Renos began nir career in Starfleet in 2379 assigned to Starbase 118 after graduating as a counselor with a specialisation in gender studies. It has long been a source of frustration that while ne can study the gender expression and history of many hundreds of Federation worlds, ne cannot study it in nir own species. In three years Renos worked hard and impressed nor bosses, rising to the respectable rank of Lieutenant.

Ne wasn't completely satisfied though and decided to upskill and train as a doctor having felt that there was still so much ne could do to help those who needed it most. Because ne'd already taken all the core courses at Starfleet Academy and had knowledge that was complimentary to nir new path, ne only needed to attend Starfleet medical and this cut the training time in half compared to what it'd be for someone going through the Academy for the first time.

By 2387 Renos had qualified as a doctor and was serving Starbase 118 in this new capacity and did so well that after about 6 months, ne had been promoted to assistant department head. The J'naii served in this role for three years before being reassigned to a space ship, the Odyssey class USS Apollo-A.

Unfortunately nir time there was limited and in 2392 ne was given nir biggest career boost to date. In response to the crisis at Prometheus Station, the USS Darwin-A was recommissioned in the Zeta Gelis Region under the command of newly promoted Commander Renos. While Starfleet had been looking to establish a stronger presence in the area — a region ripe with potential for scientific discovery and exploration - for some time, a distress call from a Starfleet survey vessel being pulled into an unidentified phenomenon prompted the emergency response. With fears that the phenomenon was the latest complication of the Prometheus Incident and the role of the mysterious Zalkonians still unknown, Starfleet tasked Commander Renos with assembling a team of officers from across the fleet to deal with it. Renos was promoted to Captain on 239206.03 after the conclusion of nir second mission in command. After a year in command of the Darwin Renos was promoted to Fleet Captain on 239302.27


Personal Details

  • Height: 1.8m (5'10)
  • Hair: Naturally black but sometimes died other colours.
  • Eyes: Blue
  • Build: Slim
  • Skintone: Pale, olive
  • Distinguishing features: The typical facial ridges of the J'naii on the bridge of the nose, forehead and in place of eyebrows.
  • Handedness: Right

Gender and preferred pronouns

The J'naii are a genderless, androgynous species. In their own tongue a neuter pronoun is used in lieu of "he" and "she," but there is no effective translation to English, which is why the preferred pronouns of Renos and many others is ne/nem/nir/nirs/nemself. Renos is considered a deviant because ne is genderfluid, on some days/in some situations ne identifies as male and at other times ne identifies as female. Nirs wardrobe consists of a mixture of feminine and masculine clothing and ne has two sets of duty uniforms so that ne can dress according to how ne is feeling on any particular day. When ne presents as female ne is happy being addressed with female pronouns, on days ne presents as male ne prefers masculine pronouns. This can be a lot to keep up with so if in doubt it is always preferable to use gender neutral pronouns to avoid offense as ne will be unhappy if addressed incorrectly.

Personality and Preferences

Fears:

  • Renos is afraid of being attacked by Klingon pain sticks after being tortured by one in 2393, during mission Breaching the Adversary. Ne came close to losing nir life and sustained injuries, including AF (atrial fibrillation), which threatened to end nir career. While recovering and receiving treatment Renos was left to wonder what ne would do without Starfleet and considered taking up full time work with the Deviant Underground.

Interests

Commander Renos is a big fan of martial arts and is trained in several disciplines from across a number of cultures including:

  • Kaigut, a J'naii style favouring leg work, kicks and knock backs
  • Karate, a Terran martial art. It is predominantly a striking art using punching, kicking, knee strikes, elbow strikes and open hand techniques such as knife-hands, spear-hands, and palm-heel strikes.
  • Mok'bara, a Klingon martial art. The technique is similar to meditation, as the forms are said to clear the mind. It is the basis of Klingon hand-to-hand combat techniques, and may be practiced alone, or in groups. It involves weapons such as the bat'leth, mek'leth, d'k tahg, and lahj.
  • Suus Mahna, an ancient Vulcan martial art form, which is a purely defensive practice that takes years to master.


Relationships

Family

Renos has not spoken to nir family for approximately 18 years. Ne is an outcast and runaway, rejected by nir family for being different to what is considered socially acceptable and holding different beliefs. Ne has now seen more years of nir life without the love and support of family around than with it. Renos is considered a criminal and because of that ne cannot ever return to J'naii, even if ne wanted to. Ne has had to rely on the goodwill and help of complete strangers to escape his home world and as a result always tries to help and treat others with the same kindness. Ne now puts nirs trust and faith in the friends ne has made on Earth and beyond.

Friends and Acquaintances

TraenorEns.png
Acquaintance
Maxwell Traenor
  • Traenor
    • Science Officer - USS Darwin-A
Doctor Renos first met the scientist on the USS Apollo-A when he came into sickbay for his physical evaluation shortly after joining the crew. Ne noted some problems with the knee and discussed a way forward that was sensitive to the tall human's needs and a follow up appointment was made for a less formal setting so that they could discuss a matter Maxwell wanted advice about. They also got to spend a little time together while part of a team doing a scavenger hunt. Doctor Renos has enjoyed his company so far, learned that he likes Saurian Brandy and looks forward to getting to know him a bit better.

The pair never got the chance to catch up again before Renos was pulled away to re-launch the Darwin, however ne readily used nir newfound rights and privilidges useful when gathering the elite crew of officers needed to tackle an emergent problem in the Ztea Gelis region, so they were soon reunited. The newly promoted Commander and Commanding Officer hopes that the rank and position won't interfere with what had been a nicely blossoming friendship.

AvarisTorrin.png
Ally
Avaris Torrin
  • Torrin
    • Civilian - USS Darwin-A
Avaris Torrin approached Renos when ne was in the Mess Hall of the USS Apollo-A, feeling pretty down one day after receiving a distressing message. He immediately identified the fact ne is a deviant and got nem talking in a way that rarely happens. Doctor Renos explained what the problem was in a big leap of faith and the Trill responded by offering to help nir friend in need. At first eh J'naii was reluctant to accept but Avaris took some pretty bold steps to prove he could be trusted building a bridge that would allow Renos to let him in. Ne hopes that Avaris will prove to be not just a useful ally, but trusted friend.

When Renos was promoted and given Command of the USS Darwin, ne faced going it alone very far from all nir contacts under an increased workload. If nir work with the J'naii underground railway was to continue ne needed help and readily used nir powers to transfer Artem Dragumov to nir crew, knowing it would bring Avaris, the person ne needed most. He was furious about the move at first and it caused a heated rown between them, which resolved in him agreeing to continue support. He was soon in need of support himself when he realised the USS Dunbar was in the region and feared that there might be crew aboar that ship who would recognise him years after a very unfortunate kidnapping incident. The revelation put the Captain in a very awkward spot, torn between a friend and supporter and Starfleet duty.


Background

Renos is deliberately vague and has infrequently confided in others about nir past, only doing so with those ne has got to know over a long period of time, or more unusually those ne strikes a connection with quickly. That said there are some things ne will talk more freely about such as the fact ne left nir home world in 2373, a turbulent year that ne will never forget. Renos had been forced to see asylum on Earth and was fortunate to have been granted it. It had taken a number of individuals to get nem off of J'naii and not all of them were affiliated with the Federation. It took a number of months to settle in on Earth and even more for the culture shock to wear off.


As ne settled in more he began to think about the future - ne decided ne wanted to spend it helping others. Back on J'naii ne had just started college and had been studying to be a psychologist so ne looked at similar careers before deciding to choose a career in counselling. Renos applied to several courses but when ne saw some recruitment material from Starfleet ne knew right away and passionately that this was the path for nem. It took a bit of doing to secure the necessary endorsements but nir charming disposition and passion for it helped to counter any initial shortfall in education or other doubts. When given the chance to take pre-entry tests ne knew ne had to give it everything as there would be no seconds chances. Fortunately it paid off and in 2375 nir training began.


Quarters

Renos generally prefers to replicate clothes as needed, choosing from a selection of the latest fashions rather than store and reuse the same items over and over again. That said there are a few items ne does keep, which are non-replicated, handcrafted items with sentimental value. Some were more feminine, like the white robe with golden oriental pattern gifted to nem some years ago by a friend who had helped nem get settled on Earth. Some were more masculine, like the sleeveless black leather jacket nem liked to pair with a plain white t-shirt and gradiated dark sunglasses.


Daruma Doll

Ne likes to add a few personal touches to nir living space and has pictures of friends made while serving aboard Starbase 118. Ne hopes the pictures will not only remind nem of happier times but serve as a visual reminder to place subspace calls to these people and keep in touch with them. Renos is a visually oriented person and has a few significant items ne likes to keep around nem, such as a yellow Daruma Doll. Ne first learned of Daruma Dolls and the traditions surrounding them from another Academy Cadet who came from a traditional family in Japan. The doll is designed to get back up when it falls, embodying the essence of the famous Japanese proverb – fall down seven times and stand up eight. The Daruma is commonly regarded in Japanese society as both a good luck charm and a constant reminder of one’s goals.

Ne thought it was an interesting idea and after completing nir first one has never looked back.


Nir current doll is not yellow by accident. Yellow symbolizes security and protection and is appropriate to the goal ne has selected to focus on. The doll only one eye has been painted and is kept in a prominent place so it is seen often and serves to remind nem of nir goal. Renos has been in regular if infrequent contact with an individual back home. Ne can relate to the problems facing nem and has been giving as much help and support as ne is able to. Ne hopes to be able to get this individual off-world within the next twelve months and cannot imagine not achieving the goal. Ne intends to paint in the second eye once this is achieved. The doll could then be burned in a special ceremony at which point ne would pick up a new one and set a new goal.

USS Apollo-A

Lt Cmdr. Renos, CMO, USS Apollo-A

When Doctor Renos was reassigned to the USS Apollo-A as a chief medical officer the Odyssey class ship was between missions. This represented a step up for the J'naii from the position of assistant chief that ne'd held for 4 years. Some people might have expressed disappointment at not having advanced sooner and Renos has never been unambitious, however the position and its responsibilities had always suited nem just right and allowed nem to continue with other, more personal projects that held equal value to nem. As exciting as it was to move to a ship based assignment after working on Starbase 118 for the entirety of nir 13 years in Starfleet as a comissioned officer, it also led to the worry that continuing nir personal projects would prove to be more difficult.


The J'naii didn't have much time to worry about it as ne was very quickly put to work doing physical exams for the crew, many of whom were new and hadn't had the chance to get such things squared away yet. While the ship was on shore leave at Starbase 118, Renos was lucky to be included in a team building exercise where ne began to make friends with Collim Kieran, Dial and Maxwell Traenor who ne had seen previously in sickbay. The scientist had made a good impression on nem and so the J'naii had been particularly looking forward to working with nem. During the team building exercise small groups of officers competed in a scavenger hunt, taksed with working together to solve clues to get to the next activity. Their first task had been a drinks tasting session where they'd had to choose the 'best' from a selection of 5 drinks, which all had a claim to the title for one reason or another. After much deliberation the Saurian Brandy in particular had become a firm favourite and they'd selected it as the 'best drink' winning a bottle of it and their next clue in the process.

Later Doctor Renos and nir department was faced with one of its biggest mysteries - Fleet Captain Kali Nicholotti was picked up by the Apollo-A having seemingly come back from the dead. While she could not remember any of the people she had been attached to, or life experiences she still retained all of her former skills, though to her it felt like something read out of a textbook. The memory loss was extensive as it was selective. Subtle differences had been detected between the Kali Starfleet medical knew and the one they had before them. The change in eye colour from an off gret tone to bright cerullian blue. The CMO's first taks had been to do an in-depth physical exam including bloodwork, detailed scanning, an optical examination to look for hints of implants or eye conditions to explain the changes to the eye, and a physical fitness test to determine whether Kali was fit for duty or not. Following that she was sent for a psych eval with the counseling staff. While Kali was found to be fit for duty, there is still a lot of work to be done to help Kali get her memories back. Since Renos and Kali were both reassigned to different vessels, it will be someone else's job to pick up the threads of that investigation.


USS Darwin-A

The Lost Souls

Cmdr Renos, CO, USS Darwin-A

In response to the crisis at Prometheus Station, the USS Darwin-A was recommissioned in the Zeta Gelis region and Commander Renos was to be the Captain. While Starfleet had been looking to establish a stronger presence in the area—a region ripe with potential for scientific discovery and exploration—for some time, a distress call from a Starfleet survey vessel being pulled into an unidentified phenomenon has prompted the emergency response. With fears that the phenomenon is the latest complication of the Prometheus Incident and the role of the mysterious Zalkonians still unknown, Starfleet has tasked Commander Renos, who has experience with the mysterious, xenophobic species, to assemble a team of officers from across the fleet. Renos had passed nir bridge officer exam but felt under prepared due to a lack of bridge experience.

Arriving on the scene ne quickly got a status report from the Dunbar and sent over a team to support the exhausted freighter crew. On the bridge they kept a wary eye out for signs of Zalokonians or trouble in the area while trying to study and get to grips with the volatile anomaly. There were tense moments where they had to declare a communications blackout and their shuttle was blown out the back of the freighter when it suffered a hull breach! The most difficult thing in seeing that unfold was not knowing how the away team where doing and whether anyone had been injured or killed.

Things were further complicated when it turned out one of their civilians, Avaris Torrin had previously had a run in with the Dunbar after kidnapping one of their officers. It put nem in a very awkward position, which ne handle as tactfully and carefully as possible. There were problems with the sensors and at times, it felt as if the anomaly might well win. Ne felt out of nir comfort zone through much of the mission and tried hard to hide that from the crew and Commander Kael Thomas, their chief engineer, who seemed so in his element and confident. Renos took things in nir stride and remained strong even when officers were disappearing before nir very eyes!

SIM Archive

Dr Renos receives a message from Teren, a J'naii diplomat stationed aboard Starbase 118. On the face of things it is a simple conversation between friends but ne has big expectations of the hidden contents and goes to some trouble to keep the message private and off the grid. The doctor is in for a surprise as the message is not as expected.
Dr Renos views the video message and is deeply troubled and emotionally moved by it because of the way it resonates with nir own experiences, as a result ne feels compelled to act.
