Description This is Dr. Garith (G-air-ith) the Caitian
He is an idea I am working on to be doctor for Sori's team

History:
Garith was abandoned as a "kitten", his parents obviously not wanting him. He was left to drift off in space in a cryogenic tube, seeming to be forgotten and left for dead. But he was lucky, as his tube drifted aimlessly though space, a federation ship came across it. The baby Garith was rescued and even adopted by a human family. He was raised by a family where both the mother and the father were in medical. So medicine was has always been his life. Though he wasn't very good at it from the beginning. His first patient was actually his self, and as you can see from his tail, he didn't do very good. While in Starfleet, he was known to faint at any sign of blood. And would be passed out through most of his studies. It seemed he would never make it through. But some how he managed to push it and graduated. He tried his hardest to get aboard a starship, it always being his dream. It was difficult, most not wanting him due to his bad reputation, but ended up getting a small place aboard the Interceptor. Though he works his hardest to get to the top.

Personality:
Garith at first seems pleasant, he will even give you a smile and nod. But that's just his "doctor" approach. He is actually easily annoyed and will express his anger without even trying to hold it back. If he can't find an answer or cannot express his anger the way he wants, he will throw things and break stuff in his wake. He doesn't care for his kind very much, having a personal hate for being abandoned. His favorite thing to do is sit in a window while the ship is close to a sun.

yeah! I've been looking at all these sites, and some facts are pretty constant but others (like dietary habits and dispositions) tend to be different.

Yeah, sometimes you have to either choose which ones sound better for you or make your own cause of all the differences oPo

yeah! right now I'm trying to figure out how to draw her; normally when I draw humanoid cats, they look more human than feline! But Caitians are more feline in appearance....

sweet! Could you tell me more about how you see the caitians? like, are they a battle species or an art species....and if they are futuristic or more native in clothing and homeworld? sorry...that's alot of questions.....!

Mcbutt3r In reply to Patchminka [2011-03-29 03:52:36 +0000 UTC]

Hm, I don't know their species as much as I know others of the Star Trek universe. So I can't really answer those questions. But for the clothing, they normally wear whatever is the clothing of where they are. o3o

Awesome. But there's one liiiiiiittle thing that doesn't add up.

Cryogenics. They haven't been employed since the 20th or 21st century. And since the Caitians are Federation members, that simply wouldn't work. I guess the part about him being abandoned is fine, though. His parents could have been offworld and they just left him somewhere, and he was rescued and adopted by a human family. That would fit in properly.

Also: the tail. In the 24th century we've made great leaps and bounds in medicine, and his tail would be easily mended. However, if he didn't want it repaired, that's fine, too. No one forces you unless it's life-threatening.

And I hope you're planning on drawing him in a Starfleet uniform, as well. What's his rank?

Overall, he's really interesting. I love his appearance and the fact that he used to faint at the sign of blood. XD

Mcbutt3r In reply to vulcanluver [2010-08-02 21:42:53 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, your right about the Cryogenics, what was I thinking? XD How about he was abandoned in an escape pod or ship? o3o

Yeah, he knows he can fix his tail,but he keeps it as a reminder that he can be a better doctor o3o

Yeah, I'm planning on giving a uniform, but I wanted to ask if when he becomes the main doctor if he can wear this? o3o I wanted him to be more like Phlox and doesn't like wearing the restricting uniform. It makes him feel trapped o3o

Yeah, the fainting from blood is a good part XD

vulcanluver In reply to Mcbutt3r [2010-08-02 22:23:36 +0000 UTC]

That would work too, but one of his parents better be a brilliant engineer, otherwise anybody would be able to track the escape pod or whatever leaving the atmosphere.

Depends. If he attended Starfleet Academy and went through all the training and all that, then he'd have to wear a regulation uniform. But if he proved to Starfleet that the regulation uniform was too restricting and he wasn't able to perform his duties to the best of his ability, then they would probably allow him to wear an alternate, less restrictive uniform.

Mcbutt3r In reply to vulcanluver [2010-08-02 22:36:04 +0000 UTC]

I'll work on his parents XD He just come into the world last night and I am still working him out XD

Well, with his fur the uniforms make him twice as hot and he gets a bit claustrophobic with it. Once his duties are over he will normally go to his quarters and rip them off. o3o

Like I said, if Starfleet is notified of an urgent and vivid reason why Garith is unable to wear the regulation uniform, they'll let him wear an alternate version. <3

Well, I'll have to inform Garith that he needs to send a reasonable request to Starfleet XD

XD I'm sure they'll understand given his species.

I'm not sure if you're a music person, but Star Trek music is some of the best ever written and played, and I'm listening to it to get me in the mood for the convention (as if I wasn't in the mood already x3). I was wondering if you'd like me to send you the links to my favorites on Evelon.
