Dima Emmari

He is 6'2" and sturdily built. He has large features, thick eyebrows, and thick greying hair. His voice is somewhat gravelly and he smiles easily.

Emmari's faith is true and now that the Occupation is over, takes his role as spiritual leader seriously. He's somewhat progressive in that he's sympathetic to the way Bajoran culture is changing now that they can move freely about the galaxy.

He speaks well and is usually agreeable and even-keeled. However, if pressed he will lose his temper and some of the veneer of respectability and station will crack.

Dima Emmari was born very early in the annexation of Bajor by the Cardassians and became a novice monk as soon as he was old enough. In his twenties he joined the Resistance. His position as a monk provided him some privilege and cover. He, like many others, did not survive the occupation without scars or blood-stained hands.

When the occupation ended in 2369, when he was in his 40s, Emmari was elevated to Vedek. His role in the Resistance was a poorly kept secret and in fact earned him some esteem. He was vocally critical of the Federation at first but has tempered his objections in recent years for political reasons.

Well guarded secret: he is the brother of Tallorin Nox, the Nyberrite Colonel.
