Character’s name: Lieutenant Tanix Kashington (Former
spy, and smuggler)
Location: USS Vigilant
Position: Chief of Science
Character’s species: unknown
Character’s gender: male
Character’s age: 30 earth years (maybe)
Place of Birth: On a star ship somewhere
Background info: He lived with his parents
until the age of five, when a gang of smugglers took him away and made him
their slave. Kashington was trained in
many areas from the age of five. He
began training as a smuggler at the age of ten. He was a slave and never knew what it was like to be free,
obeying whatever his owners demanded.
At 14, he began training to be a spy and infiltrating different aspects
of his owner’s enemies to get information, or steal from them and smuggle
property out. At 18, he was trained as
a mercenary. He much preferred being a
spy, and smuggler, as he did not like killing anyone. He was sent to Star Fleet Academy in place of another applicant
who was accepted, and learned everything he could about Star Fleet. Graduating at the top of his class with
honors, he could have served Star Fleet, but he had been trained to be a spy, and
smuggler, so that was all he knew, and continued in it. Working against Star Fleet paid extremely
well, as Star Fleet had made many enemies of other species.
Tanix is now a former spy, smuggler and
mercenary. Caught by the crew of the
Vigilant, he was given a choice, be tried for his crimes against Star Fleet, or
at Captain Laurana Fitzpatrick’s mercy, work in the kitchen as a Chef at the
rank of Ensign for the next five years.
Personality: He has a tender heart, yet knows
nothing of the love of God, or His forgiveness. At times he can get very nervous, especially if a higher rank is around,
and more so if it is a higher-ranking female.
Psych and Medical records on Tanix Kashington
Kashington worked against Star
Fleet as a spy. His
motive: Plain and simple. Money.
All of his jobs were
for selfish reasons, to gain riches.
As selfish as he
is, I observed he has kindness for
others at times.
When the Captain was held on the
Borg Ship, Kashington
could have escaped by himself, but
came back to help
the Captain, knowing that she would
almost certainly
have him thrown in the brig upon
their return. He
would not leave without her and
Commander Tarin.
Before that, he was working for
Romulan renegades
against the Vigilant. In my
opinion, he should have
gone to a federation prison for his
crimes. He had
abducted a Lieutenant who was about
to board the
Vigilant, and took his place. He
had his DNA changed
and his face altered to look like
the crewman. Since
no one on Vigilant knew him, he was
able to get away
with it.
Doctor Karasov has not as yet
managed to find what
Kashington’s true DNA is. His last
DNA was altered to
make him appear medically, a
Talaxian. He has a
strange DNA that allows him to have
his DNA altered
enough to cause him to appear to be
something else,
and then medical will change him
cosmetically.
Then, Commander Kraga came along,
and saw right
through Kashington. Perhaps, that
is why Kashington
fears Kraga so much, because
Kashington can’t pull the
wool over his eyes. Kashington has
many secrets that
would take many sessions to get
them out. I’m sure we
would turn up a large variety of
deceptions that
Kashington committed against Star
Fleet, if the
Captain would allow it. Captain
Fitzpatrick seems to
think Kashington has, or might
change, and won’t allow
deep probing. I’m sure I could
uncover his secrets if
given a chance, but I will be
transferring off this
ship, and another officer and his
assistant has been
assigned to take mine, and my
assistant’s place.
