== Starfleet History ==
Ensign Thom Far Eye Trueshot Hania (jg) has graduated from the [[Starfleet Academy]] on Holodeck 8, with the infamous [[Standorval Thrall]] as his instructor. His is one of the Native American tribes that fled from the depradations of the white man on Earth's ecological systems to [[Necron Red II]], not long after [[Zephram Cochrane]] developed warp drive.

Ensign Hania is now on the USS Nimitz, serving in the Tactical Security department.

== Medical History ==
Thom, as many of his race, is overly sensitive to heat and bright light. He has protective lenses as implants for his eyes, and he burns more easily with exposure to UV rays. The only other problems are tribal genetic markers in regard to diabetes and alcohol intoxication. Thom is a teetotaler and has a diet based on whole foods. Thom had some animal bites due to his inexperience early on when still in training with his mother. 

== Hobbies ==
Thom likes to talk and socialize with others. Thom enjoys talking shop and tech as well as talking about his hobbies, Starfleet politics and personal experiences. Thom likes non-linear art, tribal music, whale songs, meditation, and shamanic prayer. Old earth movies, except biased traditional westerns are favorites. Archery is a big part of his life and he has studied both traditional Native American Indian Archery and Zen Archery. Rock climbing, camping, white water rafting and spelunking are also favorite pastimes. 

== Skills and Abilities ==
Given the [[Necron Red II]]'s heavier gravity, Thom is surprisingly stronger and faster than his size and weight would indicate. The low level illumination also gave him exceptionally good night vision. As individual, and an expert archer, Thom has exceptional distance vision as well. Because of Necron Red's dimmer illumination Thom has better cold tolerance than his terrestrial ancestors. 

His intuitive and shamanic gifts give Thom a heightened environmental awareness, making him much more difficult to surprise and less easy to deceive. Because of his awareness of nature of earth and animal spirits he relates to animals on a more natural and instinctive level and exercises some foreknowledge of their actions and behaviors. In the same way he can relate to and understand those members of either more primitive or emotional driven cultures, ie Klingons, Andorians and Telerites. This ability is instinctive rather than empathic or telepathic. Likewise his intuitive, spirit oriented, awareness can, at times, also give him heightened sensitivity to things that might be classified as spirits per se, non-corporal or extra-dimensional beings and other anomalous phenomena not perceivable through the normal human senses, or through traditional scientific instrunentation. 

In terms of earth spirits, his inner awareness and shaman-like knowledge can, with proper preparation, allow him to dowse for liquids and minerals hidden beneath the soil of a given planet’s surface. He is intuitively aware if consumable foods and liquids have toxins and dangerous impurities in them. Though this is something most others of the TC tribes can do, given the cold dessert surface of [[Necron Red II]].

== Miscellaneous Information ==
Thom dates heterosexually, when the mutual attraction is there. He has no aversion to dating outside his species as long as they are humanoid and therefore compatible. Though gregarious, Thom feels like a loner and misses his people and his home planet. Thom has an aversion to bigotry and prejudice based on race.
