Starfleet History

Performs duties as Liason to the Gorn Ambassador to the Federation in addition to duties on board the ship. In 2390, he purchased a derelict, but intact Constitution-Class vessel from a Ferengi surplus yard, the USS Lexington NCC-1709. He discovered the Federation reported the ship lost with all hands after shakedown following the Constitution-II refit. He returned all crew belongings and computer core to the Federation in exchange for retaining ownership of the vessel. The Federation accepted this, considering the ship was over a century out of date. He spent a great deal of time performing a massive refit of this ship, lovingly dubbed Constitution-III, as a test bed for new technologies, both developed by the Gorn or 'acquired' by them , though officially he still retains ownership as a civilian vessel to avoid any treaty violations. The vessel is currently parked at the Surplus depot orbiting Ghdar III.

Medical History

Every six months, as with most Gorn, he sheds his skins. a few days before and after, his skin becomes horribly itchy and it makes him just a bit irritable. Due to Gorn physiology, he is unable to process replicated meats as all of his meals must be live. Because of this, he tends to eat alone.

Skilled at Planetary surveying and Geology, Starship design and construction, Alien biology, Stellar Cartography, Planetary and Subspace anomalies, Quantum Mechanics, Temporal Mechanics, and Subspace Physics.

Hobbies

Primarily hunting as a means to channel naturally aggressive tendencies. Otherwise, he spends his time experimenting with terraforming technologies or other experiments as needed by Starfleet and the Gorn Hegemony.

General Notes

Serixs can seem cold and very serious at first, but only until he has the opportunity to get to know someone. His sense of humor is fairly dry and sometimes it can be difficult to tell when he's being serious or telling a joke.
