Relationships


Dimitri Popov

Irina had an extremely close friendship with Dimitri Popov, a neighbor boy in her apartment complex growing up. The two were inseparable and were closer than siblings all through their childhoods. Out of school they both enlisted in the marines together and were only separated when Irina was hand-picked for a long-term exploration mission on the USS Columbia. Dimitri is the father of Irina's daughter Katya.They were unofficially married over a long-range comm relay with plans for a real ceremony on Irina's return.He died of old age in 2232 waiting for Irina to return and was clearly long dead when she finally made it home.



Katya Pavlova

Katya Pavlvoa

Katya Pavlova was born on April 2, 2170 and went into cryogenic stasis on November 11, 2172. While Katya slept during the entirety of Irina's 219 exile, she did age in stasis at a vastly reduced rate, emerging at the physiological age of 4 instead of two. Initially behind her age group developmentally upon awakening, Katya has caught up quickly and is now an extremely bright 6-year-old, though one raised with some very odd values by her highly unusual mother.

  • Mother: Tatiana Gutsu, Deceased
  • Siblings: Brother Anatoli Pavlov, Sisters Ekaterina and Liliana Pavlova. All deceased
  • Children: Katya Pavlova, age 223 (physiological age 6)
  • Marital Status: Widowed once. Currently in an active Romantic Relationship.


History



Early Life


Irina was the oldest of four children, and while not the best of them academically, she was always the athlete of the family. From gymnastics in her childhood years to track, polo and rugby as a teenager, Irina was always an overachiever when it came to any test of strength, endurance and coordination. All of her coaches in the various sports hinted at olympic-level talent, if only she would stick with a particular sport long enough. Sadly, Irina usually got bored with an activity far too quickly to truly become world class. It was only the violin and shooting that she stuck with for any length of time. The violin because her father, a violinist in the St. Petersburg symphony would likely kill her if she quit, and shooting because she liked the noise and staying interested just involved increasing distances, reducing time or introducing movement to her targets.

After high school her only real career options were military service or music, and while a talented violinist, she wasn't talented enough. She and neighbor Dimitri Popov joined the Earth Defense Marine Corps and attended the academy together. Her marksmanship skills quickly attracted attention at the very highest levels of the marine corps, such that she was pulled from the academy a year early and sent to the newly formed Starfleet Academy for special cross-training as a naval security officer, hand-picked by Commodore Vittorio Moretti, the commanding officer of the USS Columbia for his historic five-year exploration mission.

Starfleet, 22nd Century


Pavlova and Popov by this time were romantically involved, and unknown to either of them, Irina became pregnant on their last night together before Columbia's departure on July 20, 2169, the Columbia's mission not coincidentally starting on the the bicentennial anniversary of man's first walk on the moon. At only 22-years-old and a newly commissioned 2nd Lieutenant, Irina was the only marine on Columbia, and was her chief of security.

Baby Katya was born 9 months into Columbia's mission. Two years later, Columbia emerged a battered hulk on the other side of the Aurix II wormhole, and lacking life-support, Commodore Moretti sent an away team to the only planet in range with even a remote possibility of sustaining life. Katya along with most of Columbia's crew went into stasis, while Irina was part of that away team to the planet Kjenta II, barely L class on a good day.

Immortality, at a High Price


Irina on Kjenta II

Irina spent 219 years on Kjenta II. The planet, much like the Ba'ku home world, has special properties that affect living creatures on the surface. The away team members all found themselves getting younger, if such a thing was possible, until they stopped at their physical prime. For Irina who was only 24 at the time, she simply remained the same age. Doctor Treng and Commander Lennon, both in their 40s, reverted to their mid 20s. Nobody ever got sick, and wounds and injuries, unless immediately fatal, healed at a shockingly rapid rate.

The away team was stuck on Kjenta II because of another side-effect of the unique planet, which was the heavy ionization layer in the atmosphere that sucked all power from all equipment, to include their shuttles on the way down. Crash landed without working weapons and communications, the away team had to fight off barbaric savage tribes descended from the advanced humanoid species that had, 4 centuries earlier wiped themselves out in an apocalyptic war.

Essentially immortal while on Kjenta II, the brilliant scientist Dr. Treng set them to work on finding a way home. It took almost 120 years, but she finally designed and built an antenna capable of penetrating the ionization layer and sending out a distress signal. The USS Miranda in 2293 responded to that distress signal. For three weeks the Federation ship orbited Kjenta II and through Treng's advanced antenna collaborated with the Columbia survivors to devise an escape strategy. Sadly, nothing they tried could penetrate the atmosphere, and so under orders from Starfleet Intelligence not to leave that monofilament antenna or any evidence of it, USS Miranda fired on the antenna, overloaded its generator (killing six of the Columbia survivors) and left Kjenta.

Another century passed until in 2390 Treng built another antenna, but this time she also built a transporter and converted an old missile into an exit vehicle. Whoever came in response to their distress signal this time would find them prepared, with two escape plans and a very healthy distrust of the Federation. USS Discovery-C, herself badly damaged from the Aurix II wormhole, responded to that distress signal.

Rescue


What followed was a veritable bloodbath as Treng tried to take control of the Discovery's away team, ultimately getting killed by those she tried to control. Of USS Columbia's crew, nine remained alive on Columbia herself in deep cryo-stasis while 26 were originally on the surface. At the end of the struggle, only four remained alive from the original away team, two who escaped the planet in the rocket during the power struggle, Commander Lennon who was severely injured just before the final battle, and Irina Pavlova, who had challenged Treng prior to Discovery's arrival and found herself aligned with Discovery's crew more out of necessity than choice.

Following her return to Earth, the other three members of Columbia's away team to Kjenta II were studied, poked, prodded, tested and evaluated. Like the Ba'ku before them, Federation scientists were very interested in how a normal humans were not only alive, but young following 219 years on the surface of Kjenta II. All three later disappeared and were found dead with their organs harvested. Irina avoided that fate only through the intervention of Captain Waltas and Commander Amman of the Discovery-C, who doctored the records on the Columbia so that she was indicated as going into stasis.

Starfleet, 24th Century


Irina was immediately cleared for duty (CPT Waltas and LCDR Amman of USS Discovery-C did some corrective work on her personnel file, making it appear as though she had been in stasis the entire time) and was assigned as a marine on the USS Vigilant. Her adjustment to the 24th century is a work in progress, made more difficult when Vigilant's marine detachment was transferred from the ship and Irina was laterally commissioned as a Lieutenant in Starfleet and assigned to the security/tactical department.

Security/tactical isn't particularly difficult for Irina as it is perhaps the one branch where little has changed over the last two centuries and change. Weapons and shields are more powerful and ships are faster, but the basics remain the same. It is only in computers where Irina has trouble, and in the year since rescue she has become more and more proficient, though a special use profile is required to shift LCARS displays to monochrome due to her complete color blindness.

Since serving on Vigilant, Irina has developed something of a reputation for being sarcastic, a bit hot-headed, and frequently getting injured. Of course, she is always at the very front of whatever dangerous situation is present and usually "On Point", so in a way it is to be expected. She has also shown a rather healthy fear of doctors and counselors, but at the same time a very protective nature over her shipmates. Irina has even managed to make a few friends, particularly Lieutenants Udas and T'Mihn in science on the Vigilant, and later at Duronis Embassy Lieutenant Commander Parker and a renewed and deepened friendship with Colonel Waltas.

More recently Irina learned about time travel and how James Kirk traveled back in time to 1968 and later to 1986 successfully. She has since been studying and planning how she can herself go home to 2171. She understands the ramifications, how this might alter the timeline, and is torn between her desire to return to her proper time and the understanding of the damage this might cause.

Abilities and Disabilities


Irina off-duty

Irina suffers from many side-effects of her long exile on Kjenta II. Kjenta II was a high gravity planet with unusual and harsh light from the nearby red dwarf Kjenta star. She is completely color blind and highly light sensitive due to the complete fusing of the cones in her eyes. She also suffered fairly severe nerve damage to her left side that while mostly repaired, was not and never will be perfectly so. This results in severe cramping of her left hand if she tries to do any fine motor control and has made it almost impossible for her to play the violin without significant pain. Irina is also exceptionally strong, the benefit of living 2.2 centuries in almost three times earth normal gravity. She has essentially the same level of physical strength as a strong Klingon or an average Vulcan. Lastly, she is VERY rough around the edges after 220 years living on essentially a post-apocalyptic wasteland of a world. She holds many normal customs in quiet disdain and was sarcastic, borderline insubordinate during a recent inspection of the USS Vigilant.

Irina is an expert sniper, with expert something of a modest understatement. She has perfect hand-eye coordination and is still the only non-synthetic life form to ever be recorded with a perfect 100% marksmanship score on all Starfleet, marine and even Marine Force Recon/Sniper qualifications. Simply put, Irina can hit anything with any weapon so long as she can see it and it is within the weapon's range. She remains the only human to ever, repeatedly hit birds in flight at 500 meters using iron sights with projectile or beam weapons (she can do it with both, unfailingly). While the federation does not and never did condone assassination, Irina was trained nonetheless to take head-shots at hyper-extreme range; a skill she put to excellent and frequent use on Kjenta II, including an unconfirmed kill at over 5,000 meters.

Her innate and natural shooting talent was reinforced during 219 years on the harsh planet of Kjenta II, where the USS Columbia away team were under constant attack. Irina's verified record was a head shot with a .50 calibre sniper rifle at 3.6 kilometers with a telescopic (optical) sight, while a longer shot at 5.3 kilometers though unconfirmed, would the longest sniper shot ever recorded with a hand-held projectile or beam weapon by an organic life form in any environment, let alone in high gravity.

Strangely and out of sync with her history and branch, Irina is also extremely gifted at math. While she only has the normal 22nd century Marine Academy Bachelor of military science degree, she studied advanced mathematics under the legendary Dr. Lan Ngoc Treng during her 219 year exile on Kjenta II and is essentially equivalent to a doctor in applied. mathematics. She also learned, by necessity, basic mechanical, electrical and civil engineering working on the many construction projects geared toward departure from Kjenta II.

Recent Service


More recently Irina was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and reassigned (and laterally transferred back to the Marines) as chief of strategic operations and ;after as Chief Tactical officer at Duronis II Embassy and USS Thunder. Upon arrival she was reunited with now Colonel Tyr Waltas, the ship captain who had rescued her from the purgatory of Kjenta II. He again played the role of savior when he prevented her from performing the slingshot maneuver in a stolen runabout in an attempt to return to the 22nd century, and then helped her cover her tracks.

In the time since arriving at Duronis, Irina has felt her grasp on reality slowly slipping away despite the best efforts of those close to her to try and keep her grounded. Whether it was PTSD after more than two centuries on high combat alert or depression finally setting in after coming to an understanding that she will never see anyone from her past other than her daughter Katya, Irina has slowly been descending into madness in the years since her rescue.

Following nearly a year at Duronis II Embassy, Irina has been reassigned as the chief marine officer on the USS Excalibur-A, and the next chapter in an extremely long and unusual life.

Medical File


Irina's ordeal on Kjenta II is not listed anywhere on her personal or medical file. That file was edited and doctored by the captain and chief of security of the USS Discovery-C and indicates that rather than spending 219 years on the surface of Kjenta II, Irina Pavlova is reflected as spending those years in cryogenic stasis with her surviving shipmates. Her medical file still shows her height as 5'8" and weight as 118lbs despite an actual decrease in almost 2 inches and an (invisible to the eye) increase of 100lbs, all in increased bone density and muscle density and definition. Her colorblindness and permanently dilated pupils are amended in Discovery's report reflecting damage caused by a fault in her failing stasis tube on recovery.

Irina has, to date, been extremely fortunate to find sympathetic ears of her commanding officers on the Vigilant and Duronis II Embassy who allowed her to maintain her secrets and continue uploading data from a physical taken on the Columbia in the year 2172.
