Biography / History

Still shaken from the events of Frontier Day, Wil’s sudden death threw Robin into a long spiral of terror, angst, and regret. For a long time, she was on ‘autopilot’ – doing what was expected of her, following the plan, and trying to find ‘normal’ again.

By the end of 2401, Hopper was the de facto First Officer of Amity Outpost, continuing to serve there under Rivi’s replacement, her old Captain from the USS Wall Street: Captain Sh’Torn, and in early 2402 she and Nathan married hastily. Robin continued in her role as First Officer aboard Amity until 2409, when the Hirogen civil war concluded and the Federation Diplomatic Corps and Starfleet determined the Outpost’s mission had failed; Amity was scuttled and the Idrustix Colony was ceded to the Talaxians.

Shortly after their return to the Alpha Quadrant, while they awaited new postings, Robin and Nathan learned they were expecting. In 2410, while they served as First Officer and Chief Engineer aboard the exploration & border patrol vessel, USS Venture, their daughter, Alexis, was born. Robin did not take well to domesticity or motherhood, though, and was back at work as soon as possible.

When the Venture was reassigned to the Federation’s border with the growing Lattice Alliance in the early 2420s, the CO insisted all families would be reassigned to less risky postings – but Robin and Nathan, now in their 50s, decided it would be best to retire their Starfleet commissions; Nathan teaching at Starfleet Academy and Robin taking a role at the Daystrom Institute, working on top secret temporal mechanics projects.

In the decades that followed, as the war against the Lattice Alliance raged out of control, she became increasingly obsessive about her work; This obsession led to increasing tension at home, which eventually peaked when the Alliance made their first major strike into the Beta Quadrant, and Robin’s homeworld, Theta VII, along with other frontier worlds, was destroyed.

In 2442, Robin and Nathan have separated and her relationship with her daughter, now a Starfleet Commander, has fractured – but she remains dedicated to her work, believing that it may hold the only key to preventing the Federation’s demise.
