Android officer assembled by Dr. Moong, a scientist noted for copying the work of famous android designer Dr. Soong. ("Prophecy Fulfilled" [BAN]) Carn did not know it, but he was built by Dr. Moong under the auspices of the Dominion and sent to spy on the Banshee, which, had it not been inducted into Section 31, would have led the largest Federation battle group during the war. But while on the ship, still under construction at the time, he suffered an electrical malfunction that caused him to believe he was a member of the crew. ("A Day In The Life Of Carn". [BAN]). Carn is just one of many androids that Moong produced, all of them having the same obsession with music from Earth's 1970's period. ("The Truth Is Out There, Part One" [BAN]). Carn also includes various personality algorithms, including normal Benign Android mode, Ghetto Ebonics mode and Burnt Out Surfer mode. ("A Day In the Life Of Carn" [BAN]). Carn is also designed as a walking storage and survival unit. His nose can be pulled off and used as a compass, his biceps contain cups for protein milkshakes he dispenses from his pinky finger and other capabilities he claims are best left unsaid. ("The Eclair Witch Project" [BAN]). Carn was assigned to the Banshee yet somehow he was never given a post. This only served to confuse the android, who often times just sat on the bridge doing nothing; he wasn't even given quarters of his own. ("A Day In the Life Of Carn" [BAN]). Carn has proven himself to be extremely sturdy, even surviving a direct lightning strike on several occasions. ("Natural Disaster" [BAN]). Unfortunately Carn was literally torn to pieces during the mass evacuation of the Banshee after several alien creatures broke free and began snacking on the crew. He was later reactivated and put back together. ("Things That Go Bump In The Night" [BAN]). When the Banshee was infected by a computer virus of Cardassian origin, Carn was the sole member of the crew that wasn't incapacitated and single-handedly saved the crew from being captured. ("Shatterframe" [BAN]) Shortly thereafter, Carn was in attendance of the Annual Androids Convention of 2375. En route back home, his runabout crashed and he was forced to take refuge on a planet of primitive tribesmen. The tribesmen, though, believed Carn to be a god and refused to let him leave. It took Commander Charlotte Burns and a phaser rifle to get him home. ("Prophecy Fulfilled" [BAN]). In 2373, Federation Times reporter Paul Hoerbelt attempted to use a photograph of Carn at the android convention to prove to his editor that there was good reason for him to continue investigating the Banshee's disappearance. The editor didn't buy it and Hoerbelt was fired. ("The Truth Is Out There, Part One" [BAN]). After inquiring to the absence of his quarters, the truth behind Carn's past was revealed after Captain Vorezze did research on his creator. Carn was temporarily incarcerated but escaped and retrieved the surveillance video that proved his innocence. ("A Day In The Life Of Carn" [BAN]).
