Mikk Toral: Difference between revisions

Due to his own experiences in his childhood days, Mikk has a good sense of fairness. Mikk Toral is an idealist. He sticks close to the rules and regulations of Strafleet as he thinks they are the guarantee that everything is dealt with in the best possible way. His major task - as he sees it - is to provide for the safety of the ship and the crew and in a wider sense the Federation. So the old earth police motto "to serve and protect" really fits him best. Mikk doesn't like to have to use his weapon and tries to avoid it if he can. If he has to use it though, he wouldn't hesitate to do so either.

On the one hand, Mikk Toral has a fairly frank and cheerful character. Furthermore, you could describe him as rather selfless as he tries to help others when they need help. Therefore, he worked very well in teams. On the other hand, it takes some time until he really calls someone a friend and he has only a handful of really close ones. If he  got to know a person and likes her / him, he is a good sport. He really likes bantering with his friends. During his time at the Academy, he wasn't hostile to student life and spent lots of evenings out with his friends. He still likes to get to know new people and is quite a social person. However, there are those times when he needs to be alone. Then he is not in the mood of talking and just wants to sit in the dark looking out the starship's windows into the vast space outside.  

A negative character trait is that he can be quite grumpy early in the mornings and he needs at least two cups of strong coffee before he starts to feel and act okay again.

His daughter Alarra really means the world to him, so it is really hard for him not to be able to have her onboard the Gemini for now. However, as he is a single parent and there is no other close family member, it is his greatest personal concern to make this happen as soon as it is possible.
