Home & Upbringing

• Starbase; Starfleet
• “My Home is Among the Stars; Honor is the Last to Go”

Shath Th'Ovinihr is an Andorian born from a heritage of Starfleet personnel. His parents would tell him often that members of the Ovinihr clan served as some of the first Andorians in Starfleet at the founding of the Federation, and that his was a heritage of honourable service and pride

Shath grew up on DS-4 Station, where his family had been stationed to serve in Ops and Engineering, and he spent much of his time out of school exploring and getting to know the ins and outs of the Starbase. This curiosity extended out beyond his home station and he readily accepted his parents' expectations that he would go on into Starfleet himself when he came of age, a path that would allow him to go further into the stars that he had grown to admire.

Starfleet Academy

• Major: Command, Minors: Science
• “Never Ask Others to do What You Wouldn't.”

Enrolling in the Academy, Shath gravitated towards the command track, seeing this as his way of getting a ship of his own to explore with, as well as it being a good fit for his quiet brand of charisma. Minoring in sciences as well, especially Astronavigation kept him, he thought, well-rounded if a little sleep-deprived.

During a field exercise, where Shath was placed in command of a small team of cadets as a way of training for high-stress situations, Shath suffered a minor breakdown from the demands of issuing commands to the others that could wind up sending them into harm's way, harm that he felt he should go into himself first

Career Events

• Mentor/ Dealing with a plague
• “Hard Decisions Don’t mean Hard People”

Feeling disillusioned by what he saw as a lack of command material, Shath was approached by a Benzite Doctor, Parretha. The doctor had mentioned being impressed with Shath's work in the field exercise and had requested that the Cadet be assigned to her team for a work study period, where he would act as a pilot for the doctor in some of the more remote Federation colonies.

Shath eventually opened up to the Doctor as they were going about the program and confessed his lack of confidence and 'softness' that would have him wash out of the Command track. Parretha allowed that sometimes being in command meant that there would have to be hard decisions to be made, but that didn't mean that the person giving the commands had to be hard themselves. Indeed, compassion and empathy would be just as useful to the young officer as a willingness to make sacrifices in the name of difficult decisions. It was while Shath helped the doctor during a massive outbreak of Hyraxian Fever on the colony of Trico IV that he was ableto see what the doctor meant first hand, and the memories of Dr. Parretha's actions on that world have stayed with him. Heading back to the Academy after his time with Parretha finished, Shath took to his studies with a renewed vigor.

Description

Appearance:

Personality:

Shath is still in the early testing stages, and the nerves of a new officer can still be seen as he works to put on the quiet calm of a commander. A big part of the role he sees for himself is to not only coordinate actions, but to insert himself where he feels he could be of use for the team. As such, he can sometimes come off as overly eager.

Relationships

Dr. Parratha (NPC)

Benzite Starfleet Doctor: Dr. Parratha carries herself with an energy approaching the frantic as she goes about her rounds. Specializing in emergency medicine and epidemiology, Parratha rarely gives off the impression that she has any time for her patients as she is rushing to the next three crises. When she approached Shath to take him under her wing, the expectation was clear that he would be keeping up with the doctor, an expectation that the cadet fell dangerously behind in the initial weeks as Shath underestimated the old doctor’s energy. While the doctor appears to be inattentive to most beyond the immediate medical problems, her mind is quick to catch the little details of a patient’s personal life and needs. Often, she would surprise Shath by relating some piece of information to him after the fact or making an inquiry to the patient if it were a follow up visit.
