Tobias graduated from University in 2378 with full honors and began to think about his future once again. He still wished to be a diplomat so when Ambassador Vadosia, a good friend of his father and a highly respected Federation ambassador, asked if Tobias would like to work as his aide for a year he readily agreed. | |||
It was during his time working for Vadosia that his ambitions changed. His father had always been vocal that 'real diplomacy' was done by the Federation's ambassadors yet when working in the field, Tobias observed that it is the explorers in Starfleet who were the ones making first contact and having to establish a dialogue. He began to think of becoming a Starfleet officer. | |||
Tobias was also beginning to consider his identity as a Trill, realizing that he knew less about his own culture than he did about many of the other races with whom he came into contact. The more he studied the history of his kind, the more he came to believe that he would not be fulfilling his potential unless he became one of the small proportion of Trills that were joined. He sent in his application to the Symbiosis Committee and was assigned a docent to establish his suitability as a host. | |||
Recommended by his docent, Tobias was joined to the Brel symbiont on 238001.11. After the joining however Tobias struggled with the four other lifetimes of experiences and memories that were now part of him. His relationships with his parents worsened and he no longer felt capable of being near them. Instead he was once again thinking of a career in Starfleet, believing that if he was to start pursuing his own ambitions again he might find peace with his new self. | |||
