"Of course I'm going to fight! I'll fight with a rifle, a tricorder, my own hands if I have to. Someday this war is going to end and I'm going to fight to ensure that victory is some day very, very soon."

Dr. Lilavati Chandur, is a civilian psychiatrist currently assigned to the USS Gorkon. Formerly a Starfleet Lieutenant and a veteran of the Dominion War, Doctor Chandur once again resigned her commission after the deaths of Morgan Vance and the rest of the crew of the USS Thomas Edison during the Prometheus Incident. Taking a few months off to write her report about the virus, Doctor Chandur returned to Earth and her family before signing up again with Starfleet as a civilian contractor. Not fully comfortable in her uniform but feeling like she owed something to her old friend, Doctor Chandur took the assignment on the Gorkon as much for her sense of duty as to help herself work through her close friend's death.

Lilavati is a strikingly beautiful Indian woman in her mid-40s whose brilliance both mental and physical has not dimmed with age, stress or trauma.

  • Voice: Feminine but commanding, Lilavati speaks with a distinct cultivated Indian English accent.

Brilliant, Beautiful, Ambitious and Resilient, these are all words that have been used to describe Lilavati Chandur. To her, these words are titles and mean little and she would rather be remembered for her various deeds and not her individual traits. Mother of three, survivor of the Battle of Ricktor Prime, Carrington Award nominee, Lilavati prefers to be remembered for her truly amazing accomplishments and not words of praise blindly lauded and stamped on paper. She finds challenges and seeks accomplishment in everything she does. From medical school to motherhood, from the battlefield to the operating table, Lilavati has never rested on her laurels and there is much she believes yet to be done.

It might not really be a color but Lilavati loves white.

Family

Lilavati was born to a Keralite Christian family long established on both sides of the Indian Ocean. Her distant paternal ancestors were merchants who arrived in colonial Kenya at the turn of the 19th century, though they had been long prosperous on the Malabar coast for centuries. On her mother's side, Lilavati's ancestry can be traced back to the Kings of Karnakata.

  • Spouse Anik Thangavel: A British civil engineer of Tamil descent, Lilavati and Anik were introduced to each other when Lilavati was staying the summer with an Aunt in London. Anik was quickly enamored with the Kenyan medical student but Lilavati stayed reticent for weeks before she allowed him to take her on a date. After two years, great distances and "a sickening amount of flowers", Lilavati accepted Anik's third marriage proposal. The start of the Dominion War threw off their wedding plans but they continued to remain in contact, with Anik even enlisting in Starfleet, saying that it would be "bad form" for his fiancé to be the one being shipped off to war. A year into the war and several harrowing battles, Lilavati and Anik finally tied the knot in a small ceremony on Starbase 375. After the battle of Ricktor Prime, Lilavati was feared dead for several days before her escape pod was found. A few months after the end of the war, Lilavati resigned her commission and returned to Earth, where she married Anik in a traditional c Syro-Catholic ceremony. During their years away from Starfleet, the two had three children together and Anik worked on several large irrigation projects on Earth while Lilavati finally finished her training as a psychiatrist. Those fifteen years were happy ones and their marriage is strong and affectionate.
  • Children: 3

Friends

Colleagues

  • Morgan Vance:

Lilavati's XO on the USS Nobel, Commander Vance saved her life during the Battle of Ricktor Prime. Spending nearly a week in an escape pod, the two grew very close and their friendship would last for 16 years. He was part of the wedding party at Anik and Lilavati's wedding and godfather to two of their three children. In 2391, when Vance was given command of the USS Thomas Edison, he sought Lilavati out as his first and only choice for the position of ship's Chief Medical Officer. Lilavati agreed to take up the uniform again, at least for a time. During this time, the Thomas Edison was assigned to the Piktar System and Prometheus station. There, they encountered an anomaly and a strange virus. This virus mutated most of the crew save for Lilavati, Chief Petty Officer Rand, and Ensign Eleni Kostas. After their rescue by the crew of the Constiution two weeks after encountering the anomaly, the anomaly began to collapse and it took the Thomas Edison and the infected crew with it, including Captain Vance. The death of her close friend hit Lilavati hard and after seeing to his affairs, giving his eulogy and accepting his flag at his funeral with full honors, she returned to her own family for a few months, heartbroken at the loss of her friend and so many others.
