''''' | '''''Captain Cura Assanti''''' was born on Argelius II in the city of Acura. She was one of twins. Her brother, Kole Assanti was born a minute before her. Cura was raised in the luxuries of Argelian life-style for 5 years before their family moved to Betazed. Cura and her brother were taught by governesses until they both entered Betazed University. Cura excelled in the arts and sciences, while her bother excelled in security and defence tactics. Upon graduation from Betazed Univeristy, Cura entered Star Fleet. She graduated from the Academy and was stationed aboard the '''[[USS Constitution]]''' as Assistant to the Helm/Com/Ops Chief. After serving in that capasity for a few months, it became apparent to her Captain, Xan Hebron, that she would serve better in the science department. She was named Chief of Science and upranked to Lt. jg. She was again upranked to Full Lieutenant a few months after. After several missions, she was upranked to Lt. Commander. She then took on a different role...as Counselor of the Constitution crew. She was then re-assigned to '''[[Starbase 118 Ops]]''' as Chief of Operations. After a few missions she was re-assigned to the '''[[USS Victory]]''' as Chief Science Officer. After a few missions she was again re-assigned to the '''[[Starbase 118 Ops]]''' as Second Officer. The USS Victory was decommissioned. At the "meet and greet" party aboard Starbase 118 Ops in the Gala Hall Beta, terrorists opened fire on the crew, hitting Lt. Cmdr Assanti and Commander Diamond. Commander Diamond went into a coma and Lt. Cmdr Cura Assanti Stone became First Officer. | ||
While stationed aboard the '''[[USS Constitution]]''', she married [[Commander John E Stone]] who was First Officer. Unfortunately after their reassinment to the Starbase the first time, they were separated due to an assignment by Starfleet Intelligence to Commander John Stone. The newly married couple didn't know it, but their separation would last a long while. Cura fortunately, met up with John Stone on Deep Space Nine where they had a few hours to reunite. After checking with the Victory's CMO, Cura found that she was pregnant with John Stone's baby. She was able to keep this secret from other members of the crew during the Victory's decommissioning. | While stationed aboard the '''[[USS Constitution]]''', she married [[Commander John E Stone]] who was First Officer.

Captain Cura Assanti, unknown to many, is also Queen of Argelius II, a position that she secretly still holds. Despite efforts to keep this underwraps, there are a few who know of her status. Senators and Dignitaries from Argelius do keep in contact with Cura from time to time. At the moment, Cura's brother, Kole Assanti is acting King in her stead, but few hardly follow proper protocol, which would be to contact her brother with matters of state. Instead, many seek her advice and imput on Argelian matters to this date. A frequent visitor to the Starbase will be one, Senator Daffazi, who is a member of the Imperial Senate of Argelius II. Another frequent visitor would be Ashely, the Queen's clone, who acts as the Captain in times of great need. To date, there has not been a need for the Queen and clone to switch places as of yet. However, the possiblity does exist. | |||
Captain Assanti also has an adopted son named Mulan. He is Cardassain and is 6 years old now. He was a young baby when she rescued him from a mining camp in Cardassian space when she was on a mission with the USS Constitution. On this mission, Cura was captured, beaten, and raped by a Klingon from the Mirror Universe. When she saw Mulan after being rescued by Paul Diamond, it brought her out of the darkness she had sunken into. So she kept the boy as her own child. She also saved Naomi, also a Cardassain female, and hired her as his nanny. Where ever Lt. Cmdr Assanti lived in her tour of duty with Star Fleet, the two Cardassians were not far from her, residing on bases and moving place to place. | |||

As usual, she was unable to honor that tentative plan to meet with her trusted friend Lt. Sharee, the stations capable counselor. The reason being, was her re-assignment to the uSS Indria-A as the ships commanding officer. | As usual, she was unable to honor that tentative plan to meet with her trusted friend Lt.

The shakedown mission of the USS Indria took the crew across the Neutral Zone and back across to the Azure Nebula where they came face to face with the Darains, the people of the cloaked planet. Although they didn't get to the planet itself, they did attain information on the planetary cloak as well as the location of the cloaked planet. The Darains, who were quite pissed at being contacted when it had been communicated long ago that they didn't wish any contact due to their abilities of teleknesis. The Darians decided to evacuate and take the warning of the Indria crew to heart, that more curious people would come, seeking them out. Being highly advanced more than the Federation, the Darains could have destroyed the small Indria Nebula Class, but it was the experience of the ship's Captain in diplomatic situations that kept them from being killed. Cmdr Assanti was able to negotiate their safe passage. To date, it is unknown if the Darians are still in the Azure Nebula or if they uprooted themeselves and travelled to far off lands. However, during their visit to the large planet sized ship, the crew of the Indria were witnesses to their awesome technology, which far surpassed the Federations. | |||
The Crew of the Indria returned to Starbase 118, picked up new crew and enjoyed a few days of rest while the ship repaired minor problems. Then they shoved off to their chosen place of R&R, which was Lt. Cmdr Fanel's home planet of Gaia. While there, Rear Admirall Rocar came with the USS Constitution and promoted Cmdr Cura Assanti to Captain after the awards ceremony. | |||
So the crew of the Indria shed the Nebula class for the large, formidable Galaxy Class. For Captain Assanti, it is a home coming that completes a circle of service. However, this is just the beginning of a new chapter... | |||
