Horace Jefferson

Horace Jefferson is the Chief Security Officer of the USS Brahe.

Background

Early Life

Horace was born in the suburbs of Greensboro, North Carolina in the summer of 2394. Despite his terrestrial birth, Horace’s family has deep roots in Starfleet. A fourth-generation but first commissioned officer–Horace was academically average, though scored particularly well in the use of short and long arms.

Career

During a First Contact with the Kit Commune, Horace was severally injured when a Kit, under the command of B’da K’mnzi, rended his abdomen with a nah’hala, a pole arm that is anything but ceremonial. Horace spent several months recovering while new organs were generated and grafted into place.
