Background:
Sokket was born in 2346 on the Romii Plains, a small agricultural center. In early 2347, for going AWOL and dating his daughter, Custle murdered Sokket’s brother Arjkan. Sokket’s grandfather Evajed transferred Arjkan’s katra into Sokket’s young mind.
Sokket went on and excelled in Engineering, graduating second in his class from the Engineering division of the Romulan Star Academy. After graduation, he received a posting as a Lieutenant (eq. rank Lt. j.g.) and Chief Engineer aboard the Romulan Scout Ship K’korrivor.
In 2372, Sokket was injured in the line of duty in a battle with the Gorn. While injured, he still pushed the ship’s engines to the max, allowing them to outrun a Gorn cruiser and return to Romulan space with much needed intelligence. He received a promotion to Centurion (eq. rank Lt.). Over the 4 years as Chief Engineer aboard the K’korrivor grew very possessive of the ship, affectionately calling it his “baby”.
In 2374, Sokket witnessed the execution of his parents for being “Reunificationists”, Romulans advocating peace with the Federation, especially Vulcans. Days after their execution, the USS Hunter attacked and captured the K’korrivor, renaming it the Shadow. Sokket defected to the Federation so he could continue to work with the ship that he loved.
In 2376, Sokket met Kalana Aldis, and the two began a romantic relationship. In 2377 the crew of the USS Shadow stole a Aehallh vessel from the Romulan D’Traxus facility. Custle’s warbird destroyed the Shadow and critically injured Sokket. He spent the next few months recuperating.
Aboard the Phantom, Sokket met his Uncle Dr. Tavarra for the first time. Tavarra informed Sokket of his brother’s katra inside his body. Tavarra was then transferred to a camp for prisoners of war.
In 2379 Sokket was promoted to Commander and Executive Officer with the transfer of Commander Rhese. He decided to ask Dr. Aldis to marry him at the wedding celebration for Eric Millard and Elizabeth Loviath. Unfortunately, the wedding was attacked by the Dark Mane Society and the Phantom’s senior staff was taken captive. During an escape, Eric’s two sons William and Johnathon were killed, a tragedy that Sokket blames on himself.
Following the capture, Kalana was transferred to become the head of the Counseling department at Tortuga. They held a very tearful goodbye, ending their relationship.
Due to the incarceration on Ramandu, the loss of Kalana, and the ongoing abduction of Captain Harras, Arjkan’s katra has started to become more active, taking over Sokket’s mind in moments of extreme feeling.
Counsellor’s Notes:
Sokket is prone to mood swings, going from a calm controlled sensitive man to an angry, passionate near madman in a matter of seconds. He has many ghosts and pains in his life, which he seems to control usually
I suggest further counseling sessions to fully understand what is afflicting him.
