A member of the aggressive warrior race known as the Lyrans. He was born on board a Lyran starship in battle for the Mirak homeworld in 2226 to a mother who had refused to miss out of the fighting due to her pregnancy. Unfortunately Longnail’s mother wenr into labour during the battle itself, resulting in a litter of 4 of which Longnail was the largest and strongest. Excelling above his peers he entered the Lyran Military Academy and graduated with honours in 2252.
He was first assigned to the then Lyran flagship, the Untouchable where he served as ESG maintenance officer and quickly rose through the ranks until he attained the rank of first officer in 2256. His first command a light cruiser. This shows the esteem with which he was held by Lyran High Command at the time, as most new Lyran captains only receive frigates. Longnail is considered to be a leader amongst his people, and has coordinated several large scale attacks against Federation and Hydran interests.
Note: It is believed by some Federation scientists however that Captain Longnail may not be all that he appears to be. It appears as though he is actually a focal point for the very existance of the Dynaverse leading some to warn that there may be more to him than just a Lyran captain.
