In late 2152, Shran was commanding ground forces deployed to Weytahn, a planetoid strategically located between Andorian and Vulcan space (referred to by the Vulcans as Paan Mokar). With T'Pol having been wounded taking a shot for Sopek, Shran angrily told the Vulcan captain that it should've been him who was shot. His information proved crucial in releasing the Enterprise crewmen, and Shran also helped avoid a fire-fight with a commando squad from the Vulcan starship Ni'Var by shooting Traeg, a Coridan rebel who was about to fire on Vulcan captain Sopek. Shran, claiming that he had "lost sleep" over his debt to Archer, wanted to arrange the Captain's freedom as payment of that debt. When a shuttlepod from Enterprise carrying Archer and T'Pol was shot down by the rebels, Shran contacted the security team sent to extract them and provided assistance. Later that year, Shran was assigned to an Andorian covert ops unit supporting an uprising on Coridan, a world allied with Vulcan. As he departed, Shran said he was in Archer's debt. As a gesture of peace, Archer gave Shran detailed sensor readings and images of the facility and allowed him to leave freely. In the ensuing firefight, Archer and Shran accidentally uncovered a passage into an advanced listening post – the Andorians had been right all along. His prisoners managed to stage an escape with support from security officers from Enterprise NX-01. T'Pol's presence with the Humans only amplified Shran's suspicions, and Shran interrogated and tortured Archer for information but learned nothing of use. Shran, believing the Humans to be collaborating with the Vulcans against them, imprisoned Archer, along with Trip Tucker and T'Pol, who were accompanying him. During this third raid, Captain Archer accidentally stumbled into the confrontation while on a courtesy visit to the monastery.

The Andorians had mounted two previous raids and found no conclusive evidence but remained convinced that the sensor array was there. The Andorians had for a long time accused the Vulcans of hiding a clandestine long range sensor array in the monastery for illegal surveillance of Andorian territories. In June of 2151, Shran led an Andorian commando team which raided the Vulcan monastery at P'Jem. In 2142, Shran was promoted to commander of the warship Kumari. As a result, Shran wound up with third-degree burns over half his body. When Shran was a boy, he stumbled into a large den of ice-bores. His older brother joined while Shran was still in school and was assigned to a forward surveillance unit. Several members of his family joined the Imperial Guard.
