Tanjar-Ongra was born into a herd (or upsol) of spice farmers, on Grazer. As is customary, every generation in the upsol is given their timename every 8 Terran years, so every child born in that period shares the same name - Tanjar, chosen by the elders, meaning 'heaven-traveller'. Ongra is his personal name, meaning 'light' or 'bright', on account of his white hair. Both portions together are his name in Federation society at large; calling him 'Ongra' is a privilege only extended to others in his upsol generation. | Tanjar-Ongra was born into a herd (or upsol) of spice farmers, on Grazer.

Tanjar-Ongra had a natural affinity for working with the machinery of the plantation. His aptitude was recognised in school, and he worked to join Starfleet Academy, to see the stars as his elders envisioned. | Tanjar-Ongra had a natural affinity for working with the machinery of the plantation.

Tanjar-Ongra is one of the few Grazerites in Starfleet, or that even travels off-world. The instinctual call of the herd of these pacifist, remote people have precluded too many individuals coming forward to participate in galactic events. In that sense, Tanjar-Ongra is not a typical Grazerite - a young man of huge curiosity about the universe and the things that happen in it. | Tanjar-Ongra is one of the few Grazerites in Starfleet, or that even travels off-world.

As such, he suffers from a Worf-like loneliness during his service, and in alien company tries his best to adapt to his new "herd" of the starship. As such, he is reclusive - not a very Grazerite trait, who are a communal people - in his wish not to offend humanoids who value privacy. Ironically, he is seen as too isolationist at home on Grazer and too communal and frank by most aliens, including humans. This also contributes to his overall tech-nerd feel, busying himself in engineering side-projects, verging on the mad professor at times. | As such, he suffers from a Worf-like loneliness during his service, and in alien company tries his best to adapt to his new "herd" of the starship.

As such, he is not a typical military type. He is messy in his quarters, chosen for his engineering skills rather than an all-round command knowledge. The latter will hopefully develop with time in the group. | As such, he is not a typical military type.
