Slishdakk was born on Gorn IV, just one more fruit of the labors of his terraforming parents, who immediately set out for a new assignment on the barren frontier world of Gorn IV, where they have been ever since. Slishdakk and his elder brothers were very close, and fought and played in the wild and sometimes violent colony, which was ruled by Lord Governor Sha'Zakk, a governor under the Colonial Autarch, who along with the Homeworld Autarch rules the Gorn Alliance. Slishdakk made his coming-of-age pilgrimage to S'sagarnon with his brothers (2364.07.01)for the bi-annual Autarch's festival, and Slishdakk saved his elder rother Ssravaakk from a giant Ssu'Voss (three-headed leapord), slew it, and won the title of Grand Superior for that year. For this act he was personally decorated by the S'sagarnon Autarch (Ssla'Gassk IV), and presented with a Ssaz'ta (traditional bladed ocatagonal shield) and Sskatra (collapsable boltcaster). | Slishdakk was born on Gorn IV, just one more fruit of the labors of his terraforming parents, who immediately set out for a new assignment on the barren frontier world of Gorn IV, where they have been ever since.

A parting of ways for the brothers came when Ssravaakk saved the life of a visiting member of the Governor's household from an accidental death (2366.04.23). As reward, Ssravaakk was made a retainer of the House of Sha'Zakk, and saw little of his blue-collar family in later years. Slishdakk's sister Ssavatu married (2368.08.04), and then there was a great stir in the family when his elder sister Ssilatra announced her intention to break her betrothal arrangement and continue studying her passion of geology at the Science Academy on Earth(2368.10.30). Ssilatra's willfulness drove a wedge between her and the family, but secretly Slishdakk admired her drive and her departure from what had become humdrum routine in the colony. The last straw for Slishdakk came when his younger brother Sslu'Shakk found his calling as a professional Ss'Avakk fighter (a kind of professional athelete), in 2370.01.03. | A parting of ways for the brothers came when Ssravaakk saved the life of a visiting member of the Governor's household from an accidental death (2366.04.23).

==Psychological Profile== | |||
===Personality=== | |||
Slishdakk is painfully aware that his appearance tends to prejudice aliens against him. He resents the notion that Gorn are brutes, and tends to go out of his way to educated others on the virtues of his culture and heritage. His estrangement from his brother and father add to this flaw, and he harbors a certain fear that the arguments of his family against his enlistment will prove true. He is fascinated by other cultures however, and while not in the least averse to conflict, he does not seek it out with every breath either, and tends to look down upon those who do. His sheer size occasionally puts him at odds with standard Starfleet issue equipment, and this frustrates him greatly. Possessing of a high stamina and pain threshold, he also tends to overestimate the physical boundries of non-Gorn beings. His heartfelt desire is to one day be in a position of command. Because of his Gorn upbringing, it has been noticed that he has a marked tendency to mistrust Klingons, Orions, and most practitioners of telepathy. | |||
===Outside interests=== | |||
Slishdakk is a practiced Ss'Avakk wrestler, the philosophy of which is to overpower one's opponent through sheer force and intimidation. It also stresses grappling and submission holds. Slishdakk is also an amateur sculptor, most interested in depicting the physical form in some manner of exertion. While in the Academy on Earth, he picked up a fondness for certain Terran masters, including DaVinci and Michaelangelo. He decorates his quarters with statues of Ss'Avakk fighters (as well as certain earth-pieces he collected), one modelled after a promotional poster of his famous brother. He also has a few oddly shaped and composed minerals (gifts from his sister), and displays his Ssaz'ta and Sskatra in a place of honor. On dress occassions he wears a traditional mantle of resplendent Ssu'Voss hide (the animal he himself slew). Recently he has begun to foster an interest in the American Old West of Earth, having been introduced to dramatic films about the period by members of the Kodiak crew. | |||
