"You're damn right I'm going to fight. I'll fight with a rifle, a tricorder, my own hands if I have to. Someday this war is going to end and I'll fight to ensure that victory is some day very soon."

Dr. Lilavati Chandur, is a civilian psychiatrist currently assigned to the USS Gorkon. Formerly a Starfleet Lieutenant and a veteran of the Dominion War, Doctor Chandur once again resigned her commission after the deaths of Morgan Vance and the rest of the crew of the USS Thomas Edison during the Prometheus Incident. Taking a few months off to write her report about the virus, Doctor Chandur returned to Earth and her family before signing up again with Starfleet as a civilian contractor. Not fully comfortable in her uniform but feeling like she owed something to her old friend, Doctor Chandur took the assignment on the Gorkon as much for her sense of duty as to help herself work through her close friend's death.

Lilavati is a strikingly beautiful woman in her mid-40s whose brilliance both mental and physical has not dimmed with age, stress or trauma.

Tone/Personality

Voice: Feminine but commanding, Lilavati speaks with a distinct cultivated Indian English accent.
Religious Beliefs: Malabarian Catholic. Lilavati has been many things in her time, but has always come back to the Syriac Christian faith she was raised in. Devout, but not zealous, she has struggled with doubt in the past but going through a major interstellar conflict to start a family on the other side has given Lilavati much needed perspective and purpose.

Brilliant, Beautiful, Ambitious and Resilient, these are all words that have been used to describe Lilavati Chandur. To her, these words are titles and mean little and she would rather be remembered for her various deeds and not her individual traits. Mother of three, survivor of the Battle of Ricktor Prime, Carrington Award nominee, Lilavati prefers to be remembered for her truly amazing accomplishments and not words of praise blindly lauded and stamped on paper. She finds challenges and seeks accomplishment in everything she does. From medical school to motherhood, from the battlefield to the operating table, Lilavati has never rested on her laurels and there is much she believes yet to be done.
