Bio:
My hatching was one of 27 eggs in the Vault of Tomorrow, Janus VI. I am currently 39.5 Earth years old.
For most of my life, I have worked in mining and Ore Processing on Janus VI. A few years ago the Ferengi established a company on Janus VI, and selling minerals became less profitable for the small prospector like myself.
I decided to leave Janus VI, and serve the Federation as a member of Starfleet. Naraht's tales of serving on the Enterprise, under Captain James T. Kirk influenced my decision.
I applied to the Academy and was accepted.
The Breen attack on Starfleet Command occurred during my Orientation week at the Academy. I was part of the team that dug through the rubble of Starfleet Headquarters.
At the Academy I was flunked out of small arms training by a Marine instructor,
dropping my grade point average drastically. The instructor recommended that
N'tran never be issued a hand phaser: "Firearms require hand-eye co-ordination.
This Cadet has neither hands nor eyes."
I am a member of the Association for Chronological Investigation; a group of
scientists interested in Chronological, and Temporal phenomena.
I encountered this organization while tunneling under San Francisco, working to relieve stresses that could cause major Earthquakes. I tunneled to close to the archeological dig where Data's head had been discovered. ACI was handling the security for this dig, and were waiting for me when I surfaced. ACI thought a member with a life span of 5000 years might be useful.
I was assigned to Deep Space Twelve, as a geologist, for my sophomore field study.
