Vantrin

***Dossier access attempt 13 of 20 ... Granted. Security clearance verification ... Master clearance verified. Record available.    "Man is at his most bright where space is the most dark."   Name: Yan "Vantrin" Ti-Rin-Xu Class: Sha'ha'dem  Current Rank: Initiate Gender: Male Homeship: Research Vessel Auriga Maru, Outer orbit of Capella Education: Educated via standard video instruction and focused deep research tutoring. Formally recognised by Heirate Collegia as Mastery in: Astrocartography, Geological Sciences and Galaxy-band Wave Communications. Recognised Degree in Archaeological Art - Earth. Assigned duty: Officially, research scout for Capella. Presently on Heirate instruction as broad investigator with no jurisdiction for an indefinite period.   Details:   Medical. Given the current and ongoing deep-space research of the Auriga Maru and generational cultivation of said research, subject is well suited to Sha'ha'dem duty. The sheltered existence and propensity for the Auriga to cloak quickly and often has impacted fight-or-flight response. Not suited to combat roles or situations. Cloaking training suggested as primary defense, but observe for changes; exposure to personal dangers may encourage the fight response.   Personality. Subject is notably patient and introspective. Takes a long and measured view when assessing, moreso than even your usual Jenquai. Subject does not react quickly to new situations - but adapts effective strategies once familiar. Introspection may cause subject to be swayed by non-Jenquai influences. Continue monitoring progress and ensure sympathy for fallen Jenquai is brought to mind.   Social. Subject is inquisitive and eager to know more and be at the furthest edges. Also understands the importance of sharing information gleaned. May work best in joint ventures where sensitive information is likely to be shared anyway. Subject does not suffer fools, but is not afraid to unbutton his collar and share in jokes or frivolities. Empathy may be too strong - test responses indicated subject would sooner hide than harm a sentient hostile entity.   Skillset. Subject showed no enthusiasm for equipment construction beyond the day-to-day repair and maintenance of solo-pilot starships. Excels when discovering far-off locations and prospecting. Clearly intends to develop cloaking understanding. High empathy in subject would suggest they will develop the jumpstarting of damaged craft and ferrying via wormholes.   Career. Subject is typical of Jenquai, but loyalty may be difficult to tether in a way the Heirate may approve of. Early interaction and bonding on the Auriga Maru with a Terran who worked on a short term experiment caused the subject to favor this interaction's bastardisation of his name, to the point he prefers the nicknam now. Despite this aberration, the subject is notably of the mindset of an explorer. The concept of being the first or one of few in a dark place is when subject is in their element. Monitor for signs of disgruntlement at what subject perceives the Heirate or ones they trust would keep secret from people in general.   Affiliation. Subject is likely to excel with the Sha'ha'dem. They see the form and spirit of the universe when gathering or refining resources and minerals, and the body and action of it when surrounded by rock and star.   Loyalty. Subject shows no worrying signs of deviation from Jenquai support. They have no love for lawlessness or bloodshed, and the pursuit of knowledge and development of humanity by searching is deeply in the subject's psyche.   Please enter security clearance code two ... Master clearance granted.   Secret Details: In the event Heirate and other leaders of the Jenquai stagnate or forget what drove Ben Joseph to form what the Jenquai are today, they have ensured there remain some who devote themselves to the study and watching of things. The subject is not worryingly disloyal nor to be distrusted - his presence will help to ensure the Jenquai remain a race that looks to the stars and sees not their own magnificence and accomplishments, but what there is yet to do. While the atrocitites of the Gate War were truly atrocities, does that mean the militarisation of the Jenquai? What would Ben Joseph say?   End of Record.
