Evan Delano: Difference between revisions

{{Delano}}

__notoc__

Evan's life has largely been defined by his struggle to find balance between his Vulcan and human halves, and this struggle has led to occasional emotional turbulence in his life. Of note, Evan pleaded guilty of assault, conduct unbecoming of an officer, and illegally using a Vulcan mind meld against an unarmed prisoner during a court martial in 2392. Evan was nearly expelled from Starfleet, but extenuating circumstances, and a previously sterling record ultimately led to clemency. Although Evan tried to return to duty following this incident, he eventually asked for his Starfleet commission to be officially suspended. Several months later, he accepted an assignment from [[Federation Security]] to infiltrate, observe, and report on the ''[[Reya-Laialara]]'', a Vulcan splinter group, from their hidden settlement.  

During Evan's time in Starfleet, he has also served on various vessels taking part in the Menthar Corridor expedition, including ''[[USS Garuda]]'' and ''[[USS Invicta]]''. He also served on the ''[[USS Tiger-A]]''.   

Evan is relatively tall by Vulcan and human standards, and has an athletic, broad-shouldered build honed over a lifetime of martial arts training and a continuing interest in other physically demanding recreational activities. He keeps his dark brown hair cut close to his scalp, but the widow's peak he inherited from his mother is still slightly visible. Like most Vulcanoids, he has pointed ears.

<h3>Summary</h3>

:Evan's parents met at a civilian engineering conference in New Berlin on Luna in 2365. Their meeting extended into a short-lived affair which ended when Evan's father, Kedall, confessed that he was married. Ashamed at what he saw as an "emotional outburst," Kedall returned to Vulcan and broke off all contact with Evan's mother. During his early years, Evan had a troubled childhood in which he struggled to control his erratic, sometimes violent emotions. He resented his stepfather and refused to accept his surname when he married his mother. Though Evan and his stepfather have since reconciled their differences, he continues to use his mother's maiden name. Evan's inability to control his emotions eventually got him into trouble after he severely injured another classmate after a minor disagreement.

===Summary===

:During this time, Evan was approached by Federation Security, who asked him to increase his contact with the [[Reya-Laialara]] with the ultimate goal of allowing him to join the enigmatic organization and report back on any suspicious activity. Evan accepted the assignment, and took the opportunity to join the organization at the end of 2392. Over the next few months, Evan sent back several reports before ultimately breaking off contact. He was quietly declared Missing in Action shortly thereafter. In 2394, the USS Veritas was dispatched to the Shadow's with orders to find and determine Delano's relationship to the assassination of a Starfleet captain.
