Template:Sullivan Ensign Renae Sullivan, a 3/4 Betazoid - 1/4 human hybrid, is currently a security/tactical officer aboard the USS Drake. She is also the half sister to Rowan Sullivan.

Stats

• Full Name: Renae Ulivia Sullivan
• Age: 22
• Date of birth: Stardate 236601.30
• Place of Birth: Earth
• Telepathic status: T4 (Telepathic/Empathic Scale)

Personality

Renae was a very conductive cadet, but was known to make a lot of mistakes when it comes to her mental ability. She cannot help herself to the fact of using her mind in situations like away missions. At times, her commanding officers keep her from doing away missions, but realize that if she does not learn, she would not finish her Starfleet training.

Renae is very sure of herself, but don't underestimate her. She can be disruptive at times, and can also be difficult, but she is a very dedicated officer not matter what she does or doesn't do. She has a belief - which she thinks she can fix later on in her life of Starfleet - that everything she does wrong, makes things easier for everyone in the future.

Renae is fairly serious but is also playful (some of the cadets in her classes claimed that she was a bit of a flirt). She enjoys sitting with friends when ever she can and going to the holodeck. But be cautious when it comes to Renae; when she gets angry (which is not very often), she enjoys to shoot at things on the Holodeck. Sometimes the safetys are off so be careful when you need to speak to her at this sort of time - you could be the person she is shooting at.

To sum Renae up, lets just say that she has a slightly random personality.

Appearance

• Height: 1.83m (6'0'')
• Hair Color: Honey Blond
• Length of Hair: Ten centimeters past her shoulders
• Eye Color: Midnight Blue
• Build: Muscular, athletic build
• Carriage: Renae is usually ready to take on anything, but she is also relaxed.
• Voice: Renae's voice is in the middle of any tone, but she makes a very promising soprano

Manner

• Quarters: Renae prefers quarters with a view of the stars. She usually keeps her quarters as clean as possible, but at some points, she just can't. Renae also doesn't really own much, so you could say that her quarters are basically empty. You can usually find photographs of her and her brother or her and one of her friends at the Academy, but never anything of her other family.
• Favorite Room: The Bridge of a star ship.
• Habits: Renae only ever starts the day with a cup of quadriple sugered tea. She also has a habit of getting into other peoples minds.
• Mannerisms: When Renae reads, it is difficult to get her attention because she is so into the book. When a situation is difficult, you find that she is trying to keep the crew's mood easy-going by throwing a joke around or re-assuring a member.
• Hobbies and Pastimes: Renae enjoys a good game of 'Target Practise' with a holographic hand phaser or rifle on the holodeck. She also visits the dreams of her brother or missed friends (don't worry, she asks first).
• Ambitions and Goals: Renae wants to find out the true cause of her fathers death.
• Achievements in Life: Graduating Star Fleet Academy was one of the big achievements.
• Disappointments in Life: Renae is only disappointed about never being able to see her sister-in-law or going to her brother's marriage.
• Physical Limitations: She has no serious physical limitations, but her back can go out now and then

Likes

• Renae likes being on duty whenever she can, and would oppose to a commanding officer if they ever took her off duty for some reason.
• Even though Renae won't admit it, she does enjoy seeing her brother on a star ship when he isn't meant to be there.
• Renae communicates with her Academy friend, Sky Blake.

Dislikes

• Renae has had a hate for those who decide that they want to hurt any of her friends.
• If she can avoid it, she prefers not to read other officers files. She rather talk to them than read about them.

Temperment

• Renae is serious when it is time for work but when she has her time off, she is very easy going.
• Also; Renae didn't get the childhood like everyone else. It wasn't tramatic, but it was certainly short. It is important for her ship counsellor to know about this as at some points events can trigger an immature response such as being a little too scared or being overly angry.

Mental Problems

• If Renae has her mental boundaries down and is exposed to the thoughts of all the crew on board a ship at once, if she has an argument with her brother during a dream that turns physical or if she is invaded mentally, Renae is most likely to get a migraine or faint
• She also fears any hospital or sick bay due to what happened to her when she was six years old (she had become fairly sick and had to go to a hospital. The staff there were not very caring or gentle with her, which is what caused her avoidence to them now. "They literally treated me as if I was dirt.").
• Renae is very sensitive to the Borg - even the word 'Borg' can cause her to stop sleeping for a week.

Family

• Spouse: None
• Children: None
• Parents
  • Father: Jonathan Sullivan (deceased)
  • Mother: Ulivia Sullivan (deceased)
• Siblings: Rowan Jonathan Sullivan
  • Niece: Katherine Angela Sullivan (adopted by Rowan): It's unknown if the two will see each other again.

Non-Biological Family

• Broxley Sommer (Caraadian; Currently on Nanaria): Otherwise known as "Uncle Broxley", he is not in any way related to Renae. He and Ulivia had a long-term relationship, ending up in Ulivia finding her 'Imzadi' in Jonathan. Broxley was heart broken, but he felt no anger toward Jonathan, and the two became good friends. After Ulivia died, he and Jonathan started to raise Renae. Broxley knew that Jonathan was having another relationship, but wasn't aware that the result was Rowan. After Jonathan died, Broxley took the two in his care for a year or so, and told Renae that he couldn't take care of them every single year. The two had to move back to Earth to see Ulivia's old old friend.

• Laura Demek (Betazoid; Currently missing): She was the second one to have them, and she was also the one who was with Ulivia when she was captured by the Borg. Renae and Rowan were with her for a short time, until Laura told them to move on - it had become too much for her. Renae and Rowan have not seen her since, and were told that she had been filed as missing.

• The Blake Family (Brekkians/Betazoids; Brekka/StarFleet): Rowan and Renae were welcomed into the Blake family when Renae had met Skyleena. Rowan, Taylor Ivashkov and Katherine had lived with them for a long time before they decided to transfer to StarBase 118.

• The Jackly Family (Humans; Earth/StarFleet): The Jackly family had allowed Rowan and Renae to stay with them for as long as they wished. The youngest son, Joe Jackly, has a crush on Renae, but it didn't drive Renae off the planet. Instead, she flirted with him until he gave up.

All others are very minor, and only allowed Renae and Rowan to stay with them for a short time.

The Bond of Brother And Sister

Rowan and Renae are two siblings that are very close. One can't leave the other behind if the other is hurt or in trouble.

The two both taught each other. They taught each other to be quick, strong and undectable. Quite frequently, they smuggled themselves on starships to go to other planets and be taken care of by friends.

One of their favourite places to go was Nanaria, where the two were welcome to do what they pleased in the underground cities as long as they didn't disrupt the mining operations. There, they made their own competitions, where they swung or jumped to roof tops. The two were unstopable together, and most of the locals enjoyed betting on who won some of the races.

But when Rowan first got his telepathic abilities, the two learnt that Rowan was not as lucky as Renae - Renae had something that they called 'mental boundaries', while Rowan wasn't so lucky.

It took them a while to work out how to fix it, but Rowan went crazy.

Renae copped everything - threats, abuse, fights, until she had enough, punching him in the face to knock him out. The worst thing about this was that what he said was true. He may not have been in his right state of mind, but he never lies.

Uncle Broxley was the one to work out that he had Jonathan Sullivan's geans when it came to Rowan's frame of mind. He gave him a drop of alcohol while he was unconsious, and Rowan was fine the next day. He didn't remember anything, only what happened before he got his telepathic abilities. Renae chose not to tell him what he had done to her, and pushed the memories to the back of her head.

Life continued quite well, and the two parted ways when Rowan thought he was ready. He knew what he needed to do to keep himself healthy and sane. The two parted ways - Renae going to Earth, and Rowan heading back to Nanaria to see Uncle Broxley.

The two see each other regularly.

History

Renae was born on the 30th of January, 2366. Where on Betazed, she doesn't remember at all.

When Renae was very young, her mother taught her very basic abilities like pushing buttons to power things, as Ulivia was a very good Tactical officer. This is part of the reason why Renae is a very good Tactical officer, because she was taught basic things early on in her life.

But on Stardate 236909.20, her mother, Ulivia Sullivan, was assimilted by the Borg. No one knows how or why, but her father claimed that her mother was taken away delibrately - something that Renae believed and what made her mentally afraid of the Borg ever since (if Renae hears the word Borg, that thought of her mother - even though she was at least three years old at the time - being Borg sends her emotional and mental state down hill) For a short time, she had dreams that her mother was a tactical officer on a Borg ship, because at the time, Renae had thought that they had ships like normal Alpha Quardrant ships. She was told that this was wrong by her mother's ex-boyfriend, Broxley Sommer, who Renae had started calling Uncle Broxley.

Regardless of her mother, Renae continued life with her father. She was trained to outrun anything at a very young age, even though she didn't have to. She suspected that her father wanted to keep her safe, so that she could out-run the Borg or anyone else. But two years later on stardate 237101.01, her father, Jonathan Sullivan, was killed in a shuttle accident when Renae was with some of his friends. The cause of the accident was unknown, but Renae believes that it was no accident and was delibrate. This is what made her want to join StarFleet as a Security officr.

Two months after her father's death, Renae found out that her father had a relationship with someone who gave birth to Rowan Jonathan Sullivan. The woman looked almost exactly like Ulivia Sullivan, and it was as if her father tried ot re-create her. He had failed, as Vera Jones had a very angry attitude.

Practicaly getting Rowan dumped on her hands, Renae raises Rowan with the help of a few friends here and there. They both teach each other to be quick, undectible and unnoticable. They both become very athletic and are able to run pretty fast. Even though they were not criminals, they both put themselves aboard ships on to get to Betazed and Earth.

One of their favourite places to go was Nanaria, where Uncle Broxley lived as he was Caraadian. They were welcomed there, and they weren't as much a problem as the cities were underground and most of the people were miners.

It was when her little brother decided that he was old enough to fend for himself that he parted ways with her with a very difficult good bye.

Renae was accepted into the Academy with wary eyes. But she was befriended by Skyleena Blake, who is currently assigned to the USS Challenger A after finishing the Academy a few months after Renae did.

About two years after Renae's acceptance to the Academy, Renae hears that Rowan adopted a little three year old; Katherine Angela. Then a year later, she gets a letter from Rowan saying that he is getting married. She was extraordanarily happy for him, but was unable to attend the wedding due to her Academy training - she was failing enough classes as it was. Rowan understood perfectly and was not upset that she missed it.

During the Academy years, Renae failed several of her classes due to her idea of a 'diplomatic solution' (her solution to a heated argument is simple - point a weapon a them and see what they do, even though she knows that this is wrong), but still managed to graduate.

Renae remembers every single person in her final exam class: Thomas Patterson, Belinda Desdemona, Tasha Kennedy, Re'Maru, Adusa Threll and Laila Renek. Renae has not had any contact from them, and doesn't expect to.

A day after her graduation of Starfleet, Renae was the second one (Re'Maru was the first) in her final exam class to find out what ship she was to be posted on, and it turned out to the the USS Drake, a Marina Class Starship, as a Security and Tactical officer.
