| PERSONALITY |
|---|
She is extremely ambitious, persistent, determined and somewhat stubborn. She is a hard worker, often to the detriment of her social life, though her growing friendships and budding relationship are beginning to change that. Being a woman on Ferenginar, she has been a people pleaser to a fault for as long as she could remember. She carries herself with a sense of hard earned pride, viewing herself as something of a trailblazer for female Ferengi officers in Starfleet.
Strengths
She was raised in a world of commerce and trade, leaving her diplomacy and speaking skills finely honed. She is data driven and results oriented. She puts all she has into everything she does and doesn't settle for anything less than spectacular. Spending as much time as she has travelling the galaxy, her linguistic skills are sharper than most people her age. She is eager to please everyone in her life and is fiercely loyal. She is very good at pretending she is okay, even when she's not.
Weaknesses
Despite outward appearances, Lephi is plagued with self doubt and internal criticism. Most of the time she can keep these things under control, but certain stressors and situations can cause her to spiral. She holds herself to rigorously high standards, sometimes to her own detriment. She has a bit of a quick temper when she feels she's been slighted, and often resents people she feels do not work as hard as she does. Often times she is guilty of taking herself too seriously, though she definitely knows how to have a good time in the right situations. Spending her whole life making deals and negotiating with every alien she came across has honed her ability to manipulate others, and she often uses it to get things she wants
FULL DETAILS: Personality Profile
Background
Lephi was born to a cunning father named Frego, and a subservient mother named Nophi on an unsurprisingly rainy day in Ferenginar on stardate 237206.20. She was the second of three children that Nophi had gifted to her cold, distant husband in the hopes of reigniting their passion. Her father was absent for much of her early years, traveling the Alpha Quadrant on business. As a result of his inconsistent presence she is much closer to her mom, causing Frego to blame himself for Lephi's perceived failures.
This internalized anger caused him to overcompensate trying to make up for lost time. He began taking her on his freighter as soon as she was old enough to travel without getting space sick. It was here that Lephi really prospered. She met many different species during her travels throughout the quadrant. Practically growing up on the ship meant that she became very familiar with the layout and feel of it. When something broke, she was the one the crew came to rely on for a fix.
Because of her position as a fixer, and later as the fixer, she built a wide range of contacts for procuring ship parts and making profit. She has a lot of friends scattered around the quadrant, the older ones tend to view her as a daughter.
Career History
From a young age, she was a freighter captain. She traveled all over the Alpha and Beta quadrants doing business with many species who needed her spare parts, her repair skills, or her salvaging skills. Once she turned 18 and completed the attainment ceremony she applied to Starfleet Academy. Focusing her studies on component engineering and a newfound passion in programming, she completed 60 credit hours to fit in both specializations.

Relationships

Jarred Thoran Mentor Captain Thoran was Lephi's first CO following her assignment to the USS Atlantis upon her graduation from Starfleet Academy. Though her time under his fine leadership was cut tragically short just after the Atlantis crew transferred to the Chin'toka, she had spent many a shift learning from and growing under his tutelage. Though he is gone now, he forever lives on in her heart, and indeed in the hearts of the entire crew. Following his death, Lephi dove further into her work determined to make him proud posthumously. |
 |
Elizabeth Snow Partner From the first moment Lephi laid eyes on Liz, she was smitten. Bonded in the trauma they faced together on Illara Prime when they were kidnapped, they have since tried and failed to have several dates but have moved on to a more official status regardless. Lephi has met several members of Elizabeth's family and although there is no love lost between Liz's Stahma and herself, she did enjoy her brother. |
