Brek: Difference between revisions

He was born on Ferenginar to a family that has acquired its wealth selling Ferengi memorabilia to tourists and expats (reputed to be attracted to anything that glitters like gold).

He was educated at the Korpa boarding school for young entrepreneurs, where he stayed between age 3 to 18. Following this long spell away from his native village, he felt estranged from his relatives and decided to leave Ferenginar altogether. After a few years, where he erred here and there, working for various mining operators, he developed a passion for geology and, aged 24, entered Starfleet Academy.

Prior to joining Starfleet Academy, he spent some time on Risa, where he lost an inordinate amount of money in their casinos.

Unfortunately, Brek wasn't really up to his father's standards and it is said among the family circle, that out of spite, he abandoned Ferenginar for StarFleet.

He now receives little news from his parents, and expects that Kreb, his younger brother, will one day inherit the family's financial empire. He used to feel bitter because of this, but now he thoroughly enjoys the freedom and sense of discovery that StarFleet has given him.

He is not entirely free of his family though: His 90 year old grandmother, Ara, lives on Starbase 118 and has a knack for disrupting his life.
