After both crews resolve the incident, she ignores all requests to assist a small task force formed by Starfleet Intelligence to examine all records pertaining to Vassily intending to locate and capturing him, claiming an irritation of Starfleet’s inattention to the Federation’s local problems.

She remains on [[Astrofori One]] during the ''Syracuse'' shore leave, and along with Zhou, assists the ''Syracuse'' and ''Invicta'' crews in refurbishing the {{USS|Venture}}. On its way home from a parade, the ''Venture'' is thrown into the mid-2200s, coming up against the [[ma:Planet killer|Doomsday machine]]—during this period, Blake acts as the ''Venture'''s First Officer.

Blake is of a calm and collected temperament, receptive to criticism, and is a cool-headed thinker unwilling to take unnecessary risks. She prefers working ''with'' her staff, rather than having them work ''for'' her, and relies on her crew mates counsel for most matters - despite having served in the Shoals for longer than many of her fellow senior staff, she is actually the least experienced officer of the group, due to a case of retrograde amnesia. Because of this, she will ask questions and press for more information when she feels she does not have all the answers she requires - but she never does this guns-blazing.  
Blake is of calm and collected temperament, receptive to criticism, and is a cool-headed thinker unwilling to take unnecessary risks. She relies often on her crewmates counsel for many matters, but is a fast learner and typically relies upon her own lack of experience to give her a different perspective on conflicts. Blake will ask questions and press for more information when she feels she does not have all the answers she requires, but she never does this guns-blazing.  


Blake feels that her duty is to the crew and the ship - though she may feel comfortable with aspects outside of the Starfleet realm that her fellow crew disagree with, she will choose to side with her shipmates and work with them. An example of this can be seen when she decidedly overrules a suggestion by [[Jhalib Ekal]] to isolate the ''Veritas'' flight recorder in case of sabotage (a suggestion of which she agreed with), and opts to employ [[Wil Ukinix]]'s prioritizing of engineering resources instead - she will even go out of her way to ensure that she and her crew are on the same page about such matters.

She surrounds herself deliberately with colour, having subscribed rather heavily into Ornaran colour psychology, and is considerably bright and charismatic when faced with relaxed social settings that don't involve her Starfleet uniform. Blake is occasionally referred to the 'doom and gloom' character by her fellow crew, and has been heard verbalizing worst case scenarios sometimes to a point of fault - though she is not without positivity.  
Blake takes her job and learned mannerisms within the Shoals seriously, as she thoroughly believes in the rules of engagement set for the area - repeated offences by [[Starfleet]] vessels entering the Shoals (such as the {{USS|Astraeus}} and the {{USS|Artemis}}) frustrate her greatly. Because of this, she is considered by her fellow crew to have a particularly ‘sharp’ or ‘icy’ demeanour. If irritated, she becomes cold and blunt, but if Blake is known for one thing, it’s that she hardly ever raises her voice to others. Because she spends a significant amount of time as a long [[Starfleet Ranger]], she becomes incredibly frustrated when her crew breaks what she believes to be simple rules established for operation in the [[Shoals]] (such as [[Kelrod]] discharging a phaser to stop an escalating physical conflict in a [[Ketar V]] establishment, which ultimately lands he, [[Wil Ukinix]], and their captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] in marshal holding cells). Blake is strict upon herself and tries her best to abide by the social norms, rules, and laws of other cultures or colonies, even when doing so contradicts her duty as a Starfleet officer.

She surrounds herself deliberately with colour, having subscribed rather heavily into Ornaran colour psychology, and is considerably bright and charismatic when faced with relaxed social settings that don’t involve her Starfleet uniform. On duty, however, Blake is occasionally referred to the ‘doom and gloom’ character by her fellow crew and has been heard verbalizing worst-case scenarios sometimes to a point of fault, though most of her potential suggestions or outcomes leave openings for others to provide significantly better counter-proposals.  


Despite engaging in many ''casual'' relationships, she still wears three rings denoting her marriage to Sabor, her [[Vulcan]] bondmate whom was killed in 2391 - located on her right hand thumb, second, and fourth fingers. Her relationships to her surviving family members are incredibly important to Blake as she attempts to reunite with her daughter. Though she is protective of her children and their privacy, she trusts others to watch over them when she is not available - such is often the case with [[Ayden Blake|Ayden]], whom many of the crew have looked after as she works aboard the ''Veritas''.

Blake is a humanoid of [[Brekkian]] and [[Betazoid]] descent, standing at 5'10 with short blonde hair and emerald green eyes. She wears three rings on her right hand - denoting her marriage to [[Sabor]], placed on her thumb (a plain copper band), second (a plain gold band), and fourth (a stainless steel band with emerald gemstone) fingers, respectively.  
Blake is a humanoid of [[Brekkian]] and [[Betazoid]] descent, sharing emerald green eyes with her father but the lack of any notable Brekkian features from her Betazoid mother. She is 5'10 (one of the taller officers on the ''Veritas'' crew) and sports short blonde hair, just long enough to be tied back. She wears three rings on her right hand, denoting her marriage to [[Sabor]], placed on her thumb (a plain copper band), second (a plain gold band), and fourth (a stainless steel band with emerald gemstone) fingers, respectively.  


Because she is part Brekkian, Blake's body temperature is higher than that of the average humanoid - as such, her skin is surprisingly warm, if not hot to touch. She often wears layers when operating aboard [[Starfleet]] vessels, adding additional pieces to her uniform so to remain warm in what others do consider to be regular temperate environments. When ill, she does go so far as to wear thermal clothing to replace parts of her uniform or add more layers underneath it. Unless she is in her quarters, which tend to be set in the 30-degree Celsius range, she will wear comfortable form-fitting clothing when dressing outside of duty, the most skin exposed generally being her collar bone and above (as well as her hands). She will also consistently wear brightly colored but otherwise plain clothing.

That said, she thrives in hot climates, and returns to a casual getup when working in warmer environments, ditching uniform jackets and opting to wear shorts and singlets where possible. On duty, she will also be equipped with a [[Personal phaser#Type 2 "Aquila" Pattern|Type 2 Mark VIII NL Aquila]], rather than standard phasers.

On duty, she will also be equipped with a [[Personal phaser#Type 2 "Aquila" Pattern|Type 2 Mark VIII NL Aquila]] when she deems necessary and disagrees with Starfleet's standard practise of carrying phasers.


Though she is not aware of it's cause, nor potentially of it's existence, there is a two inch long scar at the base of her lower back seemingly from a dagger-inflicted injury.

===Personal spaces===
Blake considers her quarters to be much to large for just herself and her son to inhabit - despite the possessions of her toddler now being present, Blake's quarters feel seemingly bare, with few personal items on display. However, where she has added items, they are colourful and eye-catching, and by no means match the starchy feel of standard Starfleet quarters - a sunshine yellow blanket is draped over the couch; her glassware for some strange reason, a bright green colour; and there is a false plant on her coffee table featuring a neon blue flower. The lights are generally on 90% illumination or higher, and are warmer than the rest of the ship by ten degrees.

Despite protesting the action, Blake inevitably moved into the Chief of Security's office, though the room makes her feel physically uncomfortable due to what she considers it's "large" floor space. In reality, it is an averaged size located nearby the CIC. The office is described as having been deliberately cluttered with items of various origin - though none of them are hers of a personal nature. Due to her personal feelings for the size of the office, the door is programmed to remain open unless privacy was required - this is generally to encourage walk-ins, and is a deliberate attempt at forgoing a formal feel. Blake attached a bar to the ceiling of the room of which is used for exercise, an accompanying safety mat can also located for this within the office. Shelving with various PADDs can be located to the right of the room when walking in - on the left, a display connected to the [[Colonial Coalition Marshals Service]] database which updates whenever the ship passes by a data buoy.
