==Personality==
Elopii has spent her whole life trying to please people.  At first it was the taciturn Matron Azul, then it was her brokenhearted Father, her aloof Vulcan Tutor and her cool tempered Andorian Sensei.  Later still it was the Federation's own Merchant Marines who saw Elopii as a spoiled child of privilege and Starfleet Academy who wasn't entirely sure what to do the talented albeit abrasive young woman. 
 
In her final year of Starfleet Academy, Elopii was invited to train at a specialized faility and learn intelligence skills that could provide a critical edge in her chosen career path.  At first she had been excited but it didn't take long for her to develop a true distaste for the seedier, dishonest aspects of intelligence. After being reluctantly recruited for a mission were she was rejoin the Merchant Marines,
Elopii failed miserably and quite deliberately in her assignment. After several months of debriefing, she was transferred to Starbase 118.
 
The failure in her mission was cathartic and liberating.  While old habits may die hard, Cadet Azul realizes there's a greater mission, a higher principal then just pleasing ones superiors.  She believes in what Starfleet stands for and will do whatever she can to help see it's promise continuously realized.  It is that by that paradigm she measures herself and in turn those around her, no matter their rank.
 
 
===Hobbies and Pastimes===
 
* Loves to go dancing.
* Avid holodeck user.  Has a host of programs all design to hone skills, especially less used ones.
* Poker (Earth's one great contribution to interstellar culture)
* Testing the patience of peers and strangers alike.
 
===Likes and Dislikes===
 
* Enjoys a good insult, even if directed at her.
* A good argument, win or lose.
* Likes getting mail and messages from her siblings.
*  Mud baths.  Hmmmm. So hard to find, too.
* Trying new food and drinks.  Tries to never to eat the same thing twice.
* Fashionable/Stylish clothing.
*Attending parties, ceremonies and religious rituals.
 
* Dislikes giggling in the 'human way'.
* Dislikes people jumping to conclusions.
* Dislikes tools designed for daintier digits.
* Dislikes getting mail from her parents.
* Dislikes intelligence work and most intelligence operatives.
 
 
===Ambitions and Goals===
 
Ambitions are hard for Ęlopii to embrace as she feels like she's been trying to escape the past for most of her life.  For as long as she can recall her chief motivation has been to prove herself, as the runt of the litter, as a daughter worthy of her father, as something more than a spoiled child of privilege,    even as cadet worthy of a 2nd (or 3rd) chance. Azul is done with that!
 
Arriving at Starbase 118 came on the heels of  life affirming 'failure' and she has begun looking at her life with new eyes.  With over half her life spent in space, Elopii sees the Starbase as a potential home.  Her life as an Ambassador's daughter, a Merchant Marine and even now as a Starfleet Cadet suddenly seem to fit.  While Azul is ready to pay her dues, for the first time in her life... Elopii feels like she's come home.  Her singular goal is to make a future at the Starbase... as a Starfleet Officer if she can... or a loyal and productive Federation citizen if she can't.
 
 
===Personal Achievements and Disappointments===
 
Ęlopii is secretive about her pre-Academy life, even more so of her youth prior to the Merchant Marines.  Issues she keeps close to her bosom are failing the Starfleet Academy Exam the first time, her humbling years as a sailor, her disastrous marriage, her semester long suspension as a Starfleet Cadet, failure at her one and only Intelligence mission, being an Ambassador's daughter and the child of a prestigious Tellarite Clan, rejection by her Terran relatives and, most especially,  her 'failure' as an attache in her father's service.  She is also rather annoyed at having to meet with a counselor indefinitely. 
 
She is, however, rather proud of surviving Starfleet Academy despite several setbacks.  Ęlopii is quietly pleased with her eventual success and acceptance as a Merchant Marine albeit short lived.  She is also quite proud of her skill as marksman and as a dancer.  (The latter is measured more by enthusiasm then talent.)
 
 
==Family==
 
Elopii Azul was conceived at the behest of Ambassador Horkal Azul for his beloved Terran mistress Sylvia Freilander.  Upon her birth the Ambassador's estranged wife, the Matron Azul took full custody of the child which was her right by law.  She was then raised in full Tellarite tradition with her six brothers and sisters. 
 
After Frielander died tragically years later, Elopii was returned to her father.  Doting on his small daughter, hired a Vulcan tutor to educate and guide the girl.  The Ambassador kept the child close and involved with many of his diplomatic assignments, most often to his benefit and pleasure.  Unfortunately, when Elopii was barely 17 years of age, a convoluted mission turned disastrous and she responsibility for the turn of events. 
 
Elopii returned to Tellar in disgrace and was soon involved in an arranged marriage to another Tellarite hybrid in effort to restore the family's honor.  He affair turned disastarous and Elopii was 'rescued' by her siblings who eventually help her get into the Federation's Merchant Marines.  While dropping holiday hellos to her Tellarite parents, it's her siblings that she really keeps in touch with and regularly shares tales of adventure from throughout known the known universe.
 
 
===Spouse===
 
* '''Marital Status''': Annulled
** '''Spouse''': Hammin Insu Tark (Tellarite/Betazoid Hybrid)
** '''Place of Marriage''': Betazed.
 
Hammin was a second generation hybrid, indistinguishable from a standard Betazoid male save for a rather dashing pair of small tusks and small beady eyes that he hides behind a stylish visor. A son of the 2nd House of Betazed he was a haughty, self important hedonist with limited telepathic abilities.  Theirs was an arranged marriage and while legal in record, Ęlopii's Tellarite siblings spirited her away before the ceremonies ensued in full. Arguably so they wouldn't have to see their parents naked as was the local custom during marriage rituals.  The marriage was finally annulled during her third year in as a Merchant Marine.  It had apparently taken that long for Hammin to realize that Azul was going to change her mind.
 
 
===Parents===
 
Ambassador Horkal Azul, Father.
This Tellarite Ambassador was fiscally and biologically responsible for the conception of Elopii Azul, who he had created for his beloved Terran mistress.  While his estranged spouse, the matron Azul would demand custody of the child by her legal rights, he later became Elopii's fulltime parent after the death of his mistress.  Doting on his youngest child, he made sure she had the finest of education in the hiring of a retired Vulcan professor.  As Elopii matured, she would routinely accompany him on his diplomatic missions, even serving as an attache in her teen years.  While the younger Azul took responsibility for the diplomatic disaster that occurred along the Cardassian border, some believe it was a sacrifice to save her father's career and honor.
 
Sylvia Freilander, Diplomatic Attache
This savvy Terran litigant was the biological mother of Elopii Azul and carried the child for most of her development.  Upon Elopii's birth, the babe was spirited away after legal action was taken by the Ambassador's wife.  Despite Freilander's own talents as a lawyer, the Matron Azul held firm that the Azul's Premarital Accord cited that only the Matron herself had right or privilege to raise the Ambassador's progeny.  While numerous legal maneuvers were attempted throughout the years, Freilander seldom saw her daughter and even then, never unsupervised.  She died over twenty years ago while protecting the Ambassador Azul from an assassination attempt.
 
Matron Jalalla Azul, Head Householder of Clan Azul
Wife of Horkal Azul, she was also legal mother to all of his children, even the one runt she did not give birth to.  Outraged by the gift of a child to his human whore, the matron persevered in securing the runt from the tawdry pair, raising the child in strict Tellarite tradition.  While small in size, the spirited runt proved clever enough in mind and her presence was not the complete suffrage the Matron had expected.  When Horkal's whore died, the Matron dissolved her obligations to the runt and passed her to the Ambassador's care. While this was done out of pity or merely to exacerbate her estranged husband's pain, both possibilities have been argued.  The stoic Matron has admitted nothing.
 
 
===Siblings===
 
Ęlopii has six Tellarite siblings, three brothers and three sisters, all by the Matron Azul who is the legal wife of her father.  All Elopii's siblings are part of the same sextuplet litter though everyone insists Dakum is adopted.  He's never been been able to provide a reasonable argument to the contrary and this general accepted as proof in and of itself.
 
Brother Dakum, is a bartender on a space station not far from Earth.  Recently married to a rich Bolian widow, his life is fairly laid back when not seeded with shady characters and ever shadier schemes for greater wealth.  His communications are sporadic and usually include a request of financial assistance.
 
Sister Solia is a medical doctor on a reclaimed colony along the Bajoran (now Federation)-Cardassian border. She is the proud mother of six and seven.  Six are her own by a fellow Tellarite colonist and seven are adopted orphans a mix of Terran, Bajoran and Cardassian foundlings.  Elopii always gets tearfully emotional when hearing from them. Several of the oldest are already starting families of their own and hardly a day goes by with Elopii hearing from Solia and her litters.
 
Sister Huppala served as an Ensign aboard Voyager when it was lost.  Now a Lieutenant, she works as engineer on a science vessel exploring the Gamma Quadrant.  Her communications are infrequent but always intriguing.
 
Brother Torkel is a litigant with Starfleet and deals primarily with Ferengi contracts.  He communicates regularly, often bragging about his conquests in and out of the courtroom. 
 
Sister Lydia is the Matron Azul's personal assistant and caretaker.  She is contracted to be the next Matron Azul and has become engaged to Elopii's jilted husband who Lydia insists isn't really all that bad.  Her communications are a matter of routine and often contain some aspect of the Prenuptial Accord that is being negotiated.  She also reminds the rest of the family as to birthdays, special events and special events ona frequent basis.
 
Brother Pip is an archeological artist performing restorations on Bajor.  He's fallen in love with a Vedek, a pious young man who seems to take great joy in arguing the authenticity and artistic liberties of Pip's work.  While her brother insists this is some form epic foreplay, he has yet to defrock his priest.  Though his communications are sporadic, they are always lengthy, dramatic and include beautiful images of the work he's been doing or the places he's visited as well as images of the clueless Bajoran who has captured poor Pip's overly romantic heart.  This same fellow who also appears to be curiously present during Pip's frequent adventures into the vast catalog of Bajoran antiquity.  While Pip has no children of his own, he's taken several foundlings, two Bajorans and a Cardassians as 'apprentices'.  His students are treated as relatives even by the Matron Azul who has visited her 'youngest' son several times in recent years...arguably to enjoy what remains of half a million years of culture.
 
 
===Extended Family===
 
T'maj, Vulcan Tutor
Shortly after the death of her biological mother, young Elopii was sent to live with her father who, in turn, hired a tutor, mentor and guardian for the tempestuous runt: T'maj of Vulcan.  Previously retired from the Vulcan Science Academy, T'maj proved to be an effective, if demanding teacher and calming, if emotionally distance presence.  More than anyone alive or dead, Elopii loves and respects this woman as her 'truest mother'.    While serving her first tour as a Merchant marine, it broke young Azul's heart upon hearing of T'maj's decision to participate in the emotionally cleansing ritual of the Kholinar.
 
Major Grot, her Sensei and head her father's security detail
Several years after joining her father, the Ambassodor hired a new head of security, a former Andorian major. Their first argument revolved on the liabity and security concerns an adventurous young girl presented for the Ambassadorial team.  The elder Azul refused to budge on the matter and the Major was forced to pursue another strategy: to make sure the child was not a liability.  Grot became a second teacher for Elopii, teaching the child self defense and introducing her to weapons as appropriate.  An eager student, he eventually provided other security training as she matured, butting heads with her protective Vulcan Tutor.  Elopii loves the Major and verbally paints him as a doting Uncle.  In turn, Grot believes the hybrid child is delusional and any prideful smile elicited in her presence is attributed  to an old war injury.
 
Doctor Hermopolus, a Tellarite doctor specializing in hybrid children.
Nicknamed by Elopii, 'the Love Doctor', she spares no affection for the eccentric scientist who conceived her at Amabssador Azul's behest.  She would argue the crazy old fool sees her only as as a 'reasonably' successful science experiment which is a reasonable assessment of his character.  The rest of the Universe sees Hermopolus as Azul's family doctor of record and several of Elopii's physicians have consulted with him as a matter of course.  When this hypo-happy nut job finally kicks the bucket, Elopii will not shed a tear but she might very well buy a round in celebration.
 
 
==Personal History==
 
: ''Full Article: [[/Personal history|CHARACTER NAME Personal History]]''
 
Elopii Azul was a gift from the Ambassador Azul to his Terran mistress.  Conceived by an eccentric Tellarite doctor, she was then carried to term by her biological mother.  Upon the her birth, Elopii was taken into legal custody by the Matron Azul who raised the hybrid child as Tellarite until the mistresses death years later.  At that point she was returned to and raised by her father and his staff with the inclusion of a retired Vulcan educator whose sole responsibility was Elopii's care and education.
 
With the Ambassador Azul, Elopii was academically and physically prepared for the life of a diplomat, becoming a treasured assistant in her teen years.  After a diplomatic mission went horribly wrong, Elopii took responsibility and was sent back to Tellar to repair the family honor with an arranged marriage.  Rescued from the marriage by her older siblings, she joined the Federation's Merchant Marines if only because she failed Starfleet Academy's entrance exam.
 
After two tours and over a year of advance training as a sailor, Elopii Azul took Starfleet's Exam a second time.  Not only did she pass but she was able to matriculate several years of Academy training by way of her previous life experience.  While her Academy experience was not without set backs and censure, Elopii Azul graduated with a dual major in Helm and Com/Ops as well as a minor in Security.  Azul also spent a year at a specialized training facility, after which she participated in a delicate mission.  Though the mission was arguably a failure, after several months of debriefing Starfleet has decided to transfer Cadet Azul to Starbase 118 for her Cadet Cruise.

===StarFleet Assessments and Records===
: ''Full Article: [[/StarFleet Records|CHARACTER NAME StarFleet Records]]''
 
At 18, Elopii Azul made her first attempt to enter Starfleet's Academy.  Her exam scores were most notably lacking in more advanced sciences and oddly, for one of Tellarite background, engineering.  Traditionally, this species scores quite well in that aspect.  She was also determined to be a character of questionably maturity.  Rather then join as a non-com, Azul applied to and was by accepted to the Merchant Marine Academy.
 
After two tours of with the Federations Merchant Marines, including advanced training their ship operations, Azul retested and was accepted into Starfleet Academy.  Her acceptance is supported with several laudable recommendations from her previous assignments and service as a sailor appears to have been instrumental in her maturaation.  Eight years aboard freighters, Azul's previous experiences as a diplomatic attache as well as her private education provide numerous opportunities for matriculation and she entered the Academy with sophomore status and was approved to pursue a dual major in Helm and Com/Ops.
 
During Azul's second year, an Instructor in the Diplomatic Department recognized Azul as being held responsible for a certain diplomatic disaster ten years previous.  Using her reported youthful indiscretions as an example of Hostile Psychologies, the Instructor was attacked by Azul, only to rescued by her peers holding the cadet back.  After a closed door hearing, Azul received a semester suspension (which she spent 'volunteering' at a rehabilitation facility) after which she was allowed to return providing regular consulting sessions and routine medical examination to assure the soundness of her hybrid state.  While the Instructor involved question resigned rather then take a sabbatical or be reassigned to another facility.  Upon her return, Azul was directed to complete requirements for a Security minor and she has been 'volunteered' to help assist in security assignments as her duties otherwise permit.  She has served in this capacity competently.
 
Part of the agreement to allow Azul continued presence at the Academy was partial loss of her matriculation.  While the course material was counted as taken in substance it was not counted toward meeting the quantity of credits and she was required to take four years regardless.  During the 3rd year she had met requirements for a dual major in Helm and Com/Ops. 
 
Azul was transferred to an alternate Academy facility her fourth year and initially appeared excited at the opportunity to enhance her skills with the specialized training.  Toward the end of her support training, her enthusiasm waned greatly and she exhibited several unresolved conflicts with students and faculty alike.  Despite her reluctance and a protest from the Consuling staff, Azul was recruited for a special mission where her experiences as a Merchant Marine would prove crucial.  While the mission proved a technical failure, Azul preserved Federation principals and after several months of debriefing was more appropriately reassigned to Starbase 118.
