Charlena Vanlith: Difference between revisions

*'''Clothes when off duty:''' Charlena has never been one to dress up its much more about movability and comfort so typically she will be found in fitted jeans (that aren't too tight) and a loose fitting shirt. However, when the situation calls for it she knows how to dress up for the part and will do so gladly.

Jonathan and Charlena have only recently began a relationship, so far it has been full of fun and as much nature as the holodeck allows. They first began their relationship in the Brew Continuum and although it is early days Charlena couldn't be happier.

Her father hasn't changed his attitude towards her however, when at the age of 17 Charlena started to think about joining the Academy, much to her brothers enthusiasm, she was met with opposition from her father. Charlena's father wanted her to continue in hospitality and be able to take the hotel on from him when he could no longer run it. Starfleet was no in his plans for her and since the business had been in the family for many generations he gave her the choice of the Academy or the family. Charlena with her brothers support, well a much support as a 4 year old could give, decided that the Academy was the best way froward for her. Her parents were quick to cut her out after that decision, and discovering her brother had fuelled her ideas and convinced her to apply they didn't hesitate to do the same to him. Thankfully Charlena's friend George was there for them when that happened helping them to be able to move forward and strive towards what Oli and CHar both wanted.  

Charlena began her career on the {{USS|Veritas}} where she is currently based.  

Charlena ended up leading an away team to tackle the issue of having a Tholian station drift over the border, not only did she manage to get the team to dismantle the engineering modifications that had occured in the station she was able to do this and get the station back over the border with a Tholian Sympathiser working against them. It was stressful but a huge success.  

Charlena was left to run engineering as away teams were sent down to an asteroid after a distress call. For the first time in a while Charlena felt out of her depth as she signed off on decisions she wasn't entirely sure of such as sending BAXTER through a torpedo tube to the asteroid when they could no longer use transporters. Charlena proceeded to have a small mental breakdown when BAXTER was unable to communicate with her and the ship fearing she had lost him to the hostile AI. BAXTER did however return and CHarlena was able to keep the ship stable despite the issues due to being so close to the asteroid and the attacks from the AI before the help of Ensign Wong ensured their safety with his AI's negotiation skills and communication.
