''Lieutenant JG Tiria Hamasaki'' is stationed aboard the {{USS|Astraeus}} as chief helmwoman.

*'''Name:''' Tiria Hamasaki

*'''Build:''' Normal

Tiria is a short woman, with black hair to her shoulders and green eyes - although her face bears all the hallmarks of someone from the Japanese nation of Earth. A quiet woman, Tiria can often be found reading or doing some exercises off shift - she's often said it helped her think through problems.  

Granted, they did talk her out of Starfleet, as her parents had a distrust of them and most Federation-wide organizations. Still, they supported her choice to join Federation Security as it was a relatively more safe vocation, would let her travel, but was law-enforcement. Her parents were also secretly convinced that she would quit and maybe join the Colonial Coalition Marshals.  

While she was older than a lot of the other cadets, she enjoyed her years at the Academy.  And it was interesting seeing a core-world perspective, as many of her jaunts as Federation Security had taken her to the fringes of Federation space. Now that she has served in Starfleet for a half-year or so, serving in the Shoals has brought new perspective to her job. In six short months, she has already had to help aid or prevent two attacks on planets, and once she was reassigned to a new ship, she had the displeasure of her parents express very strongly that they wanted her out of Starfleet. To the point where they threatened to disown her.

* [[Sotak]] - Sotak is Tiria's roommate aboard the Montreal, due to them sharing junior quarters. Tiria, so far, has only opened a bit to her, but she was the first person aboard the {{USS|Montreal}} about the death of her fiancee.

* [[Chloe Waters]] - Tiria went to the Academy about the same time Chloe did, and as both were in the habit of running, she struck up a friendship with the other woman, and was in the habit of occasionally sending her letters once she was posted to her duty post.

While Tiria recovered after a few major surgeries, the now Detective Inspector retired, feeling unable to go on with her job soon after the trials for the ringleaders who were concluded. (It is of note that very few ringleaders survived to be caught, and investigations into where they got it from were unable to be conclusively proven in court, although Starfleet Intelligence now suspects it was the work of a hidden branch of the Orion Syndicate.). At a loose end, she joined Starfleet, determined to continue to serve others in some manner.

Tiria was assigned to the Montreal shortly before [[Enemy of My Enemy (Montreal)|their mission to help Meridian from a biological attack]]. While she was primarily on the bridge for most missions, she was instrumental in finding a way for the Montreal to reach orbit before the [[Lenik|terrorist in orbit]] could fire on them and lead to additional destruction on Meridian. Little did she suspect that was merely the prelude to the second act of this. While she was able to aid in Meridian, she wasn't as lucky when the terrorist attacked again, in [[Karakka]]. In the end, all she was able to do was barely aid in the efforts to stave off disaster.. but she failed. She watched as the Montreal self-destructed to prevent the freighter from impacting Karakka in at a velocity that would cause planetary destruction. She regarded it as her second worst failure, even though there were very few casualties
