* '''Personality''': As a child, Ravenna struggled with anger issues that stemmed from her father's death, her mother abandoning her, and not fitting in as a child. This lead to several suspensions due to violent outbursts. It was a struggle for much of her youth. As an adult, Ravenna comes across as an outgoing individual who works well in a team. She does struggle with anxiety, however, it only gets really bad when she feels something is wrong; in which she is always right. She struggles with her feelings in romantic relationships based on the example set by her mother which led to her father's passing. She makes friends fairly easy, however, there are only a few that she feels secure confiding in. She cares very deeply about her friends and she would work non-stop if it meant helping them. She is notorious for her 21st-century pop culture references and her absolute love for physical books. | * '''Personality''': As a child, Ravenna struggled with anger issues that stemmed from her father's death, her mother abandoning her, and not fitting in as a child.

* '''Father''': [[Daniel Carter]] (deceased) - Daniel was a medical doctor at a local emergency and trauma center in Brooklyn. He attended Emory University in Georgia for both pre-medical and medical school. He had a rough marriage to Elizabeth Quinlan, which ended in divorce. He was kicked out of the house after learning about her affair. From there, he joined Starfleet as a civilian doctor in an attempt to help the war effort. He moved to Betazed where he was on the front lines while fighting for custody of Ravenna. He was killed in an act that was classified as a war crime before he won the custody battle. When Ravenna was little, he taught her the importance of learning, and even though she was very young, he enjoyed reading medical texts with her. Her love for learning helped her graduate from high school early and got her accepted to Emory as well, where she followed in Daniel’s footsteps. The love for learning he instilled in her saved her life in so many ways; it was one of the things that has always kept them tethered together. Daniel was survived by Elizabeth Quinlan (ex-wife), Ravenna Carter (daughter), Samantha Carter (younger sister), and Jonathan Carter (older brother). | * '''Father''': [[Daniel Carter]] (deceased) - Daniel was a medical doctor at a local emergency and trauma center in Brooklyn.

Daniel was survived by Elizabeth Quinlan (ex-wife), Ravenna Carter (daughter), Samantha Carter (younger sister), and Jonathan Carter (older brother). During a mission entitled "[[The Great Gas Dive (Constitution)|The Great Gas Dive]]", Ravenna was severely injured and in a comatose state in which she met her father and was reverted back into a child. He calmed her down, telling her that she was hurt but he was there with her. This, among other mission oriented reasons, cause Ravenna to switch to Medical. | ||
* '''Mother''': Elizabeth “Liza” Grace Quinlan- Elizabeth Quinlan is an American Archaeologist with a focus on metal artifacts. She was married to Daniel Carter until their divorce, which was caused by her affair with fellow archaeologist, Mason Moore. She never liked Ravenna as the little girl was very smart and closer to Daniel than she herself could ever hope to be. She was physically and emotionally abusive to Ravenna after her father was kicked out of the house. This resulted in bruises from being grabbed and a deep-seated fear of her mother in Ravenna. After Daniel’s funeral, Elizabeth left Ravenna with a nanny and moved to California, where she married Mason and had a son the same year. She was never present in any of Ravenna’s major life events. Starfleet dispatched her to the USS Constitution-B to assist in an artifact identification project. This resulted in a screaming match in the main shuttle bay. Ravenna has cut all ties with Elizabeth but works on her relationship with her half-brother, Sawyer. | * '''Mother''': Elizabeth “Liza” Grace Quinlan- Elizabeth Quinlan is an American Archaeologist with a focus on metal artifacts.

After "The Great Gas Dive", Ravenna realized that she had gotten into science for reasons that did not satisfy her and she followed her heart back to Medical, severing the final tie to her mother. | ||
* '''Siblings''': Sawyer Moore (Half Brother)- Sawyer Moore is Ravenna’s younger, half-brother. He grew up with the dream of being in Starfleet; serving on the USS Constitution-B is that dream, realized. He serves as a security officer aboard the ship. He met Ravenna during the ordeal with their mother. He took the whole thing harder than Ravenna did, as he had never expected his mother could be that kind of person. Though it is hard for him, he asked his mother to give him space while he works on building a relationship with Ravenna. He immediately took up the role of an annoying baby brother and he is living for it. | * '''Siblings''': [[Sawyer Moore]] (Half Brother)- Sawyer Moore is Ravenna’s younger, half-brother.

'''Lazarus Davis''': Lazarus, also known as Laz or Juice, is Ravenna's fellow science officer and closest friend aboard the USS Constitution-B. They quickly clicked as friends, having shared interests and a love for learning new things. They work well together and almost immediately identified the other as a confidant. During an allergic reaction to anti-anxiety medication, Lazarus rushed Ravenna to the Sickbay on Starbase 104 and later went with her to purchase her pet tribble, Delilah. Laz was with Ravenna during the blowup with her mother and Ravenna was grateful to him for staying and standing by her and helping her find out what happened to her father. | '''[[Ghant Xerix]]''': Ravenna met Ghant on her first day at Starfleet Academy. They were in the same Federation History class. After a few short weeks of getting to know each other, Ravenna accompanied Ghant to his family's cottage on Risa for a fun vacation. On their first night there, Ghant was poisoned and held for ransom. The kidnappers were going to kill Ravenna until she pointed out that Ghant would die if she didn't help him. After ensuring that he was out of danger, she fought off the would-be killers. After the whole ordeal, the two were close friends for the remainder of their academy days. Ghant graduated the year before Ravenna, but they have remained friends despite being posted to different ships. They have made a deal to communicate regularly and frequently chat via video calls. Because of her role in saving Ghant on Risa, she was awarded the Silver Lifesaving Ribbon. Her first actions after receiving it was to call Ghant. | ||
'''[[Corliss Fortune]]''': Corliss (also called C or Wiggy by Ravenna) was one of Ravenna's two best friends in the academy, the other being Ghant Xerix. Corliss and Ravenna frequently studied in the library together despite having separate courses. Their studying often became loud resulting in stern looks from the librarian. Corliss helped bring Ravenna out of her shell and gave her someone closer to her age that she could relate to. Corliss graduated the year before Ravenna and had a huge ball in celebration. There, she insisted on teaching Ravenna how to dance and proceeded to set her up with her brother, whom she knew Ravenna had a crush on. | |||

'''Brommel Fortune''': Brommel is Corliss' older brother and Ravenna's Fiance. They maintain a strong long-distance relationship that would be considered open, though Ravenna herself doesn't partake in any outside physical relations. He is a Ranger with Starfleet that takes him to nondisclosed parts of space and he often doesn't have the ability to visit. Notably, Brommel left a picture of the two of them at Corliss' Ball dancing as a bookmark in Ravenna's poetry journal marking a poem about being madly in love with the person you are with. He is currently visiting on the Constitution during their mutual shore leave. | '''[[Brommel Fortune]]''': Brommel is Corliss' older brother and Ravenna's Fiance.

During her final year of the academy, Brommel would visit on his rare shore leaves, as he is a Starfleet Ranger. One such time, the pair found themselves stuck inside due to rainstorms. the two spent the night curled up on a couch reading together and at some point, he placed a picture of them from the ball in her poetry collection journal as a bookmark on his favorite poem. During her training simulation on the holodeck, Ravenna served as the Science Officer on the USS Centris-A. She was tasked with confirming the victims of an attack were fit for transport to medical when one of the Lieutenants aboard grabbed her. | During her final year of the academy, Brommel would visit on his rare shore leaves, as he is a Starfleet Ranger.

So far into her tenure on the USS Constitution-B, Ravenna has made fast friends with her fellow Science Officer. They | So far into her tenure on the USS Constitution-B, Ravenna has made fast friends with her fellow Science Officer. They worked together closely to determine why the rest of the senior officers were unresponsive and were two of the first people to work towards a solution. Ravenna and Lazarus programmed a Halloween Party on the holodeck to help the crew unwind after the impromptu mission. After contacting Ghant, it was revealed that they liked each other, but it wasn't going to work because Ravenna also revealed to Laz that she had a long term boyfriend who was due to visit the Conny for the party. Things turned sour between the two and it all came to a head as a screaming match before the start of her second mission. | ||
Her second mission was the trade negotiation between Starfleet and the Zeltin people. Ravenna was apart of team one, lead by Commander Blair. They were given a tour of the work facilities and recreation areas of the divers and they were present for a bar fight that resulted in severe injury. Ravenna then recalled a medical case from her time as a fellow where they tried to treat a similar injury. The patient didn't survive, unlike the Zeltin. Afterward, they continued their tour and found themselves at ground zero for the Razaar attack. During the destruction, Ravenna was hit in the abdomen by some high tension cable from one of the transport cars. She was rushed back to the Consitution by Dr. Cade Foster and Lt. Nalni, where she underwent surgery. She made a full recovery thanks to Dr. Foster's quick thinking. | |||
Ravenna and K'Vash discussed the artifact that her mother had been sent to help with and they put together a plan to identify the artifact. After Dr. Foster left to lead the medical relief team, Ravenna was tasked with prepping the sickbay for incoming injured by Dr. Ed Spears, who also put her in charge of some of the overflow facilities. It was this that finally changed Ravenna's mind about her duty post.She felt at home and in her element, where she had felt very uncertain in science. She realized that she had always been meant to be a doctor and she should have stayed on the path she had started down. She hopes that wherever Daniel is, that he is proud of what she has become and accomplished. | |||
While on Endaasi for the awards ceremony and Commedore Rajel's promotion from Captain, Commander German Galven surprised Ravenna by bringing her Aunt Sam and Uncle Jonathan for a visit. While spending quality time together along with Sawyer, he broke his ankle and tore the muscle doing a cannonball. Ravenna healed Sawyer's ankle with the help of Dr. Spears' medkit (as she had forgotten her own). Afterwards, Ravenna attended a farmers market with Jacob Horne and a team building exercise with Lystra, Jalana, Saveron, and Sarah. Earthquakes are currently causing issues for the teams. | |||
