Ensign Ryan Gold is a diplomatic officer on the USS Odyssey.

## Background

2th son of a wealthy family in the northern territory of Sigma Iotia II, He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth but it doesn’t mean he had it completely easy as his father was an old-timer. constantly training his children throughout their childhood and teenage years on how to defend himself (even going so far as to put THEM in direct danger to see if they would even apply what he learned), swindle people, pickpocket, showing how to keep employees in line and most importantly how to dress to impress which shows to this day.

This was all prep to take over the business HOWEVER Ryan had other ideas and instead signed up for Starfleet and joined what he felt he was already prepped for by his father...the diplomatic division.

His time in the academy was a bit...Hectic, not really for him but more for his teachers and the academy’s security team as he was a bit of an old time lothian you could say. Pulling fast ones on people (snatching things out of their pocket or hands but ofc bring it back for example°, pranking, convincing people of fake rumours and he even created his own clique of 3 people who had his back and helped him with his stunt. luckily he was smart enough never to overdo anything or do anything worth criminal charges.

As he graduated he spend some time on Starfleet trading vessels, being a bit of a pain in the ass to his commanding officers regarding uniform but for the rest, he was what you would expect from a Starfleet diplomat! he did his job well enough to be transferred to the odyssey

## Appearance

He is a very well kept and groomed gentlemen, he often ignores Starfleet regulations regarding uniform and wears suits instead of the provided uniform. all his clothing consists of old-time suits and general expensive suits which often have a Starfleet pin on them

he also has a collection of canes that he uses daily for some extra swagger.

## Personality

He’s an opinionated gentleman, laybacked, however, he treats everyone as his equal and beliefs in the power of speech more than the power of one’s fist...but even so he’s not shy to get in a fight. He doesn’t have much trouble with authority but as mentioned before he loves wearing his suits and look dapper, unlike what regulations demand.

## Psych Evaluation

He is mentally sound and has a stiff upper lip, however, if somebody manages to make him angry (which is not an easy task) security is advised to rush to the location
