Life Before Starfleet

Ayiana Yorval grew up in Najana City on Trill. It was a coastal city notable for its many pristine beaches, and the location of the famed Najana Library; one of the most extensive archives on the planet. As a child, her parents often took Ayiana and her sister Aleesia to the library and museum. It was these trips that first instilled a love of science in the young Trill. Ayiana spent many days playing or relaxing on the beach.

Ayiana initially had no desire to be joined, but she was a very intelligent girl. During her teenage school years, one of her teachers thought she should apply to be Joined, due to her excellent grades and inquisitive nature. Ayiana thought it over for some time, and along with her parents’ support, she applied to the Trill Symbiosis Commission.

With her newfound interest in becoming Joined, Ayiana had to strive harder than ever to prove herself. Reaching adult age (roughly 18 Earth years old) she was accepted to the satellite campus of Starfleet Academy at the Trill Science Ministry. Ayiana would be the first host of Sevo to join Starfleet.

At the age of 23, she spent a few weeks being evaluated under a Joined field docent. She was given a good recommendation and was accepted for Joining. It took nearly a year find a suitable Symbiont to match her with. In the meantime, Ayiana continued her studies at Starfleet Academy. The symbiont Sevo shared a similar interest in the sciences - one of its previous hosts was a chemist. Upon the death of Sevo’s third host, it was transferred to Ayiana at the start of her final Academy year at the age of 24.

Personal Relationships


Cadfael Peters

During her time attending Starfleet Academy on Trill, Ayiana participated in the Academy's Cultural Exchange Subspace Friend program. She communicated regularly with a Human cadet named Cadfael Peters from Earth Academy. The universe had a sense of humor, it seemed, as they were both posted to the U.S.S. Victory within weeks of each other. Their first meeting was during a combat away mission a day into her posting.

Their second mission together - first contact with the Sunak - ended with Peters injured and Ayiana comatose. During that time, Cadfael stayed by Ayiana's side in sickbay whenever he was off-duty, even putting his "good-luck" watch on her wrist. After Ayiana had woken from her coma, Cadfael had declared his love to her.

The pair's newfound affection would prove to be short-lived, however, as Cadfael was transferred to the U.S.S. Darwin on their next mission. Their relationship would remain a close friendship, and they promised to keep in contact.

Janel Tarna

The first time Ayiana met Ensign Janel Tarna, he was surprisingly rude towards her. This attitude continued for some months, though the pair had limited contact. It was not until Ayiana helped rescue Tarna from captivity that the pair began to mend their relationship and start a fledgling friendship.

Tarsii Asmara

Ayiana was immediately impressed with the stoic Angosian science officer when he first came aboard the Victory. He was incredibly logical and very smart. In addition, he had excellent organizational skills which helped Ayiana immensely in running the science department, as she was not very orderly. In the short time she has come to know Tarsii, she has come to highly respect the man for his intelligence and professional skills. Ayiana regards him as one of her most important colleagues and a close friend. Sadly, their relationship was halted when Tarsii was abruptly reassigned to another ship.

Nugra

Captain Nugra has been instrumental in Ayiana's budding Starfleet career. Upon sudden transfer of the Victory's former Chief Science Officer, Captain Nugra decided to promote Ayiana to the position as a newly-minted Lt. JG. While she had doubts herself about the responsibilities of commanding a department, Nugra thought she would do well. He was right. A few months later, Nugra yet again surprised Ayiana by promoting her to full Lieutenant. Ayiana was heartbroken to learn that Nugra would be giving up his command of the Victory, and reassigning most of her crew to a new ship.

While Ayiana may not fully understand the reptilian Gorn, he has no doubt had a significant impact on her life and career. Thus she has come to respect Nugra immensely.

Talia Kaji

Kajiimage.jpg

While Ayiana was comatose following an injury, Talia Kaji used her telepathic abilities to enter Ayiana's mind in an attempt to discover the problem. It turned out Ayiana's symbiont, Sevo, was undergoing a psychotic breakdown caused by a traumatic pre-joined memory. Talia managed to navigate the strange dreamscape of Ayiana/Sevo's minds and managed to mend Sevo's mind; consequently allowing Sevo and Ayiana's minds to rejoin.

This very deep and invasive mental probe left some sort of lingering telepathic connection between Ayiana and Talia, despite the fact that Ayiana, as a Trill, has very limited telepathic abilities. The pair recently discovered that they could "feel" each other in close proximity, and Ayiana's surface thoughts were surprisingly easy to read for Talia, even if she wasn't trying. Bursts of emotion from one was felt particularly powerfully on the other. The two planned to experiment with this newfound connection to see how far they could push this unique relationship. In a way, Ayiana feels this telepathic link has brought her closer to Talia. When Talia was presumed dead on an away mission, Ayiana felt a deep emotional loss, which she couldn't explain at the time.

Professional History

Academy Life


Ayiana had not yet decided on a major by her second year at Starfleet Academy. During a practical exam, her team's experiment went wrong. Ayiana had to take charge of her team and quickly fixed the problem. Afterwards, one of her favorite professors, Professor Inaki - himself a Joined Trill - urged her to study multiple science degrees, knowing she had a knack for math and science; even suggesting command someday, based on her budding leadership skills. He also pointed out that more degrees under her belt was a better chance for being selected for Joining.

Ayiana also kept in regular contact with Cadfael Peters on Earth through the Starfleet Academy Subspace Friend Program.

Service History


SevoArrivesAtVictory.jpg

Ayiana graduated from the Trill campus of Starfleet Academy after seven years of study. She studied and received doctorate degrees in Quantum Mechanics, Subspace Mechanics, and Astrophysics. She spent the summer on a post-graduate training ship, getting hands-on training running a starship while circumnavigating the Federation. Shortly afterwards, Ayiana was given her first permanent posting as Science Officer on board the U.S.S. Victory. She arrived at Starbase 118 circa 239108.23 and spent a couple of days in training. Ayiana finally arrived at the Victory on 239109.01 after a week-long shuttle ride to the remote region where the ship was situated.

Within her first hours on board, Ayiana was assigned to help defeat the imminent Hunger Invasion. During two subsequent missions, Ayiana discovered the science behind the Hunger automaton's communications and developed a means of disrupting their signals.

After the Hunger Invasion, Ayiana was promoted to Chief Science Officer, filling the recently vacated post. She felt she was too inexperienced and shy for such a demanding position, but Commander Nugra felt she could do it. It turned out his instinct was right - while the crew was discussing ways to increase their sensor capabilities in search of a missing Cardassian ship, Ayiana had come up with and presented radical new technologies for probes and communications based on quantum entanglement. However, her designs can not be implemented unless the Victory undergoes a major refit.

Soon after the Sunak mission, the Victory was invited to the Duronis II Embassy, under command of then-Fleet Captain Toni Turner. Their first order of business: a promotion ceremony for Turner and then-Commander Nugra to Rear Admiral and Captain, respectively. In the few months that Ayiana had served under him, she had grown to respect, if not fully understand, Captain Nugra.

The ceremony was followed by a joint mission with the Embassy staff to the nearby planet of Luxis III. She was temporarily assigned to the Embassy's starship, the U.S.S. Thunder-A to help the Laudeans survey the ocean world, and potentially install an undersea research base. The mission was abruptly blown off course by the sudden appearance of a strange anomaly in orbit. The anomaly emitted an extremely powerful electromagnetic pulse-like effect that devastated the Victory. Ayiana, onboard a Bolian submarine ship headed for Luxis III was instead diverted to assess the damage to the Victory. In the end, the ship had to end up being towed back to Sol. At this time, Ayiana was unsure if the Victory would be repaired or scrapped.

While the Victory underwent a major refit at Utopia Planitia, Ayiana took a vacation to Earth, stopping at Spacedock before heading on to San Francisco. She spent the next few days touring the city, learning about Humans and Earth. Ayiana planned to spend the rest of her vacation on the beach, but only managed a couple of days of relaxation before she was abruptly recalled, along with the rest of the crew, for an urgent mission on board the experimental ship U.S.S. Achilles to Romulan space.

This mission saw the crew attempt to retrieve a set of stolen vials of Skyfire Virus, presumably stolen by dissident Romulans. While the away team she was a part of was searching a hidden research laboratory, Ensigns Lael Rosek and Janel Tarna were taken captive by unknown persons. Ayiana was the first to reach the location of their capture, but arrived moments too late. For the next few days, she was furious with herself for hesitation and unskilled in combat. When the opportunity arose to rescue the pair, Ayiana jumped at the chance. Along with Lt. Tarsii Asmara, Ayiana was able to find and rescue Rosek and Tarna, as well as recover the stolen vials of the Skyfire Virus.

Ayiana's last mission aboard the Victory saw her commanding her first away team to the recently rediscovered 23rd-century Starfleet ship, the U.S.S. Arrow. It had disappeared near Tholian space almost a hundred years ago; no one knew why, though the Tholians were suspected. Commander Eerie and Lt. Sevo led separate away teams to the ship, lost in an asteroid field. This was no coincidence, as the Tholians had purposely set adrift the ship in this field due to the field's unique characteristic of blinding sensors. The Victory could not tell that it was an ambush until it was too late. While Ayiana was on board the Arrow, with the help of Crewman Shedet, she managed to download much of the ship's information about its mission and the experimental Tholian web weapon that crippled it and killed the crew - the same weapon now used against the Victory.

Afterwards, Ayiana made it to the bridge of the Arrow to try and gain control of the ship. Unfortunately, the bridge had been commandeered by the Tholian 1st Lt. Takil and his loyal Chakuun soldiers. Ayiana was prepared to attempt diplomacy with them when the Tholian force abruptly left, apparently getting what they came for. To Ayiana's further bewilderment, just before they left, one of the Chakuun soldiers gave Ayiana a datachip containing a copy of the data they found - information regarding their experimental web.

Personal History


Disjoined

While Ayiana was on an away mission to a damaged Sunak ship, she suffered severe claustrophobia inside her EVA suit (the Sunak ship had a water environment). Towards the end, a jury-rigged console exploded, shocking her with large amounts of electricity. This caused her to fall into convulsions and eventually into a deep coma. While comatose, Ayiana experienced a strange and vivid dream. It turned out that the combination of claustrophobia and electric shock had somehow mentally "disjoined" the symbiont Sevo from Ayiana. The two were experiencing a combination of memories and dreams of Sevo before it was joined for the first time.

With the help of the telepathic Lieutenant Kaji, Ayiana discovered that Sevo had been traumatized just before its first Joining. It had always been shy and timid, and did not want to be Joined, but was taken anyway. Sevo was placed in a standard transport container for symbionts, but to Sevo, it was a cage. This caused claustrophobia in Sevo which had been passed to its successive hosts, though it affected Ayiana the most. Sometime during the centuries, Sevo's mind had buried and hidden the traumatic memory; only to be remembered during Ayiana's coma and Kaji's help. Rediscovering Sevo's memory brought the two minds back together; however Ayiana must still live with her claustrophobia.


Tourist

Circa Stardate 239203.13, the U.S.S. Victory had been towed to Utopia Planitia Fleet yards to undergo extensive repairs following the disastrous mission at Luxis III. The crew had been given a couple weeks of shore leave and Ayiana decided to visit Earth. She spent a day visiting the orbiting Spacedock, then several days touring San Francisco. Ayiana learned a lot about Humans and their troubled history. She also visited various science and historical museums, and a planetarium.

Her shore leave was cut short when the Victory crew was suddenly recalled for an urgent mission to Romulan space.

Previous Hosts

Lizara

The first host of Sevo, Lizara was a petite woman with purple hair. She was an exceptional concert pianist, and traveled all over Trill performing concerts, and sometimes playing with orchestras. Ayiana retains Lizara's pianist skills through Sevo, and still occasionally plays the piano in private.

Vereesa

Ayiana's third host was a chemist.
