-Senior Chief Petty Officer '''Radi Rais''' is a [[Betazoid]] and an enlisted crewman in the Operations department. He is currently assigned to the [[USS Victory]].
+Senior Chief Petty Officer '''Radi Rais''' was a [[Betazoid]] and was an enlisted crewman in the Operations department. He died in mysterious circumstances on Stardate 238807.14.
-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.

-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.

 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 moved to the Operations division and, his retraining complete, was posted to the [[USS Victory]].
+After a mediocre career aboard the Victory Radi's past caught up with him right as the crew were transitioning to [[Starbase 118]]. He voluntarily checked himself into a psychiatric hospital, although one could make the argument that it was that or be dishonourably discharged.
+He died shortly after in mysterious circumstances.

 *[[MacKenna, Ash]] - Rais and Ash have not known each other long, but there seems to be a distinct attraction between the two. Having been on a couple of 'dates' and spending time together throughout their first shore leave, Ash has decided to allow the relationship to progress further despite her distinct lack of experience in that area of life. In fact, her first ever romantic kiss was experienced shortly before the USS Victory was sent to help with the Romulan evacuation while on the holodeck with Radi. Radi has doubts about his ability to satisfy her emotionally, but is pressing on regardless.
