Personal Biography
        Born the only son of a merchant captain and a suspected upper level member of the Orion Syndicate, Mik Keron was born Mike Keron, but with an older cousin named Mike, he legally changed his name at the age of 18 to Mik. A genius in engineering matters, Mik was building his own shuttle by age 12, and holds a certified civilian pilot's rating.
        Applying to Starfleet Academy at age 19, he was accepted. However two weeks before the opening week of classes, he was detained, held, and interrogated for 12 days before relasing him without charges. Starfleet Security claimed they followed an open warrant on his family in concern to his father's ties to the Orion Syndicate. Mik promptly resigned his admission into the Academy. Recently, declassified Starfleet Security interrogation room recordings have come to appear, in which Mik Keron was beaten and even tortured during that period.
        Following his resignation, he went to work for his father's company, his skills at engineering, piloting, and organization put him in good stead, allowing him to enhance his Father's work. Following his father's death, Mik took over his father's holdings, using them and his skills to advance into becoming a high-level member of the Orion Syndicate. When one of his top Lieutenants went in to deal with Federation prosecutors in exchange for immunity, Mik revealed his skill. Two days before charges could be made, Mik Keron renounced his Federation citizenship and officially became a Bajoran citizen. The Federation prosecutor tried to extradite him, however, with the death of the witness, killed along with two Federation agents guarding him, the case was dismissed for lack of evidence. Three days after the case was dismissed, the Federation prosecutor was found dead of a heart attack on Risa.
        One week later, Mik was sworn in as a Major in the Bajoran Militia and assigned at his request as liason officer to Deep Space Nine. A Bajoran citizen in more than just name, Keron has embraced the Bajoran culture, he has often been seen in Temple. Serving on the station as liason officer until Captain Sheridan asked him to take over as Chief of Security. Major Keron cracked down on the security of the station, enacting security measures to keep the station clear of any changeling intruders, though with the war confined to the Gamma Quadrant, the majority of his duties were keeping the station under control.
        Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, he has became more involved in Bajoran affairs, including taking his late cousin's work and modifying it into the Bajoran Defense Grid designed from the events of the Coalition of Allied Planets attack upon Earth. Following the biological agent attack upon Bajor, Colonel Keron has been involved in the rebuilding effort of the Bajoran people and government. As a member of the Orion Syndicate, Mik approached the newly elected President of the United Federation of Planets with an offer from the Syndicate. Though for now it is only rumor what they have discussed, Colonel Keron was granted a full Presidential pardon for all prior acts in regards to the Orion Syndicate.
        With a promotion in early 2433 to Full Colonel, Colonel Keron remains a fixture in Bajoran affairs. A bitter opponent of Bajoran joining either the Federation or the then Coalition, his views as a Seperatist made him part of the minority among Bajoran officials, however Keron's finances even now make him a serious threat to the political leaders of Bajor. Never married, Colonel Keron pays financial support for his daughter Jasmine, to Alexa Klein. Though he's been seen in the company of Lieutenant Devra Andora.
        With the Bajoran entrance into the Confederation of Independent Systems, Colonel Keron remains loyal to Bajor, even though it has meant having to work for now President Cartwright.

Known Holdings
        Pan-Galactic Trading Imporium (Headquarters: Bajor VI) - An import/export business known for acquiring and transporting the rare, hard to get, and high quality items. Federation Intellegence sources have discovered that the company has recently purchased an outdated Cardassian Military Shipyard and has moved it to an unknown location. Intellegence sources have yet to discover the reasons for this.
        Galaxy Replication Corporation (Headquarters: Bajor VIII) - A personal replicator dealer/manufacturer also known for creating Dabo tables. Recently this corporation has expanded it's operations to a large station based factory near Bajor VI. Starfleet Security has observed numerous transports with the Pan-Galactic logo coming to and from the station based factory complex, however none have docked at any Starfleet facility besides Deep Space Nine, and has thus far in all cases at Deep Space Nine been cleared of any contraband or cargo supplies. Starfleet Security suspects Colonel Keron is falsifying or misleading inspections, but no charges or evidence exists to the contrary.
        Interstellar Agricultural Manufacturers (Headquarters: New Zealand, Earth) - A corporation dedicated to making and developing agricultural equipment for export. A new construction facility was built near the outer reaches of Federation space, for reasons unknown. A undercover Starfleet Security agent managed to infiltrate the facility, only to discover the high volume production of some sort of vats, however the purpose of them is unknown at this time. The agent had to be pulled following this discovery.
        Bajoran Defense Council (Headquarters: Rakantha Province, Bajor) - Founded by Mik Keron and several members of the Bajoran government, the Bajoran Defense Council is an organization seeking Bajoran independence and pushing towards the formation of a Bajoran Fleet capable of defending Bajor's interests. This organization opposes a return to Federation membership for Bajor. Following his promotion to Lieutenant Colonel, the Bajoran Defense Council (BDC) has expanded into no longer an organization but an armament company. The BDC produced the defense platforms used in the Bajoran Defense Grid. Further Starfleet Intellegence has noted that the BDC has been hiring Bajoran designers and even retired Starfleet ship designers to a secure facility on Bajor VIII. Starfleet Intellegence has been unsuccessful in gaining access to either the designers or the facility.
