The files leading up to Torgan gro-Khaduk finding himself in Starfleet - was about what one would expect. A countryboy born to a family of hard workers with a particular penchant an protective instinct of those who were around himself. Passable grades but the barest measure of application to his studies. Every perception of the youth growing up was that he would enter into service of ground force military or even venture to seek out purely as a marine. A student of conflict - a fighter of his own right - he had a build that would work well for the measure of direct battle and a willingness to learn new ways to fight whether that is unarmed combat, armed combat, or utilization of any measure of energy based weapons.
The reports of his educators to this point holding well that Torgan was the type of person who hadnt really pushed himself. Some of the few testing patterns of him being when he arranged what amounted to laser tag amidst cadets of the academy in a large scale war of sorts using the simplest measure of weaponry but using what they had learned as the basic measures of combat and strategy lessons in different teams. Some instructors designating that Torgan was the type who should only be told ‘you cant do that - its impossible’ unless its an absolute emergency as Torgan it the type of person that if lives were in danger he would risk every bit of himself to accomplish the task which had been proven by moving materials and gearing when others were unable to do so and equipment for the proper measure of movement was inoperable he had realized it was a risk to others and had stressed himself seeking to push the materials out of the way moving it himself or when told it would be impossible to get access to a location he tried to MAKE access. The greatest surprise for those who came before in his studies was when being scolded for not really applying himself in his studies he had been told that to truly meet expectations of grades he would have to seek out additional coursework which lead to a minor in the sciences revolving around Weapons after an instructor let slip that Explosives are based on Science and lead to a nearly overnight binge watch of the vintage video recording of a show called McGyver.
Now…there he stood…the towering form in a clean well prepared uniform standing at the door of the Chief of Security…thinking in that moment of all of the roads and paths that lead to this point…his hand slowly reaching out tapping the call button lightly…patiently waiting for the bid to enter when they were ready for him and once permission was granted he stepped forward calmly but steadily entering in before pausing form going to attention.
“Cadet Torgan gro-Khaduk reporting for duty…” he spoke with every bit of the southern accent that the work horses among humanity so often had.
