Commander
Joseph Washington
|
|
|
- Rank: Commander
- Duty Post: Commanding Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 56-year-old Human male
- Birthplace: Detroit, Earth
A decorated veteran of the Dominion War, Joseph comes from a long line of Starfleet officers going back to the original Earth Starfleet. Though his ancestors thought of themselves as explorers, Joseph's experiences during the Dominion War fundamentally changed the way he viewed the purpose of Starfleet and the larger Federation. He became a strict military officer, determined to hone discipline among those under his command because he had seen far too many friends and colleagues die on the front lines and the harsh frontier. Now, he faces his greatest challenge, being reassigned to Starfleet's Invicta Expedition, a supposed return to Starfleet's exploratory roots to renew the Federation's soul and perhaps his own.

Lt. Commander
Tristam Core
|
|
|
- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: First Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 40-year-old Rodulan male
- Birthplace: Myiron, The Western Gate of Tikan, Rodul
A member of a highly telepathic species and raised within a culture that believe violence is never a viable course of action, Tristam joined Starfleet to experience working with more advanced technology and specialized within Components Engineering. On his first tour of duty, he was involved in a serious accident aboard the USS Pioneer, almost costing him his left leg and damaging his telepathic lobe beyond medical repair. The accident changed him more than he cares to admit, now more judgmental and critical towards others, though in recent times, he's grown to be gentle and even overprotective.

- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Intelligence Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 38-year-old Al-Leyan female
- Birthplace: Uz Sabahnuor Archipelago, Leya-I
Growing up in a strict and conservative society, Rune always tried to conform and follow what had been determined to be her "Branch". However, as hard as she tried to fight it, she was still different. That difference was frowned upon by other Al-Leyans. When she was 16 she was forced to undergo "Attitude Readjustment Treatment," or so she thought that's what it was. Now, in Starfleet, she is faced with many challenges, one of which is breaking completely away from her people and their beliefs. Not an easy task when someone else has other plans for her life and will stop at nothing to get her to return home.

- Rank: Ensign
- Duty Post: Diplomatic Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 35-year-old Kerelian female
- Birthplace: Island of Tanis, Kerelia
Ceilidh is the only surviving child of the third set of triplets to be born to her parents on Kerelia, a planet where one set is the norm. From a young age, her imagination was always turned on, and she spun the most interesting stories, that was until it was finally discovered that Ceilidh was empathic: a level 5, very rare on her world. Like her parents, Ceilidh wanted a life where she could explore other worlds and cultures, and Starfleet seemed like the best fit. Trained as a counselor and now serving as a diplomatic attache, she’s either mediating or trying to improve her knowledge of other cultures (especially their weapons history) during her free time. Some call her spacey; she likes to think of herself as unique.

- Rank: Ensign
- Duty Post: Helmsman
- Age/Species/Sex: 39-year-old Human male
- Birthplace: Cestus III
Previously a security officer, Ryan is ambitious, warm, sometimes dark and very impatient. He often states his point of view succinctly and can be blunt to the point of impolite with those he is uncomfortable around. He is meticulous and is known to take far too much time on a project in an effort to make the end product perfect.

Lt. Commander
Alora DeVeau
|
|
|
- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Chief Science Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 34-year-old Human female
- Birthplace: Earth
Born on Earth, Alora grew up the youngest of five and also the only girl in an affluent family. Although talented in the performing arts, science particularly called to Alora, which spurred her to apply for Starfleet Academy and study botany and zoology with a minor in languages. She is a happy, optimistic person who enjoys other people, and while events may trouble, she generally bounces back, particularly with support from others. Although friendly with almost anyone, there are only a few people she feels she can confide in completely.

- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Historian & Archaeological Specialist
- Age/Species/Sex: 42-year-old Vulcan/Romulan female
- Birthplace: Unknown
Abandoned at birth by her Tal Shiar mother, T’Lea was raised by her strict Vulcan uncle. Born of two worlds and never feeling as though she truly belonged to either, T’Lea led an angry, violent adolescence, in which she rebelled against authority figures, the Vulcan culture, and anybody that generally looked at her the wrong way. Indulging in unbridled violence and the pursuit of power had nearly ended her young life when an entire planet sought her death. The idea of Starfleet started out as a safe haven to hide from her enemies, but soon turned into a second chance at living a better life. While she still struggles with the concept of being a “good guy” she has found a reason to try in both her personal life and work, but that is not to say that she doesn’t like to cause bodily harm to others now and then.

Lt. Commander
Raissa Moonsong
|
|
|
- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Chief of Counseling
- Age/Species/Sex: 36-year-old Human/Betazoid female
- Birthplace: Leech Lake, North America, Earth
Raissa grew up on Earth and due to her Betazoid grandmother was a touch empath. She originally desired to be a medical doctor, but the pain experienced by her patients became too much for her. She switched her focus to psychology and psychiatry. Unaware of certain quirk of her genetics, Raissa played host to several hundred minds of the Community. Her telepathic/empathic abilities spiked to T6. However, once they had left her body, her ability did not return to its normal range, and she remains a T/E 6. She now limits her interaction with others to block out other thoughts as well as to avoid reading people inadvertently. Despite this change, she remains a skilled counselor and always easy to talk to.

- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Chief Engineer
- Age/Species/Sex: 43-year-old Romulan/Human female
- Birthplace: Romulus
Lluneh (Luna) was born on Romulus but raised on Earth after her human ambassador father convinced her Romulan mother to defect. Not knowing this, she enjoyed a happy childhood until her father was murdered by the Tal Shiar. Frustrated at her brother's inability to prove the truth, she took it on herself to trick, sneak, or break in to do so. Caught one too many times, she joined Starfleet as an engineer, where her ability to creatively look at a problem was put to more positive outlets. While outgoing, friendly, and a bit of a prankster normally, she feels personally responsible for any discovered problems around her.

- Birthplace: Betazed
While Iris and her family were on a family vacation on Risa, Betazed was captured and conquered by the Dominion causing the family to relocate to the planet Galor III, where her mother was employed. Living so close to the Daystrom Institute helped Iris hone her natural talents in engineering and inventing. When she finally came of age, she applied and was accepted into Starfleet Academy where she was accepted in the Components Engineering program, with a minor in holodeck programming.

- Rank: Lt. Commander
- Duty Post: Operations Officer
- Age/Species/Sex: 35-year-old Android (female appearance)
- Birthplace: Classified
Originally recovered from an archaeological dig, Pandora was accidentally activated by researchers at the Daystrom Institute in 2380, which is one of the reasons that she looks the way she does. Since then, she has joined Starfleet, spending most of her time acting as an engineer either aboard ship or as part of the SCE. Curious about both the world around her and the people that inhabit it, even if the latter usually leave her perplexed, Pandora is always on the lookout for ways to improve her knowledge and understanding. She could probably use more work on her social interactions, however, as she's been described as having the people skills of a sledgehammer.

- Rank: Lieutenant JG
- Duty Post: Chief of Security
- Age/Species/Sex: 32-year-old Bolian male
- Birthplace: Bolarus IX
Hanar had a normal family life and childhood, and when he became of age, he joined his parents on their freighter for a number of years before choosing to break from tradition and join Starfleet, selecting security/tactical as his major. His favorite hobby is the culinary arts, having studied this on the side, and he soon became quite the accomplished chef, creating many recipes, both pure and mixed, from different worlds. This also served to satisfy a related love - eating, hence his slightly portly appearance. Despite this, he is remarkably fit and agile, necessary for security duties. His only shortfall is he lacks a significant other, which he would like to remedy, sooner than later.

Commander
Roshanara Rahman
|
|
|
Born away from the Kriosian homeworld, Roshanara's birth parents gave her up for adoption, and a human couple took her in, named her, and raised her back in Lahore, Earth. Often mistaken for a Trill due to her Kriosian spots, she joined Starfleet because of her interest in starship design, an interest that has not come without a cost as she was gravely injured early in her career from a major accident that required lengthy rehabilitation. She exhibits a dry and perhaps even cruel sense of humor. Previously a chief engineer, she employs a rather direct and assertive style of command and is working on her anger management.
