Senior Chief Petty Officer Radi Rais is a Betazoid and an enlisted crewman in the Operations department. He is currently a patient in a psychiatric hospital on Betazed.

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.

Radi's writer can be found here. His OOC rank is Lieutenant.

Biographic Information

  • Full Name:Radi Rais.
  • Age: 25. Birthday 236211.09 (9th of November 2362).
  • Place of Birth: Ohmallera, Betazed.
  • Species: Betazoid
  • Gender: Male
  • Hair color: Brown
  • Eye color: Black
  • Height: 6'2"
  • Telepathic status: -1. Radi cannot have his mind read, nor does he possess any form of telepathic ability at all. See below for more information.
  • Place of Birth: Betazed
  • Tattoos/Body Modifications: Radi has a tattoo of a large bird between his shoulderblades, along with various predatory animals on his upper arms and shoulder. On his upper arm he has a tattoo of the Starfleet Marine Corps emblem and motto, 'Semper Fi'.
  • Skin Tone: Olive.
  • Handedness: Left.
  • Status: Undergoing psychiatric treatment.


Family

  • Parents: Jhaan Rais (deceased) and Lita Rais (deceased). Both parents were killed in 2388 during the bombing of Ohmallera.
  • Siblings: Four brothers.
  • Spouse: none
  • Children: none


Telepathic Condition

- Transmitting -

Despite extensive practice, therapy and hope Rais cannot transmit any thoughts, emotions or feelings beyond his own head. This condition was present since adolescence, when typical Betazoids gain the telepathic abilities.

- Receiving -

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.

- Other -

Rais does not dream. Chemical hallucinogens and the like function normally.


Mannerisms

  • Quarters: Rais is a neat freak. Every corner of his cadet quarters is kept meticulously clean.
  • Favorite Room: Rais loves any room with a natural view into space. He prefers to see the stars with his naked eyes.
  • Mannerisms/Habits: Rais is uncomfortable around Betazoids due to his condition (and, by and large, they tend to be remarkably uncomfortable around him). Due to discrimination against males in Betazoid culture, Rais is a mild masculinist and believes that anything a woman can do a man can do as well.
  • Temperment: Rais is even handed and complete in his duty, although he can be fussy and pedantic at times.
  • Religion/Spiritual Devotion: Rais follows the complicated polytheist Betazoid philosophy, although not strongly. He finds the patriarchal nature of organized religion oppressive.
  • Fears/Phobias: Betazoids with little telepathic abilities are more prone to psychosis and violent behavior. Especially due to time spent as a Marine, Rais is greatly concerned about his own mental stability.


Career

Rais spent four years in the Starfleet Marine Corps, being posted to various ships and stations in the Ihassa region. He was part of the SFMC Logistics division. When Deep Space 17 was occupied by the Vaadwaur, he was captured and affected by the chemical brainwashing the Vaadwaur inflicted on prisoners.

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.

Relationships

Marine Days

Rais left behind all his friends when he transferred divisions, including his partner Jennifer Brockton- a Terran and fellow Marine he was engaged in a relationship with. What ultimately became of Jennifer has not been made public and Radi has not discussed it.

Platonic

  • Tali, Elya - Radi went to considerable trouble to find a couple hundred kilograms of Nitrium for the Laudean engineer, something he wouldn't do if he didn't find her extremely competent.
  • Frost, Liam - Radi and Frost tend to be assigned to the bridge together so have spent some time in each others company. Radi believes that Frost is a superb officer with a great future ahead of him... not that he'd ever tell him that.

Romantic

  • 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.

With the end of Radi's service, presumably their relationship has ended.
