Mek'Tul: Difference between revisions

Mek'Tul is the youngest son of Kortok and is a member of house Tenalor. While Tenalor is not one of the great Houses, there is much honour within the House and respect from outsiders.  

At a young age Mek'Tul showed promise in the ways of the warrior and entered the Klingon training academy on Ogat at the age of ten in preparation for his age of accession which happened at thirteen. Despite his devotion to his family and house, Mek'Tul fell out of favour with his father as a young warrior due to his hedonistic appetite and 'dishonourable' amorous endeavours. While his older brother became an officer in the KDF, Mek'Tul was instructed to learn the ways healers. While upset at the instruction Mek'Tul followed the orders of his father and studied for three years at the Antaak Institute, part of the Klingon Medical Authority, on Ganalda IV. While at the institute Mek'Tul was instructed by not only Klingon healers but healers from the Federation who were there as part of an exchange program. Upon exiting the institute Mek'Tul partitioned his father for entrance into the KDF. This request was gained refused as his father had heard of Mek'Tul's private activities and branded them as unbecoming of a Klingon Warrior and a member of house Tenalor.

Frustrated and unable to find a role for himself within the Empire, MeK'Tul partitioned his father to allow him to join the Federation Marines. While initially strongly opposed to the idea, his father eventually agreed to the request after arguing that there was honor to be had in the SF Marines as the federation was an ally to the Empire. There is whispered speculation within House Tenalor that Kortok was is pleased to have his disappointment of a son far from him, however, the one warrior who drunkenly voiced this idea to Kortok was disembowelled.
