:''Creating a basic bio is quick and easy to do! Wherever you see brackets below, just add in the text you need, replacing things like 'your name' or 'your ship' with the relevant information inside the coding provided, or follow the instructions given - then delete the brackets and any instructions inside them! Once you're done, you'll have a bare bones bio that you can build on using the FBC tutorials, getting tips from other people's bios or adding your own ideas! Click "edit" to get started! Good luck and enjoy!''


<!--Let's start with your sidebar! Take out Harry Kim's info above and put in your own character's information. Valid colors are Red, Gold, Blue, Teal, Violet, Black, Silver, and Green. Remember those colors as we'll be using them for the section headers in the rest of this bio.
Ensign Laura Baxter is currently serving as an Chief Engineering Officer aboard the [[USS Za]].


Not all ranks are available in all colors. Use full rank names (except for Lieutenant JG and Lt. Commander, and Lt. Colonel). Pipstyle can be changed from Default to DS9 or Slanted. See the table later in this bio for examples of each. There is also an extra STO pip set, but it works best in the table rather than in the sidebar.
{{Heading|Appearance|Gold}}
* '''Height''': 5'6
* '''Hair''': Brown
* '''Eyes''': Brown


For date of birth, add a leading zero for single digit months and dates. The sidebar will automatically calculate your character's age as well.
{{Heading|Manner|Gold}}
Laura can seem young for her age, she has always been described as "a late bloomer".  She likes to push herself, sometimes to hard causing her to burn out.
* '''Hobbies''': Hiking, Snowboarding, growing plants (with limited success)
* '''Likes''': New technology, Puzzles
* '''Phobias''': Medical centres, blood
* '''Achievements''': Graduating Starfleet academy
* '''Temperament''': Determined, but can lead to frustration.  Can be under confident.
* '''Office''': Large painting a solar system on one wall (it is meant to inspire as there are no windows in engineering) and a large  potted plant in one corner that has a tendency to wither as Laura forgets to water it.
* '''Quarters''': Separate living and sleeping areas and on Deck 4 with other senior staff quarters.  As well as standard starfleet furniture they contain a couple of paintings of nebulas.  Pictures of home, family and friends and a few holiday trinkets on desks, tables.  Another a large potted plant as well as several pot containing seeds.  


If you have an image for your character, add the file name for it such as EnsignSmith.jpg in the last field.
{{Heading|Family Relationships|Gold}}


Do NOT put [[ or ]] or File: in the name. The template will automatically resize your image to fit the sidebar.
Parents:  
*Mother: Chloe Elizabeth Baxter
*Father: Michael Ian Baxter


If you don't have an image for your character, just leave that field blank and a placeholder will show up instead. You can use the "EXTRA" field if you want to add something else to the bottom of your sidebar such as another image, a badge such as the Featured Bio Contest winner badge or links to subpages such as an academy transcript or a medical record. If you don't want to add anything, just leave it blank as well.
Siblings:
*Sister: Rachel Victoria Jenkins


You can also display your OOC writer ID number in your character's sidebar if you want by adding AUTHOR= to the list of variables. If you leave it blank, this field will disappear.
Extended family:
*Sister in law: Alix Jenkins
*Nephew: Thomas Ryan Jenkins born 238810.12(4)

(Description Here)


During her first year at the academy she struggled with all the study and rules missing her freedom and seriously considered leaving.  At the start of her 3rd year her grades dropped again, she had to do some resits and she was nearly dismissed.  But with the encouragement of her peers and tutors, she made it through graduating in top half of her year.  At academy she choose to major in engineering specializing in nanotechnology and programming but also graduated with minor in astrophysics after gaining an interest in science during her time there.

Her first assignment was to Federation Embassy of Duronis II. Shortly after arriving she received an offer she couldn't turn down to be Acting Chief Engineer to a starship on a 4 year mission exploring the unknown the USS. Za. She quickly packed her bags, but didn't think of the consequences of being away from home for so long.  She found it hard at first missing her family.  She was particularly close to her sister and nephew while at the academy, had previously seen him regularly from when he was born.  Also she found it difficult gaining respect from the engineering crew being a young Ensign particular from a seasoned petty officer Vreya Kima.
In the coding above, delete two of the headings so that only one remains. You can then type here as if you were writing on notepad to drop in some information about your character. If you want to use bullets, copy and paste the star above. You can also look on the forums and the wiki for tutorials on how to use more adventurous coding.
