Jaton Belden was a leading member of the Trill Science Ministry during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He was also the second host of the Belden Symbiont.

Early Life

Jaton was born in 1730 in the A'Pili Province of Trill, to Davin and Aren Aderyn, the second of three children. As the A'Pili Province was very mountainous, his parents both worked as guides to tourists climimg Mt. Milima, the highest peak on Trill. It was assumed that Jaton would go into the same line of work as his parents, but he grew increasingly discontent with his life there, and left for Mak'ala when he turned 18. At that time, he applied to the Trill Symbiosis Academy, and was chosen to become an initiate.

Life as an Initiate

Jaton came under the tutelage of Erod Belden with a large chip on his shoulder. By the time he came under the care of the aging ambassador, he was on the verge of being dropped from the initiate program in the grouinds of juvenile delinquency. However, after about six months of living with Erod, he became much less belligerent and thought of Erod almost like a grandfather. The two became very close, and Erod became Jaton's greatest friend in his young life. When Erod died in 1750, Jaton complied with his wishes and was joined, with the approval of the Trill Symbiosis Commission, with the Belden Symbiont, becoming the second host.

Career

Soon after being joined, Jaton applied for an internship in the Trill Science Ministry, a calling which he had felt since he was a child in A'Pili.
