Personality

Andy is a kindhearted individual, with a love of humor and people. Despite that, he can be quite anxious at times. He's gotten just enough help to be able to handle Starfleet on a decent level. Plus space from his family, the independence to do things, has helped quite a bit too. But it still lingers significantly when he's not completely distracted by everything else. He doesn't really do formality of speech unless he needs to. He sees no reason not to be kind and immediately treat people like he's always been friends with them. Always one to get out a joke on the fly. As such, he doesn't take himself overly seriously outside of situations where that's necessary. But he also uses that as a means to mask how he sometimes feels so as to be as far from truly vulnerable as he can. He doesn't always know who he is, but he's trying his best to try to figure it out.

  • Positive traits: Friendly, funny, generally encouraging, great listener, protective, hard working even when he really struggles, loving, entertaining, smart, very generous and giving, helpful.
  • Negative traits: Sometimes unpredictable, anxious, almost surprisingly self conscious, private in a way you don't expect, spacey and forgetful, can become somewhat erratic when he's not in control of himself.

    • Father: Will Monroe
    • Mother: Anna Monroe
  • Siblings: Eva Monroe (eldest sister, age 27), Laini Monroe (slightly older sister, age 24)

Relationship details


Name Relationship Description
Anna Monroe
Mother Born 234507.29, age 55. Andy's relationship with his mom is a little bit complicated. He of course loves her. And as much as she's able, she cares for him, too. She cares for all her kids. But she was quite a bit of workaholic growing up, and still is. So there's always been an emotional distance that he can't quite seem to cross with her most of the time. He hopes the distance from joining Starfleet ends in a "distance makes the heart grow fonder" feeling when he finally visits again.
Will Monroe
Father Born 234210.01, age 58. Similar to his mother, his relationship with his dad is also a bit complicated and distant. Both parents workaholics who worked out the understanding they both valued work, and work ethic. Sometimes above other things. And they were fine with the time apart they often had from it. Both Andy and Will hold familial care for one another as much as is possible. But he's even more distant with his dad than his mom.
Eva Monroe
Eldest Sister Born 236802.04, age 33. Andy is only somewhat close with her. At the very least, he's much closer to Eva than he is with either of his parents. Due to personal reasons, she has made a purposeful bit of distance from the family to figure herself out a little better, but she stays in touch with both Andy and their sister Laini. When she can. Andy misses her a lot, but respects that she needs some space for now. He needed the space, too. Conversation is sometimes awkward between them after enough time has passed, but they figure it out. He knows it won't be like this forever.
Laini Monroe
Older Sister Born 237105.13, age 29. As far as immediate family is concerned, Laini is Andy's best friend and confidant. He would, and does trust her with anything and everything. Since he joined Starfleet, they don't talk as much as they used to. But when they do talk it feels like they never stopped. She's one of the main people he misses from back home.

Interests and skills

  • Hobbies: Music, being active, learning new things, reading, spending time with people.
    • Specific music skills: Acoustic guitar, and singing. He's decently good at the guitar, and very good at singing. Though he's a little shy to show as much off, despite having wanted to be a famous musician at some point in his childhood. He probably does something with it in holodeck situations on his own time. Would probably feel a bit embarrassed if anyone caught him doing that.
    • Specific active skills: He's very fit, he works out. Good at self defense, and some form of martial arts. He enjoys a good spar sometimes when the situation for it strikes. He's always striving to improve that skill with others who are maybe more experienced. Also has very minor experience in certain gymnastics things. He's quite proud of being able to do a really good handstand, he's practiced a lot on that one. He can also dance.
    • Specific reading favorites: He really likes a good adventure story. Sometimes a mystery or even a horror novel of some sort. On the low-key he does enjoy trashy romance sometimes, he finds them a little funny, but you won't usually get him to admit to that one up front. This goes for both normal books, and holonovels alike.
  • Misc. skills: Puns. He can, and often will, make a pun on the fly. Also, he is fluent in English and ASL having grown up in a family that was primarily Deaf and hard of hearing. It has also lead him to be decently alright at reading people's body language at times, seeing as body language is part of the grammar of signing. He can also draw alright, though he's not professional in any capacity. But he has enough skill to be considered not bad at it.
  • Misc. facts: He has synesthesia. He associates musical sounds with colors, which is part of what makes him quite good at music because he can associate those sounds and pitches with colors to help keep him on pitch, key, and notes.

History

Andy was born and raised on Earth, in Maryland to Anna and Will Monroe, and is the youngest of three children. He hasn't always gone by Andy, but it was a change that was eventually adjusted to when he came out. Before that, his family life wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, some difficult things causing anxiety, stress, and unintended, but very notable, strain in familial bonds. With time, and conscious effort on everyone's part, they worked on it as best as they could, actively trying to be better than they'd been. Relationships were mended to a degree, though maybe there'd always be distance in some ways. He'd always be closer to his sisters, than his parents and other parts of his family for a number of reasons. It was a process. It's still a process.

His family was, and still pretty well is, very settled on earth. His father a doctor, and mother a therapist of sorts there. His sisters chose also to stay on Earth for the time being, though who knew what the future held in the end.

Andy had always been curious about space, stars, and about meeting new people he wouldn't otherwise have the chance to know and having new experiences. Learning new things. He was the more immediately adventurous one of the bunch, and very social in nature despite the anxiety. His family was ultimately supportive of his wants and tried to help him where they could, or at least where he'd let them.

He applied to Starfleet Academy as soon as he was able, and was more than happy to be accepted. And happy to be on his way to being more independent and going places, however that happened.
