T'Shol | T'Shol, Son of Rartoll was born in 2341 grew up aboard his father's freighter, the SS ''Kajunpak't'' along with his mother and his older brother O'Trel. Between cargo runs all across the Klingon Empire, the ''Kajunpak't'' would spend weeks or months at Qo'noS where the House of Qu'Voq's winery was located. T'Shol grew up hearing tales of his grandmother's career as an honorable warrior in the KDF and wished to join the army as well. His father and grandfather were overjoyed by his ambitions. However, their enthusiasm dulled when he explained that he wanted to be a medic. T'Shol was only able to secure his dream job thanks to his grandmother's intervention. However, T'Shol's KDF service was cut short by a long-forgotten anti-personnel mine he stumbled across while patrolling around camp in 2360. | ||
[[image:GRennLyras.png| | T'Shol lost his left leg and his rank, but he survived the explosion. Disillusioned with the state of medical science in Klingon society, T'Shol moved to the Federation. He completed his medical training with the Federation Medical Academy and was licensed to practice medicine in the federation in late 2364. T'Shol decided to Federationize his name while living on Earth and took the last name G'Renn in honor of his grandmother. During a conference on Vulcan, he met a geneticist named Lyras. The two struck up a conversation and T'Shol asked her out on a date. Lyras agreed and the two started a romantic relationship. T'Shol married her and became a civilian physician on Vulcan after completing medical school. While he can be disappointed that Anath is not more Klingon, he was overjoyed to hear that she wanted to become a doctor as well and encouraged her to pursue her dreams. | ||

[[image:GRennLyras.png|110px|thumb|right|Lyras]] | |||
Lyras of Vulcan was born to T'Sil and Valsur on Stardate 233610.28, sharing a birthday with her daughter Anath. Lyras was the eldest of her siblings, being older than her sister T'lain by seven years and and her brother Strennel by fourteen years. The family lived in [[ShirKahr]], where T'Sil served as a junior member of the Vulcan Council. Valsur is a supervisor in charge of overseeing outgoing space traffic departing from [[Vulcan Space Central]]. The couple hoped that all three of their children would attend the [[Vulcan Science Academy]]. Strennel did not, but both Lyras and T'lain did. Lyras double-majored in genetics and neuroscience. When she decided on a major for her graduate studies, she chose genetics. She earned a doctorate in genetics and found work with the Vulcan Biology Institute, a research institution with facilities in multiple Vulcan cities. Lyras moved from ShirKahr to T'Paal City on the other side of the Na'nam continent. She would meet her husband T'Shol while he was in medical school and married him in 2362. | |||
Despite being part of a Klingon house and raising three Vulcan/Klingon children, Lyras remained as controlled and emotionally disciplined as any other average Vulcan. This balance was only disturbed a few times. Most prominently, she was deeply hurt by the death of her son Avarak and had some difficulty containing that feeling of grief. Lyras also assumed that her children would have Vulcan mannerisms. Only her younger daughter Anath seemed to default to her Vulcan side more often than her Klingon side. This assumption was a cause of friction, such as when she arranged for Anath and Savok to be betrothed. Arguments aside, Anath loves her mother dearly and makes a point to engage in Vulcan traditions and customs with her even when the rest of the family does not. | |||

Jolash and Avarak both leaned more towards the Klingon side of the Klingon/Vulcan balance. While Anath was a vegetarian and enjoyed Vulcan art, her siblings were very fond of Klingon cuisine and preferred to spend their free time sparring. Jolash would sometimes antagonize Anath, but the sibling rivalry between the two sisters was always friendly and rarely resulted in actual fighting. More frequently, Jolash would take pride in her ability to play to Anath's ego or temper in order to get what she wanted. Many Mok'bara sparring matches began with Jolash suggesting Anath was just being cowardly by refusing her challenge. Deep down, Anath still enjoyed her sister's company and she was her best friend for the first seven or eight years of her life. However, that spot as Anath's favorite sibling was quickly claimed by her younger brother. | |||

Avarak was much less aggressive than Jolash and did strike more of a balance between traditionally Klingon and Vulcan traits. He looked up to both of his sisters and became inseparable from Anath and her friends once he was old enough to join their games. Anath tried to be the best role model she could be for her baby brother and tried not to involve him in the most reckless schemes that she and her best friend Alexa would come up with. Duirng a family trip to Terra Nova in December of 2380, Avarak contracted an unknown infection and died. Anath was mortified by the loss and spent months after the incident in a state of near catatonia, avoiding her family and staying locked in her room for days on end. Secretly, Anath blames herself for the incident. She allowed Avarak to wander arround the forests of Terra Nova freely when she was supposed to be supervising him, and believes that is when he encountered whatever infection claimed his life. | |||
[[image:RolQ.jpg|70px|thumb|left|[[Rol'Q]]]] | |||
Jolash's family is very close to Anath. Her husband Kolrriq and Anath do get along pretty well. Kolrriq was quick to accept Anath along with the rest of his new family. They also bonded over their shared interest in Klingon opera and the performing arts. Anath and Kolrriq have considered working together to finish an opera that she started writing during her undergraduate studies at Starfleet Academy. Anath is much closer to Jolash and Kolrriq's young son, Rol'Q. She spent most of her time during visits back home from medical school with her sister's family. She also stayed in touch frequently from Earth through subspace calls and letters. Rol'Q could not pronounce her name at first, and the nickname "Aunt Ana" has remained ever since. Each call from Anath aboard the {{USS|Blackwell}} or the {{USS|Columbia}} brought new tales of adventure out in the stars for Rol'Q to hear. | |||

[[Anath G'Renn/Savok|Savok]] was one of Anath's childhood friends and classmates at the Syrran Learning Center. Unlike many of his classmates, he found the illogical, unpredictable behavior of the G'Renn siblings and their Human friend Alexa more fascinating than distracting. He was often convinced to join them in their exploration of the deserts around T'Paal City or going on adventures in the city. This tendency would sometimes land Savok in the same trouble as his friends. However, he was also a moderating influence in their various misadventures who would speak up against particularly dangerous ideas. This friendship led Lyras and Savok's mother V'Len to betroth Savok and Anath, as was traditional for many Vulcans. | [[Anath G'Renn/Savok|Savok]] was one of Anath's childhood friends and classmates at the Syrran Learning Center.

Qu'Voq was born to Trovar during an era of misfortune for the House of Trovar. Trovar had made several business gambles during the war with the Federation and in the decades after. This debt and multiple poor harvests drained his health. Trovar died, indebted and dishonored, and the House of Qu'Voq was born. Qu'Voq made much wiser business decisions and consulted with market experts to improve the profitability of the winery. Within ten years, he had paid off his father's debts and began turning a profit. He used these returns wisely and purchased more land in the Mekro'vak region to expand the yay Sor Winery. His business continued to grow, and he married a KDF Lieutenant named G'Renn in 2321. They had a son the next year, as well as many more children. In recent years, the now-widowed Qu'Voq has taken a less active role in running the winery. | Qu'Voq was born to Trovar during an era of misfortune for the House of Trovar.

G'Renn was a decorated colonel in the Klingon Defense Force. She was born in 2299 to two members of an opera troupe travelling through the empire. Songs of great warriors and the wars they waged inspired her to join the army. Her natural skill with the ''bat'leth'' and confidence did not go unnoticed by her instructors. She started her career as a guard at notorious prison Rura Penthe. Killing two Gorn escapees with only a spear earned her a promotion to Lieutenant. She served on multiple ships and at multiple fortifications from 2320 to 2358. In 2359, she was promoted to commander and assigned as governor of a minor world. She helped lead forces in favor of Gowron during the Klingon Civil War and was a colonel during the Dominion War. She was killed in battle in early 2375. The title of Mistress of the House of Qu'Voq remains empty after her death. | G'Renn was a decorated colonel in the Klingon Defense Force.

[[Rartoll]] was Qu'Voq and G'Renn's first child. As a child, he was obsessed with the idea of joining the Klingon Defense Force like his mother. He would spend hours reading about military history and honing his weapon skills. However, G'Renn instilled in him the importance of all aspects of society in ensuring the prosperity of the Klingon Empire. Rartoll would later go on to teach this same lesson to his son T'Shol and inspire his unusual career path. Rartoll apprenticed with an experienced winemaker at the winery and learned all there was to learn about the family business during his childhood. He assisted his father in turning the successful business into a small economic empire and was the first to volunteer when Qu'Voq suggested that the house invest in their own freighters to help eliminate the middlemen in getting their product to other worlds of the empire. Rartoll and an old Gorn drinking buddy assembled a crew and the SS ''Kajunpak't'' departed shortly after under Captain Rartoll's command at only 17. | [[Rartoll]] was Qu'Voq and G'Renn's first child.

Immediate Family
Parents
T'Shol, Son of Rartoll was born in 2341 grew up aboard his father's freighter, the SS Kajunpak't along with his mother and his older brother O'Trel. Between cargo runs all across the Klingon Empire, the Kajunpak't would spend weeks or months at Qo'noS where the House of Qu'Voq's winery was located. T'Shol grew up hearing tales of his grandmother's career as an honorable warrior in the KDF and wished to join the army as well. His father and grandfather were overjoyed by his ambitions. However, their enthusiasm dulled when he explained that he wanted to be a medic. T'Shol was only able to secure his dream job thanks to his grandmother's intervention. However, T'Shol's KDF service was cut short by a long-forgotten anti-personnel mine he stumbled across while patrolling around camp in 2360.
T'Shol lost his left leg and his rank, but he survived the explosion. Disillusioned with the state of medical science in Klingon society, T'Shol moved to the Federation. He completed his medical training with the Federation Medical Academy and was licensed to practice medicine in the federation in late 2364. T'Shol decided to Federationize his name while living on Earth and took the last name G'Renn in honor of his grandmother. During a conference on Vulcan, he met a geneticist named Lyras. The two struck up a conversation and T'Shol asked her out on a date. Lyras agreed and the two started a romantic relationship. T'Shol married her and became a civilian physician on Vulcan after completing medical school. While he can be disappointed that Anath is not more Klingon, he was overjoyed to hear that she wanted to become a doctor as well and encouraged her to pursue her dreams.
Lyras of Vulcan was born to T'Sil and Valsur on Stardate 233610.28, sharing a birthday with her daughter Anath. Lyras was the eldest of her siblings, being older than her sister T'lain by seven years and and her brother Strennel by fourteen years. The family lived in ShirKahr, where T'Sil served as a junior member of the Vulcan Council. Valsur is a supervisor in charge of overseeing outgoing space traffic departing from Vulcan Space Central. The couple hoped that all three of their children would attend the Vulcan Science Academy. Strennel did not, but both Lyras and T'lain did. Lyras double-majored in genetics and neuroscience. When she decided on a major for her graduate studies, she chose genetics. She earned a doctorate in genetics and found work with the Vulcan Biology Institute, a research institution with facilities in multiple Vulcan cities. Lyras moved from ShirKahr to T'Paal City on the other side of the Na'nam continent. She would meet her husband T'Shol while he was in medical school and married him in 2362.
Despite being part of a Klingon house and raising three Vulcan/Klingon children, Lyras remained as controlled and emotionally disciplined as any other average Vulcan. This balance was only disturbed a few times. Most prominently, she was deeply hurt by the death of her son Avarak and had some difficulty containing that feeling of grief. Lyras also assumed that her children would have Vulcan mannerisms. Only her younger daughter Anath seemed to default to her Vulcan side more often than her Klingon side. This assumption was a cause of friction, such as when she arranged for Anath and Savok to be betrothed. Arguments aside, Anath loves her mother dearly and makes a point to engage in Vulcan traditions and customs with her even when the rest of the family does not.
Siblings
Jolash and Avarak both leaned more towards the Klingon side of the Klingon/Vulcan balance. While Anath was a vegetarian and enjoyed Vulcan art, her siblings were very fond of Klingon cuisine and preferred to spend their free time sparring. Jolash would sometimes antagonize Anath, but the sibling rivalry between the two sisters was always friendly and rarely resulted in actual fighting. More frequently, Jolash would take pride in her ability to play to Anath's ego or temper in order to get what she wanted. Many Mok'bara sparring matches began with Jolash suggesting Anath was just being cowardly by refusing her challenge. Deep down, Anath still enjoyed her sister's company and she was her best friend for the first seven or eight years of her life. However, that spot as Anath's favorite sibling was quickly claimed by her younger brother.
Avarak was much less aggressive than Jolash and did strike more of a balance between traditionally Klingon and Vulcan traits. He looked up to both of his sisters and became inseparable from Anath and her friends once he was old enough to join their games. Anath tried to be the best role model she could be for her baby brother and tried not to involve him in the most reckless schemes that she and her best friend Alexa would come up with. Duirng a family trip to Terra Nova in December of 2380, Avarak contracted an unknown infection and died. Anath was mortified by the loss and spent months after the incident in a state of near catatonia, avoiding her family and staying locked in her room for days on end. Secretly, Anath blames herself for the incident. She allowed Avarak to wander arround the forests of Terra Nova freely when she was supposed to be supervising him, and believes that is when he encountered whatever infection claimed his life.
Jolash's family is very close to Anath. Her husband Kolrriq and Anath do get along pretty well. Kolrriq was quick to accept Anath along with the rest of his new family. They also bonded over their shared interest in Klingon opera and the performing arts. Anath and Kolrriq have considered working together to finish an opera that she started writing during her undergraduate studies at Starfleet Academy. Anath is much closer to Jolash and Kolrriq's young son, Rol'Q. She spent most of her time during visits back home from medical school with her sister's family. She also stayed in touch frequently from Earth through subspace calls and letters. Rol'Q could not pronounce her name at first, and the nickname "Aunt Ana" has remained ever since. Each call from Anath aboard the USS Blackwell or the USS Columbia brought new tales of adventure out in the stars for Rol'Q to hear.
Husband
Savok was one of Anath's childhood friends and classmates at the Syrran Learning Center. Unlike many of his classmates, he found the illogical, unpredictable behavior of the G'Renn siblings and their Human friend Alexa more fascinating than distracting. He was often convinced to join them in their exploration of the deserts around T'Paal City or going on adventures in the city. This tendency would sometimes land Savok in the same trouble as his friends. However, he was also a moderating influence in their various misadventures who would speak up against particularly dangerous ideas. This friendship led Lyras and Savok's mother V'Len to betroth Savok and Anath, as was traditional for many Vulcans.
Anath felt very conflicted over the arranged marriage. She was very upset that her mother had made the decision for her and refused to go through with it because of that fact alone. On the other hand, she did have a close, genuine bond with Savok that later blossomed into love. After several years and discussing the issue with the ship's counselor, Anath reconciled her feelings for Savok and the anger she felt towards Lyras for arranging a marriage for her. She proposed to Savok aboard the USS Blackwell, and they were married aboard the USS Columbia in a ceremony officiated by Theo Whittaker.
The House of Qu'Voq
House History
The House of Qu'Voq is a minor house in Klingon society. While the family history does have many great warriors, the house is best-known for their involvement in trade and commerce. in 2296, Trovar died and passed the title as Head of the House to his young son Qu'Voq. Trovar owned a large winery in the Mekro'vak region. Under Qu'Voq's leadership, yay Sor Winery (Translation: The Tree of Victory) became a popular source of bloodwine and other alcoholic beverages in the Klingon Empire. Qu'voQ and his wife G'Renn ruled the House of Qu'Voq together until G'Renn's death during the Dominion War. Qu'Voq has not remarried and continues to operate the yay Sor Winery on his own. His younger sons and daughter assist in keeping the winery up and running. His eldest son and daughter both operate freighters that carry products from the winery to other parts of the galaxy. Some in the Klingon Empire consider the House of Qu'Voq to be an embarrassment because of the presence of several Vulcans in the family.
House Leaders
Qu'Voq was born to Trovar during an era of misfortune for the House of Trovar. Trovar had made several business gambles during the war with the Federation and in the decades after. This debt and multiple poor harvests drained his health. Trovar died, indebted and dishonored, and the House of Qu'Voq was born. Qu'Voq made much wiser business decisions and consulted with market experts to improve the profitability of the winery. Within ten years, he had paid off his father's debts and began turning a profit. He used these returns wisely and purchased more land in the Mekro'vak region to expand the yay Sor Winery. His business continued to grow, and he married a KDF Lieutenant named G'Renn in 2321. They had a son the next year, as well as many more children. In recent years, the now-widowed Qu'Voq has taken a less active role in running the winery.
G'Renn was a decorated colonel in the Klingon Defense Force. She was born in 2299 to two members of an opera troupe travelling through the empire. Songs of great warriors and the wars they waged inspired her to join the army. Her natural skill with the bat'leth and confidence did not go unnoticed by her instructors. She started her career as a guard at notorious prison Rura Penthe. Killing two Gorn escapees with only a spear earned her a promotion to Lieutenant. She served on multiple ships and at multiple fortifications from 2320 to 2358. In 2359, she was promoted to commander and assigned as governor of a minor world. She helped lead forces in favor of Gowron during the Klingon Civil War and was a colonel during the Dominion War. She was killed in battle in early 2375. The title of Mistress of the House of Qu'Voq remains empty after her death.
House Members
Rartoll was Qu'Voq and G'Renn's first child. As a child, he was obsessed with the idea of joining the Klingon Defense Force like his mother. He would spend hours reading about military history and honing his weapon skills. However, G'Renn instilled in him the importance of all aspects of society in ensuring the prosperity of the Klingon Empire. Rartoll would later go on to teach this same lesson to his son T'Shol and inspire his unusual career path. Rartoll apprenticed with an experienced winemaker at the winery and learned all there was to learn about the family business during his childhood. He assisted his father in turning the successful business into a small economic empire and was the first to volunteer when Qu'Voq suggested that the house invest in their own freighters to help eliminate the middlemen in getting their product to other worlds of the empire. Rartoll and an old Gorn drinking buddy assembled a crew and the SS Kajunpak't departed shortly after under Captain Rartoll's command at only 17.
Rhila was born to a family of small subsistence farmers on Ganalda IV. In the hopes of giving their daughter a better standard of living, her parents arranged for her to live with her cousin on Boreth, where he ran a blacksmith's shop that produced weapons. She worked as a clerk and became very proficient in the logistics of running a business. After her cousin's death, Rhila used her savings to move to Qo'noS and eventually became a clerk working for the House of Qu'Voq. She and Rartoll began courting each other and she accompanied him on several early freight runs as quartermaster before eventually marrying him in 2339.
O'Trel was the first child of Rartoll and Rhila and older brother to T'Shol. He studied the ancient tales of Kahless and was at one point a monk in training. However, he met a traveler named Grella and was so enamored by her that he gave up the monk lifestyle to travel the Empire with her. The couple did odd jobs and kept exploring for several years before settling down back on Qo'noS and opening a workshop. The couple never had children, and Grella died in 2394. Because of this, O'Trel took a great interest in the lives of his nieces and nephew, seeing them as the future of Rartoll's lineage.
While the House of Qu'Voq was never the most conventional, T'Shol was an unusual Klingon even by their standards. He wished to join the KDF as a field medic. Rartoll and Qu'Voq tried to talk him out of it, but his grandmother G'Renn saw the wisdom in having doctors in the army and used her influence to secure T'Shol a position in the army and medical training. All went according to plan for several years until T'Shol was seriously injured by a mine. He lost his left leg and was forced out of the army. This and his subsequent departure to the Federation and marriage to a Vulcan woman is a contributing factor to the House of Qu'Voq's social standing.
T'Shol's family is technically part of the house, but not all members of the family are treated that way. Jolash G'Renn and her family are mostly welcome and treated as equals. Avarak G'Renn was also accepted by most of the family when he was alive because of his very Klingon nature. Their mother Lyras is usually treated as an outsider on visits, and has become accustomed to being mostly ignored by her husband's family.
Anath and the House of Qu'Voq
Anath in particular is seen as a disappointment to many of her Klingon relatives. While Lyras behaving like a Vulcan is something expected, Anath's lean towards Vulcan mannerisms and diet is often characterized as a betrayal of her Klingon heritage. Her uncle O'Trel in particular felt that she had chosen to be fully Vulcan and turned her back on her Klingon half. It was even suggested that she should seek cosmetic surgery to remove her forehead ridges. However, not every Klingon in the family treated her that way. Qu'Voq himself was mostly indifferent to the issue and had little issue with Anath being a part of his house. G'Renn rarely saw her great-grandchildren before her death, but had encouraged a young Jolash to embrace both her Klingon and Vulcan halves in any way she wanted. O'Trel's wife Grella was also sympathetic to Anath's plight and would try to accommodate her and Lyras' vegetarian diets when the family visited Qo'noS.
