Personality
Pesh'ewa is usually an easy-going person. However, he takes his job and his duties very seriously and has committed himself to serving Starfleet to the best of his abilities. Pesh'ewa does not appreciate or tolerate some humans snide remarks about his species, as his very loyal to his homeland of Cait and their deity the Goddess. When irritated or provoked, Pesh'ewa's more animalistic instincts can and will take over, proving him to be a fierce fighter and protector. Pesh'ewa is very sensitive to minute changes in the environment around him, both the sights and sounds, as well as the overall atmosphere, as Caitians possess an innate sense of danger. This ability has proven valuable both personally and within his career at Starfleet. It also makes him an excellent candidate for surveying a situation on an away team mission or in a diplomatic setting. Because the human tongue is different than the native Caitian language, Pesh'ewa's words often have drawn out s and r sounds when he speaks.
History
Following his desire to become a Starfleet Officer, Pesh'ewa entered Starfleet at the age of 19, a standard age for a Caitian to venture off planet and into Starfleet if desired.
He was soon faced with the challenge of deciding on a field. He worked for awhile in both Operations and Security, however, he found his true love in Engineering. Over the years, his precision work and attention to details has paid off. He worked his way up the ranks until he was serving as an assistant to the chief on a large Starfleet vessel.
His first break came when a new Chief Engineer was needed on a smaller vessel. This was Pesh'ewa's big break. After serving there and falling in love with that ship, Pesh'ewa found it hard to leave her, but he couldn't pass up the opportunity to serve on such a stellar vessel as the Nike.
Pesh'ewa has enjoyed reuniting with many of his friends from the Crudaigh over the years and making many new ones as well. His biggest joy, however, was finding his mate, Fau'cheth while first assigned to the Nike.
A few years ago, both he and Fau took a year long leave of absence from Starfleet to return home to Cait. There they had a litter of 4 little Caitians. Following that, they returned and Pesh'ewa was pleased that he was able to return to his duties as Chief Engineer on the Nike. He has remained in that position ever since.
Sample Role Play
Pesh'ewa roamed the corridors of the Falcon. She might have been a small vessel compared to so many others in Starfleet, but in a way she would always be Pesh's first 'true' love. It was here that he had first held the position of Chief of Engineer. He had come to know all parts of the Falcon. She ran like a well-oiled machine because he treated her with the respect she deserved. He would miss her.
He was taking this, his final tour, as a kind of farewell. He knew that he was needed elsewhere and that the Falcon would be in good hands with the chief, yet it was still hard for Pesh to say goodbye to a ship he loved so much.
Stopping outside the transporter room doors, Pesh'ewa turned to look down the nearly deserted corridors once again. Most of the crew was enjoying a nice respite while they were docked, yet for Pesh it was like a heart-wrenching goodbye.
"Goodbye, my friend. I hope we meet again someday. You've taught me so much. I will do my best to use and share that knowledge in the future." Then, with a final touch, he ran his fingers along the wall as the doors to the room swished open. Now began his next journey. He was off to serve aboard the USS Nike.
