Taking the Excalibur out on a mission of exploration, Kali soon found herself and her ship in an uncharted area of space. An anomaly threatened both their own safety, as well as that of the people who inhabited a station in the sector. The crew around her worked feverishly on a solution, finding one only after exhausting a number of other alternatives. Someone had to fly into the anomaly to close it, resulting in potential death for the pilot as well as anyone else trapped in the folds between that reality and hers. | Taking the Excalibur out on a mission of exploration, Kali soon found herself and her ship in an uncharted area of space.

==='''The Phoenix Rises'''=== | |||
Months after she disappeared, the naked body of Kalianna Nicholotti was found and retrieved by Erscyne Trade Alliance ships. She was brought aboard the station and cared for medically - to the best of the Trade Alliance's ability - while waiting for a representative of Starfleet to pick her up. While she waited, she was given food and drink and allowed to converse with the Prime Captain of the station, who told her what she could of the event that had presumably taken her life. | |||
Dressed in the robes given to her by the Azekyan leader, [[Nicholotti Kalis Return|Kalianna left the Erscyne station with Lt Commander Colt Daniels]]. Though she did not remember him, he certainly remembered her. The ride they shared back to Starbase 118 was packed with conversation that helped Kali catch up on a few things, and made her realize that the process of coming back to Starfleet wasn't going to be easy. She could remember things that could be read from any textbook, and she acted on instincts that had to come from years of experience, but she didn't remember any experiences that lead her to be who she was. | |||
With hope, Admiral Andrus Jaxx pulls rank and demands that she be debriefed aboard the Apollo A under his care. Though unsure of what they were facing, he tries to divert the shuttle she is on to the Apollo before it arrives at 118, but a short layover uncovers more people from Kali's past, including a former crewmember, Lt Commander Brek. Her time aboard the Apollo is short lived, however, as she is quickly tapped to command a mission aboard her former ship to help address the galactic issue of troubling anomalies cropping up everywhere. | |||
In the case of the Excalibur, the only ship welcome, at this point, in the Afehirr sector by the local inhabitants, the crew is sent to explore an anomaly that is poised to take out an entire pre-warp planet. What the crew finds is not what they expect; interference from space faring races that are not associated with the Federation. Kali finds herself caught between the prime directive, and saving the planet, when the anomaly disappears from the area. All that was left to do was to remove the evidence of manipulation and set the planet back on a natural track towards space. | |||
==='''About Trust'''=== | |||
The conclusion of the mission also spelled the need for Kali to step back from command again. Starfleet wasn't quite ready to hand over the ship full time to her, but she was able to prove a great many things in the time she had. Looking towards a potential future command, she takes an assignment aboard the USS Gemini as a medical officer in the interim. Not only can she prove her memory of her medical skills there, but she is able to take some time away from any type of command to really force her past on herself. It is by doing so that she hopes to uncover the memories that are taunting her just beyond the veil of consciousness. | |||
In the meantime, she must also re-gain the trust of those around her, namely the Captain of the Gemini, who had spoken at her funeral just a few months before. | |||
==='''Return from Oblivion'''=== | |||
Kali learns that there is more than one definition of oblivion. While getting lost in the scar may have been one way, getting stuck perpetually behind a desk or in the hands of a diplomatic entourage was another, and both were equally worrisome. And yet, behind a desk and in no control of her own life - it seemed - Kali found herself serving as a federation ambassador. Her diplomatic experience as a captain came in handy and made her good at her job, but it soon became too boring for her. For someone who had always thrived on adrenaline, this life was not capturing her, or helping her regain her memories. | |||
As soon as she could, Kali requested a return to the Trinity sector, where she had served a good part of her career. If there were memories to be found and people to be helped, it would be aboard Starbase 118. So, without any further wait, she set off and met up with the senior staff on Rankor I in just enough time to accept the resignation of one, Commodore Kinney. | |||
==='''Learning to Fly a Desk'''=== | |||
At first, it was a struggle for Kali to get back into the groove of things, especially with the new job and title of Ambassador. Thankfully, she ended up on a tiny ship, the Blackwell, where she could do some real good. Instead of the difficulties she'd faced on 118, where there were meetings after meetings, and a massive diplomatic department, she suddenly found herself on the edge of what was and what might have been. In the thick of things, she might have still been behind a desk, but she was very much knee deep in the middle of things. As she began her journey, [[Nicholotti The Path To The Stars|she reflected on the path]] that brought her there. | |||
Just when she thought she had settled in, changes were coming. In the shadow of the events on Arndall and her work brokering a peace that only came in the wake of an invasion of historical horrors, Kali wondered if she would ever really find her footing. Lost in the transition, and doing what she could to help find a missing away team from the confines of the diplomatic suites, it wasn't until most of the crew was reassigned to the [[USS Columbia]] that she started making headway. Assigned to the Saggitarius Reach, far from Earth, but close to the galactic barrier, the crew mostly wondered what effect the barrier would have on them. Kali took a special interest, getting lost in the view as the ship moved towards its newest area of operations. | |||
It was during one such moments that she suddenly remembered... | |||
==='''Fast Forward'''=== | |||
History had a way of coming full circle. Years of struggling to find her thoughts and memories paid off. In time it was as if the synapses started to fire again and many of the things she had lost started to return. One step at a time, and with the assistance of some of the best medical and counseling personnel in Starfleet, Kalianna Nicholotti had returned to nearly the entire person she was before. Everything seemed to settle back to normal, save her eyes, which remained a bright crystalline blue. | |||
Serving as Ambassador aboard the USS Juneau, and rooting out an attempted murder had apparently caught the eyes of Command once more. Her time on the Juneau was cut short by new orders that brought her back to the very place where everything had started. Orders directed her to Starbase 118, where she would take command of the Nova class starship Resolution. | |||

An adrenaline junkie, Kali enjoys just about any activity that allows her to take a chance and anything that will take her breath away. | An adrenaline junkie, Kali enjoys just about any activity that allows her to take a chance and anything that will take her breath away. | ||
Following Kali's recovery from the Afehirr sector, she continues to love chance-taking, can still play her flute, and enjoys watching the sky - be it from a planet, or the stars outside of the ship - but she doesn't know the history behind why she is this way. | |||

'''[[Cavann, B'Sara|B'Sara Cavann]]''' - Daughter of David Cody, Kali was desperate to make a good first impression on the other part of the 'package' that David had spoken of in the Recovery room the night they spent there together. [[Nicholotti Family Matters|Things didn't quite go as planned]], but eventually Kali found some kind of footing and began to build towards a potentially complete family. With the second disappearance of her father, who had officially adopted her, B'Sara has disappeared from 118 as well. Her current location is unknown. | '''[[Cavann, B'Sara|B'Sara Cavann]]''' - Daughter of David Cody, Kali was desperate to make a good first impression on the other part of the 'package' that David had spoken of in the Recovery room the night they spent there together.

'''[[Jones, Vincent|Vincent Jones]]''' - Vincent was one of the original members of the Bravo Fireteam, the small team of Marines Kali was placed in command of during her first assignment. While they have served together for a long time, they often get reassigned to different places, especially following Kali's death in the Scar. Somehow he always finds his way back to her, now serving as the NCO leader of her personal ambassadorial security team. He's always had feelings for Kali, but Kali's stance on dating Marines has always prevented him from getting any closer. Still, she considers him her closest friend confidant. | |||
