Thabo Xhakaza

Thabo Xhakaza is a bright and promising young officer who commands the USS Constantinople. His ascension to captaincy has been rapid, a necessity of the disastrous effects of Frontier Day. Xhakaza was the XO of a ship that suffered heavy losses, including the seasoned captain he was expected to learn under. In the aftermath, he has assumed leadership of the survivors and commands them aboard the Constantinople.

Despite his talents and rapid ascension through the ranks, Commander Xhakaza is humble, kind, and thoughtful. He epitomises the spirit of Starfleet, eager for missions of exploration and spreading the Federation’s values. He knows he has not yet been truly tested, and that he is in his position through both luck and tragedy. Nevertheless, he has helped to shape the young crew of the Constantinople in the aftermath of crisis, pulling them together to face the future.

Everything a young captain should be, Xhakaza is either easily liked for his good nature and strong moral compass, or irritatingly successful and painfully sincere.
