If there's one thing that everyone in Star Trek Online seems to agree on, it's that they all hate the character of Neelix from Star Trek: Voyager. I always felt that was sort of unfair, but there you go. When the game opened up the Talaxian species as available to use as captains for lifetime subscribers, I knew that sooner or later, I'd make one. And I wanted to make a statement that even a Talaxian can be a badass. Fralex is my attempt to show that not all Talaxians are "nice".

Gender: Male
Species: Talaxian
Affiliation: Klingon Empire
Personality
There is a perception that all Talaxians are happy, slightly-naive, humorous, and comfortable in life's little pleasures. This is reinforced by the importance of Neelix and his colony of Talaxians. What most people tend to forget is that the Talaxians also fought a war back in the 2340's-50's, and that wars are not happy, naive, or funny or comfortable. Fralex is not old enough to have fought in that war, but he is old enough to to remember his father, who had-and Fralex grew up to be very similar in temperment. This has made Fralex a very different Talaxian than the perceived norm: he's not naive, he's not humorous, and he's willing to spend his life in a Spartan-like existence. Yet, living this way does make him happy, in its own way.
He hasn't lost all of the traits that mark his people, however. He feels like a father figure to the younger Klingons under his command, admiring their passion for life, but instilling in them the discipline that he feels has served him well in life. He's not above kicking the snot out of upstarts, though-he has recognized that being immersed in a Klingon culture means he has to prove himself to them, every day. He's come to see that the way to their hearts is through the teachings of Kahless, and reminds them that "nothing is more honorable than victory". Fralex continues to prove that, by this standard, he's one of the more honorable individuals in the Empire today.
