History:
Johanna Deirdre MacLaren was born in Aberfoyle, Scotland, Terra.
Both of her parents were born there and returned to Aberfoyle after
retiring from long and distinguished careers in Terran Diplomatic
Corps.
Johanna was raised there until the age of 14 when she
was sent to Vulcan
for education. She has a close relationship with her twin brothers, both
of whom serve in Star Fleet. Gavin is a diplomat, and Colin is a medical
instructor at the Academy. She went to
school in Aberfoyle until sent to
Vulcan to learn to control
telepathy and empathy. Johanna had inherited significant telepathic
ability from her Noble House Betazoid grandparents but had no ability
to filter out any feelings or thoughts that assaulted her. As a
result, she shunned human companionship and found groups unbearable
during childhood. Trainers on Vulcan determined that her condition
was complicated by the fact that her human Celtic heritage made
her particularly susceptible to occasional precognition, a
condition usually uncontrollable in humans. She was sent to Vulcan
where she was finally able to learn to block out impressions and
thoughts of others.
Early in her life, she had been drawn into the world of veterinary medicine
since animal minds were simpler and less intrusive than humans. After
her training on Vulcan, she took up humanoid medicine but did
additional training in veterinary medicine. While she had initially
planned to stay and practice in Scotland on Terra, her time on Vulcan
excited an interest in Star Fleet to which she applied after
graduation from secondary education on Vulcan. She was accepted
intoStarfleet Academy where she graduated Starfleet medical with
a specialty in Inter-species Medicine with a minor in veterinary
medicine.
PERSONALITY......
Her quiet, sometimes reserved demeanor results from strict Vulcan
training and an inherently gentle somewhat shy disposition. However,
she has a quick sense of humor and deep loyalty to her friends. She
has great compassion for her patients both human and animal. Beyond
establishing empathy with her patients, both animal and human, she is
extremely reluctant to use or reveal her Betazed tendencies, always
fearing that if forced to exercise them too often, she might lose
control and be overcome by the cacophony of thoughts around her.
Unlike most Betazoids she has a deep affinity and love for
animals,particularly dogs, whose simple emotions she finds soothing
and endearing.
