Professional History Insignia Rank Dates Posting Assignment Ensign 238909.29 - Present USS Tiger-A Medical Officer Backstory/Timeline File:Aribellesmile1.png Aribelle has the sense that, as said by her mother, "connects her to the fabric of space and time." She is not always aware, but her human side makes her slightly pessimistic and afraid to make lasting friendships. 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 and affect 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. Specialty: Infectious Disease Notable Relationships Photo Name Details File:Lelian1.jpg Lelian Lelian is Aribelle's mother. She sometimes tries to pass off as her sister. She was twelve Terran years (estimated year of birth 2281) when she was on the SS Lakul in 2293 and briefly visited the Nexus. She has passed her innate sense of time and understanding to her daughter, who doesn't always understand what she "feels". She met Tristan Tagren while on vacation on Betazed in 2338. He was a fresh faced Ensign, and she was many years his senior, but that did not matter. Their love lasted through the course of 30 years. They joked about having a "May/December" romance. Aribelle is her, and Tristan's, only child. She was devastated after Tristan's passing shortly after Aribelle opened her first art exhibit. File:Tristantagren.jpg Tristan Tagren Commander Tristan S. Tagren, born November 11, 2314, originally from Auckland, New Zealand, is the deceased father of Aribelle. He was a Commander in Tactical on the USS Valkyrie. He passed away shortly after contracting a deadly illness in 2369. The details on the matter remain classified. Aribelle was close to her father. His death was sudden and traumatic for her. File:PaulQuinn.jpg Paul Quinn Paul Quinn, born April 15, 2336 in Charlotte, North Carolina, is a retired Federation Captain who now works for himself by taking on oddball jobs or assignments that the Federation simply does not have the time or interest for. Aribelle and Quinn have known each other for just over twenty years, having met in 2367. Secrets, Notes and Spoilers File:Aribelle4.jpg Aribelle will go through changes as she completes missions. She will better understand herself and others. What does that mean? For her, it means that, "the future is always uncertain." For a woman who focuses so much on mortality, this was one of Aribelle's driving factors to become a Physician. It was to not only research disease but to give others the best chance they have with loving care. She prides herself in good bedside manner. Prefers to be called "Ari" versus "Belle". Has a large stone ring, a heirloom given to her by her mother. This ring is made from Enaria stone and is one of the few El-Aurian artifacts that lasted past the invasion of the Borg. Worked as a locum tenan while she attended the Academy. Hates Gagh. She has a physical response whenever she sees or smells it. Is terrified of the Borg or anything Borg-like. She has had nightmares of them ever since she was a small child.
