Lael was born two minutes before her twin brother Kellan on Stardate 236610.24 to Adelynn Rosek in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedar_Springs,_Michigan Cedar Springs, Michigan]. She never met her father and, due to her mother's silence, knew very little about him. From a young age, Lael showed a talent for mathematics and science, her curious nature leading her to a passion for taking things apart to see how they worked. She spent much of her younger years in fields, studying the local wildlife, even to the point of keeping a nature journal. This love of nature extended to the stars. Lael would often spend summer nights with her brother in her backyard studying them through a telescope. She would visit the nearby [http://www.muskegoncc.edu/mathphysical-sciences/carr-fles-planetarium/ Carr-Fles Planetarium] whenever she could. | Lael was born two minutes before her twin brother Kellan on Stardate 236610.24 to Adelynn Rosek in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedar_Springs,_Michigan Cedar Springs, Michigan].

By age 12, Lael's confidence blossomed and she joined her school's Student Leadership Club (SLC). Her passion for active pursuits led her to join her school's cross country team in 6th grade. Her best friend was a boy named Nicholas Swett, who she remained close with throughout elementary and middle school. He was her first kiss at the tender age of seven. She’d dropped her sandwich at lunch wrestling with a boy named Blake Thomas for pulling her hair. She’d cried at first until Nicholas presented her with half of his and she'd pecked him on the lips to thank him. | By age 12, Lael's confidence blossomed and she joined her school's Student Leadership Club (SLC).

One place, in particular, inspired many adventures: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackinac_Island Mackinac Island], north of Muskegon, Michigan. She, her twin brother, and their friends would swim and explore the shores of the little island. On rare occasions, when her mother was planetside, they'd enjoy meals at the Mission Point Resort restaurant. Heaters would be set up on the outside patio to counteract the cold breezes coming in from the lake and the three would enjoy delicious mugs of rich hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmellows. | ||
One summer, Lael put her building skills to use and constructed a boat, ''The Raven'', for her and Kellan to take out on Lake Michigan. Having read about old Earth maritime traditions, she insisted on christening her new craft. Unable to obtain champagne on her own, she snuck into her Aunt's cabinet and retrieved a very expensive bottle. When her Aunt found out, she was furious. Lael spent the next month raking out the horse stalls to pay it back. <ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-chintoka/xQfAs3pLlkg/MeVQARU5AwAJ He Who Is Faithful In A Very Little Thing]</ref> | |||

As she grew older, she sought more adventurous pursuits, chief among them sailing, cliff-diving, water skiing, rock climbing, and swimming in local ponds and lakes. When she wasn't hanging out with friends, she spent summers on her Uncle's farm doing chores and helping to care for the animals. She became skilled at riding horses and participated in several riding competitions as a young teen, winning second place in her first and second competitions and first place in her third competition. She also participated in her town's cattle roping event the year she turned 13. Animals became a passion for her and that same year, Lael joined her school's Future Farmers of Earth (FFE) club. At the Kent County Fair, she was awarded the Division 1 (grades 7-8) Agriscience Fair Award and also took home the second place award for Outstanding Junior. Outside of her agricultural science interests, she loved sports and joined her school's girls basketball team as a starting power forward. Her athletic talent helped her lead her team to the State Championships, where they unfortunately lost by three points.

She attended hers with "the hottest guy in her class" as her date. Her mother bought her a dress that made her look "like a walking marshmallow", but at the last minute, Lael went to the mall and purchased something "more sensible". <ref>[Link A Favor]</ref>--> | ||

As a senior, she developed a brash streak and used her exceptional intellect and talent in mathematics to hustle billiards games. With a fake ID supplied by her friend Aiden, she entered bars and earned herself a number of enemies. On one occasion, her competition found her out and was threatening bodily harm until the bar owner stepped in. She was elected Class President and nominated for Homecoming Queen and lost by only three votes. She graduated Magna Cum Laude and was chosen as valedictorian of her high school class. | |||
The idea of Starfleet had fascinated her since she attended a camp there at age 14. She spent most of her adolescence dreaming of a career as a Starfleet Officer. Prior to her high school graduation, she took the Entrance Exam.

During her first year, Lael did well academically, but the holovideos and graphic descriptions of torture caused nightmares and PTSD to the point that she very nearly developed a split personality. As a result, she was dropped from the Command track, and ordered to undergo mandatory medical check-ups and weekly counseling. Lael almost quit the Academy to go in search of her biological father, but her twin convinced her to pursue her true passion: fixing and build things. | During her first year, Lael did well academically, but the holovideos and graphic descriptions of torture caused nightmares and PTSD to the point that she very nearly developed a split personality.

She did well in most of her classes, but the most memorable for her was her Engineering class during her first semester. The instructor for that class preferred teaching through experiences and she enjoyed the challenge immensely. While most in her class complained about his unconventional teaching style, she came to respect him for it. Seeing how the simulations he threw out barely fazed her, he made it a personal mission to come up with a scenario even she couldn't solve. In the end, he wrote a letter of recommendation that secured Lael's place on the {{USS|Victory}} following her graduation. <ref> [https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-chintoka/jVDg9EQdgh8/QgXzqToyBAAJ System Reboot]</ref> | ||
At the end of her second year, Lael experienced disappointment when her first serious relationship of two years with girlfriend Ivina Genestra ended, albeit by mutual agreement. Though there was an attraction between them, they didn't feel anything for one another beyond friendship. Heartbroken, Lael went rock climbing with her friends that summer to get her mind off the break-up. However, due to her distraction and the foolish choices made by her climbing partner, she fell, resulting in a severe spinal injury that paralyzed her. She was told she'd never walk again. | |||

About a month following the accident, she was contacted by Doctor Gibbons. He was experimenting with the use of nanotechnology to treat otherwise untreatable spinal conditions. The procedure was highly controversial and hadn't yet been approved for Humanoid testing. Despite the risks, Lael agreed to be the first Humanoid subject to receive the procedure. Following the procedure, Lael completed extensive physical therapy to regain her mobility. It was during this time that she met {{n|Elina Kincade}}, who supervised her care and therapy. Through Elina, Lael also became friends with {{n|Rebecca Hollendale}} and with {{n|Dassa Alexander}}, one of Elina's students and an aspiring Starfleet medical officer. Prior to the beginning of her third year, Lael had an intimate liaison with Dassa, leaving the two permanently connected via an unintentionally-formed psionic bond. | About a month following the accident, she was contacted by Doctor Gibbons.

The energy they expended in their efforts took a severe toll on them both and they barely returned to the ''Za'' in time to receive the cure the Medical team had synthesized. | ||

When she, [[Chythar Skyfire|Chythar]], and [[Alex Blair|Alex]] beamed down to New Macau, the [[Antor II]] capital, they were shocked at the devastation they found. When they beamed aboard the ''Veritas'', they checked in with Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] where they learned that rifts in space had caused disastrous earthquakes that had damaged many of the planet's dome environments and made them uninhabitable on top of leaving many people dead. | Lael transferred to the {{USS|Veritas}} on Stardate 239407.07 after the decommissioning of the {{USS|Za}}.

The ''Astraeus'' crew was provided a list of names whom the Bajoran government claimed had been missing since the Occupation of Bajor. The Bajoran government asserted that these individuals had been taken and had not been returned to their homes following the war. The ''Astraeus'' crew would be part of the investigation and the talks in seeing these individuals returned. As part of their arrival at Deep Space Nine in orbit of Bajor, they'd be taking on new personnel and during the briefing, Captain [[Mei'konda]] tasked her with seeing to the crew transfers. <ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-astraeus/TIY9E59bo-k/-rlSZnKsCwAJ| The Proof Is In The Records, Part I]</ref> | ||

Some of the senior staff had their suspicions regarding its origin, but Captain [[Mei'konda]] had it beamed aboard for careful examination by the Engineering, Science, and Security departments.

Lael received her transfer orders for the {{USS|Atlantis}} shortly after the conclusion of its recent mission. The crew was in the process of transferring to their new ship, the {{USS|Chin'toka}} where they would serve while the {{USS|Atlantis}} underwent repairs and upgrades. Not long after her arrival, she and other members of the {{USS|Atlantis}} crew attended an awards ceremony where Commander [[Jarred Thoran]] was promoted to the rank of Captain. However, he collapsed suddenly in the midst of the ceremony and passed not soon after. | |||

Despite the sudden loss of her captain, a man she had come to highly respect, Lael was pleased to again be working with Captain [[Mei'konda|Mei'konda]]. Following its launch, the Chin'toka was ordered to resume the Atlantis's previous edict to explore the Par'tha Expanse. {{Frame|Rosek_LtCmdrRedBkgd.png|150px|CAPTION='''Lael aboard the {{USS|Chin'toka}} (2398).'''|FLOAT=right}}The crew of the Chin'toka was invited to a diplomatic dinner in their honor by Valcarian Grand Admiral Lorrein Dels’an. However, upon their arrival, they discover that the Grand Admiral had an ulterior motive. Dels'an had reason to believe the life of her newly appointed aide, [[Dehan Strin]], was in danger and she wanted the crew's assistance in protecting him as well as to help prevent a civil war. While the away teams worked on the surface, Lael remained aboard with Lieutenant Commander [[Serala]] and Ensign [[Varik Tal'Aura]] to keep an eye on the situation from orbit. The ship was later attacked by a Valcarian cruiser and was forced to defend itself. They are able to successfully disable their attacker with the Chin'toka sustaining only minimal damage. Having thwarted the assassination attempt on the Grand Admiral's life, the away teams returned to the ship and left Dels'an to deal with the fallout as she saw fit. | |||
