History
Ahren was born on the planet Bajor to freedom-fighter parents who sought to help overthrow Cardassian oppression. His parents were killed when he was very young, and he was sent to live with his cousins on an asteroid mining station where the primary form of entertainment is skimmer racing.
Ahren excelled at racing, becoming something of a sensation as a teenager and being named skimmer champion several times. A visiting Starfleet officer observed Ahren's talent and suggested that the young man take his skills to Starfleet in the form of piloting fighter craft.
Ahren sought guidance from Bajoran elders and the Prophets and felt that his destiny was to leave his asteroid home and seek more distant stars. He joined Starfleet and quickly rose through the ranks with his undeniable piloting skills.
Ahren was assigned as squadron commander of the Lightning Lancers, despite the squadron's proximity to major Cardassian presence. The Bajoran pilot convinced his superiors that he is disciplined enough to prevent any prejudice against the Cardassians from clouding his judgment.
Notes of Interest
Ahren married young on the asteroid station, and his wife declined to go with him when he joined Starfleet. She asked for a divorce, and Ahren gave it quietly. He speaks very little about the situation.
