Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Daeren has had a varied and extensive history of service both as a Starfleet officer and as a civilian working on his homeworld’s behalf. During his Starfleet career he specialized in languages and in interstellar affairs, which gave him exposure to a wide variety of cultures and taught him how to deal with many different sorts of diplomatic issues, from foreign aid, to trade negotiations, economic and environmental concerns. Daeren has learned to speak four languages himself, and becoming host to the Iril symbiont has gained him fluency in seven others. Daeren can competently speak the following: Trill, Vulcan, Klingon, Federation Standard, Ferengi, Andorian, Bajoran, Cardassian, Denobulan, Dakmiri, and Pelatiran. The latter two of these are languages he learned during First Contacts while in Starfleet. Daeren was chosen from among several other candidates to be joined with the Iril symbiont, a testimony not to his academic accomplishments but to his willingness to adapt to change and to deal effectively with hardship and with another’s suffering. The Iril symbiont needed, not a caregiver, but someone who could help bring it out of trauma. While Iril has not recovered as well as was hoped, its mental health has improved considerably over the years, and the two have melded successfully into one cohesive being. Daeren has for the most part adhered to his culture’s custom of reduced romantic attachments among joined Trill. He has had two lovers, a Trill male and a Trill female, but he has not fathered any children. |

| Strengths & Weaknesses | Strengths * An accomplished linguist who fluently speaks more than ten languages. * A former Starfleet commanding officer, well versed in its practices. * The varied experiences of being a joined Trill. (Working on this history.) Weaknesses * His current host took a medical discharge from Starfleet after exposure to radiation during his final mission. * The Iril symbiont cannot bear for its host to be unconscious for longer than about four hours per night, so Daeren has a sleep disorder. * Some aspects of his mission on Starbase 109 are clandestine. |
|
| Ambitions | To ensure the smooth functioning and continuance of the UFP as a whole and of Trill in particular. | |
| Hobbies & Interests | Daeren learns languages for fun. It's one reason why he was so pleased to be assigned to Starbase 109--a polyglot's paradise if there ever was one. TBD |
| Personal History | Commanded the USS Nightraven for three years and the USS Vigilance for four years but decided to retire from Starfleet after radiation exposure during a mission while on the Vigilance left him debilitated, requiring an extended period of treatment, rest, and rehabilitation in a Starfleet hospital and on Trill. While on his homeworld he was invited to attend a diplomatic reception in Leran Manev and was asked that evening if he had ever considered the foreign service. Daeren hadn't, but it seemed to him that, in some ways, serving in the diplomatic corps was similar to functioning as a starship captain. His two previous hosts had not done diplomatic work before, so Daeren decided to apply. He went up through the ranks, feeling that he had best learn the profession from the basics to fill in the gaps in his knowledge. Previous hosts: * Jorron Iril - Organizer of security for high-profile politicians, business people, and celebrities. |
