Sarah Talens

Sarah Quigley Talens is currently a science officer on board the USS Discovery-C.

She has short, cropped dirty-blonde hair (ala Katee Sackhoff in the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica) and of petite frame. She is infamous for her moody nature, acerbic wit and loud, foul mouth, which has seen her get into trouble on more than a few occasions. She is a close friend to Lt Raine Vedra (whom she often fondly refers to as Big Guy and Shrek), though she would rather be flogged in public than ever admit to this. She also once had a huge crush on LtCmdr Valdivia, whose brilliant mind she has often described as a big turn-on.

On stardate 239007.26, following an accident in the lab, her right leg was crushed by falling heavy equipment and had to be amputated below the knee to keep her from hemorrhaging to death. She refused an artificial limb transplant and instead, had a wooden (natural maple, of course) peg replace her missing leg.
