HISTORY
2300Lerit is born on Vulcan
2307At the age of seven, Lerit passes the Vulcan rite of manhood (Kahs'wan) in the desert

2322Lerit applies to Starfleet Academy, but his application is turned down.
2322Lerit, having succumbed to the emotional state of depression, turns away from Vulcan teaching and attempts to embrace and discover his emotional self, and takes up a position as third mate of a trade vessel, Bonaventure run by a Terran named Arthur Grayson. Lerit serves as an engineer of sorts, and also in a security capacity. His intellect making him a fast study, and his Vulcan strength and discipline making him an excellent body guard.
