View source for J'Ter

In life, J'Ter was Crown Prince of the Cagelands on [[Yyns]] in that planet's ancient past. His father, T'Rix was upset that J'Ter could not get along with his brother, T'Mak, but there was little the old man could do about it. T'Mak wanted to rule the Cagelands, something that could only occur if he took J'Ter out of the picture. J'Ter and his wife, P'Fer, led their army against T'Mak's in a huge battle fought on Wegan Field. J'Ter's forces won a decisive victory, and J'Ter killed his brother in single combat. 


Several millennia later, J'Ter's life force was reincarnated into [[Jaroch]]. In times when Jaroch experienced extreme pain or emotional distress, J'Ter's personality would take over Jaroch's body, usually leaving a trail of carnage in his wake. J'Ter disrupted Jaroch's graduation from Starfleet Academy, took out the entire ruling council of Hypos VII during the [[USS Secondprize]]'s mission there, and killed the future son-in-law of the [[Grand Leech]] of the [[Joegonots]]. This last event landed Jaroch, Commander [[Travis Dillon]], Ensign [[Emily Sullivan]] and Lieutenant [[Patricia Hawkins]] in a Joegonot dungeon and almost resulted in Captain [[Alexander Rydell]] being forced to marry the Grand Leech's daughter. The long-dead prince redeemed himself somewhat by allowing Jaroch to almost single-handedly take out most of the Grand Leech's Palace Guards. (''[[Star Traks 1]]'' [TRK]) 


J'Ter emerged to help Jaroch avoid being killed by the ship's computer, but he proved to be useless since he couldn't swim. (''[[Belch-O-Rama]]'' [TRK]) While stranded on planet [[Mandicor]], Jaroch briefly gained the ability to call forth his past lives at will. He used J'Ter to free Rydell from a door that had fallen on him. (''[[Star Traks 4]]'' [TRK]) J'Ter was one of the past lives screaming in Jaroch's mind for him to resolve his feelings for Patricia Hawkins. This mental turmoil drove Jaroch to visit Counselor ''[[Claire Webber]]'', who beat J'Ter into submission with an unrelenting bear hug. (''[[Family Counseling]]'' [TRK]) The overall problem proved to be great than Jaroch thought, and he was forced to return to Yyns for a [[Seratch]]. Upon his arrival, the reincarnation of T'Mak decided it was time to get revenge. T'Mak and J'Ter faced each other again in the Temple of Mi Clane, and, once again, J'Ter was the victor. T'Mak's host was taken to the Past Life Sorting Center for some serious counseling. (''[[Star Traks 6]]'' [TRK]) 


During his captaincy of the Secondprize, Jaroch took a six-month sabbatical on Yyns to learn to control his past lives. After completing this training, he was able to bring forth his past lives whenever he desired using certain meditative techniques. He was forced to do this to defeat the insane Travis Dillon. Dillon had managed to severely injure both Jaroch and Hawkins in single combat, but J'Ter was able to quite handily kick the stuffing out of Dillon. (''[[Please Hold For Oblivion]]'' [TRK])
