Jora Kalis was born on [[Bajor]], | Jora Kalis was born on [[Bajor]], just a few years after the [[Cardassian]] withdrawal from the system. His mother, Rhandra Corae, a [[Betazoid]], moved to Bajor as a relief worker in the final years of the [[ma:Occupation of Bajor|occupation]], ending up becoming a hospital administrator in the post-occupation era. His father, Jora Tohr, was quite spiritual and was associated with a variety of religious orders on Bajor, moving frequently between sects during the occupation and, finally working his way up to being an aide of one of the more prominent [[ma:Vedek|Vedeks]] in the [[ma:Vedek Assembly|Assembly]]. Although Tohr isn't directly linked to the [[ma:Bajoran Resistance|resistance]], his parents claim to have met in the aftermath of the [[ma:Kendra Valley Massacre|Kendra Valley Massacre]] in the Kendra Province of Bajor. | ||
Jora was raised in the Bajoran faith and follows the [[ma:Prophets|Prophets]] but his Betazoid heritage was not neglected. His childhood was spend mostly on Bajor but his adolescent schooling was split between the two worlds, mostly spending time with relatives on [[Betazed]] to develop his empathic and telepathic abilities. | |||
Jora became interested in medicine and science and enrolled in a medical school on Betazed. It was there he learned of opportunities in Starfleet, applying to Starfleet Academy. During his time at the academy, he applied to and was accepted into a Federation-sponsored medical mission/externship on a heavily populated [[Ferengi]] commerce world where he continued to practice his comparative xenobiology medical skills. This delayed his graduation by a year but greatly enhanced his exposure to other races and cultures. If not for medicine, he's convinced he'd be an anthropologist. | Jora became interested in medicine and science and enrolled in a medical school on Betazed.
