Talvek Kehron

Lt. JG Talvek Kehron is a Diplomatic Officer on the USS Odyssey.
== Background ==
Talvek was born after the cold hibernation month high in the northern mountains of Duhltehlrey. He grew up in a tribe of 200 members and was raised by his mother and father. They taught him how to understand auras, memory view, and follow the old religion of reading light spirits that danced through the sky (aurora borealis). 
Talvek’s father Renvek was the tribal spokesman when it came to negotiations and trade with the Federation. Talvek had the opportunity to attend many of the meetings and at times became frustrated with how affairs were being handled by both sides. His people didn’t always open their minds to greater possibilities, or so he thought and things would go smoother between the two parties if his father would agree to visit Earth and learn more about human cultures and the Federation. Renvek was stubborn and proud (as Dohltehruns often are) so Talvek volunteered to go to Earth, attend the academy, and learn more about humans, since he was to be the next spokesman for his tribe.
At the academy Talvek at first found it difficult to be around so many other species since they mostly communicated through vocalization. However after a year of studying interspecies protocols he learned how to better communicate and understand the views of different species. He went into diplomacy and graduated 6 years after completing his studies and passing the final exams.
His first assignment kept him on Earth in San Francisco for 15 years; he worked in interstellar communications and traveled to and from his homeworld to bridge the gap between the two cultures. It wasn’t easy to represent and hear both sides but international affairs ran smoother that way. Though he enjoyed working in communications with his people he wanted to meet new species and continue his personal studies on first contact protocols. When Odyssey had an opening in the Diplomatic department he jumped on the offer.
== Appearance ==
He’s 7 feet tall, thin and lanky looking. He has thick black hair, and violet eyes. 
Other identifying features: A 9inch family tribal tattoo in the center of his upper back like all Dolhtehruns.
== Personality ==
Talvek firmly believes in following orders from superior officers. Even if it means going against what he personally believes. He’s extremely loyal and has a calm observant personality. He doesn’t get angry easily but will clench his jaw and frown when annoyed.
== Psych Evaluation ==
He’s very determined and will spend lots of time working. At times he can appear rigid and uncaring when he’s trying to be professional.
