	Relationships

Starfleet

Leenaya Edrei Academy Friend Alyndra met Leenaya Edrei during the final exam at the academy, where they were both assigned medical officers. They were the only cadets to graduate from their class, and although they were assigned to different ships, Alyndra fondly recalls her time with Edrei and hopes they will serve together in the future. Quentin Beck Boss Beck and Alyndra have shared some intriguing conversations regarding Earth Literature. Although their time together has been limited thus far, she appreciates him and regards him as a good boss, and friend. T’Fearne Elaazni Bestie and Roommate Roommates who play together stay together, that's why they're besties!

Family

Norala Syrex Alyndra Syrex's Mother - Revok Syrex Alyndra Syrex's Father, - Voren Syrex Alyndra Syrex's Older Brother Notably developed a tricorder module that can hone in on a specific lifeform and overload onto it. The idea came from when his adopted brother "Topa" accidentally brought back a gang of Cardassian Voles from his pilgrimage to Bajor.

As a refugee from that planet, he looks upon the militia as heroes for driving out the Cardiassians and defending the frontline in the Dominion War

	Background

Alyndra Syrex was born on Trill (Trillius Prime, Alpha Quadrant) in 2375 as the second child of Norala and Revok Syrex, arriving after her older brother Voren Syrex. Norala, her mother, dedicated herself to educating at the symbiosis commission, while Revok, her father, pursued a career in designing new computer systems for the same organisation.

Three years after Alyndra's birth, her sister Tessa Syrex joined the family. Shortly after, her parents opened their hearts and home to a Bajoran orphan named Topa. Despite being adopted, Alyndra never viewed Topa as anything other than a cherished family member, hardly recognising any differences between them and the native Trill.

Her upbringing was focused on logic, the sciences, and the Trill philosophy of treating oneself and one's body with the respect given to others. With both of her parents working at the symbiosis commission she was raised to respect and admire the symbionts, growing to know that one day she would wish to join, she just wanted to offer the symbiont an interesting and unique experience.

One of the defining moments when she knew she wanted to join Starfleet was during a family “Cultural Excursion” in San Francisco when she was still a child. During this trip, she witnessed a Denobulan fall seriously ill near the harbour Alyndra wanted to help them but didn’t know how. Until she saw a few well-dressed people (who she later learned were students at Starfleet Academy) leap into action running towards and treating them. The way they co-ordinated themselves was hypnotic, she knew that that was how she could make a difference. When she returned to Trill, she began volunteering at the Symbiosis Commission to educate herself to the point where she felt ready and was old enough to complete her first degree in Biomedical science on Trill to enable her to study medicine at Starfleet Academy on Earth. Whilst completing her degree on Trill, she applied to receive a symbiont, she had completed most of the demanding process by mid-2396. The last step in her journey to becoming joined is an official recommendation from a Field docent, which she has yet to receive as she left for Starfleet Academy on Earth.

	Career History

Degrees:

Undergraduate: Biomedical Science (Taken on Trill)

Postgraduate: Medicine with a Minor in Helm/Navigation

During Alyndras’ time at the academy, she both trained and volunteered in the children’s section of the training hospital. She got the experience of treating a wide number of different species as well as developing a reputation for a great bedside manner. She also took advantage of being a Trill, by getting her nervous patients to count the spots on her head whilst they were being treated. Many of these patients were children, thus Alyndra became a young prodigy within her placement hospital in paediatrics.

She also made a handful of friends at the academy, including Theodore Jameson, whom she met in her classes and would take the final exam together, however he did not pass first time. Alyndra was promoted to ensign without him. Without Alyndra to help him through the academy, he dropped out, he has yet to return. Another one of her friends from her training cruise includes Leenaya Edrei, whom was soon transferred to the USS Chin'toka as a medical officer, Alyndra hopes to work with them again someday.

She also found an appreciation for the freedom of flight, specifically after taking a day trip to the Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C and discovering the story of Amelia Earhart and how she beat the odds by proving that women could fly planes too in a part of Earth’s History that seemed so archaic. So, in her off time, she began to train and eventually received a minor in Helm/Navigation.

Mission Log

Deep Space 33 Shore Leave Alyndra arrives on Board the Ronin via shuttlecraft towards the end of the crew's shore leave. Before the Ronin departs however, she is able to meet a few members of the crew, including: Captain Niac, Acting CMO Lt JG Quentin Beck and Security officer/roommate Ensign T'Fearne. Stand Off (Ronin) Mission 1 The Ronin engages in a tense game of cat and mouse with the Lattice Alliance. With the support of the Khitomer and the Excalibur-A, the crew ultimately wins the battle, but the victory comes at a heavy cost. During the conflict, Alyndra is ambushed by a rogue changeling, leaving her shaken but determined. Mid-way through the battle, Chief Science Officer Lt. Commander Alieth enlists Alyndra for an urgent away mission. Joined by Lt. Raidai and Lt. Lorana, the team boards the Rhine, bound for a seemingly abandoned Lattice Alliance structure. As they explore, the team uncovers a startling discovery: a Trill symbiont, long thought lost to time—Salix. The Lattice Alliance had been exploiting the symbiont to extract information about Sencha radiation. With the clock ticking, the team scrambles to rescue Salix and make contact through a joined Trill, Tanara Vylax. With Salix liberated; the Ronin and the Khitomer heavily damaged and towed by several California-class ships, they head to Deep Space 9 for much-needed repairs. Deep Space 9 Shore Leave Ongoing
