Faith Blake, Brekkian/Betazoid toddler, is the daughter of the deceased Sky Blake and adoptive daughter to Lieutenant Sabor (missing). She resides with her little brother and her grandmother on Brekka - it is being decided if she is to be separated from her brother as per her parents wishes, of if she is to remain with him.

PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personality

  • Faith is quite a playful child. She enjoys having lots of attention, especially cuddles with her mother and father, but becomes overwhelmed when in heavily populated areas, to the point where she won't let go of her caretaker or will refuse to take her hands off of her ears (possibly in order to block out the noise).
  • Now away from her mother permanently, Faith gets little amounts of sleep. She is constantly in a distressed mood, and becomes over-tired quickly.
  • Was quick to pick up Golic Vulcan than what she was Seritonian Brekkian. Thus, her primary language was classed as Vulcan. Despite this, Faith is capable of understand the majority of which is spoken to her in Brekkian, but is only able to answer simple, short-answer questions in turn.

Family

Mother

Sky Blake at 27 years old.

Is the child of Sky Blake, previously a Starfleet officer before deciding to resign. Faith is basically a 'clone' of Sky, as she has no father. It is reasonable to believe that Sky and Faith will become entirely different people - it is also presumed that Faith will not develop the same level of telepathy. Sky was very attached, very protective of her daughter before her death, to the point where she will remove herself from duty just to spend more time with her. Sky was concerned that she didn't spend enough time with Faith - under the belief that Faith's learning Golic Vulcan quicker than her Seritonian language was due to Sky's "negligence" - she was later corrected by Sabor.

Sky and Sabor both went missing for two months after the destruction of the medical facility the family were staying (having given birth to Faith's brother, Ayeden). It is unknown if Faith saw or had contact with her mother during this time. On stardate 239106.02, Sky was found deceased in Kekorna forest - cause of death reported to be a brain aneurysm.

Father

Is the adoptive daughter of Lieutenant Sabor. While she is not biologically his, Sabor treated her as if she was his own, regardless of his OCD and germophobia. He looked after her when her mother is unable to, and played with her whenever he could.

Biologically, Faith does not have a father. It was originally believed that she was conceived between her mother and Alixis Ozera, but new evidence (the fact that Ozera is unable to conceive) proved that this wasn't the case. Doctor Ba'Eli, Sky's doctor at the time, had a theory that the Camarian sun's radiation, with the help of a virus that the USS Mercury 'contracted', made Sky's natural reproductive cycle change somewhat.

Sabor had a major role in Faith's life, and was one of her primary carers alongside her mother. Sabor was also a major influence in her language, much to her mother's distaste. He was due to marry Sky before the two went missing.

It is unknown Sabor's current whereabouts, and whether or not Faith had had any contact with him - there is, however, a note he left in the Blake residence the day he was classed as missing. Despite finding Sky deceased, there has been no sighting of Sabor.

Brother

Ayeden Hamish Blake is Faith's little brother. Born on stardate 239104.15, Ayeden was separated from his parents two days after he was born, and is living with his sister under their grandmother's care.

A note from Sabor, left in the Blake residence the day he went missing (with Faith and Ayeden) stated that the two siblings needed to be separated immediately. The note didn't specify why. It was signed by both Sky and Sabor.

Godparents

  • Hannibal Tiberious Parker
    • Parker was asked to be Faith's godfather by Sky soon after Faith was born. Parker, when he is around Sky, acts like her father. He is very protective of both mother and child. Many of the Embassy crew was under the impression that Faith was Parker's daughter - this is incorrect, as Faith was conceived before the physical relationship between Sky and Parker developed.
  • Hannah Martinez
    • There for Sky's pregnancy and Faith's birth, Hannah was there for much of Faith's newborn life. Hannah is Sky's best friend - her first one on the Ronin after having a love/hate relationship with her - and Sky trusts her with her life. Should anything happen to Sky, Faith is to be taken straight to Hannah, regardless of the distance between them. Faith knows Hannah quite well, and Hannah knows Faith. Sky considers her as Faith's second mother.

Others

  • Angelo Valentino
    • Although not actually related to her, Valentino has been a main part of Faith's life. She took an immediate liking to the Marine, and simply did not care when he almost left Sky's home at the Embassy with Faith accidentally when he came to "visit". Valentino cares about Faith as if she was his own child.
  • Chase Valaine
    • A close friend of Sky's, Faith became well acquainted with Valaine during her time on the Avandar and the Vigilant. Her mother was good friends with him, and Chase watched over Faith when her mother inexplicably collapsed during the Vigilant's final shore leave.

Personal History

Born on the USS Thunder during a red alert, Faith was placed in her mothers arms just as the red alert subsided. Many officers were under the impression that Faith's birth was "jump-started" by a rough landing, but it was later found that it was just pre-term labor. She was born one month early, but still perfectly healthy, regardless on everything she went through in her mother's womb.

When her mother was taken off of maternity leave, Lila, her grandmother, took care of her, as did Hannah when Sky was busy with something else. But, eventually, Sky would start taking her to work in her sling.

Soon, Starfleet gave Sky an offer to take the Chief of Security position on the USS Avandar, and now that Sky reflects on it, she's glad that she did, mainly for Faith's wellfare. The Embassy, shortly after Sky's unannounced leaving, was attacked by Klingons. As communications were down, there was no confirmation as to how they were doing.

When Sky and Faith arrived on the Avandar, Faith was taken to the ship's day care facility, as Sky needed to get to work straight away. Since then, Sky had decided that she will spend the day there when she's working - which proved to be a good decision, especially when there were ship emergencies. Faith went with Sky and Sabor when they were transferred to the USS Vigilant.

During shore leave, Sky resigned her commission, and they had little choice but to spend time on the planet Zakdorn IV in Prak Zel with the rest of the crew while the Vigilant was undergoing repairs. In an attempt to hopefully allow Faith to adapt to colder weather, the small family constantly went out to explore. The final time Sky and Faith went out, Sky brought Chase Valaine - of whom carried Faith through an increasing snow storm to shelter. Sky passed out after a long conversation, and Chase took it upon himself to look after Faith until Sabor arrived - holding onto her even then, until Sabor took a tired Faith home. Shortly afterwards, Sabor was transferred to the USS Vigilant-A. Having already decided that they'd need to hitch a ride to get to Deep Space 6 and settle, it was agreed that Sky and Faith would tag along.

The Blake family were on Brekka, Sky having given birth to the newest member, Ayeden. When the medical facility of which they had been admitted into exploded, the two siblings were somehow found at the Blake family residence, 100kms away in Kekorna, under the care of their grandmother, left with a note that the two needed to be separated immediately. It is unknown whether or not Lila will follow their request, or if the two siblings will remain together.

PROFESSIONAL INFORMATION

Education

Faith spent much of her time at the USS Avandar's day care when Sky and Sabor were on duty. She excels in learning visually, while verbal-based learning is not her strong point at all. Had been home-schooled whilst on the USS Vigilant and USS Vigilant-A by both Sky and Sabor. For now, her education has taken somewhat of a backseat as the family deals with the death of her mother and her father being missing.
