Backstory/Timeline
Lelian and Commander Tristan S. Tagren had an on-again/off-again romance that lasted three decades. It was a love that lasted through the test of time, distance and physical appearance. Lelian is a full-blooded El-Aurian woman, who is a free-spirit that corresponds with the Federation and is held in high regard. It has been rumored that she was on the SS Lakul and rescued, having briefly visited the Nexus.
Commander Tristan S. Tagren served on the USS Valkyrie and met Lelian first as an Ensign on shore leave on Betazed. They had a brief fling and from there, they kept running into each other. Lelian told Tristan that she once dreamt of them and they had a child. When she became pregnant with Aribelle, she said her dream had come to reality.
While the love of Lelian and Tristan was passionate, they never married and were hampered by his duty and her “need” to gallivant across the sea of stars. They made a point to be together and bring stability to a growing Aribelle, who pursued studies on the planet they first met: Betazed.
Aribelle became a brilliant painter and sculptor, her work bringing realism and such haunting emotion that it was celebrated by art critics.
Sadness soon followed after her first art exhibit. Word came that her father contracted a deadly illness that did not seem to pass from human to human. It was unclear on the details, but Aribelle became bitter after his death a few months later.
She could no longer paint.
After years of traveling with her mother, Aribelle decided that she wanted to know more about space-bound illnesses, and how it would infect one species to another.
Again, she enrolled into studies, but this time it was Medical School. Her passion fueled her work ethic. Soon, she enrolled into the Academy, completed a Residency, all under the love of her mother and the want to continue her father’s legacy.
