Thelek has a serious dislike for Tellarites. Although he will not speak of it openly. He also does not take kindly to insults of his clan. To insult an Andorians clan is to insult him and his entire race.Thelek can be found on the holodeck during his off duty time. A friend has recently sent him a holodeck simulation of Yosemite National Park on Earth. After graduating from the academy, he went camping there before his assignment to the Cocoon Fleet. During that time, he fell in love with this breathtaking location. Thelek was born and raised on the Th'allt colony. His family is a member of the Andorian Clan of Miners. At a young age he joined his father in the rodnium mines in the asteroid field near Th'allt. He worked with his father for several years as a supply coordinator for the mining colony. When he became 19 years old the Uvar family was granted mining rights to the entire belt by the Andorian Clan of Miners. His father became very wealthy as he took over the entire operation. Soon after, the claim was disputed by the Rotog mining consortium (a Tellarite controlled organization). Thelek's father would not even acknowledge that there was such a dispute. It wasn't until several 'accidents' took place in the mines that Thoran agreed to allow a Maqui mediator to intervene. After a full investigation the official sided with the Rotog consortium. Although it was never proven, Thelek suspected that the official was bribed by the Tellarites. After loosing that decision Thelek's father was stripped of all wealth an titles. He returned home to Andor, a poor and broken man. Following that, Thelek applied to SF Academy, hoping to make a better life for his family and to possibly right the injustice that was done to his father. Special notes.: Extremely hot climates can cause Thelek to loose his temper and or act irrationally. This is a by-product of the cooler than normal Andorian climate.
