Toya Todoroki

Disclaimer
This following character is an adaption of the character Toya Todoroki, designed and created by Kohei Horikoshi.

Appearance
Touya is a fairly tall, pale young man of a slim, somewhat-lanky build. He has longish red spiky looking hair with a white patch on his left side that formed later in his life due to an extreme level of stress being put upon his body. that spikes upward around his head, hanging low over his eyes, which are thin, turquoise in colour, and heavily lidded. The colour of his eyes is striking compared to his fair skin colour and hair colour. On the right side of his face and on some portions of the rest of his body he has scars from an explosion. On both ears, Toya has one silver ear cuff over the cartilage of them. And can be found wearing comfortable clothes when not on duty, his favorite Jacket to wear is one made of leather.

Personality
He is a stoic, aloof, confident and focused individual. Toya shows little emotion until it becomes too much for him to handle and he can lash out on accident if he is overly stressed or completely dies emotionally. This is due to his negative upbringing and troubled family life from his father. He is protective of those he cares for deeply, though there aren’t many who have been able to achieve this status with Toya other than his siblings, mother and very few of his co-workers.

As he was growing up Toya was taught not to allow his emotions to overpower him, as he has grown in age this ideal has stuck with the male. When he loses the usual control he has over his feelings Toya can become a mere shell running on autopilot. If he doesn’t allow for this state to occur then Toya can lash out with the overwhelming feelings he had been enduring.

From the explosion he had been a victim to Toya struggles with sudden noises in the loud variety. As a sort of trigger for the time he was severely injured, not only was he physically scarred but mentally as well.

Ambitions
To prove he is still worth being acknowledged by his father, who is a commander. Toya wishes to prove Enji wrong, to show that he is not just a failed attempt for a strong child.

Morals
Toya was raised to follow his orders and to uphold the logic followed by Vulcans. He is sure to follow the rules and regulations in place for members of Starfleet as closely as he can at all times.

History
Toya was born on Vulcan in 2354, the oldest of four children. His father had been attempting to “create” a child who had the telepathic abilities of a Vulcan and Betazoid, unfortunately, Toya was not the one he was hoping for, as he was born with more dominant Vulcan genes. His early years were simple, thankfully he had not shown any indication of being telepathically gifted yet.

Due to being the firstborn in the family, Toya spent a lot of time moving between Enji’s assignments. The first of which was an Excelsior-class vessel, it was during this time he started to show an interest in Starfleet and the engineering of the ship. Whenever his father was on duty, Toya would fill his time going through the required texts and work from the Vulcan Science Academy and Starfleet, expanding his knowledge each day to explore new possibilities.

Whenever his father was home, Toya had to watch as Shoto was subjected to what would appear as inhumane treatment, being pushed or pressured into doing tasks his Father demanded. Forcing his son to explore his telepathic limits and to gain better control of his emotions. Over time he began to teach Shoto how to suppress his emotions, helping him to close off from the pain their father was inflicting. One day, while his father was away, their Mother snapped, unable to take the strain and stress that Enji had been putting on her and the family. This caused an accident where she ended up spraying a corrosive ice-based chemical on Shoto’s face. This led to her being arrested and placed into a mental institute on Vulcan to try and restore her mental stability. Toya at the time did his best with the family’s emergency medical kit, preventing Shoto from being in extended pain.

At the age of 16, Toya applied to get into Starfleet Academy, partly to escape away from the pain in his household and to show his father he was just as good as Shoto even if he was not as skilled telepathically. With the events of his homelife and how their mother had been taken to a mental institute after Shoto was injured, Toya made a large effort to avoid contact with his father. Even going to the point of mentally blocking Enji as best he could. As time passed he cut more ties from his relations to Commander Enji, intentionally avoiding any form of contact with the father he’d grown to hate so much. Deciding to continue down the Engineering track, Toya took on as many courses as he could, spending the next five years in San Francisco, allowing him an extra year for his studies. When it came to additional or extracurricular clubs, he opted for joining his fellow engineering students in exploring the limits of warp theory in their debate team.

Finishing his course, Toya was positioned on Starbase 84, under Captain Toshinori Yagi. Although he was a junior engineering officer, he learnt a lot about the differences between working on a starship and a starbase. Instead of primarily working on a singular ship’s systems, he found himself working between many different ships. Although a lot of the work was nothing more than standard maintenance or upkeep. During his time here he explored the meanings of friendships with the other officers, finding the Captain to be a stickler for getting to know everyone who was serving under him, no matter their rank, even if they were “just an Ensign” like he was.

After spending four years on the Starbase he was promoted and transferred onto the USS Yukatone, a Cheyenne class vessel, that was being used to test new warp systems due to their quad nacelle design. Of course, it wasn’t the most advanced ship in the fleet but it offered him the chance to explore his theories about expanding the depths of warp speed. His duties mostly revolved around ensuring the experimental engines were working well and not causing any radiation leakages. Should any issues come up he would be in charge of working out the best course of action in restoring the damage.

Three years later, he was transferred off the USS Yukatone and onto the USS Aurora, a Galaxy-class vessel, assigned to exploring the far reaches of the Beta quadrant along with diplomatic envoys. This was the most advanced vessel he had served on to date, with a top warp speed of 9.98. He would be on this ship for the next 2 years, working his way up the engineering department until reaching the position of Assistant Chief Engineer. This meant his duties now expanded to covering for the Chief Engineer whenever he was on shore leave, running duty shifts alternate to the Chief and running experiments as ordered.
