Briefbio
Born and raised in Betazed. Karen was born on July 31st 2368 in the of city Rixx home of the Sacred Chalice of Rixx on the planet of Betazed to Robert Stendhal and Sasha. She has one sibling, an young brother, Tom Stendhal. Her parents had met during university. The mother become a Teacher and the father become a musician. Karen has round blue eyes that are like two gems. Her silky, wavy, very long hair is the color of gold. She is averagely tall and has and has a curvy build. Her skin is light tanned.
The human origin of her name, the unusual eyes and hair colour are to be attributed to the grandfather: Julien Stendhal from Earth/France.
Karen had a peacefully and nice childhood near Lake El-Nar where the family moved, she develop a natural skill of healing and to help people. She also loves arts and music and she helped the brother Tom to join the art school. with him they did also few art exhibition.
When she was teenager she spent a while with a family friend called Roger Reventlov. With the permission of her parents he bring Karen for six months as civilian on the spaceship where he was working as Doctor, she really loved that experience and she decided to study medicine and psicology after that.
She studied medicine and psicology at the university of Rixx and she was about to choose to work for the local hospital in Rixx, but again Roger Reventlov convinced her to try to join Starfleet. As Roger is like an uncle for Karen she followed his suggestion and she joined the academy.
After the Academy her first assingnment is abord the USS Columbia as Conseulor, in this position Karen made her first experience as Starfleet officer.
Unfortunately during the mission on the Esper Colony 'Safe Harbour', the USS Columbia didn't make because the attack of the Ya-Grhans.
After that Karen has been transfered aboard the Starbase 118 where she got at first the position of medical officer. In 239705 When the denobulan Counselour Malko decided to leave the station, Karen took her counselor job back.
Her office aboard the Station was looking more or less like her one aboard of USS Columbia, or at least in her mind it was. A large sofa next to a smaller one with a tea table, few chairs, a big holographic painting representing the pink lake of Mitzawal with the forest cherry of happiness in flower. A desk with lots of pads in a corner.

Counselor Karen Sthendal of Starbase 118 had always been a dedicated and compassionate member of the crew. Her empathy and commitment to her role had made her an invaluable asset to the starbase. However, in stardate 239709.22 her life took an unexpected turn when she contracted a rare and mysterious alien disease during a diplomatic mission to an uncharted planet.
The disease presented itself with unusual symptoms that baffled the medical team on the starbase. It became clear that traditional treatments wouldn't work, and Karen's condition deteriorated rapidly. In a desperate bid to save her life, the medical team decided to place her in a stasis chamber and transferred back to Betazed, a highly experimental procedure that had never been attempted before.
For nearly two years, Karen remained in stasis, her body suspended in a state of suspended animation while the medical team worked tirelessly to find a cure. Her absence was deeply felt on Starfleet, and her colleagues, friends, and especially her patients missed her presence and guidance.
After what felt like an eternity, the medical team made a breakthrough. They discovered a treatment that could counteract the effects of the alien disease, albeit slowly. With cautious optimism, they began the long process of reviving Karen from her induced coma.
Karen's recovery was a gradual and arduous journey. She spent almost an entire year in a state of semi-consciousness as the treatment slowly but steadily reversed the damage done by the disease. It was a period of intense physical and emotional challenges for her, as she had to relearn basic skills and cope with the overwhelming sense of disorientation.
Throughout this challenging time, Karen's resilience and determination shone brightly. She drew strength from her desire to return to her role as a counselor and help others as she had been helped. The support of her , family, friends and colleagues played a crucial role in her recovery.
Finally, after nine months of slow but steady progress, Karen regained her full consciousness and physical strength and she was able to travel back to earth to visit her grandad Julien Stendhal to rest at .
