==Medical Conditions==
 
At age five, Bey showed early signs of a genetic disorder called Quattuor Nonvera Cerebri, more commonly known as Placca's Syndrome. Placca's Syndrome is an incredibly rare genetic condition that can occur in the offspring of human and Argelians, particularly if one or both of the parents has psychic abilities. Individuals with Placca's Syndrome are nearly impossible to "read," either telepathically or empathically, and are often mathematical savants. They are also more prone to mild forms of social anxiety. as well as the onset of dementia in the latter stages of life.
 
While at the Academy, Captain Xyrana Parta, a member of the Starfleet Medical Corps, developed a synthetic protein protocol to treat the social anxiety aspect of Placca's Syndrome, as well as put off or eliminate the onset of dementia during the latter states of Bey's life.
 
There is a standing order attached to Bey's medical file that the protocol be administer to Bey once every six months. No adjustments are to be made to the protocol without first consulting with Captain Parta. Bey has reported drowsiness and a particularly deep sleep on the night after receiving the protocol, but no other side effects.
 
Captain Parta has also suggested counseling sessions to help Bey handle Placca's Syndrome, but has left the determination and frequency of those sessions to each Ship's Counselor.
 
==Manner==
* '''Quarters''': Has a copy of Giovanni Torriano's "Select Italian Proverbs" with a handwritten inscription on the inside cover. She also has a copy of the book "The Mathematical Jester," of which she was a contributor
* '''Favorite Room''':
* '''Mannerisms''':
* '''Physical Limitations''': Though she passed the Academy's TAC101 course, she is far from an accomplished master of unarmed combat
* '''Temperment''':
* '''Habits''':
* '''Religion/Spiritual Devotion''':
 
==Personality==
Introductory information about personality. This section should be the "writer's" assesment of the character's personality. There is also a section for StarFleet Personality Profile below.
 
===Hobbies and Pastimes===
 
* Sailing
* Parkour, mudding, obstacle courses and other forms of 'adventure' racing, both as a participant and a spectator (very knowledgable of statistics of more prominent athletes)
* Billiard sports
* Plays both the piano and the cavaquinho at what she considers a "passable" level.
* Plays the feadóg stáin at a symphony player level
 
===Likes and Dislikes===
 
* Likes
** The Corrs (a 20th/21st century band)
 
* Dislikes
** Parrises Squares and most other physical contact sports
** Outside of Black Jack (which Bey finds only "tolerable,') Bey strongly dislikes poker and other card games
 
===Ambitions and Goals===
 
===Personal Achievements and Disappointments===
Earned a doctorate in applied mathematics at age 23. Her doctoral thesis was entitled "The potential of fuzzy-fractal logic when applied to artificial neural networks, with specific applications to bioneural gel packs."
 
Captained the winning sailboat twice for Earth's Intercollegiate Match Race Championship: the first time for Princeton, the second time for Starfleet Academy
 
Crewmember of winning schooner in the 2397 Daystrom Regatta's Classical Division.
 
Bey was a contributor to the book "The Mathematical Jester," a collection of papers and essays on whimsical mathematical subjects. Bey's essay, entitled "The Geometry of the Hussle," describes the basic trigonometry, elementary differential calculus and knowledge of the geometric consequences of elastic collisions of spheres of uniform density that is required to master any billiard game.
 
==Family==
 
===Spouse===
* '''Marital Status''': Single
 
===Children===
 
None
 
===Parents===
 
'''Mother:''' Kara Semu
 
Bey's mother, an Argelian capable of empathic contact, met Bey's "designated father" while the latter was on shore leave on Argelius II. Soon after, Liqu Semu retired and the couple moved to Earth after they married.. At her mother's insistence, the married couple set up residence in Bois Caudex, a commune in Upstate New York. Bey's mother felt the commune was the closest cultural match to her home world that could be found on Earth.
 
Even though Bey legally emancipated herself from her parents at age twelve, Bey maintains erratic contact with her mother.
 
'''Father:''' Liqu Semu
 
Liqu Semu reached the rank of Senior Chief Specialist before retiring (his last posting was on the USS Zerai Deres). Bey refers to Liqu as her designated father, since she is convinced he is not her biological father. Bey has not had contact with Liqu since leaving the commune at age 12 (when she was legally emancipated from him and Kara). Bey insists her father played no part in her joining Starfleet. Nevertheless, Bey often quotes and Liqu's maxims when deciding how to act in Starfleet.
 
The List of Maxims includes (but is not limited to)
 
* Don't bro them until you know them
* When a superior is acting crazy, that is not an invitation to join their craziness
* Never go looking for an officer, because you'll always find one
* Nothing is ever that easy
 
===Siblings===
 
Since Bey is unsure of who her biological father is, she is not sure if she might have half-siblings. Given the nature of the commune in which she grew up, even if Liqu Semu is her biological father, she knows that he could have fathered other children on the commune. In any event, Bey knows her mother only had one child, and Bey has no interest in determining either who her biological father is, or if she has any half-siblings.
 
===Other Relatives===
 
Bey has an aunt and cousin on SB118 whom she has only met once, just prior to her assignment to the Veritas. The aunt and cousin run an Argelian restaurant in SB118's Little Risa.
 
==Relationships==
 
'''Captain Xyrana Parta''' -- a physician, geneticist and member of the Starfleet Medical Corps, Captain Parta is considered Starfleet's leading expert in a number of rare genetic disorders and conditions, including Placca's Syndrome. She not only developed a synthetic protein protocol to help Bey address certain negative side effects of Placca's (both in the present and in the distant future), she has also served as a mentor for Bey when she was a cadet.
 
'''Lieutenant jg Adam Hendrickson''' -- an upper classman who worked with Bey so that she could pass her unarmed combat class. Adam went into Starfleet Intelligence. He once told Bey that he could read a person better by the rate of their eyeblinks than by being able to read their thoughts.
 
==Personal History==
 
Bey was born in a region of North America known colloquially as Upstate New York. The commune she was born in, Bois Caudex, had been established to promote such ideas as New Human-ness, Free Love and other counterculture maxims.
 
At age twelve, Bey found a sponsor and had herself legally emancipated from her parents.
 
At age sixteen, Bey was enrolled in a local community college. By age twenty-three, she had earned a doctorate in applied mathematics from Princeton University.
 
At age eighteen, a friend convinced Bey to participate in a Parisses Squares based holonovel. The program itself minimized the more violent aspect of the game, but Bey still developed an aversion for Parisses Squares and most other contact sports.
 
Bey's embarking on an academic career in the field of applied mathematics was due, in part, to her genetic predisposition toward the subject, and also in part as a sort of act of defiance against the hedonistic upraising she had received. Initially, she had no desire to enter Starfleet, associating the Fleet with the negative feelings she had toward her "designated father."
 
However, during her academic career, she had the opportunity to meet a number of Starfleet members past and present. Some were fellow students, others were instructors. They would either be officers or enlisted personnel furthering their education, or retirees looking to develop new interests or find opportunities to share accumulated knowledge. Bey even became friends with the cadet captain whom she beat out at the Match Race Championship as Princeton's captain.
 
There was no "Aha" moment when Bey decided that she wanted to pursue a career in Starfleet. Her decision was a gradual thing. At the age of sixteen, a career in Starfleet was the last thing she would ever consider. At age twenty-three, when she earned her doctorate, her decision to join Starfleet seemed almost inevitable.
