Jonathan and Charlena | Jonathan and Charlena had a short fling filled with as much fun and nature as the holodeck allows. They first began their relationship in the Brew Continuum and unfortunately this relationship was not particularly long lasting as when Charlena returned home it fizzled out overtime but the pair remain friends. | ||

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. | 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.

'''Time away from Starfleet.''' | |||
Charlena took some time out of Starfleet between the start of 2399 and the end of 2400. During this time she returned to Risa and worked on setting up and establishing a robotics school at home. This was her pride and joy and was met with many hurdles during her time away in getting everything together and in place to be able to run effectively without her. It hard been hard for her to return home in this setting and she was glad that she could lean on her friend and her brother to get through it all. With their support she had been able to convince teachers who had never seen her excel that she was trained enough to set this up and get people invested in its progress for the planet long term. When everything was finally in place she made her return to Starfleet and back to Amity Outpost. | |||

Her father hasn't changed his attitude towards her however, when at the age of 17 Charlena started to think about joining the Academy, much to her brothers enthusiasm, she was met with opposition from her father. Charlena's father wanted her to continue in hospitality and be able to take the hotel on from him when he could no longer run it. Starfleet was no in his plans for her and since the business had been in the family for many generations he gave her the choice of the Academy or the family. Charlena with her brothers support, well a much support as a 4 year old could give, decided that the Academy was the best way froward for her. Her parents were quick to cut her out after that decision, and discovering her brother had fuelled her ideas and convinced her to apply they didn't hesitate to do the same to him. Thankfully Charlena's friend George was there for them when that happened helping them to be able to move forward and strive towards what Oli and | Her father hasn't changed his attitude towards her however, when at the age of 17 Charlena started to think about joining the Academy, much to her brothers enthusiasm, she was met with opposition from her father.

Charlena and her brother are so close that it made Charlena question joining the academy as she didn't want to leave him when she was the one who maintained the gadgets she had made for him. She also didn't want to leave him as she was not ready for the separation from him when he was the only completely steady family she had. She had become his career once her parents had disowned them both and only felt comfortable to leave him once he had established a strong bond with a friend that allowed her to know he'd be cared for both by someone senior in George but also in friendship with people his own age. | Charlena and her brother are so close that it made Charlena question joining the academy as she didn't want to leave him when she was the one who maintained the gadgets she had made for him.

Oliver's condition and his young age in telling Charlena to go for Starfleet was actually a huge factor as she wanted him to see that he could do whatever he aimed for because if she could then so could he. | ||

Charlena began this mission feeling at ease. The beginning of the mission steamed on her ability to modify the ship to cope with the travelling planet. She was not only able to do this but after Lt Ukinix went on the away team to the planet she was able to monitor this from a distance whilst beginning the process of fixing the basically destroyed nacelle 3. Making some tough decisions she was able to get that process moving along rather swiftly before she had to leave it to the rest of the team and manually operate the changes to her modifications the computer had been doing to allow for distribution of power to other places that needed it to ensure the safe return of the away teams.

Charlena was her most confident during this mission, she attempted to take on a Klingon by herself, unsuccessfully, she then was selected to be on the away team, donning her best pirate disguise, which apparently wasn't the most successful they extracted information in their smaller sub groups from those around them. Charlena worked with Jansen to obtain information on where the Marths could be found and then they regrouped returning to the Veritas. From their Charlena was down in engineering, when pirates boarded the the ship Charlena was taken by surprise and whilst her and Wil managed to restrain 3 of them one took BAXTER back to their Ship. From their Charlena became determined to get BAXTER back and with Wils clear thinking they developed a plan to help them lock into the ship in the nebula and Charlena went down to deck 9 to modify the deflector to make it happen. Charlena succeeded in this which lead to the successful capture of the pirates and saving of BAXTER, along with the rest of the away team. | Charlena was her most confident during this mission, she attempted to take on a Klingon by herself, unsuccessfully, she then was selected to be on the away team, donning her best pirate disguise, which apparently wasn't the most successful they extracted information in their smaller sub groups from those around them.

*''' Sixth Mission - Heartbeat''': | |||
Charlena ended up leading an away team to tackle the issue of having a Tholian station drift over the border, not only did she manage to get the team to dismantle the engineering modifications that had occurred in the station she was able to do this and get the station back over the border with a Tholian Sympathiser working against them. It was stressful but a huge success. | |||
*''' Seventh Mission - Wandering Star''': | |||
Charlena was left to run engineering as away teams were sent down to an asteroid after a distress call. For the first time in a while Charlena felt out of her depth as she signed off on decisions she wasn't entirely sure of such as sending BAXTER through a torpedo tube to the asteroid when they could no longer use transporters. Charlena proceeded to have a small mental breakdown when BAXTER was unable to communicate with her and the ship fearing she had lost him to the hostile AI. BAXTER did however return and Charlena was able to keep the ship stable despite the issues due to being so close to the asteroid and the attacks from the AI before the help of Ensign Wong ensured their safety with his AI's negotiation skills and communication. | |||
