* '''Taste in Clothing (when off duty)''': Prefers a black t-shirt and vest.

* '''Quarters''':  Didrik's quarters are located in the saucer (primary) section of the ship, just aft of the main cargo bays on Deck 13.  The single-accommodation apartment is approximately 45m² in area.  Its open layout is single-room style and, while significantly better outfitted than enlisted or Ensigns' quarters, the residential apartments are not as spacious or well-appointed as quarters assigned to more senior officers.  A combined living and working area occupies the majority of the space, with a sofa, a table and chairs, storage shelves, a food replicator, and a workstation equipped with an LCARS computer terminal.  A vidscreen is mounted into the aft bulkhead for video communications and entertainment viewing.  Against the forward bulkhead is a sleeping alcove with a single berth, and a private bathroom with a toilet, sink and sonic shower.  The windows along the starboard side provide a spectacular view of space.  Didrik is not a decorator by any definition, and his quarters are often spartan and utilitarian.  While he doesn't have much in the way of memento, Didrik does have mounted on the walls in his quarters The Daystrom Award in Biosciences and the J. Bruce Bioengineering Award, given to him by [[Kells, Aron|Aron Kells]].

* '''Physical Limitations''': Suffers from congenital analgesia and a slight visual impairment.  Often wears corrective lenses.

Didrik dislikes crowds and raised voices, and avoids them whenever possible.  He is an outdoorsman and an explorer, an able hiker and mountaineer.  Didrik is fond of wordplay and sarcasm, and will take whatever opportunities he can to make a good-natured quip.  While fluent in Federation Standard English, he often configures his combadge to transmit simultaneous translation into Norwegian, mostly because he finds it amusing how the computer so frequently gets it wrong.

Physically, Didrik is bulkier than the average human.  He is self-conscious about his forehead, which he thinks is too large.  Born with a healthy Norwegian appetite, he has never met a food replicator that he didn't like, and he must make himself exercise regularly to avoid putting on too much weight.
