	Relationships

Friends

Teammate & Best Friend, Age 27, Centauran Mission Specialist, Ops Madison Marsh has been Alix's best friend since they were 16. They met at summer training camp for the girl's AAU basketball team where they were roommates. After high school they went separate ways as Madison joined Starfleet and Alix went to medical school. They kept in touch and reconnected when Alix later joined Starfleet while Madison was doing her medical studies. Madison is an extrovert that pushes Alix out of her shell and encourages her to pursue a more active social life.

Academy Roommate & Friend, Age 27, Human Medical Officer, USS Astraeus (LOA) Alix and Kris were roommates at Starfleet Academy. The two had very similar goals, interests and fields of specialty and became friends.

Academy Friend, Age 28, Human Chief of Security, USS Astraeus Alix and Charles were initially lab rivals at Starfleet Academy. Charles irritatingly accused Alix of hogging lab time, which was absolutely accurate. Eventually the two introverts warmed up to each other and became very good friends. Despite mutual interest, their relationship never developed further.

Friend & Colleague, Age 29, Human Acting Chief Medical Officer, USS Ronin Alix & Quentin were in the same Neuroscience class at the Academy where they became friends. Now, they collaborate on research pertaining to Shared Subconsciousness while giving each other a hard time.

Strained Acquaintance, Age 27, Rodulan/Human Security Officer, USS Chin'toka Alix met Daniel "Mac" McGillian at the Academy. They had a couple of classes together. Alix politely rebuffed Mac's romantic pursuits a few times, never giving him a reason. They completed final training simulation together and graduated Starfleet together before being assigned to the same posting on Denali Station.

Budding Friendship, Age 25, Human Tactical Officer, Denali Station (LOA) Alix Harford met Alex Forsyth at the award ceremony held on Denali just after she arrived on the Station. Since then the two women have spent a little time together and are quickly becoming friends.

Ex-Boyfriend, Age 31, Human Doctor, Earth Alix Harford met Colton Wentworth during her second year of medical school when she was 19 and he was 23. They dated for two years until Colton chose to put his career first and accepted a job that took him far away after graduation.

Family

Father, Age 51, Human Farm Owner An Earth traditionalist who owns a farm in rural Texas. He always saw the potential in Alix and pushed her to pursue science and medicine after the two of them were in a shuttle accident the summer before Alix started high school. He does not condone space travel but was secretly proud of his daughter's accomplishments and sense of adventure when Alix joined Starfleet Academy.

Mother, Age 50, Human Farmer's Wife An Earth traditionalist and deeply religious woman. She helps her husband run a farm in rural Texas. She has always kept her daughters close, raising them with antiquated values which put emphasis on a woman's appearance and ability to care for a husband and children. She does not condone space travel and was very upset by Alix's decision to join Starfleet. They have not spoken since.

Sister, Age 22, Human College Student Abigail is the oldest of Alix's three youngest sisters. Ever the hot-head, Abigail was the sister to pick fights and try to boss everyone around. She had an especially conflict heavy relationship with Amanda, the next youngest sister. Abigail enjoyed music more than her other sisters and, when she wasn't fighting with her sisters or their friends, could be found practicing and mastering several musical instruments under their mother's instruction. She is graduating college soon as a concert cellist.

Sister, Age 20, Human College Student Amanda regards herself as "the second middle child". The most like their mother, she was favored by Renae Harford which probably contributed to her tense relationship with her two elder sisters. Amanda lived with her nose in a book or spent her time on "appropriately feminine activities" often cooking, cleaning, and sewing alongside their mother. She is now in college studying to be a teacher and has a steady relationship with a boy her mother very much approves of.

Sister, Age 17, Human High School Student The baby of the family, Abigail holds a special place in Alix's heart. Being about a decade older than Abigail, Alix helped raise Abigail and the two were nearly inseparable until the moment that Alix left for medical school. Allison is a bright young girl with a forceful charismatic personality. She is often called "the boss of the family". Allison has no need to please her parents and though she hasn't seen or heard from her oldest sister in more than four years, Alix is her hero.

	Background ⮟

Alix Harford was born on Earth to human parents, Alex Dane & Renae Stephanie Harford. The oldest of four girls, she was responsible, hard-working, physically fit and tall like her father. She enjoyed sports and science and did not enjoy girly things like her much smaller, much more feminine sisters. Her parents raised her with “old Earth” values and did not approve of space travel. Preferring instead to live their lives “as humans were intended”.

Alix excelled in school but never fit in socially, perhaps due to extreme anxiety that manifested after a near-fatal shuttle accident in her teen years. That was when she'd fallen in love with medicine. Watching the doctor who happened to be on board calmly treat and stabilize the injured passengers, including Alix and her father. Later she found out that the doctor on board had been a retired Starfleet medical officer.

After the accident, Alix's parents insisted she meet regularly with a counselor for trauma therapy. Her counselor was a half betazoid/ half human female who regularly used her abilities to usher Alix through her feelings. Ever since, Alix has had a dislike for anyone poking around in her mind, invading her private thoughts.

After 4 years of medical school, a year of working in medicine on Earth, and 4 years at Starfleet Academy, Alix Harford was still an anxious perfectionist who preferred science to social situations. Practicing medicine was the only time she truly felt calm and in control.
