[QUOTE="Diggus Rex, post: 3271055, member: 46101"] I'll contribute ... [B][I][SIZE=2]Nimal[/SIZE][/I][/B] If no one ever trusts a Romulan, the Wanderer's chief engineer gives them no reason to. The only thing Nimal can be relied upon to do is take care of the ship and it's systems with a quiet grace that makes it look simple. Crewmen that abuse or mistreat her, as minorly as propping their boots upon consoles, usually experience small malfunctions: quarters environ controls stuck on Cardassian summer; replicators interpreting Yammok sauce as orange paint. Nimal fixes these casually with a polite apology for the inconvienience. No proof of sabotage has ever surfaced, nor would any suspect him. He's takes great pride in installing the best software and upgrades available in the Federation. How he's able to acquire these with such a modest maintenance budget is wisely left unasked. Questions to his background are often met with oblique answers. He "likes it here" in Federation space. What is a Romulan doing here? Where else would he be? Romulan space. He likes it [I]here[/I]. Always with an opinion on the given situation, Nimal is never argumentative, merely observant. Some believe his brow ridges are make up, that he's actually a Vulcan. But masquerading as the subject of much curiosity would be illogical, wouldnt it? Regardless, Chief Engineer Nimal is as productive and loyal as any member of the crew ... so far. The light green 1.9m tall Romuan wears his dark brown hair shoulder length in an uncharacteristic pony tail. His thin 85kg frame usually sports utility coveralls, which magically remains perfectrly pressed and clean no matter what job he's just finished. Cool amber eyes seem they would remain unimpressed by anything.
