* '''Prosthetics''': His left arm has been replaced following a traumatic amputation in a fighter crash. Feeling that fake scales looked 'cheap and tacky', the replacement is matte black and decidedly machine-like.

* '''Quarters''': Sparse but comfortable based in the Marine Barracks. A few framed photographs of various accomplishments hang off the wall along with his service record. Traditional swords (both his Gorn sword and Marine saber) are mounted above his bed. [[File:TatQ.jpg|300px|Right|thumb|Tatash's Quarters]]

* '''Hobbies and Interests''': Tatash loves to spar in the stations 'Bat'leth' 'training centre', which in reality is a low key gladiatorial arena for settling scores or proving ones strength. He also enjoys (to many peoples surprise) a good night out and dancing, even if he's pretty terrible at it. He also enjoys cooking and occasionally stars as a guest chef in a few eateries on board.

* '''Personality''': He's very professional on duty, typically Gorn when it comes to his work ethic although that doesn't stop his cutting sense of humor coming through. Off duty however he tends to surprise people with how laid back he can be, enjoying good company (and good booze if he can find some!). Surprisingly even tempered despite his fearsome appearance, it takes a lot to make him angry and he tends to make a good, devoted friend to those that earn his trust.

* '''Command Style''': He doesn't like to micromanage. He feels that junior officers reporting to him should be capable enough to make their own calls, with him to support and advise. Failures despite hard effort are met with a pat on the back and a promise to find the lessons learned. Failures due to incompetence are met with stern punishment.

* '''Physical Limitations''': Speed, or a lack of. He can’t keep up with a decent athlete, preferring instead to rely on his massive strength to find solutions. He also does not have a great deal of dexterity or technical knowledge beyond defensive and offensive systems and weaponry.

* '''Wealth''': Following a mining venture with his Brother, Tatash was bought out for a significant amount of Latinum that has left him quite well off, although on a Federation station he's having trouble finding anything to spend it on.

A veteran General in the Gorn Ground Forces, Tatash's father has always been an inspiration to drive him, pushing him through the challenges he faced in his younger years with a harsh, but fair hand. Talash always pushed Tatash to do his best and to hone his abilities. Sadly, in recent years Talash has suffered numerous bouts of poor health, however thanks to his two sons investment, a Romulan doctor was hired that has managed to bring Talash a much healthier and prosperous retirement.

Now he continues to serve with distinction on-board Starbase 118 itself as part of it's Marine force. Unique challenges ensure he remains challenged and lets him continue to improve his own abilities. While it's a lot different to a traditional posting on a Starship, he's rapidly starting to enjoy the Starbase more then his previous postings due to not only the people, but the whole society that's built up on board.

With a thousand marines now under his command and the responsibility of keeping an entire space station safe and secure for the thousands of people aboard, he's finally returned to his original calling of doing good.
With a thousand marines then under his command and the responsibility of keeping an entire space station safe and secure for the thousands of people aboard, he'd finally returned to his original calling of doing good.He'd managed to achieve everything he'd left behind on Cestus, regaining his former rank and forging a career that would make any officer proud. Now at last, the only thing left for him to do was to strive and improve himself even further to surpass anything he'd achieved before.Sadly, that career came to a juddering halt when his father, already gravely ill pass suddenly following complications from his treatment for a rare disease, one which was always going to be terminal but the lengthy preparations had not been met that would ensure an easy transition of estate. Recalled back to his home to settle numerous legal disputes (at least one of which ended in a trial by combat), he spent the next couple of years trying to rebalance his family and home life.All that time he yearned to return, to recover what he'd been forced to leave behind even if it meant coming back in from the ground floor.

'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/The Show Must Go On|''The Show Must Go On'']]''': Following what had been a miserable and trying time for the Gorn, there was a glimmer of hope as the inter-planetary legend Lady Shadonna announced her grand musical tour, starting with Starbase 118. As a quiet fanboy, Tatash was overjoyed until the shuttle carrying her and other senior officers went missing. Manning the Tactical console of the USS Albion, the Excelsior class ship was launched to find out what had happened. Rapidly, she was engaged by two Corsair-class Orion frigates, but through careful tactical manoeuvring and two well timed Quantum torpedo's the two ships were disabled and captured, their crews dragged on board for imprisonment. While handling the prisoners, the Albion once more engaged and successfully disabled the D'Kora class Marauder holding the famed popstar and his colleagues, leaving Tatash with the enjoyable task of preparing the criminals for their inevitable penal colony stays.

'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Dig Two Graves|''Dig Two Graves'']]''': After numerous Klingon border colonies were attacked, Tatash stayed with the rest of the crew aboard the USS Albion on what could well be a suicide mission, to defeat and destroy the captured D'Deridex-class Warbird taken by the traitorous Captain Arrhimen. Their companion ship the USS Avalon suffered a terrible fate leaving several escape pods in need of rescuing after she was brutally destroyed, with Tatash taking command of what was left of the Avalons fighter contingent in an effort to protect the few crew that had escaped alive. It was then that his makeshift squadron was ambushed by hidden Romulan drone units in a viscous dogfight. Just as it looked like the Albion had given them the upper hand with fire support, his fighter was hit, forcing him to make an extremely damaging crash landing. It cost him his left arm, shattered bones and many horrible shrapnel wounds leaving the downed Marine to start the long road to recovery and rehabilitation.
'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Rendezvous_at_Raskor|''Rendezvous at Raskor'']]''': After the horrible injury sustained, Tatash started the long road to recovery hoping to find a bit of relaxation on Raskor as the other senior officers worked at taking Kinney to task for his consistently botched orders. Still, the poor Gorn found himself once more having to step in to foil an assassination attempt, but it served as a reminder that despite his own hardships he still had a firm dedication to duty and due process. It gave him back his confidence, and reminded himself that he was still a capable officer despite his disability.
'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Terminal Velocity|''Terminal Velocity'']]''': Tatash worked on getting himself back in the flight seat, volunteering to accompany an Ambassador on the race as part of her racing crew. In the end, the ship they were piloting ended up being disqualified due to it's sheer amount of technical wizardry. That left Tatash at the mercy of one of the stations most vile, crusty old women known as Wannis as he forced himself to play along with her advances in order to siphon as much information as possible. As regrettable as the situation was, he found redemption in her arrest even if the sheer mental trauma was almost too much.
'''[[SB118Ops Mission Logs/Sal Taybrim/Edge of Glory|''Edge of Glory'']]''': There would be repercussions for the Gorn following the previous mission as one of the arrested parties logged a major protest towards the Federation. Sal Taybrim and himself were dragged through the mud back on Raskor, until that is Starbase 118 was attacked and Tatash led a daring rescue mission. After boarding 118 in secret, Tatash and his small team destroyed the central computer core to stop it falling into enemy hands before rallying a defence in the Hub. The invaders were repelled, through a mix of firepower and ingenuity, until all that remained was a demure and captured Chennel. As Tatash led her towards the brig, she made a move to escape and the Gorn swiftly ended her life. Many simply called it self defence, but deep down, Tatash thinks of it as an execution.
