Chronological History
Pre-Eagle
Charlie spent her childhood aboard her parents' vessel Athena, where she learned from a very young age to repair the older systems. She learned her shapes and colors by identifying various components and arithmetic by calculating for and adjusting power flow to the diverse support systems throughout the ship.
Coming aboard the Eagle
When She was ten years old, there was a fire on the Athena that claimed the lives of both her mother and father. She had been off the ship at the time, running an errand on Lightside Station for her mother. Afraid of being taken away, Charlie hid in the labyrinthine passages of the station until about two years later, when she caught a lift to a nearby Federation starbase (281). While on the station, she saw two men looking around. Presuming they were looking for her, she blended in with a group of school kids on a field trip to the station.
Charlie discovered the men were not actually looking for her, but by then, she'd been swept along through an airlock onto the USS Eagle. One of the children in the group (Katya Pavlova) noticed Charlie wasn't part of the group, and asked what she was doing there. She took Charlie back to her quarters, gave her some clean clothes and some food, but Charlie didn't want to get herself or anyone else in trouble, so thanked Katya and attempted to to sneak back off the ship. Her efforts were thwarted at the Deck 3 auxiliary airlock when she was apprehended by Eagle security personnel, questioned, and escorted from the ship.
Shortly after the Eagle had left the spacedock, the security team was doing a full sweep led by Cmdr. Pavlova. The COS herself found Charlie hiding in a cabinet in the Junior Lounge. The girl was taken to the security office where Blaidd Vescori was assigned the task of keeping an eye on her until the test of the new warp engines had been completed.
During the test of the new engines, the Eagle encountered some technical difficulties followed by a potentially hostile alien species. Vescori brought Charlie along to sickbay to set up a auxiliary communications relay, but was called away shortly afterward. Charlie was left in the charge of Dr. Foster and Counselor Mika.
Mika (or "Mr. Hal" as Charlie calls him) after talking with Charlie a bit, offered to talk to Captain Oddas about finding a way for her to stay on the Eagle. Charlie was incredibly grateful for this kind offer, and vowed to make it up to him some day - just not with cookies, as she "sucks at cooking."
Relationships

Katya Pavlova Friend "You don't smell great." When Charlie found herself swept along with a group of school kids, one of them noticed she wasn't part of the group, and helped her out by showing her the first kindness Charlie had experienced in months. Charlie panicked when she learned that Katya's mother (Irina Pavlova) was the Chief of Security on the Eagle. Not wanting to get her new friend in trouble, she tried to sneak off the ship, but was unsuccessful. |

Hal Mika Friend "I will believe you, Charlie; I’m the counselor; it’s my job." Hal and Charlie bonded in sickbay. She told him that she didn't want to get bounced around in the child services system, and Hal offered to talk to Captain Oddas about finding a way for her to stay on the Eagle. Even though it wasn't a done thing, the offer itself was enough to give Hal an indelible place in Charlie's heart as a good guy. She swore that one day she'd repay him for his kindness. Just not with cookies because she "sucks at cooking." |
