: What had once seemed like a fact of life for someone who grew up in an underwater homestead Brell has come to to take pleasure in viewing underwater vistas and marine life in person and up close. This has also led to developing hobby of taking holophotos of his underwater excursions.
Boxing: After competing in the Embassy to Duronis II Boxing Tournament of 2383. He has kept practicing the sport though has never been quite able to master keeping his footing in check.
Vectorboarding: Brell has his own Vectorboard which hangs above his bed when not in use. ((Expand to read a Vectorboarding Sim))
((Embassy Grounds - Kofi Bar))
Cyrus: Does anyone have any plans for later?
Kassa: I haven’t thought that far ahead.
Brell: Me either.
Cyrus: Well if your not bust I might take some Holodeck time out and try a few new programs.
Kassa: Sounds interesting. I’m game. What kind of programs are they?
Brell: Have the two of you ever been vectorboarding?
Kassa: Vectorboarding? Is that anything like surfing?
Cyrus: Sky Surfing?
Brell: Well it's similar to surfing, only you ride air currents, I was hoping to go out this weekend around the island but with all of the trouble with the locals and Morin coming I think the holodeck would be safer.
Kassa: That’s for sure.
Cyrus: Safer than actually falling towards the planet at 900 miles per hour you mean........
Brell: We could start out with something easy like the atlantic run. And the safety protocols will be on so you wont have to worry about crashing.
Kassa: The Atlantic run is easy? Wow, I would hate see the hard one. ::laughs::
Cyrus: Yeah your not wrong there
Brell: It's a rush, I will just want to grab my board from my quarters first and change into more proper clothes.
Kassa: I don’t have a board, and what would be the proper clothing for surfing on air?
Cyrus: something pretty well attached I reckon
Brell: Swimming attire works best for low speeds.
Kassa: ::finishing her drink:: Shall we have another round before we go?
Brell: Why not!
::He finished his drink and stood feeling a little light headed::
Cyrus: Well I say we head down there straight away, I think better to do this after as little drink as possible
Kassa: Okay! Let’s do it!
Brell: So we meet at holodeck One in say twenty minutes?
Kassa: Twenty minutes it is. ::smiles:: see you there.
Cyrus: see you there
::Cyrus headed home, got changed into a tight diving suit, something that was well attached to his body, and would stay on when traveling at terminal velocity, he made his way to the holodeck and found Brell and Kassa waiting for him::
:: Hurriedly, Kassa makes her way to her quarters to change clothes. She felt a bit light-headed from the drinks, but she was anxious to try something new, and Brell’s idea sounds like a welcome diversion from the normal Embassy life. She changed quickly into her black two-piece swimsuit. The spots running down her sides made a perfect frame around her bare torso.::
:: Brell was the first to leave he made his way up to his quarters quickly and changed into his trunks. They were deep green in color and appeared to be even darker green against his light blue skin. After looking himself over in the mirror he removed his vectorboard from it's place above his bed and headed to the holodeck wasting no time. He was the first arrive::
((Embassy Grounds - Holodeck One))
Brell: Computer begin program Atlantic Run.
Computer: Program Ready.
::Brell entered and he was no longer in the embassy but on the beach of England on earth, the Atlantic run was a quick ride from England to new york.::
Brell: Computer, Two Vectorboards one for Ensign Kassa Quay and One for Lt. Cyrus Webb.
::The boards appeared and were the proper size for each of them, Brell leaned against the post and waited.::
Brell: Ah you made it.
Cyrus: Wow Brell this is quite a programme you have hear
Brell: Ah you made it.
Kassa: Yeah, I wouldn't miss this for anything.
Cyrus: so how do we get started, Webb activated his magnetic boots and stood on top of his board, it seemed stable enough but then it wasnt moving yet
Kassa: ::Trying to figure out how to balance herself on the board:: Hey, this thing won’t be still, oh wait, it may help if I put on the magnetic boots.
Cyrus: will this hold us in ok
Brell: Yeah well you strap you feet in, and then use the control pad to take off and set you speed, then it's up to you to stay level.
Kassa: ::strapping in her feet.:: Just how fast are we going to go?
Brell: Keep it around 100.
::Kassa accidentally pushes the foot pedal and turns on the reaction control thrusters, and zips away out onto the Atlantic::
Kassa: ::screaming:: WHERE ARE THE BREAKS?
Brell: The pedal to your left!
Kassa: ::doing as they said, halts the Vectorboard.:: Phew! ::wipes brow.:: Okay, I think I have it now. Where to?
::Brell speed up to her and webb came up behind him.
Cyrus: Yeah where to Brell, shall we get going
Brell: All right head due west and stick together, even in the holodeck you don't want to get lost.
::Cyrus got himself poised to go and turned to the others::
Cyrus: Well shall we do this.....
::Brell speed off and tilted upward doing a mid air flip.::
Brell: Let's go.
::Kassa, still a little nervous, force a smile and nodded the affirmative.::
::The three started off at a slow pace, gradually increasing speed. Brell, had to slow himself to not loose the other two. But he still managed to pull of a few low speed tricks.::
Kassa: ::grinning widely:: Look at the Porpoise are swimming beside us!
Cyrus: Its amazing, Brell this programme is fantastic, I never thought flying across the see at high speeds could be such fun
Brell: I have never seen an earth porpoise before!
::Suddenly, Kassa lost her balance and plunged into the water. Brell slowed to a stop and circled around her, Cyrus tried hard to laugh but if he was honest he couldn't help it, he swung around with Brell and parked so to speak near Kassa::
Kassa: ::coming up sputtering, treading water:: Hey! How do I get back up in the air?
Cyrus: try jumping!
Brell: Just stand up and tap the lift pedal!
Kassa: ::struggling to get up:: Easy for you to say. ::laughs::
::They waited until' they were back in the air.::
Brell: see easy!
Kassa: ::smiles:: Yeah, and fun too, even if you land in the water.
Webb: Well I will take your word for it, If I had wanted to go swimming we would have created a swimming pool programme ::Grinning at Kassa as he spoke::
Brell: I think we are about 300 miles from new york by now.
Kassa: Wow! I hadn't realized we could make it that far so fast.
Web: The speed of these things is outstanding, I really think im going to have to get one
::They got back on track and soon the statue of liberty could be seen in the distance::
Brell: Look!
Kassa: ::awestruck:: She is an incredible site.
Webb: My god, Ive never seen it before, this is quite an experience Brell
Brell: Gotta hand it to human's their planet is amazing!
Kassa: It is beautiful, but you should see the purple seas of Trill, and the beauty of the Tenaran Ice Cliffs.
Webb: There are many beautiful places in this galaxy, I am just disappointed that I've not seen many of them, we should go exploring some of them another day
Brell: I would like that! I have no idea what Trill or Betazed is like.
Kassa: The Tenaran Ice Cliffs are excellent for hiking too.
Webb: I guess in that sense I have had a sheltered life in that sense as I have not really seen much of the galaxy
::They flew past Ellis island and then Brell aimed in for landing signaling the others to follow.::
Brell: So guys how did you like it.
Kassa: ::smiling:: I loved it, Brell. It was an impressive trip.
Webb: Brell that was a fantastic trip, one day we need to go and do that for real
Brell: Maybe in a few months we could go out around Lokesh.
Kassa: ::grinning enthusiastically:: Okay, you’re on!
Webb: definitely that's a great idea guys
Brell: Computer end program.
::The scene faded and the cool mist and paradise of earth was gone.::
Brell: Well if you both don't mind I need to go get packed and moved into my new quarters.
Kassa: Thank you for t he great time, Brell. If I can help you with anything let me know.
Kassa: ::watching Brell leave, she turns to Cyrus.:: That was fun. I hadn’t even realized it was daylight. Maybe we could do it, or another program sometime.
Webb: Well do you fancy some breakfast, we could head down to the Kofi Bar
