Robin Hopper/Stories

The following are sims written from Hopper's perspective (or Joint Posts including Hopper's POV), arranged in rough IC chronological order.

Life Before Amity

Early Life, Theta VII

Hopper grew up on her parents' farm estate on Theta VII, a somewhat rough-and-tumble "old frontier" mining, agricultural, and trade port colony. There are no sims set during Hopper's adolescence on Theta VII (yet).

UC Berkeley Campus

University of California, Berkeley

Hopper travelled to Earth for the first time, earning a Bachelors and Masters Degree at the University of California's Berkeley campus.

Starfleet Academy, San Francisco

Starfleet Academy, San Francisco

After completing her Master's at UC Berkeley, Hopper was (pleasantly) surprised to have her application to Starfleet Academy accepted and relocated to San Francisco to complete her PhD.

Family History (Flashback)

Hopper decides to reconnect with her estranged sister, Keri, after a silence of over two years - but the memory of their last interaction still gives her brain freeze...
