Delix got to know the Q a bit and felt real empathy toward how isolating its life had been. On another mission Delix had the opportunity to interact with the Q as it was relegated to being human, but then got its powers back. They had a fascinating cultural practice, at least to Delix, of monogamy and single-offspring to help combat overpopulation on the planet. During the course of its mission he proved his mettle and was able to lead several scientific expeditions, including first contact with the Malians, who were budding and just figuring out space exploration, but had made a grave miscalculation that would have destroyed their first ship and crew and set them back many decades. With his outstanding record at the academy, Delix was offered a prestigious chance to accompany the Enterprise NSC-1701-D on its maiden voyage as an engineer. He graduated Starfleet Academy and was commissioned as a Lieutenant Junior Grade. He always had a theory for every situation. He even stayed an additional year to achieve his doctorate in Physics with a focus on Warp Field Dynamics as relates to Quantum Mechanics. At the academy, Delix excelled in science and engineering, always pushing machines to their operational limits and trying to find ways to improve upon them. Though this he came to value the maxim "Judge a man by his questions, not by his answers".Īfter having mastered all he could on his homeworld, Delix's curiosity drove him to join Starfleet, where he could recieve further training and experience with all the cutting edge technology. However his family never discouraged him, seeing a great mind at work, learning and growing through the experimentation process. More often than not, this led to a total failure, that if it didn't blow up in his face, it still never worked again. He was constantly taking things apart to figure out how they work and then attempting to improve upon them as he put them back together. Though Denobulans value curiosity, Delix took this to an extreme. He is a Denobulan born on his homeworld to a large family, as is customary. Delix is an experienced officer aboard the starship.
