History
Early Life
He was born on Barzan II, the homeworld of the Barzan people. He lived in a large family and was considered one of the youngest. But it doesn’t mean that he was not having an easy life. The Barzan life was still seen as a resource-poor species depending on others for generations and working on various asteroid belts or low-paid jobs. Mkana was no exception, as he joined his father at an early age in asteroid ice mining. He was part of this business and harsh life for five years until he turned his back on his family business and applied to Starfleet for a better prospect of life. His family disapproved of it, his father mostly ignored him until he left, and they have not talked.
Starfleet Life
Starfleet Academy
He was accepted at 18, to his surprise, and while he had an extended skill set in the field of gravity, space, and asteroids. He still excels in Exology, Sociology, and Criminal Justice. He enjoyed his years at the academy and looked forward to finally living on the frontier that was unknown to him. Instructors advise him to go in the direction of command for his natural charm for leadership and grow in that direction. The last year, he followed teachers’ advice and applied for the command division at any assignment.
USS Colombia
