	Family & Relationships

Family Members [Click to show/hide]

Melissa Hopper

• Relationship: Birth Mother
• Age: 64 years
• Retired FDC Diplomat, Oregon (Earth)

Melissa Hopper, born in Oregon but raised constantly on the move with her family, enjoyed travel and was drawn to space from a young age. Combined with an aptitude for languages and a parental influence towards law and politics, this interest led her to the Federation Diplomatic Corps - serving as a staffer for several years before becoming an Envoy at the Federation Embassy on Alpha Centauri IV. It was there she met her future wife, Ansyra, a terraforming expert and consultant on interplanetary projects.

After the two married, they relocated to Theta VII in search of a quieter life, and took over management of a hydroponic farming estate. With a little help from advanced Centauran medical technologies, they had two children together (Melissa carrying the elder sister, Robin, and Ansyra carrying the younger Kerilyn). The two have always joked about that fact that each sister seemed to take more after their *other* mother.

Ansyra Hopper

• Relationship: Mother
• Age: 90 years
• Retired Artist & Terraformer, Velestus

Originally from Velestus (Alpha Centauri IV), Ansyra spent much of her younger days as a professional artist before discovering terraforming later in life, springing from her long-term hobby: gardening. Her work centered around consulting on balancing aesthetic and biological considerations in world-planning initiatives. This work eventually led her to the Federation Embassy, where she joined an interplanetary team of consultants based out of Velestus - a world known for its skilled terraformers.

Eventually, she met Melissa Hopper, who worked as an Diplomatic Corps Envoy at the Embassy. The two would eventually marry and settle down together, choosing to move to the less-intense setting of Theta VII to start their family.

Ansyra's private Centauran name is Kalitikne.

Kerilyn "Keri" Hopper

• Relationship: Sister
• Age: 22 years
• Politics Student (Tellar Prime University) & FDC Intern, Theta VII

When Robin was six years old, her mothers decided they wanted to have a second child. At first outraged by their decision, Robin came around to it eventually - around the time Keri turned three. At that point, Robin decided she was cute enough to be accepted into the family. The two would feud again later, when Robin was in her teenage years, which Keri once described as "exceptionally stupid and awkward". Since then, the two have worked things out (mostly), with Robin attributing much of their improved relationship to the long time she's spent away from home while studying, citing the old adage that 'absence makes the heart grow fonder.'

Keri will soon complete her degree in Politics and History at Tellar Prime University.

Keri's private Centauran name is Zoirana.

Lynn Hopper

• Relationship: Grandmother (H)
• Age: 95 years
• Attorney/Legal Advocate, Minnesota (Earth)

A passionate legal advocate, specializing in interstellar law, Lynn was often called on to advise on matters of diplomacy and interstellar trade - though she herself never worked for the Federation Diplomatic Corps directly. While attending a conference regarding the Romulan Star Empire and the Federation's concerns regarding the Treaty of Algeron, she unexpectedly met Rick Hopper - a befulled young geologist who arrived a week early for a scientific conference. The two hit it off and attended both conferences together before deciding to spend some time travelling together. Eventually, they settled briefly after getting married, but work had both of them on the move again shortly thereafter, along with their two children.

Rick Hopper

• Relationship: Grandfather (H)
• Age: 96 years
• Geologist (Retired), California (Earth)

After graduating with a degree in Geology from the University of California, Rick Hopper began a decades-long career travelling throughout the continental United States (and later, internationally) studying geological phenomena. After a mix-up regarding the correct dates of a conference he was meant to attend, he ran into his future wife, Lynn, who was attending a legal conference on the Federation's stance towards the Romulan Star Empire following the Treaty of Algeron. The subject was totally out of Rick's depth, but he was so drawn to Lynn that he attended numerous day-long talks about it in order to spend time in her company.

The two would later marry and settle briefly in Oregon before resuming their travels, with two children in tow.

Robin Hopper^†

• Relationship: Uncle
• Age: Deceased in 2367 at age 27
• Security Officer, USS Saratoga

Robin was named for her uncle, Robin, who died during the battle of Wolf 359 several years before she was born. As it is a relatively private matter of family history, and because she never knew him, Robin and her family don't talk much about him.

Phoenyra Keox

• Relationship: Grandmother (C)
• Age: 149 years
• Naturalist & Engineer, Velestus

Growing up, Robin always idolized her grandmother as a personal hero. While she didn't fully comprehend Phoenyra's work as a child, she did understand that her grandmother was some sort of scientist and was involved in biological studies and, subsequently, holographic technology development. Phoenyra lives on Velestus, where she is still affiliated with ongoing research into biological integrations with holographic environments at the Keox Conservatory - an institution named in honour of her accomplishments within the field.

Phoenyra was part of the Centauran-led team that developed the modern Federation Holodeck in the mid-24th century, following up and improving on decades of work into the earlier "Rec Room" technologies, in order to recreate more immersive and lifelike simulated environments.

Ariston Zephyros

• Relationship: Grandfather (C)
• Age: 140 years
• Marine Biologist, Velestus

Robin has always found her Centauran grandfather a somewhat mysterious figure, as he and her grandmother, Phoenyra, never married. Her work kept her land-bound and he, as a marine biologist, would spend months or years at sea. It is perhaps no surprise, then, that his presence in their daughter, Ansyra's, life was fairly minimal - and that this trend would continue with his grandchildren as well, whom he has only met on a couple of occasions around holidays.

He is a boisterous and adventurous man, which Robin always liked to romanticize in her mind, but the truth is, she does not know him well.

Closest Relationships [Click to show/hide]

Nathan Richards

• Character Page
• Relationship: Romantically Involved / Dating
• Nickname(s): Nate, Lover Boy
• Chief of Operations, Amity Outpost

As with many great relationships, Robin and Nathan first connected over coffee and legacy computer operating systems. Working together on the "franken-shuttle" Targhee project, the attraction between the two was immediate and it didn't take long before they tried their luck on a date - however, they quickly determined that their relationship goals were incompatible. Over the following year, the two of them agreed to cool things down and and remain friends. During that time of immense struggle, Robin found Nathan to be an honest, reliable, and genuine friend - and the two of them would come to each others' aid repeatedly, both during missions and throughout their personal lives.

Try as they might, though, both found it a struggle to remain truly platonic - though they were able to build stable foundation of mutual understanding and deep respect while their feelings for each other continued to develop in repression. Following a desperate kiss during a particularly harrowing experience in the Mirror Universe, Robin and Nathan talked things over and decided try exploring their mutual romantic interest again. While at first they tried to keep their developing "situationship" a secret, the attempt was shortlived and they began openly dating shortly thereafter.

	Personal History

Early Life

Growing up on the “old frontier” world of Theta VII, Robin always felt like she had ‘the best of both worlds’ in her reach. New discoveries were still being made and visitors from exciting new civilizations still traveled through the ports of Theta with regularity – yet, as an established colony, they also boasted the developed infrastructure, technology, and resources that characterized life in The Federation.

Robin’s parents, a Human FDC representative and a Centauran terraforming consultant, had met on Velestus (Alpha Centauri IV), but opted to settle down on Theta VII - a world that neither of them called ‘home’, where they felt they could make a fresh start. There, they took over the management of a state-of-the-art hydroponic farming estate from its retiree owners.

This environment fostered Robin’s interest in Science from a young age – though she never dreamt of joining Starfleet or becoming a career scientist. Throughout her youth, Robin was certain she would become an artist. Her love of art and media (including modern holostories as well as vintage films and books) led her to undertaking an internship with Encrer Livre – an Earth-based publishing company – in her late teens.

It was during this internship that she first discovered her interest in holo-programming (and realized she had a knack for it). Exploring further, she quickly discovered an unexpected love for programming and computer science – finding the near-endless creative possibilities and practicability of the skill exciting. As she neared the end of her schooling, Robin realized she wanted to better understand the underlying principles that advanced computing and hologram technology were built on.

Education - University

To continue her studies, following her newly-developed interest in STEM subjects, Robin traveled to Earth for better educational prospects. While she found being far from home challenging for the first year, she quickly grew to appreciate the opportunities that studying - and living - on Earth afforded. She completed her Masters graduate studies at UC Berkeley, then went on to complete her PhD in Physics at Starfleet Academy in San Francisco.

During her time studying at Berkeley, Robin first experienced disco music and the band ABBA, which quickly became favourites of hers. This was also when she discovered her intolerance for the grain 'hops', as her first time trying beer led to a brief hospitalization. Hopper also played volleyball for her University team, and still has a UC Berkeley tank top, which she proudly wears during workouts.

Education - Starfleet Academy

After six years studying physics in California, it was hard to ignore the call of Starfleet. She applied for the Academy on a whim, submitting an application to complete her PhD studies that she never expected to be accepted. According to Hopper's own account, she submitted her Academy Application on a dare after drinking eight shots of tequila while celebrating the completion of her Master's thesis. Much to her surprise, she was accepted. As a Starfleet Cadet, she earned her doctorate in four years and was able to further expand her knowledge of programming through a few elective Engineering courses. This time at the Academy also allowed her to round out her Scientific knowledge, attaining a wider set of skills that would make her a formidable Science Officer upon graduation. As a result of her exceptional studies, Robin graduated Starfleet Academy with the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade.

Lieutenant Robin Hopper

USS Wall Street Service Record (239704.28 - 239907.02)

Overview

Robin’s first posting was aboard the Oracle Class USS Wall Street under the command of Captain Sh'Torn. There, she learned quickly amidst a crew of dedicated scientific minds. Her outgoing personality and enthusiasm earned her a spot on the ship’s coveted ‘day shift’ where she would be able to work closely with the vessel’s Chief Science Officer, Trisha Montgomery. Initially splitting her time between Physics and Computer Science project, with Montgomery's guidance Hopper eventually achieved the rank of Lieutenant and took on a role as Assistant Chief Science Officer.

Given her background and ongoing work in Computer Science, Robin's work often overlapped with the Engineering and Operations divisions. Not only was this interdepartmental work crucial to her eventual move into the Assistant CSO role - offering her experience coordinating and working with a wider number of crewmembers - it is also how she met Ensign Egan Retel. The two worked on several projects together and eventually became romantically-involved.

When news of Amity Outpost’s establishment in the Delta Quadrant reached Robin’s ears, she felt immediately drawn to the distant and exciting deep space station. Already used to an extended mission far from home, the prospect of traveling months away from Federation space seemed totally worth it in exchange for an opportunity to work in such an advanced and resourced Science and Research Center – not to mention the chance to meet denizens of the Delta Quadrant. She had also long been intrigued by the story of Voyager, following it closely as a child, which only enhanced the draw of the new Outpost.

Excited at the prospect, and with Chief Science Officer Montgomery’s recommendation on her file, Robin requested a transfer to Amity Outpost in mid-2399 and decided to end her relationship with Retel, then a Lieutenant JG, as she didn't put much faith in long-distance relationships.

Lt. Commander Robin Hopper

Amity Outpost Service Record (239907.26 - Present)

Introduction

Once her transfer was approved, Robin spent her remaining time aboard the Wall Street tying up loose ends and finishing off projects, as well as training her replacement. She left many of her personal belongings behind, bringing only what she could fit in her duffel bag, a portal transporter buffer, and her prized Stromanthe Triostar plant. Arriving in late July, 2399, Robin quickly became acquainted with her new colleagues and received a briefing in the station's extensive Science and Research Center (or SRC) from Science Officer Lieutenant Kivik.

Kivik also requested Hopper's assistance in supporting an injured crewmember with a personal project; Nathan Richards was building a shuttle - later named the Targhee - from various component pieces and needed assistance getting the various parts' computer systems working together. The two became fast friends and, after initially admitting mutual attraction, went on one date before deciding that they were better off keeping things platonic. As of late 2400, however, the two had finally given in and decided to give dating a try.

That was not the only change late 2400 would bring for Hopper, though - as, following her promotion to Lt. Commander, she was also surprised by Ambassador Vataix asking her to step up her Starfleet duties as the station's Second Officer. Accepting enthusiastically, Robin has since had the opportunity to take Command of Amity's support vessel, the USS Independence-B as well as act as the Acting First Officer of the Outpost... with mixed successes. In mid-2401, Amity's First Officer, Wil Ukinix, recommended her for a First Officer placement aboard the USS Cambridge, but Hopper turned it down - for once, happy just to stay where she was a while longer.

Mission - Protocols (239909 - 239910)

[Click to show/hide]

The crew of Amity was assigned to support the efforts of several noble representatives from various Houses of Betazed in their joint effort to establish colony sites on the recently-discovered world, Idrustix. While aware that the planet was home to a uniquely-telepathic bacterium, none knew of the organisms' origins. Shortly after landing, the crew became trapped under a radioactive net which surrounded the planet. The Trenvonn announced their presence, and their intentions to purify the planet of their dangerous experimental bacteria by eradicating all life on the surface - including the unfortunate Starfleet Officers and Betazoid Nobles.

Robin, serving on a team with Wil Ukinix and Lohani Vananth-Polgonz, was forced to step outside her role as Science Officer - performing lifesaving combat medicine in order to halt the dangerous effects of a Trenvonn Drone and, later, engaging and destroying one such drone. Fortunately, Captain Rahman and the remaining staff and crew in orbit aboard the USS Kitty Hawk, were eventually able to work out a diplomatic solution with the Trenvonn before everyone on the surface were killed.

Mini Mission - Nostalgia (239912)

[Click to show/hide]

While the crew of Amity Outpost, along with several honoured guests, celebrated Wil Ukinix's successful completion of his Command Practical and subsequent promotion to Commander, a rogue Temporal Integrity Commission agent attempted to change the past - stranding Ukinix, Captain Rahman, and the other VIP guests, on a remote world from their past. Shielded by their proximity to the 'time bubble' effect - Rivi Vataix and Robin were the only two people aware of the sudden change to the timeline. As they put together the pieces of what happened, they were able to work with the crew of Amity Outpost to undo the TIC's meddling and restore the timeline to its proper order.

Mission - Worthy Prey (240001-240002)

[Click to show/hide]

Following an unprovoked attack on Ambassador Vataix in unmarked Hirogen hunting grounds by the traditionalist provocateur, Ravarj, Amity Outpost played host to several prominent Hirogen Tribes in an attempt to establish a revitalized diplomatic relationship with the Delta Quadrant hunters. The peace talks began with group tours of Amity's facilities, demonstrating the technological advancements made by the Federation since their last contact with the Hirogen approximately thirty years prior.

Making unprecedented use of several Starfleet ships sent (with skeleton crews) to reinforce Amity's defenses, Vataix arranged for a joint operation with the Hirogen - including a simulated "War Games". Hopper was temporarily assigned as the First Officer aboard the Intrepid Class USS Jemison, along with Acting CO Wil Ukinix, Acting Chief Engineer Nathan Richards, and the civilian science analyst Nadeshiko. The Jemison, along with the USS Halsey, under Commander Addison MacKenzie, and several other Starfleet and Hirogen vessels, led "Blue Team" to victory over the Kitty Hawk-led "Red Team".

Mission - Dark Roses (240005 - 240008)

[Click to show/hide]

During a mission to an alternate universe (the Mirror Universe) that remains classified under the Parallax Protocol, Hopper participated in the rescue of several FDC, Starfleet, and Betazoid Noble personnel (including Rivi Vataix, Cara Veers, Tri'lea Polgonz, and Nathan Richards) who had been captured by the Betazoid Empire (Unified Houses of Betazed). The mission, which greatly affected many of the Officers that participated in it, definitely shook Hopper and she will likely be processing and attempting to work through the 'dark reality' she witnessed there for some time. Shortly after returning to Amity Outpost, Robin was presented with a promotion to Lieutenant Commander.

Mission - It's Always Sunny in the Delta Quadrant (240009 - 240011)

[Click to show/hide]

An unusual radio pulsar drew Amity's First Officer, Wil Ukinix, and Chief Science Officer, Robin Hopper on a routine expedition to investigate the astral phenomenon. When they arrived, however, they were surprised to detect a faint warp signature. A fateful decision was made by Ukinix to investigate the nearby planet for signs of advanced life, however the 'pulsar' suddenly seemed to react to their presence, disabling their shuttle and forcing an emergency 'landing'. Both officers were quickly greeted by the local populace, however due to unforeseen shortcomings with the Universal Translator's ability to process the Paak's unique language, they wound up accidentally gravely insulting the Paak's leader and people.

The pair awaited trial in prison and, when a prospective rescue operation began, were dismayed to find that their rescuers had also been apprehended and now all were awaiting trial. Eventually, the decision was reached that several of the crew would face penalties for their actions, which primarily took the form of 'educational experiences'. Following this mission, Robin was offered the position of Second Officer.

Mission - Toxicity (240012 - 240101)

[Click to show/hide]

A runaway Malon antimatter waste freighter was reportedly on a collision course with the nearby Betazoid colony world, Idrustix. In a swift response, Amity's senior staff launched an intervention mission aboard the USS Independence-B. Newly promoted Second Officer Hopper led one of the away teams that would board the freighter, quickly determining that it had been largely abandoned - save a few stalwart engineers, and a few crewmembers who had succumbed to intense radiation poisoning, leading them to act in unpredictable and violent ways.

Separated from her team, Robin crawled through the vents in order to reach engineering and restore communications, but was hotly pursued by one of these irradiated 'feral' Malon. Encountering Bec Iko, Charlena Vanlith, and Kaito Moore, she joined with them in order to overload the ship's warp engines with antimatter waste. While this action would eventually lead the ship to explode, it provided sufficient thrust to redirect it away from the planet. The Indy-B, along with a friendly Malon vessel, were then able to tow the ship into the sun - the Starfleet crew aboard able to escape with minimal time to spare.

Mission - Bless This Home (240103 - 240105)

[Click to show/hide]

Amidst the backdrop of a visit from Federation President Narala, Amity Outpost is also set to host a delegation from New Talax who are interested in presenting the first application from a Delta Quadrant species to join the United Federation of Planets. For the first time, Robin was tasked with taking command of the USS Independence-B and provide a tour of the Nuriootpa Solar Nebula, its benamite-rich asteroid field, and the Hawlat Angels to some of the visiting representatives. However, an incoming call for support from New Talax diverts Amity's plans.

Evidently, there are several rather die situations unfolding on New Talax. Chief among these, are tensions between the colony's leadership and its mining workers, who believe that conditions are becoming too dangerous as a result of the hostile Nedic Dreznin, who claim the asteroid belt housing New Talax rightfully belong to them. There have been numerous acts of sabotage that have damaged mining equipment and, in several cases, injured Talaxian workers. As Hopper and her team are sent to investigate and offer aid, they quickly realize the situation is devolving far more quickly than expected, and the miners have taken a Nedic Dreznin hostage, demanding change. As the diplomatic situation between Nedic Drez, New Talax, and the Federation became more heated, the miners took several more hostages - the Starfleet Officers sent to investigate the sabotage!

Hoping to avoid a worst-case scenario, Robin takes a team down to the asteroid's surface in order to rescue the Starfleet team covertly and there encounter a Nedic Dreznin team performing their own secretive rescue mission. Working together, they manage to breach the Mining rig and locate their people. Just as a firefight seems inevitable, word comes from the Nedic government that they will be prioritizing peace and the aggressive mining conglomerates will be stopped. As a show of good faith, the rebellious miners call a stop to their actions and released the hostages into Hopper's custody.
