Family History
Robert Falcon joined Starfleet during the Dominion War, believing at the time he was human. After a short time serving on the USS Freedom-A, the crew was trapped on a barren planet. During a Jem'Hadar attack, Robert took a hit. That damage allowed him to discover the truth, that he was an android. He continued in the fleet, after some time building his 'kids'. They were a pair of AIs named Beta and Delta.
After many years in the fleet, then Commander Robert Falcon was transferred to Starfleet R&D. Now having the resources he needed, he built humanoid bodies for first Delta and later Beta. They renamed themselves Alice and James respectively. Alice went on to join Starfleet herself, while James preferred the life of a freighter.
Alice, feeling a similar call as her father, created Rho. Initially, like her mother, Rho had the form of a small, flight-capable disk. She went to a ship CO'ed by a friend of the family, where she did what she could to help the crew. At one point, she helped save the ship from a computer based attack, downloading herself into the ship's main computer to combat it. Her disk was lost in the process. With Robert's help, Alice built a humanoid body for Rho. Unlike her mother and uncle, Rho decided to keep her original Greek letter name.
Personal History
Rho joined Starfleet Academy, focusing her studies on engineering. She did well, graduating high in her class and making a few friends. Her finial training at Starbase 118, however, has given Rho much to think about. What seemed like a rescue mission suddenly turned into a real life invasion of the Terran Empire from the mirror universe. But it was all stopped by Q, who told Rho that this had been a test for her, and that the Continum would be watching her.
From there, she was assigned to the U.S.S. Constitution as an engineering officer. As the first of her family to be assigned to the engineering department, Rho was greatly looking forward to the assignment. However, she never even made it to Main Engineering. Immediately after arrival, she joined an away mission to Iconia 8, which ended early when the planet was beamed away through means unknown.
She was reassigned to Starbase 118, again to the engineering department. This adds more to her excitement about her assignment. Now, not only is she the first Falcon engineer, but she's the first to be actually assigned to the base since Robert was there some years before. As they prepare to beam over for the change of command, Rho waits in nervous anticipation.
Professional History
Other Information
Rho has the capability of carrying a number of pieces of equipment, with a couple other pieces of equipment built in.
Along with her android physical capabilities and on-board sensors, she has a sensor stealthing system which allows her to appear as a human in most all sensor scans. She also has an armor system built into the layers of her skin. While always in a semi-active state, it can be concentrated in the upper layers of her skin. This gives her excellent defense, but also gives her skin a gray sheen. Rho is also the first in her family to have tool storage space in her left arm. Generally she'll carry engineering equipment, but could easily switch those tools out for science or medical equipment. Each 'kit' is comperable to the Starfleet field kit of its type.
Like the others in her family, she has storage space for a couple other pieces of equipment. In her right forearm she can carry a small weapon called a pulse phaser. In her left flank is an access port where a small shield generator can be installed. While it is ineffective in combat, this shield can allow Rho to get through most standard force fields. However, Robert and Alice taught her to use her head. Equipment can fail, even family tech, but her mind is a powerful tool that is difficult to defeat. Under most circumstances, she does not carry the phaser or shield generator. Her usual preference it to use standard Starfleet technology.
With strengths come weaknesses. To run her enhanced equipment, Rho requires an on board reactor. She ingests food to survive like an organic being. If she runs on only her physical capabilities and sensors, her power cells can provide enough power. With all systems at full, she can go for a couple days without intake. She is also vulnerable to some forms of electromagnetic radiation. If one is encountered, she'll automatically shut down to protect herself.
Theroetical capabilties of her technology are not included at this time.
