he excelled in his studies. He was awarded the Dak'Na - a ceremonial
Efrosian Crystal Dagger, for excellence.
Academy: S'svaan entered the
Academy at a relatively older age, due to his Warrior/Priest training
on Efros. His training and age helped him excel in his studies, and
he was often asked to tutor less advanced students. During his
training, it was discovered that S'svaan possessed a talent for
psychology and was given the chance to enter training as a ship's
Counsellor, but declined. He also enjoyed the occasional opportunity
to pilot a shuttle. Graduated in 2380 with High Honors.

Planetary Description
The name Efros means Ice in the Efrosian tongue. The planet is cold,
harsh world that is locked in a permanent ice age. Few native plants
or animals live on Efros, as the climate makes it nearly impossible
for anything to survive there. However, the abundance of most
minerals makes this planet extremely valuable nonetheless.The planet
is only barely Class M. The first survey, in fact, identified it as a
class L world.
Racial Description There has been little contact between the Efrosian
race and most other races. Except for a very few, who seem to enjoy
the company of other races, most Efrosian's seem happy to live out
their lives on their own planet. It seems hard to believe that the
Efrosian's could have originally evolved on Efros, and in fact there
is some evidence that they did not. It is suspected that this planet
was yet another seeded by the Preservers. Physically Efrosians tend
to be shorter and stockier than humans, averaging about 1.5 meters
and 70 kilograms. their skin and hair tend to be paler than the human
norm and their eyes have a second faceted cornea that protects their
eyes from their planets harsh winds. The most striking feature about
the Efrosian's is the sculpted look of their facial features. This
feature is thought to be due to exposure to the cold and harsh winds
on Efros. Primitive Efrosians wrapped their bodies in warm furs, but
neglected such protection for their faces. As a result the wind
scorched their faces and later generations developed thick layers of
fatty deposits beneath their facial areas. Thus were their faces
protected from the harsh, cold winds, and the feature has become an
inherited racial trait. Another distinguishing mark of Efrosian
physiology is the difference in coloration between the sexes.
Efrosian males seem to have fair hair and complexions - some almost
look like albinos. On the other hand, Efrosian females are usually
raven-haired. Studies have not yet indicated if this is the result of
selective breeding early in Efrosian history or is it is some other
natural phenomenon. It is interesting to note that if a female is
born with fair hair or a male with raven hair, that it is considered
a shame to the family and most people assume that the girl is a boy
and visa versa.
Efrosians:
While the surface of their planet was encompassed by ice, the
Efrosians' technological and social development was minimal.
They remained in close knit tribes, and subsisted on animals that
they cold bring down with stone knives and spears, but once the
massive glaciers began to break, both technology and unity swiftly
developed. The most esteemed members of the tribes were
warrior-priests, who were respected not only for their prowess as
warriors, but also for their abilities as great healers. The
warrior-priests ruled Efros as a religious oligarchy.
Technological development did not suffer (as it often has under
religious leadership elsewhere in the galaxy), but actually increased
due to the priests belief that technology and invention would make
their lives better, and preserve and further what was so precious to
the race. As the climate warmed somewhat, the Efrosians
descovered previously hidden energy and mineral resources that
boosted their technological prgress. By the time the Federation
(Vulcan-crewed USS Surak) discovered them, the Efrosians had
developed radio telescopes and atomic power. The Efrosians were
overjoyed to learn that there was an abundance of intelligent life in
the universe, both unlike and like themselves. They accepted
the Federation's offer of friendship, and joined the UFP soon
afterward.
Notes
The planet is a cold, harsh world that only in the last thousand
years emerged from a mellenia-long ice age. Few native animals live
on Efros, as the climate makes it extremely difficult for plants to
thrive. However, the abundance of metal on the planet makes it
valuable nonetheless. There is some evidence suggesting that
the race did not originally evolve on Efros. Perhaps the
Efrosians are yet another of the races that the Preservers seeded
throughut the galaxy.
Efrosian males all seem to have fair hair and complexiaon-some almost
lood like albinos. On the other hand, Efrosian females are
usually raven-haired. Studied have not yet indicated if this is
the result of selected breeding early in Efrosian history or if it is
some natural phenomenon. It is interesting to note that giving
birth to a boy with dark hair brings shame upon a family. To
most people, such a male's coloring brands him as a
female.
Although not widely known throughout the Federation, many Efrosians
live and work as teachers and philosophers on other worlds as part of
cultural exchanges. Efrosians serve in starfleet as well,
especially many of the lower grade warrior priests. Navigation, Helm
and Medicine are their most popular choices in Star Fleet. The
warrior-priests perform excellently in medicine because of their
innate, almost psychic ability to intuitively diagnose a patient's
problem and treat them with the minimal amount of medicine or
equipment.
They are also very adept as navigators and helmsmen due to their
highly developed sense of direction. They seem to have
developed this survival mechanism to deal with their worlds blinding,
disorienting snowstorms. They instinctively know correct
courses and can make adjustments to stay on course even without the
aid of a computer. Efrosians who do not choose to join Star
Fleet are often pressured to join the Merchant Acadamy.
The Efrosian culture maintains a strict secrecy about their
religion. All that is known about the faith is that it is very
esoteric and mystical. They are extremely open and friendly
about every other aspect of their culture, but they guard their
religion jelously claiming that it was their religion that helped
them survive the ravages of the ice age, and they refuse to even
share is principles with others. Most Federation races
understand and respect this need for such privacy, and the Efrosians
have ignored Tellerite speculation about "child-sacrifice"
and "ritual murder".
The Federation President in the year 2293 was of Efrosian origin.
