T'bak

T'bak was a Garidian revolutionary who believed the legend of the Fifth Scroll, wishing to change Garidian society. With Lucana and Avakar they fled Garid on a scoutship across the Neutral Zone and into Federation space. T'bak intended to locate the Vulcan archeologist Shanok who was known to make research on the Lawgiver's Followers.

In M'kyru sector their ship was apprehended by the Warbird Asiram, commanded by Avakar's mother, Pentara.

The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) attempted to intervene and the fugitives were beamed on board.
 * There are several outcomes of this encounter, depending on the actions by the player. It is possible to attack and destroy the Asiram or avoid the conflict in which case the scoutship will be self-destruct to avoid capture. In this case, after returning from the Mertens Orbital Research Station, Picard receives a distress call from their capsules and rescues them.

In the Conference Lounge, Picard talked with the three revolutionists and T'bak explained to him the story of the Garidian civilization and the story of the Fifth Scroll who would change their planet's history. Picard consented to find Shanok.
