{{Brief Bio
|NAME=Roshanara Rahman
|COLOR=Red
|RANK=Captain
|POST=Commanding Officer
|SPECIES=[[Kriosian]]
|GENDER=female [[empathic metamorph]]
|BIRTHMONTH=12
|BIRTHDATE=15
|BIRTHYEAR=2356
|BIRTHPLACE=Moselina IV
|BLURB=
Born away from the Kriosian homeworld, Roshanara's birth parents gave her up for adoption, and a human couple took her in, named her, and raised her back in Lahore, Earth. Often mistaken for a Trill due to her Kriosian spots, she joined Starfleet because of her interest in starship design, an interest that has not come without a cost as she was gravely injured early in her career from a major accident that required lengthy rehabilitation. She exhibits a dry and perhaps even cruel sense of humor. Previously a chief engineer, she employs a rather direct and assertive style of command and is working on her anger management.

When his younger brothers vessel went missing and was suspected destroyed, he vowed to do more with his life than to host tourists and compete in surfing competitions. The first time Antero strode onto the bridge of a starship those who knew him would have described him as a light hearted, fun loving guy who lived for thrill and never stopped moving. During shore leave he was the life of the party, during missions he poured everything he had into the helm of a starship, the more dangerous the better.

Wil wanted to join Starfleet from a young age, to be like his mother who was a Starfleet tactical officer.  He inherited his Betazoid grandfather's empathic abilities (which Wil keeps to himself), and even though he received counselling in his late teen years to cope with them, they can make him anxious at times.  Wil has a wicked, cheeky sense of humour, and likes to make light of most situations - which isn't always well accepted by others.

|BLURB=
Born and raised in Suraya Bay Charlena, named after her father, is used to the typical quiet serenity except for the one time a year where tourism spikes drastically for Lohlunat. It was during these celebrations and her upbringing around tourists that lead to her fascination as to what else was out there in the universe. Despite her typical averageness at school she put so much work and focus into engineering she past one of the top of her class and she couldn't be happier about it. She left with an engineering major with an extra minor in xenobiology. She was finally going to start the job she had dreamed of. And she was going to start on USS Veritas as an engineering officer working for the greater good.
