Relationships

Shar'Wyn Foster: They met during a crisis aboard the Atlantis and have worked very closely with one another to cure the Atlantis and the crew. They made fast friends and now Gwen is developing feelings she's never had for anyone and it is now common knowledge that the two are in a developing relationship.

Background

Gwen was born and raised in Hong-Kong, China on Terra. Her father was a wealthy American CEO of a major Fashion industry (Gardener Designs) and her mother was a top-rated international super-model. Her parents were never around much as she was growing up, and Gwen was raised mostly by her Chinese nanny, Ying-Li. Gwen's father, Ryan, was assassinated on her thirteenth birthday right in front of her, and she has never looked at her birthday the same way again. Though she and her father were never close he meant a lot to her. Gwen's mother, Stella, sold Gardener Designs for a large amount of money and then died of a brain tumour right after her eighteenth birthday leaving Gwen with her parents combined fortune. After her mother's funeral, Gwen flew to San Francisco to attend Starfleet Academy and she doubled majored in Engineering and Helm/Navigation. She took an elective learning Klingon during her final years at the Academy.

Ying-Li nurtured Gwen's love of machines at an early age and it was because of Ying-Li that Gwen headed for Starfleet in the first place. Gwen decided on her first day at Starfleet Accadamy that she wanted to do more then fix ships, but to fly them to. Though Gwen is better at fixing ships, she is a very capable pilot and will take the helm in an emergency if the need arises.

Personality

Gwen's personality is mild-mannered, timid, and unusually cheerful. She is always trying to be polite, even when off duty. She tries her best to stay professional and is sometimes unusually formal.

Gwen has serious intimacy issues that stem from her fear of dying in front of someone she cares about. Because it's hard for her to truly be more then friends with people, she is still a virgin and has never been in any kind of intimate relationship.

Mental issues:Gwen has two mental issues that she knows of, the first being a Loneliness complex, she has a hard time finding and making friends; and the second being an event triggered PTSD, traumatic flashbacks from her father's death haunt her birthdays and reinforce her fear of dying in front of someone she cares about. To this end, anyone who can get her to truly enjoy her birthday will have accomplished an impressive feat indeed.

Hobbies: Gwen spends her spare time tinkering and creating holo-programs because she thinks its fun and sometimes they have more practical applications.

Random Facts: Gwen sometimes takes random hints and jokes literally and turns them into reality via holo-programs. Gwen has developed a strange fascination for arranging, planning, and executing parties.
