Ayiana Sevo: Difference between revisions

In addition to the standard-issue Starfleet furnishings, Ayiana's quarters were heavily decorated with astro-related paraphernalia, such as meteorites and crystals. Paintings and photographs of nebulae and planets hung on the walls. She has a small stone statue of Lessia, an ancient Trill goddess of knowledge and wisdom; not out of religion, but more as a reminder of her scientific dedication. Ayiana also owns a small electronic keyboard she plays from time-to-time. A perch sat in one corner for Tana, her beloved pet [https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Fenza_bird fenza bird]. Her work desk was the most personalized. Above it held a large photo of the planet Trill, with a metal sculpture of the Trill emblem, Ayiana's Academy diplomas, and official Starfleet photographs of {{ma|Jadzia Dax}} and {{ma|Ezri Dax}} also hung nearby. Dax - particularly Jadzia - had been idols of Ayiana since she was a child, and she greatly influenced Ayiana's interest in the sciences. She kept the photos by her desk to often remind herself what Jadzia would do in her situation.

<p>Ayiana is quite introverted, and doesn't socialize very often, except for official ship functions. When she does partake in public places, she tends to keep to herself. She has never had any romantic relationships, except for a very brief one with [[Peters,_Cadfael|Cadfael Peters]] aboard the ''Victory''. However there have been a few people who have managed to break through her shields and form friendships with Ayiana; or at the very least gained her respect. </p>

* '''Parents:'''

<h3>{{LCARS-bar-left|History|100|COLOR=#4682B4}}</h3>

<p>Ayiana was raised in the standard Trill setting. She had two loving parents and a younger sister, Aleesia. She would often spend her time on the beach or visiting museums and libraries. In fact, it was her parents' encouragement that led Ayiana to the sciences.</p>

<p>At first, she had no desire to be Joined, but was eventually persuaded to apply early in her Starfleet Academy career. Normally, this was too late to catch up on the work required, but Ayiana had always been an intelligent and studious child, so her grades and accomplishments were nearly on par with the Symbiosis Commission's entry requirements.</p>

<p>Following her childhood schooling, Ayiana was a particularly spirited student. She excelled in the sciences, as that had been her fascination since childhood. One exception was Biology. She just didn't like it; all that squishy stuff. Ayiana also excelled in math and technological disciplines such as computers and basic engineering. Her pitfalls included subjects such as Federation Law, History, and combat. Ayiana took more than the minimum four years to graduate, as she studied dual specializations in Quantum Mechanics and Subspace Mechanics, necessitating an increased course load. She eventually graduated within the top third of her class.</p>

<p>After a post-graduation summer cruise aboard a training vessel, Ayiana was assigned to the fleet based out of Starbase 118. Her first assignment was to the ''Intrepid''-class ''[[Victory|U.S.S. Victory]]''. She was thrown into the middle of a vicious struggle for the galaxy. After several months and the sudden departure of the ship's Chief Science Officer, Ayiana found herself as a Lieutenant in charge of the department.</p>

<p>She continues that role on the much larger ''Sovereign''-class ''[[USS_Gorkon|U.S.S. Gorkon]]''. Ayiana is finding it difficult to keep up with the increased supervisory load of the ''Gorkon's'' science department, as it is over three times larger than the ''Victory's''; one which Ayiana was struggling to maintain as well. In February of 2395, {{nrank|Admiral|Quinn Reynolds}} offered Ayiana the role of First Officer, which she accepted.</p>

<p>Much to her surprise, Ayiana has acquired an impressive array of awards and commendations in her short time in service. They range from a Purple Heart, to several Lifesaving Ribbons, and an Innovation Ribbon.</p>

<h3>{{LCARS-bar-left|Previous Hosts|170|COLOR=#4682B4}}</h3>

 

<p>The first host of Sevo, Lizara was a petite woman with purple hair.  She was an exceptional concert pianist, and traveled all over Trill performing concerts, and sometimes playing with orchestras. Ayiana retains Lizara's pianist skills through Sevo, and still occasionally plays the piano in private.</p>

<p>Sevo's second host was a male Trill named Camen. He was a highly-skilled chef who ran a chain of five-star restaurants.</p>

 

<p>Ayiana's third host was a chemist. She specialized in Material Chemistry, mostly developing new metamaterials and nanoparticles. Ayiana utilized Vereesa's knowledge of different materials to start a fire. She died in 2365 of old age.</p>

<p>A huge shock came to Ayiana in 2393 with the realization that she had a prior host in between Vereesa and Ayiana. Toran had fought as a foot soldier in the Dominion War, but suffered with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder for the rest of his life. He eventually died in 2388, with Sevo being implanted in Ayiana. Most of Sevo's memories of Toran are still buried, so it is currently unknown how or why Sevo had suppressed the memory of him. Sevo's mind created false memories and distorted timescales, making Ayiana think Vereesa had died in 2388, when in fact she had died 23 years prior. Ayiana even remembers the implantation procedure, seeing Vereesa on the table across from her. She is currently at a loss to explain this false memory.</p>

 

<p>A few days after being trapped in an alternate universe, Ayiana met that universe's version of Toran. He had not died as he did in Ayiana's universe, but instead had survived aboard various starships after the fall of the Federation to the Dominion. After its destruction, the Triumphant's crew were rescued by the Gorkon. It was then that Ayiana met her other self. To see the face of a former life was shocking, to say the least. After explaining herself to Toran, and discussing what happened to him in Ayiana's universe, the two slowly struck up a loose friendship. During the climactic battle to return home, Ayiana was gravely injured by boarding Jem'hadar. Toran had come to her rescue and managed to patch her up long enough to receive medical help. After returning to her universe, Toran decided to temporarily retire from Starfleet and return to Trill.</p>

<p>After a stint as a civilian on Trill, Toran returned to active duty, joining the newly reformed 451st Ranger Platoon on the {{USS|Gorkon}}</p>
