Stats

  • Full Name: Jhen Thelev
  • Current Rank: Lieutenant Commander
  • Race: Andorian
  • Date of Birth: Stardate 235707.18
  • Age: 28
  • Gender: Male

Appearance

  • Height: 6'1" (not including antennae)
  • Hair Color: White
  • Eye Color: Blue/Black
  • Skin Tone: Light blue
  • Birthmarks, Scars: Missing three toes from his left foot. His scarred foot is a result of crash-landing a Runabout, the USS Cedar.
  • Tattoos/Body Modifications: None
  • Build: Slightly taller than most Andorian males but also slightly thinner. The Andorian origins as a warrior race are evidenced in his wiry build.
  • Carriage: Carries himself with confidence. Strides quickly when he needs to get somewhere.
  • Poses: Tends to rub his chin when deep in thought.
  • Taste in Clothing (when off duty): Generaly something smart but unremarkable, more comfortable than fashionable.
  • Voice: Quiet and deep, but without much of an Andorian accent.
  • Handedness: Right

Manner

  • Quarters: Quite sparse. Most objects are functional and well designed. The rooms are almost devoid of clutter apart from the bedroom where mementos from family and friends are carefully placed.
  • Favorite Room: Jhen's favourite place to think is in a holoprogram of Andor, made for him by his older sister when he left for the academy. Other places include the bridge, his quarters and anywhere sociable, such as the Double Shot.
  • Mannerisms: Presents a confident exterior, makes a lot of eye contact when talking. His antennae tend to be a good indicator of his mood - drooping when upset or twitching when alert.
  • Physical Limitations: As an Andorian, he can withstand more physical punishment than the average Terran. Keeps himself fit and active.
  • Temperment: Very friendly and outgoing. Like most Andorians, he keeps his anger in check but it can be fierce if it boils over.
  • Religion/Spiritual Devotion: Not religious.

Personality

A forthright individual, Jhen Thelev is not afraid to say what he thinks, even to superior officers. Likewise, he believes others are entitled to their views and this makes Jhen a (usually) very tolerant person. He has a good sense of humour. Although he doesn't have a great deal of friends, he treasures those he does have treating them like an extended family.

Hobbies and Pastimes

  • Languages
    • Klingon (Reading/writing and speaking fluently)
    • Vulcan & Romulan (Reading/writing only. Although he can speak Vulcan and Romulan a little, his accent is appaling)
  • Ritual combat
    • Jhen practises the use of the Andorian chaka to channel his races famously explosive temper.
  • History - Myths & Legends
    • He enjoys reading ancient Andorian sagas, Klingon ballads and the Terran history of Ancient Greece.
  • Atmospheric flyers
    • Jhen has been involved in this hobby for many years, flying in amateur leagues in his younger days. He continued the hobby throughout the academy, joing the student flying team, but hasn't had much of a chance to try the real thing since being assigned to the Ronin.

Food and Drink

  • Food
    • Owon egg omlette - not to everyone's taste, Jhen likes his Earth-style with onions and some strong cheddar cheese.
  • Drink
    • Tarkalean tea - bitter and strong with just a splash of milk.
    • Andorian brandy
    • Guiness - an acquired taste that Jhen blames on Ethan Brice.

Likes and Dislikes

  • Klingons
    • Klingons and Andorians are both warrior cultures and Jhen finds a lot in common with them.
  • Vulcans
    • Jhen has no time for what he describes as; "Smug, self-satisfied logic-fanatics." As a race, he sees the Vulcans as aloof, arrogant and painfully superior, although he is prepared to try taking each Vulcan as an individual. Once famously punched a Vulcan while at the academy.
  • Hypocracy
    • He hates nothing more than a hypocrite and thinks people should say what they mean and mean what they say.

Ambitions and Goals

To progress within Starfleet and earn the respect of his peers.

Personal Achievements and Disappointments

  • Marital Status: Single

Personal History

"I’ll take a seat, shall I? Thankyou Sir.

Well, some people pronounce it as ‘Jen’ but, more accurately, in the Terran tongue it’s ‘Yen Thelev’. I know, the universal translator does have a bit of difficulty with it. But I’m used to it by now.

Yes I grew up on Andor itself, that’s right. I have four parents, actually - two mothers and two fathers. Yes, it can get complicated! They’re all responsible for getting me here today; my first parents are both in politics, that’s how they met actually. My first mother was a diplomatic aide for the Federation ambassador to the Klingons at one point. They could be a little strict in their regime at times but they taught me discipline.

My second parents? Well, to hear my uncle tell it they were pair of tearaways! They ran an insersteller merchant business, trading shield technology I think, all over the Federation and beyond. They tell me a lot of stories about the adventures they got into, though I’m not sure which ones to believe. The way my uncle tells it they sound like a couple of Ferengi smugglers! Ha! no i don’t know how they all got together - I’ve asked, but I never get a straight answer out of any of them, they mostly just laugh.

Still, I grew up with stories of distant planets and cultures, and tales of space adventures so when I was a child I’d dream about the galaxy. I was quite a keen astronomer when I was young and read up on all sorts of obscure civilisations. My first mother saw this as a fine opportunity to teach me the Klingon language. Yes, I still practice it when I can. My older sister is following my first parents - she’s already making a name for herself in local politics on Andor. I know she’s hoping for an ambassadorial position eventually. My younger sister is still in school, so I’m not sure which route she’ll be taking yet - I’ll work on her, though, try to get her to join Starfleet, too.

My school days were good. Very good actually. I did well at all of my subjects and had the time to learn to fly. Yes I had my own atmospheric racer, a bit of a hobby of mine. Took part in some amateur events and did alright for myself. No, not well enough for a career, sadly! Well, I wanted to send in my application to the Academy as soon as I left school, but my fathers persuaded me otherwise, thought some extra experience would help. So I spent three years working for the Andorian Couriers. It was mostly in-system work, but I did get to visit Earth twice and Tellar once. Well I did a variety of roles; sensors, helm, navigation, communication and some engineering. It gave me a pretty broad scope, let me pick up some skills in all aspects of spacecraft, really. Yes the extra experience did do me well - I submitted my application to the Academy when I was 22 and was accepted first time. With hindsight, I don’t think I would have made it in when I was 18.

My time at the Academy? Well, as you can see from the records I did well. Top five of the class for shuttle piloting, navigation and communicator operations. I think I’m somewhere in the top ten for most of the other primary subjects, too, though I know my sciences let me down a bit. My tutors said my greatest strengths were my adaptability and perception - I know I’m not the greatest engineer in the galaxy but I can usually cope with unfamilier technology and I’m good at spotting when things aren’t right. I enjoyed sports, too. Yes it was mostly team sports but I did get the chance to take up flying again and take part in some of the solo races.

Well, I took the extra language module as I already knew Klingon pretty well so thought it’d be a good choice for some extra credits. I struggled on the Romulan section though; I understand their alphabet so I’m better at reading and writing it than at speaking, something to do with the context and inflections. I know I’ve got a good, solid selection of grades there so hopefully I’ll be able to use them as a foundation to build better achievements.

The social activities? Well, as I’m sure any of my classmates will tell you I didn’t avoid the parties! No, I wouldn’t consider myself a 'party animal' at all, I just prefer company to being alone. I must admit I don’t like the limelight too much myself. Close friends? I only had a few really close friends - the same is true of most Andorians, we’re very family and clan orientated so only have a small number of very close companions. Yes, I consider my friends from the Academy as family and I can be a bit overprotective of family.

Oh, that’s in there, is it? Well, the report did say it was the Vulcan who started it, but I know it was stupid of me. I do consider myself an open person and like to take everyone on an individual basis, but he was being typically Vulcan and arrogant and I don’t like seeing one of my friends bullied. Well that’s true, but Andorians aren’t as bad as Klingons! We do our best to reign in our aggressive tendancies. That’s right, the ritual duelling. I have a holodeck program where I practice when I can, it’s a very good way to relax and I’m very proficient with the Chaka now, that’s the Andorian duelling dagger. No, I’ve definitely matured since then and I always try to keep my emotions under control. I know it can make me a bit impulsive sometimes but I don’t think that is a bad thing - sometimes it’s good to act when others hesitate. It’s also part of being able to adapt to new situations, I think.

That’s all? Well, thankyou for your time, Sir. I’m really looking forward to it, should be a challenge.”
