Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Rhyan is a Vulcan/Romulan hybrid, although raised on Earth by his Vulcan mother. For the majority of his life Rhyan knew nothing about his paternity, other than the knowledge that his father was Romulan. As a consequence of his mixed heritage and upbringing on Earth, Rhyan has struggled with control over his emotions and isn't considered a typical Vulcan. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Rhyan is fiercely loyal to his commanding officer, crew mates and friends. He is an excellent science officer, and beginning to show the signs of being an adept commanding officer. Rhyan's main weakness lies with his inability to control his emotions, acting more like a human than a Vulcan. On occasion his temper can lead to him lashing out at those around him. | |
| Ambitions | Although Rhyan was not initially interested in the command track, events have thrust him into the role of first officer of the USS Redemption. He aims to overcome his doubts to become a valued first officer, and perhaps - someday - a commanding officer of his own. Other aims include continuing his scientific research, and developing his skills as a much-sought-after science officer. In the future he hopes to cure the effects of the Ee virus which converts humanoid species into Ee offspring. | |
| Hobbies & Interests | Rhyan is not a fan of the holodeck. Instead he prefers to clear his mind in the fitness suite on board the Redemption. |
History
| Personal History | 2360: Rhyan’s mother, T’Kesh (Lieutenant), begins a three-year intelligence mission into the heart of the Romulan Empire. Early into the mission she is afflicted with a Romulan virus and prematurely enters into the Ponn Farr. She mates with a Romulan senator, Sahrin, to relieve the blood fever. Upon discovery of her immanent pregnancy T’Kesh aborts her mission and returns to Federation territory. 2361: Rhyan is born on Vulcan. T’Kesh takes a leave of absence from Starfleet Intelligence. 2363: T’Kesh returns to Starfleet duty. She accepts a desk job in Starfleet Intelligence Central Command on Earth. Rhyan joins her here. 2371: Rhyan shows inadequate progress in traditional Vulcan teachings on logic and emotional control, partly caused by his upbringing amongst humans. T’Kesh is granted a transfer to Vulcan so that she can introduce Rhyan to the traditional Vulcan upbringing. 2375: T’Kesh is promoted to Lieutenant Commander and transferred off-world to help in the efforts against the Dominion. Rhyan remains under the care and tutelage of a Vulcan priest. Rhyan begins to show difficulties in identifying with his Vulcan heritage. This problem worsens when he learns of his half-Romulan ancestry. 2377: Rhyan joins the Vulcan Science Academy (VSA). He majors in theoretical particle physics, with minors in astrophysics and molecular biochemistry. 2379: Rhyan graduates from the Vulcan Science Academy. He is then subsequently granted acceptance into Starfleet. 2379: Rhyan begins training in Starfleet Academy. He is trained within the ‘sciences’ division. He is accepted for additional command training. 2382: Rhyan is assigned to the USS Sarajevo for his as a sciences intern. 2383: Rhyan graduates from Starfleet Academy as a science officer with command training. 2389: Lieutenant Rhyan takes command of the USS Everest (attaché vessel to Starbase 54) during a battle with the Romulans in which the commanding officer was killed. He is promoted to Second Officer of Starbase 54 following his successful return. 2390: Lieutenant Rhyan takes a leave of absence from Starfleet and returns to Earth following the death of his colleague, and lover, on Starbase 54. Rhyan is quickly given a field promotion to Lieutenant Commander and temporarily reassigned to the USS Redemption as its Chief Science Officer and Acting Executive Officer after the assassination of President G'ath. During this time Rhyan finds out the true indemnity of his father, Praetor Sahrin, and meets his half-sister Reanna for the first time. He also falls in love with Ensign Sarah Kaminski, who eventually succumbs to an Ee virus that transforms her into an Ee-human hybrid. Rhyan eventually assumes command of the USS Redemption following the presumed death of its commanding officer, Captain Azura Ashcart. During his time in command the rogue Starfleet Sixth Fleet attacks the USS Redemption and has to be abandoned. The ship is presumed lost. 2391: Rhyan is on the run from Starfleet as rogue elements within the organisation wish to arrest and interrogate him on his knowledge of the mysterious Ee race. Rhyan enlists the help of his half-sister, Reanna, and members of the Ee research institute to track down Sarah Kaminski and relocate the missing USS Redemption. Upon the return of the USS Redemption into Starfleet hands, Rhyan is court marshalled for his actions around Thorlarus III. Rhyan is exonerated under the condition that he works alongside the Ee Research Institute while the Redemption is repaired and refitted. Late in 2391 Rhyan resumes his position on board the Redemption and is unexpected promoted by Captain Ashcart. |
