While not shy by any stretch of the imagination, Iljor | While not shy by any stretch of the imagination, Iljor was a contemplative and quiet man and not one given to loquaciousness. There was a serene grace about him. He was perhaps most animated discussing his passion in life: archaeology. He was also extremely humble, eschewing recognition when he receives service ribbons and is almost always embarrassed by the attention The kind to study and take in a room before engaging, he was diligent and careful in everything that he does. He approached assignments with scientific methodology such as proposing a debate (as opposed to a diplomatic summit) between the Thama and the Nascaik over the rights to an uninhabited planet. | ||
He | He was often reluctant to confide in people when faced with a personal challenge, believing that if he does he will be burdening them with his problems. When he was confronted with allegations about his parents' activities in the Occupation of Bajor (see below for more information.), it was several months before he confided in somebody. | ||
During the course of his service aboard the {{USS|Resolution}} and the {{USS|Excalibur-A}}, Iljor grew in confidence and found it easier to make connections with people. After the destruction of the {{USS|Resolution}} he developed a more assertive streak, which initially led to clashes with Lieutenant [[Vitor Silveira]]- but the two quickly became friends. Others aboard the Excalibur have remarked that he has become a more commanding presence. | |||

Iljor began to work on a defence against CloQ in the immediate aftermath of their latest visit, collaborating with [[Addison MacKenzie]] and [[Hallia Yellir]]. A short time later, he was awoken in the middle of the night by [[Karrod Niac]] who announced that Iljor's first examination as part of the Command Training Program had begun. He was tasked with escorting a specialist- Niac- to the bridge using only the ship's crawlspaces and tube. The caveat was that they had to go via engineering to pick up a critical piece of equipment. A short while into the examination, an 'explosion' rocked the Excalibur, forcing Iljor to take a detour to investigate. It transpired that a photon grenade had exploded during routine maintenance, trapping two crewmen behind isolation fields and endangering their lives. Iljor came up with a solution and was determined to help despite Niac's protestations that it might cost him marks in his examination. Despite this, Iljor was unmoved and was determined to render aid. Once the examination had finished, Iljor realised that the true test was how he faced making command decisions in a situation where there was no right answer. Commander Niac then revealed he had passed with flying colours- although both of them were subsequently were ordered to appear in front of Commander MacKenzie, who had not been briefed on the examination thanks to a clerical error on the part of Commander Niac. MacKenzie allowed the result of the examination but put the 'fear of the Prophets' into Iljor, who already found her incredibly intimidating. | Iljor began to work on a defence against CloQ in the immediate aftermath of their latest visit, collaborating with [[Addison MacKenzie]] and [[Hallia Yellir]].

During their dinner, Iljor began to realise that he was feeling burned out and while he was reluctant to do so, he made an appointment the infamous Doctor Gott. Around this time, Iljor also met [[Maz Rodan]] and [[Quentin Collins]] whose starship, the {{USS|Arrow}} was visiting [[Deep Space 224]] after an unintended trip outside the galaxy. The trio embarked on an expedition to investigate a Category-5 ion storm in The Borderlands. | ||
At a ceremony on the hull of the Excalibur, Iljor was awarded the Good Conduct, Quantum Reality Service and Department Chief Ribbons. | |||
==== A Diplomatic Disaster==== | |||
[[File:Son'a_Battlecruiser.jpg|250px|thumb|Right|A Son'a Battlecruiser]]After an extended stay at [[Deep Space 224]], the Excalibur was assigned to mediate an unknown dispute between the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Republic and the Son'a Solidarity. At the ensuing briefing, Iljor briefed the senior staff on all three parties and was then assigned to find ways to make the visiting delegations more comfortable, with the aim of making them more flexible during the negotiations. During this time, the replicator in his office (along with every other aboard the ship) malfunctioned and Iljor overstepped his responsibilities when he ordered [[Hallia Yellir]] to take the replicators offline. He was then assigned to greet the Klingon delegation and took a shine to Ambassador Tork. He also shared his unease at their assignment with [[Genkos Adea]] before arriving early for 'Taco Night'. During the dinner, Iljor gave up his seat for Doctor Gott when the Ferengi arrived as Tork's "plus one". He was knocked to the ground when Tork collapsed and took the aforementioned Ferengi with him. After Gott began to panic and the other Ambassadors had also collapsed, Iljor escorted him out of the Round Table and then turned to investigating what had happened. After he discovered a microvirus in a chili, he reported it to Commodore Nicholotti and Commander MacKenzie and recalled that Acamarians had developed a method of targeting specific people's DNA through the use of a virus. He then suggested that the Acamarians may have traded that knowledge or that another species had developed something similar. | |||
