NOTE: This character is still a draft.

Chief Petty Officer Radi Rais is a Betazoid and an enlisted crewman in the Operations department. He is currently unassigned.

Unlike most Betazoids, he is a "black hole"; he has absolutely no telepathic ability and his mind cannot be read by telepaths or empaths. Accordingly, he is immune to telepathic invasion and psychic forms of attack, although his "disability" has caused him significant distress throughout his life; to a Betazoid, the situation is akin to being born deaf.

Telepathic Condition

- Transmitting -

Despite extensive practice, therapy and hope Rais cannot transmit any thoughts, emotions or feelings beyond his own head. This condition was present since adolescence, when typical Betazoids gain the telepathic abilities.

- Receiving -

Rais is a black hole. Casual attempts to read his mind, even by powerful telepaths, always end in complete failure (as though there was no sentience present at all). Directed and focused telepathy, or prolonged attempts to actively read his mind, can result in mild headaches and/or nosebleeds in the practitioner.

Attempting to 'go deep' (usually by incredibly intrusive means such as a Vulcan mind meld) may cause permanent harm to the practitioner. This has only occurred once in his lifetime, when a Vulcan doctor attempted to 'repair' the issue with an invasive mind meld. The doctor's consciousness was completely erased in the process.

- Other -

Rais does not dream. Chemical hallucinogens and the like function normally.

Mannerisms

Quarters: Rais is a neat freak. Every corner of his cadet quarters is kept meticulously clean.
Favorite Room: Rais loves any room with a natural view into space. He prefers to see the stars with his naked eyes.
Mannerisms/Habits: Rais is uncomfortable around Betazoids due to his condition (and, by and large, they tend to be remarkably uncomfortable around him). Due to discrimination against males in Betazoid culture, Rais is a mild masculinist and believes that anything a woman can do a man can do as well.
Temperment: Rais is even handed and complete in his duty, although he can be fussy and pedantic at times.
Religion/Spiritual Devotion: Rais follows the complicated polytheist Betazoid philosophy, although not strongly. He finds the patriarchal nature of organized religion oppressive.
Fears/Phobias: Betazoids with little telepathic abilities are more prone to psychosis and violent behavior. Especially due to time spent as a Marine, Rais is greatly concerned about his own mental stability.

Career

Rais spent four years in the Starfleet Marine Corps, being posted to various ships and stations in the Ihassa region. He was part of the SFMC Logistics division. When Deep Space 17 was occupied by the Vaadwaur, he was captured and affected by the chemical brainwashing the Vaadwaur inflicted on prisoners.

He has never discussed what he did under the influence of their chemical and psychological brainwashing although it obviously affected him profoundly. After some soul searching he eventually decided to transfer to a less violent position. He transferred to Operations and, his retraining complete, is awaiting his first posting.
