## Biography

Born to a Trill scientist couple, Fenon spent the first few years of his life moving from assignment to assignment with his parents. Tragically, shortly after his fourth birthday, his parents were killed when the experimental warp core they were developing breached during a test run. He was adopted by a human couple serving in Starfleet who had been close friends of his parents. His adoptive parents did their best to make sure Fenon was exposed to his Trill cultural heritage, but his adoptive Grandmother, in particular, was a massive influence on Fenon's formative years. So, it was he decided at a young age to follow his grandmother's footsteps and pursue a career in medicine.

Fenon excelled in his studies and applied to both join Starfleet and to the Trill Symbiosis Commission to be joined. He never held much hope for his application to be joined, so when he wasn't immediately accepted, he dedicated his efforts towards Starfleet and specifically a career in Starfleet Medical. After graduating from the academy, he was surprised to receive notification from the Symbiosis Commission that his prior application had been accepted, he duly became the 6th host to the Perix symbiote.

Fenon Perix rejoined Starfleet and resumed his formal medical training. His foundation medical internship was on Starbase 32, which unlike a shipboard assignment did not provide many opportunities for experience outside of Sick Bay. Fenon, therefore, began volunteering as a Search & Rescue team member, which he found unusually fulfilling. So much so it even influenced his studies to the point that he developed specialisms in not only Biology, Exo-Biology and Infectious Disease Control, but also Emergency Medicine and Disaster Relief.

After serving out his time as a Junior Doctor aborad the USS Raleigh, he began a research fellowship at Starfleet Medical. It was here that Fenon rekindled his interest in Emergency Medicine, and along with a team from Utopia Planetia, was credited with designing an adapted Yellowstone Class runabout as a dedicated field ambulance and treatment centre. The so called 'Gray Goose' class (named primarily for Dr Henry Gray, author of the iconic Grays Anatomy reference manual), set a new standard in medical treatment and care possible in the field, and actually had more extensive medical facilities than some starships in service at the time.

With the end of his research fellowship, he accepted a commission aboard the USS Hood as the ships CMO. The posting was a welcome change to the research lab and Dr Perix was happy immersing himself in his work and looking after his crew. While aboard the Hood Dr Perix completed his bridge officer qualification, along with developing further qualifications in Bio-science, Microbiology and Exo-Microbiology. His service aboard the Hood was mostly quiet and successful, however the onset of the Iconian War shattered the peace. The Hood, caught out of position during the initial Iconian advances, was severely damaged in battle. Dr Perix and his team were credited with saving many of their shipmates during and after the battle, but the ship herself required extensive repairs in space dock effectively taking her out of commission. With the Hood out of the action, Dr Perix, and most of the rest of the crew, were reassigned to assist the war effort. With his prior interest and qualifications in disaster relief and emergency medicine, Dr Perix joined Starfleet Disaster Response which was conducting search and rescue missions into heavily contested war zones.

The onset of the Iconian War affected all Alliance and allied races. In response Operation Searchlight was established bringing together Search & Rescue specialists from across the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. The Federations own Starfleet Disaster Response unit was folded into the joint operation. Operation Searchlight members were formed into HART teams (Hazard Area Response Team) who were deployed at short notice to areas still being fought over to perform search & rescue missions to the often overlooked and forgotten civilian populations. Fenon having been transferred to Operation Searchlight with the rest of Starfleet Disaster Response, thrived in this environment and named team lead for HART team Alpha 12. He was cited for bravery for his efforts during the war.

Operation Searchlight was eventually scaled back after the Iconian War ended and the following Hur'q Crisis subsided. Fenon, not wanting 'a boring desk job in a stuffy office at Starfleet Medical' was re-assigned to JTF Bellerophon and assigned as the CMO on Olympus Station.
