Maictar’du

Maictar'du is the Head Chef on the USS Odyssey.

## Background

He had a bit of a weird family growing up seeing his father was a Hupyrian and his mother was of the Amarie species, which caused him to not quite look like the typical Hupyrian which made him a bit of an attraction when put in public.

He grew up aboard a private Long haul cargo ship who not hauled but could also be requested, at least his mother and member of the crew, to perform for partys across the galaxy by the time he was 18 he would have seen the entire alpha a quadrant and parts of the beta quadrant, at the age of 12  would have started working and learning from the ships chef by the age of 18 he ran the night kitchen by the age of 20 he was allowed to start leaving the ship when it was docked or landed on a planet and that's where the tutoring began for botany and engineering as he had to help to refill the kitchen while his father wanted to teach him engineering through the scrap market. by the age of 25 he was a part-time engineer on his ship while still running as the night shift cook by the age of 40 he was  the head of both night shift departments! by the age of 45 he changed to being the head of both dayshifts and by the age of 50 well he was captain sadly. Luckily throughout the years and meeting many species he has learned many o things about them. bu the age of 55 he was both captain and helped aid in the infirmary on occasion mostly after a pirate atack by the age of 70 he had a record of being saved and saving federation vessels by the age of 72 he uses his debts owed by the federation to find a place amongst starfleet...sadly he had to do some exams and those who he failed he was allowed to retake after taking some classes as a civilian, by the age of 80 he finally passed all the exams he had to take and he was assigned to the oddy as the cook and part time civilian engineer onboard a starpship!

## Side information about the long haul freighter life

His freighter life was VERY fruitful for him for only one reason, his freighter only took the most dangerous jobs who were also the best payed which allowed for plenty of crash courses in engineering and learning about exobiology and alien protocols as they traveled far and wide and he often had to cook for a wide variety of people while at the same time having to occasionally treat them together with the ship's doctor when either encountering already pirated ships or being attacked themselves BUT he gave up that life as he felt starfleet a massive amount of gratitude after saving his behind a couple of times, he also did so in return but those didn’t amount to the same grade as they where never of the bring of death like his ship often was, so thats why he joined up in starfleet as a civilian to pay back that debt While allowing his 20 children to run his ship for him together with his wife
