| Personal History | Xalanth like all of his species was born on the hot desert world of his home as it systems twin suns scorched the hot sand. What marked him as special is he came from one of the decoy eggs placed outside of the incubator. His survival was a time of great happiness for his family as they roamed the planet's vast desert harvesting the great beast that roamed them. On his tenth birthday like all of his clutch he was inducted into the dragonan legion. A few years after he was initiated his people came under attack from the Yor a unknown race of robots. He barely survived the war unlike the thousands of others. Little more than a few days after the end of the war his people encountered the federation for the first time. It did not go well as the federation ships captain fired on the approaching dragonain ships after mistaking the dragonain greeting of approaching with partly powered up weapons as a sign of attack. The three organic dragonain ships overpowered the federation ship and it’s crew captive. Thankfully a war was avoided and the dragonians left to rebuild their damaged worlds. Xalanth unfortunately wasn’t so lucky having been killed by a federation torpedo hit on his ship and then reviving on the table. Believed to be cursed by his people he had to leave the legion. With very little prospects he had only one real choice and that was bounty hunting along the federation/dragonain border. On one such job he encountered another federation crew hunting the same criminal. The captain was impressed by the young reptile’s skills and offered to sponsor him for Starfleet. He applied to join starfleet but found it hard to work with what he considered the very lacks rules of the academy given how he’d been brought up. He hated life at the academy finding the lifestyle far different from his own with the lack of military discipline clashing with his own beliefs. Worse was the constant attention from the councillors who thought they wanted to help just made his nightmares worse. Just as it looked like he would be kicked due to low grades and a fight he has with other cadets he encountered a half vulcan who changed his life. During a terrorist incident in which the san francisco police asked for backup from the academy. Xalanth was one cadet who volunteered wanting any excuse to get out of the academy and preferably a chance to shoot something. Whilst out on patrol he got paired with a group of medical students one of whom happened to be a certain hybrid called T’para. Despite the situation the two found each other's company to be quite nice and after the event the two started seeing each other. Xalanth couldn't help, but fall in love with the hybrid though he couldn't find the courage to tell her. Only with the help of the prospect of him dying again gave him said courage. After being seriously hurt in an accident with another cadet during zero g training he finally worked up the courage to tell her how he felt. Much to his surprise she admitted sharing the same feelings. Vowing to put his life back on track he did so much to the surprise of the academy staff. Though he and T’para tried to keep their feeling under control they ended up having sex before they were medically cleared. Though they suffered no side effects they both had a blotch on there records. Xalanth managed to pass from the academy and was posted to the USS Strangelove. There he and T'para found that they would be parents. They married shortly after and became parents to Yazar the first dragonian hybrid. Shortly after this there ship accidently uncovered a pair of ancient collectives both of which activated. Whilst defending the ship Xalanth was killed and resurrected by the dark collective. Xalanth using his love for his daughter and his mate was able to throw of it’s control over him. He played a vital part in taking back the ship and ending the two collectives though his second death has mellowed the dragonian and there force DNA alteration has caused him no end of trouble. Over the many years, his career in the fleet keep't going and his wife announced they were expecting another child. Sadly the universe decided to throw a spanner in the works. A group of former federation scientists abducted his unborn child and conducting many vile experiments. By the time they found her the girl had been forcefully aged and had grafted borg tech to her. With plenty of love from her family the girl has come to terms with what has happened to her and has began living a normal happy life. The lizard is now ready for his next assignment. |
