Personal and Professional Relationships

  • Hector Adler: One of Ben's first challenges as a science officer was Chief Petty Officer Hector Adler, a mainstay in the Starbase 118 Science department. Years of experience in the department led to tension when Hector saw in Ben a young upstart who would try to change the balance of power within the department. After serving together to rid the station of "Shadows", the relationship became more amicable, but a twinge of antagonism remains. To Ben, it's an opportunity to develop leadership. To Hector, it's an annoyance.
  • Kevin Breeman: Ben has begun to see Kevin Breeman as something of a mentor. Ben's passion has always been engineering, and while a science officer, Kevin's experience in starship engineering provides a natural well of knowledge for Ben to tap. There are subtle similarities to their personalities that interest Ben, who hopes that the two of them will be able to continue to work closely. Kevin helped to facilitate Ben's transfer to Engineering.
  • Katy Orman: Ben's first impression of Katy, before learning of her Orion heritage was that she was ill -- promptly confirmed by Katy vomiting (although the two observations were unrelated). Katy and Ben shared an aversion to the way the shadows that infiltrated the Starbase were dealt with, and Katy welcomed Ben as a new officer and helped Ben become accustomed to the less formal relationships between officers than Ben had learned to expect at Stafleet Academy.
  • Brooke Harphus: Harphus was a colleague and friend of Ben's during his time as Assistant Chief Engineer in Ops and aboard USS Excalibur-A. As a Petty Officer in the Engineering organization, Brooke was in constant communication with Ben, often carrying out the orders and keeping things running when Ben's attention was called elsewhere. Ben's trust in the man's handling of the power systems engineering teams meant that whatever he needed done, he could count on Brooke carrying things through.

Mission History

Missions on Starbase 118: Operations

  • Mask of Sanity: It was no small task to identify and contain the "shadows" that found their way from a docked starship onto Starbase 118. Ben Livingston directed science teams in preventing the shadows from further infiltrating the station and eventually bringing the creatures in-phase to be dealt with by Security and Command.
  • A Matter of Honor: When it became clear that conflict with Klingons was inevitable, possibly culminating in an attack on the Starbase, Livingston assisted with planning and enacting defensive measures. Once aboard the starship USS Victory, Livingston led the Engineering department during Commander Breeman's absence.Preparations were made to the ship, including to a faulty Bussard Collector, but Livingston was injured while making repairs as the first blows were exchanged. Ben continued to assist as best as possible from Sickbay.
  • The Odyssey Project
