Facts, Quirks, and the Like

  • Addresses her colleagues and subordinates, with few exceptions, by their surnames, not by ranks or honorifics.
  • Has a huge laugh. Can be found easily in a crowded room, as long as there's something amusing.
  • Off-duty clothing tends to be understated, but greatly enjoys dressing up for special occasions.


Family

Partner
Noemi Teyla
Noemi is Zalea's partner. The two met in medical school at the University of Betazed, but weren't able to be align their professional lives until they served as doctors on the Starship Tirgatao in 2373. Noemi resigned from Starfleet at the rank of lieutenant to focus more on medicine rather than her career as an officer, but she has (whenever possible) served as a civilian physician on all of Zalea's ships and bases. Born in 2333 on Betazed.
Daughter
Fenna Solzano
Zalea and Noemi's elder child. Born to Zalea in 2364. Pursued a commission in Starfleet and currently serves at the rank of commander as first officer of the USS Yousafzai.
Son
San Teyla
Zalea and Noemi's younger child. Born to Noemi in 2366. Actor and artist, occasionally spends time with his family--and lucky they're all in one place, most of the time.




Active Duty History

Zalea has served aboard almost a dozen ships and installations during her time in Starfleet. The Dominion War and the shifting politics in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, as well as her own steady climb up the ranks, means that her service has been punctuated and interrupted. As a commanding officer, she seeks stability in a way she didn't have as a junior officer.
