Ensign Drex is currently serving as a Science Officer at Denali Station.

Drex is very curious and has a lot of imagination. The latter often led him to small misunderstandings, especially with his teachers.

He loves to draw, especially landscapes and architectural structures, but he is also fascinated by alien cultures and their history. He loved to listen to his mother’s story about her studies and discoveries.

He is a good swimmer and he is also a good sailor and he loves to fly on the water surface on a fast single-handed skiff.

Since he left Denobula and moved away from his twin sister, you may hear him chatting loudly to himself from time to time.

Childhood

Born in Kalus (Denobula) to Jorx, an oceanographer, and Lora, a xeno-anthropologist, Drex has a twin sister Ayra, born a few minutes before him, with whom he shares a very special bond.

Kalus is a medium-sized coastal city in the Vespian region and Drex spent his childhood playing on the beach with his sister and half-brother Ral and trying out all the water sports available.

He attended the local schools with mixed results, but he always managed to avoid failing any of his classes.

From an early age he showed an interest in the visual arts and more than a once he decorated the walls of his home without permission.

He mainly lived with his mother and although he had a good relationship with his father, who taught him to sail, he has always got on better with his stepfather Dorji. Drex loved to draw and Dorji always encouraged his passion and taught him everything he knew about art and architecture.

Drex has always been fascinated by Ral's charisma. Well aware of this, Ral has often convinced his less daring little brother to join him on his raids. When Drex and Ayra were 10 years old and Ral was 12, the three of them secretly set out to explore the coast in Jorx's small sailboat. They were surprised by bad weather, and only the day after they were found shipwrecked on one of the uninhabited islands. The fear and scolding of his parents did not stifle Ral's adventurous spirit nor his influence on Drex and Ayra.

Throughout their childhood Ayra and Drex were inseparable, so much so that they had a secret language that was theirs alone, though they were able to understand each other perfectly even without the need to speak

Teenage Years

As he grew older, Drex began to increasingly neglect his schoolwork in favour of his passions: sailing and drawing.

In his third year of high school, he got into trouble for painting a mural on the school wall. The work was actually the result of cooperation between Ral, Drex and some mates from their sailing team, but Drex shouldered all the blame. The humiliation of being publicly reprimended by the school board left Drex with a deep discomfort with crowds and being the centre of attention.

To avoid further trouble, he was forced to quit the sailing team and concentrate more on his studies.

A few months later, the influence of his brother, who had moved to another city to study following his mother, disappeared.

The bond with Ayra remained strong,despite their different but complementary interests. During a stay at their maternal grandparents' house, the two found some of their mother's notes from her early research. These old writings gave the boy a sense of his mother's passion for her work.

High school was coming to an end and Drex unexpectedly decided to enter the Denoblan Academy of Sciences. The few months dedicated to study were not enough to pass the entrance exam, so Dorji convinced him to try for the School of Architecture.

Pre-Academy Years

After he graduated, in 2375, he joined his stepfather’s business and started to work with him and his son Ral.

Ral not only is Drex’s step-brother, but also his best friend.

For almost a decade he was quite comfortable drawing architectural solutions, he even got involved in a big project for the renewal of the town council building, but in the end, he decided to apply again for the Science Academy.

This time he passed and in 2390 he got his degree in Xenoanthropology. One of his mother's acquaintances offered him to join an archeological expedition on an abandoned planet in a not too far sector. He accepted, enthusiastically, and left Denobula for the first time.

The experience struck him like Saul on the road to Damascus, so he decided to apply for the Starfleet Academy
