Going to have to take an emergency LOA for Dranik for at least a few days. Something urgent has come up and needs to be addressed. I will try to post from my phone but it will be doubtful I'll have internet.

Character: Dranik
Ships affected: USS Discovery

Now that the current mission on Discovery is over, I'd like to return Dranik to active service. So, requesting reactivation.

I am requesting a Leave of Absence starting December 6th  through December 9th. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If anyone wishes to take control of Dranik for the duration of my leave so they can use him at tactical they are more than welcome to.

Dranik paced around his quarters on the Discovery, torn by indecision. Since the Toren attack on the Discovery, he had been tormented by thoughts of what he could have done differently and how many lives he could have possibly saved if he had destroyed more of the Toren vessels.

"Computer. Begin recording Personal Log." He instructed in an unsure voice. "Stardate...Uh...I'll fill in the Stardate later."

"I never thought I would record one of these to be honest. But I don't know who to talk to about what happened to the Discovery. Even trying to talk about it with Ciavil is creating knots in my stomach. I feel...shamed for lack of a better term. As a member of this crew, I feel as though it is my duty to support my captain, but I feel he made the wrong decision. I feel he should have gone directly to combat alert when those ships approached. But he did not."

Dranik paused for a moment and sighed.

"I feel as though I failed as well. I acted to the best of my ability to destroy or disable as many of the enemy vessels when they attacked. If I had destroyed more of them...perhaps my guilt would not be bothering me so. When we arrived at Starbase 153...I saw what happened because of our failure to stop the enemy vessels. Fifteen freighters destroyed...One hundred and eight men and women and possibly children are dead. I didn't know anyone aboard those freighters but I still feel responsible for what happened to them. And the thought of what could have happened to Ciavil is tormenting me as well. She was near one of the areas hit by the torpedoes. She's lucky she only sustained a few bruises."

Dranik could feel his anger towards the Toren growing, like a flame burning hotter and hotter until a moment later he slammed his fist against the wall and let out a snarl. "The Toren crew is lucky they are under guard at the moment. Right now I feel the urge to beat each of them to a pulp! They destroyed numerous families! One hundred and eight people have been killed! Eighty Nine people have been injured! Because of our failure..."

He looked down at his fist and saw that he had apparently broken his fist and he sighed. "Computer. End log. He said loudly and clearly as he headed down to sickbay.

I had quite a few issues going on but things are finally better.

Requesting Dranik be reactivated. The lovable Hirogen would love to come back to any ship/station that requires a security officer.
