Personal History

Lon was born near the Betazoid capital of Rixx, and was given up for adoption immediately following his birth. He spent his first year in a publicly funded orphanage, before being adopted by Tobi and Eliisia Nren. The couple was never able to conceive, so they adopted 3 orphaned children. Lon was raised with twins Kettara and Kelanna (5 years his senior), is a middle class home by the Opal Sea on Betazed. Tobi worked as the Head Chef for the Ral Family of the Fifth House of Betazed. He always enjoyed the job and allowed the children to go to work with him and help in the kitchen. Eliisia worked with a Couturier in Rixx. It is because of this that the children were always dressed immaculately and on the latest trend. In his downtime, Lon liked exploring the jungle like atmosphere along the sea side. Lon's natural psionic abilities never full developed, due in part to his infant trauma, he has honed a very faint Empathic ability but even that is generously limited. His Adoptive Parents were happy to be able to send Lon to the University of Betazed, when he studied history. He enjoyed his time at the school, having made many good friends while there. He even met a boy with whom he bonded. This bond was unlike any other he had felt. It was a romantic feeling, one he could not deny. The boy, named Keltho, had eyes for another and so Lon's feeling went unrequited. This cause a bit of coldness to spring from Lon, and to his present day he remains weary of opening himself to others in that way. Lon graduated the University and found no use for his degree. He decided to go to work with his father in the Kitchens of the Fifth House. Although Lon enjoyed his work and the time it afforded him to spend with his family, he found himself longing for change. After some discussion with his parents and some research on his own part, he signed a civilian contract with Starfleet to work in a lounge on a Starship.
