Personality & Traits

General Overview While he won't shy away from a fight when a fight is called for, he prefers to avoid a frontal assault and go for the sneak attack. Usually this is physical, his favorite weapon is his Ushaan-Tor, and he can also use poison when it is convenient. But his attacks are not always physical his words can be poisonous and he use knowledge and information about his opponents, sometimes manufactured, to put his enemies away.

He is a determined and driven young man and is extremely competitive. He enjoys activities that challenge him mentally and physically and he is a helpless romantic who believes in marriage and commitment.

He puts on a show of being friendly, sometimes bordering on being flirty. And while he will sleep with just about anyone, if it furthers his career or power, for the most part the friendliness is just a front.

He'd like to get married and have kids, even if the kids come from a surrogate or if he is adopted

He seeks to build his own power base and while he doesn't go out of his way to hurt the innocent or weak, he really doesn't give a rat's ass about them.

Personal History Keval was born on August 28, 2356 to the zh'Erinov family (he would later drop the th' from his name to make it easier for the pinkskins. Thoris and Raciel were scientists, D'nal an engineer and Seria an artist.

His sister Sitarah was two years p;der than he is. All four of his parents were Empire officers, though they were barley above the slave status who served aboard the USS Monitor. Keval and Sitrah were on the ship with them. While on shore leave at Deep Space Five, when he was eight and she was ten She was taken captive and into exile somewhere unknown while the parents were all killed, their heads cut from their bodies. Keval had been at a friend's birthday party on the ship.

The murders and abductions were investigated but there were few crews. Four ships had been stationed there and left shortly before the bodies were discovered. The first was a Vulcan Science Ship, the Sarek The second was a Romulan "merchant" ship named the Vakair. The third ship was another Empire one, a Galaxy class named the Raptor and the final ship was Ferangi with no name given. With no real clues and no possible motive the investigation came to naught and was eventually forgotten by all but Keval.

Since none of his Andorian relatives were either willing or able to take him in he was taken to earth and adopted by the Greyson family. From the time that he was nine he lived in San Diego California. His adoptive parents were very well off and he was treated like one of the family.

One the one hand that was good, he had a place to live and people who cared for him. However Ben Greyson was determined that Keval and his brothers would take over the family business, a conglomerate of communication and media outlets.

Keval wanted to pursue an MFA and was pushed into getting and MS in Electrical Engineering. A bit more technical than his brothers, despite his artistic bent, he was tasked with running Eagle Communications Research and Development department, which provides much of the Federation communication and security systems.

At age 24 he became the CTO, (Chief Technical Officer)not because of who his father was, but because of his abilities. He served in that capacity for about eighteen months before he came up with an idea to get his father off his back and gain control of the business himself. He was not in love with it, but he was in love with the money and influence that came with it. He knew that Ben would never leave it to him, but would give it to his other natural children.

So he came up with a way to get everything he wanted. So he was able to devise a new system for distribution to the Empire ships, but with a built in compromise that would allow the company to spy on any Empire ship where it was installed. He made it to be redundant. He made the first one where it could be easily detected with the finger pointed at his father. The back up system he made much more difficult to find with no electronic footprint.

Much to the chagrin of his other family members he testified against his father without hesitation. Ben was sent to a Penal Colony, Keval at age 27 joined the Empire

Due to him having and MBA already and experience in running a company, he was only at the Academy for three years.
