Upon graduation from [[Starfleet Academy]], Ensign Tahna Meru was posted to the [[USS Gorkon]] as a science officer. | |||
*'''''[[Operation Q-Ball (Gorkon)| Operation Q-Ball]] - Stardate 239801.20 to 239802.02''''' | |||
Her first mission on board the Gorkon, she was ordered to stay with the shuttle and keep an eye out. What could go wrong? | |||
Theeda. Theeda could go wrong. After being drugged and spending a brief stint as a prisoner of war, she was rescued (and further drugged) by Lieutenant Commander [[Jocelyn Marshall]] and Ensign [[Sarah Phillips]]. Their attempts to distract Theeda from the ''Latinum Beluga'' resulted in the first of many explosions that would haunt Tahna's career. Her capture and feeling of relative uselessness on this mission caused her to begin questioning her decision to join Starfleet. | |||
*'''''[[What Do Boys Dream (Gorkon)| What Do Boys Dream]] - Stardate 239803.23 - 239806.18''''' | |||
Waking up in a Cardassian prison cell, Tahna "Greenhorn" Meru joined her maquis compatirates in finding a way out and back to the Skarbek. Her team retrieved manual actuators, attempted to remedy a problem with the power supply, had the floor cave in on them following an explosion, and eventually befriended a sentient slime they named Roomba (after an old folk character) before they were rescued. | |||
Upon waking to reality, and learning of the Gorkon's history of shared Skarbek delusions, she joined many of the crew in seeking mental health treatment on [[Deluvia system|Deluvia IV]]. She struggled with guilt and post-traumatic stress, and considered resigning her commission after two terrible experiences in one year. Her therapist and superiors convinced her to give it another go before leaving. | |||
*'''''[[The Pelian Brief (Gorkon)| The Pelian Brief]] - Stardate 239808.28 to 239811.18''''' | |||
Ensign Tahna Meru, Commander [[Samira Neathler]], and Lieutenant [[Cory Stoyer]] join Agent Lynas to investigate when Bisul, a [[Pelian]] religious leader, is found murdered in his study. They discover a hidden grotto, mysterious scrolls, a forbidden love triangle. During their investigation they are caught in a bus bombing, before they uncover and put a stop to a massive conspiracy. Meanwhile (unbeknowst to her) Tahna's best friend, Cadet [[Ico Ena]], was trapped in a cave under the very same planet. | |||
The successful completion of this mission convinced Tahna to retain her commission in Starfleet, as she realized that she was really in Starfleet to help others, not to help herself. | |||
*'''''[[Shadows of the Rift (Gorkon)| Shadows of the Rift]] - Stardate 239901.27 to 239904.22''''' | |||
The {{USS|Gorkon}} picked up garbled distress signals from the {{USS|Triumphant}} with their last known location attached, located deep within a subspace bubble—possibly a [[ma:Tyken's Rift|Tyken's Rift]]. Tahna helped investigate a drifting escape pod for clues, but she and her team were thrown around the cargo bay by a mysterious force that forced them to confront their fears. She was first reassigned to a team attempting to fix the power drain in engineering, and once more reassigned to a search and rescue mission when a hole is blown in the side of the Gorkon. | |||
