Personal History:

Nouvelle Daena is the oldest daughter of Yunala and Cidran, her mother and father, and is part of the Ronsol Family, or Clan Ronsol. Most clans live in large homes with extended family. Clan Ronsol is no different. Daena's family lives with Nouvelle Rikala and Yojim, her grandparents on her mother's side. Rikala is the Clan Elder and also happens to be the High Elder of the Nouvelle Tribe, a position Rikala takes with great pride. She sometimes wishes her granddaughter would see the same.

 

Rikala and Yojim are very close to Daena, sometimes viewing her as their own child. Their nickname for her is Little Flower. Daena loves her grandparents very much, but sometimes has trouble with their old ways and Mithraan tradition in general. For instance, it was customary in the Nouvelle Tribes to arrange bonding (marriage) and Daena was paired with a young man from another clan. Daena disliked the idea, but was persuaded by her family to comply. She later refused when she discovered her younger sister Lynal was in love with the man to be her mate. Dishonor would have fallen upon the Ronsol clan if a bond was not made. Daena suggested the bond be made with Lynal, which was refused at first, but accepted when the couple's true feelings were revealed.

 

The Ronsol Clan was known as great virtuosos of art, painting in particular. Ronsol art has become even more popular since it has been spread throughout the Alpha Quadrant. Daena herself is a good painter, but she does not compare with her mother and grandmother. Rikala, as with most Clan Elders, is Daena's teacher in the arts.

 

For decades, outside influences have helped shape the minds of the younger Mithraans. Daena was no different. She was particularly interested in science and space. Using her grandmother's influence in the higher councils, Daena was able to meet many different people from off world. It was here her passion to travel the stars bloomed.

 

Rikala was disappointed at first with Daena's eagerness, but soon accepted it. She allowed Daena to spend time with many of the Federation ambassadors and scientists that visited Mithra. It was during this time Mithra finally accepted membership into the Federation of Planets. Many were excited about the new prospects this would bring, but none were as excited as Daena. Her new friends had convinced her to sign up to join Starfleet Academy. This was her chance to finally fulfill her dream of traveling the stars.

 

When Daena announced that she was going to join the Academy, her clan, and much of the Nouvelle Tribe's older community were appalled. Many blamed Rikala for not keeping her grandchild under tighter reigns. It took a bit of convincing, but Rikala saw the good that would come of this. She also knew Daena would never be happy if she didn't follow her dreams. Eventually Rikala gave Daena her blessing on the condition that even while she was away, Daena would continue her studies in art. Daena agreed and a month later, she was on her way to Earth.

 

 

Academy:

Daena was not the smartest or most gifted student in her science classes, but she was the most determined. Not only did she have her self ambitions to fulfill, the young Mithraan had her clan, and more importantly her entire race to represent. Daena is the only Mithraan to enter Starfleet Academy.

 

After completing all of her basic science courses, Daena continued her studies into botany, the study of plant life.

 

 

Personality Profile:

Daena is a shy, but kind individual and is capable of speaking out when she needs to. Once she opens up, she is very friendly.

 

During her stay at the academy, Daena came across two stray kittens. Feeling a kindred spirit, she took them in. The white kitten she named Fluffy, the black is Cozy. Sometimes she playfully refers to them as her girlfriends or roommates.

Information on the Mithraan Race:

 

Physical Description:

Mithraans are a cat-like race, and are considered distant cousins to the Caitians. Mithraans are human in appearance with a few exceptions. They have cat ears, and a long tail. Mithraans also have fangs and claws, but they are not dominating in their appearance. Eye, fur, and hair colors also vary, ranging from typical colors (Blonde and Brunette) to more exotic like green, pink, purple, and blue.

 

Physically Mithraans are faster and more agile than most humanoid races. They have a heightened sense of smell, night vision, excellent hearing, and are sometimes sensitive to touch (The tail being the most sensitive.) Mithraans also have an extended lifespan, averaging between 175 and 200 years.

 

-------------------------

Solar System:

The Mithraan System is located between Cait and the Gorn Empire. There are six planets that revolve around the Mithraan Sun. Mithra IV is the home world and only inhabitable planet. Mithra VI, however, can be livable through terraforming. Talks are now proceeding to explore this possibility.

 

 

Planet Information:

Mithra IV is a class M planet, very much like planet Earth.

 

There are six major cities, and many smaller cities and communities scattered amongst the almost seemingly never ending forests. Each major city represents a capitol for each Mithraan tribe, Vana'Diel being the capitol of the entire planet.

 

-------------------------

About the People:

The Mithraan's are a religiously centered race. They value religion and traditions above all else. Their government and society has revolved mostly around a matriarchal view, where the female have been dominant. This has begun to change however; due to Federation and other outside influences in the past couple centuries.

 

The elders are viewed upon with great respect in their community, as they are not only the priestesses of the tribes, but they are also members of the ruling council. Clan Elders represent each family or house, while High Elders represent each tribe. The Grand Elder represents all of Mithra.

 

Violence has never been a trait in the Mithraan. However, there have been small factional wars in their history.

 

-------------------------

Each Mithraan is addressed by given name, or by tribe name followed by their given (Ex. Daena or Nouvelle Daena.) Never refer to a Mithraan by their tribe name only, as it refers to their patron goddess/god. For most ceremonial purposes, the clan name is added to the end (ex. Nouvelle Daena of Clan Ronsol.) The Grand Elder loses her clan name, as she represents the entire Mithraan people.

 

-------------------------

Six gods center on the Mithraan's beliefs, as they are not only represented in religion, but all things in the Mithraan way of life. There are six tribes that each follows a path their god has laid out before them, and each god/tribe has a capitol city.

 

Mother Yuka is known as the "Mother of All" and also "The Unifier." She is the mother of the other five gods. Regardless of tribe, all Mithraans pay homage to Yuka, as each child is blessed upon birth. It is believed her love encompasses the entire planet. In most Mithraan art, she is portrayed as a beautiful woman with angel wings and long flowing robes. The Yuka Tribe is viewed as the holiest of the other tribes. Most members of this tribe become priestesses or politicians. The capitol of the Yuka Tribe is Vana'Diel, which happens to be the planet's capitol. Most Grand Elders are from the Yuka Tribe, although there have been some cases where that is not true. The current Grand Elder is Yuka Shelinda of Mithraan.

 

Larc is the oldest child of Yuka. He is the strongest and most courageous over all of his siblings. Justice is Larc's highest quality. He is portrayed with large claws and golden armor. The Larc Tribe is viewed as the bravest among the Mithraans. They serve the people as policemen, judges, and militia. The capitol of the Larc Tribe is Vandise.

 

Nouvelle is the oldest daughter and second born to Yuka. Her grace and beauty surpasses all others. She has a strong love for the arts, and also has been referred to as the Goddess of Passion. She is portrayed as a very beautiful woman with calico fur, each color representing an art; sculpting, painting, theatre, and dance. Her followers are all artists of various designs. Daena's entire clan is members of this tribe, hence why she is sometimes referred to as Nouvelle Daena. Fa'Diel is Nouvelle's capitol, Daena's birthplace and home all her life. Nouvelle Rikala, Daena's grandmother, is the High Elder of the Nouvelle Tribe.

 

Elazul is Yuka's third born. He is sometimes viewed as the twin brother of Nouvelle. Elazul was a musical genius, which many believed could tame the wildest of beasts. It was written that his music ended wars before they could even begin. Elazul is shown as a young man with white robes and is almost always carrying a lyre of some type. His followers are musicians and entertainers. Elazul's capitol is Capella.

 

Teapo is Yuka's youngest son. Amongst his other siblings, he is the most hardworking and humbled. He represents agriculture and commerce. Teapo is portrayed as a man in peasants clothing, a crown of leaves on his head, a farming tool in one hand, and gold coins in the others. His followers are farmers, merchants, and shamans before medicine was discovered. Teapo's capitol is Jumi.

 

Duelle is the youngest child and daughter to Yuka. She is considered the baby in the family, but she is also the smartest, as she represents the growth of science and medicine. She is portrayed as a young child with a glowing star in one hand, and glowing heart in the other. Her followers are scholars, scientists, and doctors. Duelle's capitol is Elysia.

 

For most of Mithraan history, clan members followed only one god and as such were required to follow their laid out profession. If a Mithraan wanted to follow a different path then they must switch tribes. In order to do so they had to go through difficult trials in order to gain favor of their new god. Much of this has become blurred with the influence of the Federation. Many of the elders and older clans still cling to such traditions, however.

 

-------------------------

The Federation:

Mithra was discovered by Starfleet in 2252. Twenty years after Mithra IV was discovered, first contact was finally made. Captain Conrad Mitchell and a team of Federation diplomats met with the Grand Elder, Yuka Calli of Mithaan. Mitchell proposed the possibility of joining the Federation in the future, but felt that the Mithaan's were not quite ready. A trading pact was made with the Federation and other races not long after, giving a boost in the Mithraan economy. In 2371 the Federation finally reevaluated the Mithraan people and was prepared to accept them into membership. Unfortunately the looming threat of the Dominion forced the Federation to postpone the signing, and even counseled the Mithraan to sign a Non-Aggression Pact. It wasn't until 2375, after the Dominion War, that the Mithraan were officially accepted into the Federation.
