| Personal History | Ktharra is the result of an unintended pregnancy between his Eeiaouan father and Caitian mother. His mother went for genetic therapy to allow the pregnancy to be successful however the doctor botched the job, leaving Kthaara sterile. and unable to have children. However, he was the only one of his litter to survive, as the doctor's botched job resulted in all his siblings being stillborn. His father, who was an engineer on a civilian freighter, died shortly after Kthaara was born in 2355 when the freighter was destroyed by an accident. due to the freighter captain's desire for cheap replacement parts. The Freighter was lost with all hands. Kthaara was raised alone by his mother, who managed to scrape by a meager living. However, when he was nine, his mother contracted a terminal illness and died a few days before his tenth birthday. Raised in an orphanage he enlisted Starfleet when he was eighteen in 2376, by then used to a regimented lifestyle, he had little trouble adapting. He first worked in Starfleet tactical then after a few years went to pilots. Gaining a warrant, then a few years later, went officer. Misfortune struck again for Kthaara when his wing, embarked on the USS Devore went to clear out a nest of pirates. The mission, however, went very badly, when the Pirates, warned by an informant on the Devore, ambushed his wing. He was one of three fighters to survive, and the Devore herself barely managed to limp back to space dock, her captain, first officer, second officer and over 200 others of her crew dead. The only consolation that exists was that the traitorous informant was one of the ones killed in the crossfire. Clearing out the pirates then fell to a much larger Starfleet taskforce which finished the job. Since then, Leadfoot as he became known, was reassigned to the USS Roanoke and here he served until her destruction in 2392, handling everything from the first and second pineapple incidents to meeting and wooing Moni Nasao. Nobody expected him to impregnate her and she did not expect him to try and make a relationship with her, something she respected and appreciated. Their relationship has been tested with the weird and the wacky before the ship and her crew ended up fighting it out with the Klingons during their short war with the Gorn in mid-2392. The battle ended with the destruction of the USS Roanoke and since then he has followed Moni Nasao to her next posting, which was the USS Shield of Brazil, a Guardian Class battleship and later, to Starbase Vanguard. Here he remains alongside his mate with their family. |
