Hoping to leave the stain of his academy years behind him, Nilsen's first posting was to the USS Oumuamua, as a '''helm, communications, and operations officer'''. During this time, Nilsen has been working hard in the lower decks and tried to make himself a valued member of the operations team. He joined the Oumuamua in mid 2400, met his roommate who he affectionally refers to as his "brorooomy," made a huge impact in his first mission and was showing a positive change in his behaviour. He was also valuable in helping the operations team to install their new Operations Centre as a part of the [[Focused Operation Refit Taskforce (Project Fort)]]. He also took part in a secret mission to learn more about possible Zet behaviour in the Alpha Quadrant.
Nilsen was on track to becoming a model Starfleet officer however his time on the Oumuamua has not been without incident. Old issues, a chip on his shoulder and past failures all affect his present day relationships as well as wreckless behaviour at the Denali Invitational. According to Commander Etan "It was clear that Nilsen was a gifted and promising officer, but he kept getting in his own way." <ref>Commander Etan Iljor - Into The Unknown - https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/IvJJe4lUeho/m/iAv51K6tAQAJ</ref>         
=== '''Mission: The Esh-o Micronebula''' ===
Nilsen's first mission aboard the Oumuama was described by [[Ossa V'Airu|Commodore V'Airu]] as "complex." While in the lower decks, Nilsen felt the full force of the nebula's effect and during this time wrote his resignation letter. <ref name=":0" />
During this mission, on Stardate 240008.03 Nilsen was called up to the bridge, and with Commodore V'Airu, he joined LT [[Jack Kessler]] and LT [[Sasha Johnson]] in retrofitting the mission pod from a tactical to a scanning functionality. It was during this refit that Nilsen expressed his worries and concern over the effect his crash had over his ability to do his job. Commodore [[Ossa V'Airu]] was witnessed as saying "That officer didn't make up my mind for me. I believe you deserve a chance." in response to Lhandon's worries about this sudden posting.<blockquote>'''Nilsen''': You’ve read my file? You saw that crash report? They said…the commander, my old instructor said I should never fly, he said that he’d tell every captain, every XO, every commander that I will ever have.
Any joy that Lhandon had felt was replaced with one of worry as the words of his old instructor started to replay in his head.
'''V'Airu:''' (with a brief shake of her head) That officer didn't make up my mind for me. I believe you deserve a chance.</blockquote>
Nllsen took the helm guided the Oumuamua through the micronebula and took evasive action after becoming suspicious of a handful of sensor readouts. Nilsen interrupted these as potently hostile contacts and took it upon himself to take evasive manoeuvres. <ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/CcBAO-uFNVw/m/x3FljMvUBAAJ</ref><ref>https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/QvsFq0_vRJI/m/fY9Rh-uWBAAJ</ref>
[[File:Lhandon Nilsen Ensign.png|thumb|Nilsen on the USS Oumuamua - Mid 2399]]
Nilsen was involved with contact with the USS Nautilus, and facilitated communication with that ship. When the order was given to evacuate the USS Nautilus, Nilsen was able to free up resources to increase the efficiency of the operation. 
Sometime after this mission, he admitted he wrote the resignation letter to Commander Etan Iljor <ref name=":0">Looking for Ihsehelm., [https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/6_anTawIw2A/m/lDiyI2NfAQAJ Part 1]., [https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/eaxNh_7jT4I/m/hLbYQHBfAQAJ Part 2]</ref> however he had yet to submit it.
Nilsen was award the Legion of Merit for his actions in this mission
=== '''Classified Mission: Investigating Zet Activity In The Alpha Quadrant.''' ===
Toxin Arlill and Lhandon Nilsen find themselves in a complex situation involving Arlill's mother, Fritea, and a Zet named Ze'Nazha. Fritea and Ze'Nazha are working together to develop a countermeasure against a potent weapon created by a xenophobic faction of the Zet. During their journey, Arlill and Nilsen face numerous challenges, including evading hostile pursuers. Despite these difficulties, they successfully manage to drop Fritea and Ze'Nazha off on a planet inhabited by Zet dissidents. This planet, just outside of Zet territory, is a safe haven for those who do not agree with the aggressive direction the Zet coalition is taking, providing the ideal location for Fritea and Ze'Nazha to continue their crucial work.
However, the challenges for Arlill and Nilsen don't end there. Their shuttle experiences a critical malfunction in the warp drive, bringing their journey to a sudden halt. Despite not being engineers, they attempt to fix the malfunction themselves, determined to resolve the situation without external help. The return to the USS Oumuamua under their own power and infrom Commodore V'airu of their findings. <ref>JP Adventure Awaits - https://groups.google.com/u/1/g/sb118-oumuamua/search?q=Adventure%20Awaits</ref>
=== '''Special Event: Denali Invitational 2400''' ===
[[File:Denali invitational logo.png|right|frameless|300x300px]]
Nilsen attended the Denali Invitational. This event started off positively and he quickly got to know [[Dekas]], [[Araxxu Vahin]] and Mekor, learning more about Aurelian food. Nilsen entered with Arlill and Vomek in the Foxy Lady, a talaxian freighter.   
During the first leg of the race, all the contestants took off in a crowded field of 33 contenders, and a total of 8 [[Denali Invitational#Teams|Starfleet affiliated]] teams.  Right off the bat, several teams kicked in their unique special attributes, including the Vela, a refurbished Caitian rescue craft which sprayed the entire field with Kryptilithium, a compound known to gum up impulse engines.
As the racers approached the city proper, preparing for a flyover of the city and the stadium where a large crowd was gathered to watch the race, one of the teams experienced engine problems and crashed in the forest on the outskirts of the city.
At the last minute, the crew of the Foxy Lady was able to mitigate some of the damage to the crashing ship with a tractor beam, probably saving the lives of the crew and inhabitants in the city.
Later in the race the Foxy Lady itself was damaged in an encounter with the large animals living in the Oort cloud around the system of Ring 42 and was assisted by both the Gott Speed and the Phelshant United pit crew, a vessel known simply as 'The Wharf'.
After a thrilling conclusion, the racers ended
# Gott Speed ([[Connor Dewitt]], [[Nolen Hobart]]
#Ensigns Joyride ([[Ksivi-Sava]], [[Madison Marsh]], [[Corey Wethern]])
#Gamma Glider ([[Avander Promontory]], [[Roger Hartmann]], [[TK Cabrillo]]) & Roxy's Foxy Lady ([[Lhandon Nilsen]], [[Toxin Arlill]], [[Simon Vomek]]) - collision at the finish line
#Allahayer ([[Oddas Aria]])
#Amiteam ([[Nathan Richards]]) & ZD Stars Racing ([[Jelanna Zarax]], [[Valin Dermont]])
Unfortunately, the event was not his best showing and during the race he lost control of himself and allowed his anger to take over. He showed a disregard for his own safety and the safety of others. After the race, Commander Etan Iljor was unimpressed with him.  <blockquote>"Hearing the HCO’s voice made Iljor clench his jaw. After the man’s reckless disregard for safety during the recent Denali Invitational, Iljor had lost a lot of faith in the pilot. It was clear that Nilsen was a gifted and promising officer, but he kept getting in his own way: first at the academy, and now as a commissioned officer. He had been extraordinarily lucky to not have avoided serving time in the brig."

=== '''Mission: The Sandbox of Man (Alpha Brenkelvi II)''' ===
[[File:Ancient City Ruins.png|A view of the ruins on Alpha Brenkelvi II|300x300px|right|frameless]]The mission was initially intended as a simple scan and exploration turned out to be a discovery of an orb of the prophets, a named civilization 'Spirits of the Deceased', and an ancient Bajoran civilization that had ascended to a non-corporeal form. This group transferred Nilsen’s consciousness into his commodore's mindscape. The effects of this event weakened the neuropathways between Nilsen's brain and muscles, causing difficulty in walking and controlling his limbs⁠8⁠
'''Act 1 - Arrival at Alpha Brenkelvi II'''
Nilsen was expecting to spend the Alpha Brenkelvi II mission in the [[Oumuamua Operations Center|Operations Centre]] of the USS Oumuamua, providing operational and logical support to the await teams. Ensign Kovacs was joined him<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Up And Running - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/9bTWc7gAaDY/m/9426lyAwAAAJ</ref> He was not expecting to take part in the anthropological discovery of the year. Shortly after the mission began Nilsen was summoned to the bridge by Lt.Sherlock and was advised to bring an engineer with him  Upon arrival, Nilsen and Kovacs were tasked with rerouting power to the sensors, after this action, the bridge was able to get clearer readings from the surface of the planet and Nilsen was concerned by some of the scans he saw and had a sense that trouble was about to happen, <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - An HCO And An Engineer Walk Onto The Bridge - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/HXmpACs9Zos/m/jQhz0g21AAAJ</ref>
Nilsen launched a class three probe and then worked with Lt Arlill who was on one of the two away teams to direct a structural integrity field at the device mounted on the shuttle Nichols. Moments later, Nilsen reported a "massive power build up" and attempted to maintain communication with the away team. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - No boom -https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/10nO75oRsrg/m/oz1GNag3AQAJ</ref> This was unsuccessful. After this, Kovacs stuttered by Nilsen stood by him as he got his words out and found his voice. Kovacs's suggestion of checking the comms of the other away team was a solid suggestion, unfortunately this too was unsuccessful.<ref name=":3">Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Nilsen Kicked Into Gear - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/OgrbVpdhxKs/m/8AMKvOVdAQAJ</ref>
The Oumuamua was then attacked by the moon of Alpha Brenkelvi II <ref>??????? - Intruders in Orbit - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/88gzxTdDiXI/m/IdteMvKnAQAJ</ref> and Nilsen took to the helm and began evasive manoeuvres. These had success but Nilsen incorrectly identified the shots as coming from the planet service, rather then the moon. When he was able to correct his mistake,  his maneuver were more effective, however the barrage from the moon was relentless. <ref name=":3" /> While evading, he was also trying to do damage control and direct the damage control teams. He knew that "they can go over via Deck 3 and drop down. The tubes are in a loop" to reach Commodore V'Airu who had been trapped and injured in the attack<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Moving up and down, side to side, like a rollercoaster - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/doMmyXubdMc/m/XvTR7bhDAgAJ</ref>. While this was a good suggestion on his part, he would late be admonished by Winters for not staying in his lane. As he was evading, he suggested a course of action that would be unwise, this was a in system warp jump, with the destination being a short distance away and after giving the option to Sherlock, she gave permission for him to pull the manoeuvre, '''making Nilsen only the third helms officer in Starfleet history to successfully pull off this an in-system warp after Commander Dax & Colonel Kira Nerys, and Captain Picard''' <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Talking Around A Table - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/4S3PNXzeg6I/m/-GlzGhdpAwAJ</ref><ref>Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Defiant's In-System Warp - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HPBbfdxDk6U</ref> <ref>Picard Maneuver - https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Picard_Maneuver</ref>   
When they were a safe distance away and no long in danger, Sherlock summon Nilsen, and Winters into the conference room to discuss the next steps, It was here where Winters admonished Nilsen for not respecting the chain of command, even if he was in the right He then also clashed with Winters again in the same meeting over the distribution of power reserves for the shields and weapons. This concluding with Winters telling him to stay in his lane<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Talking Around A Table -  https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/4S3PNXzeg6I/m/-GlzGhdpAwAJ</ref> and Nilsen's lack of respect for Winters and Sherlock grew
Nilsen was then instructed to return to the bridge, there he established an uplink with the probe and soon had the scanners working and picking up data from the planet <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - He’s A Bright Kid. - https://groups.google.com/u/5/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/pCUGewumZrA/m/d6foQWQEBQAJ</ref>. After this, he identified that there were four distinct collections of chronotron radiation.
While he was working on this, he saw an image on the bridge that was his father. This images appeared to be helpful as he was able to make a successful connection to ground team. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - My Papa Is Here -https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/kmizVHNawbE/m/z5e8-y2oBQAJ</ref> At this moment, Nilsen is the only person to see an image, but soon, each member of the bridge crew have their own visison. Soon Winters sumises that these hullucinations were real and caused by the chrontion particles at his his staton.
Soon after, Nilsen was able to give the bridge crew a clear view of the moon and a scan of the strucutres on the surface and make a breif contact with Etan's away team. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Radiowaves - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/piFgS9zu4iQ/m/7nCAU43gBAAJ</ref> Further details were discovered and the other memebers of the bridge crew started to see their own images. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Three Comms Calls, Two Faces From The Past And An Ensign Having An Interesting First Mission - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/FD3aNaWC_LA/m/_kAuvPECBwAJ</ref>
 
Lhandon then came to the conculsion that these beings were trying to communicate with them, and advercated for an attempt at returning communication with the ghosts. 
<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - I’m just saying, let them show their cards first. - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/6tdU-hVT8EM/m/t8g5nzNvAAAJ</ref> After discussion with the rest of the bridge crew the solution was found, to use all the chronitions they had collected and pour them into one big attempt at communication.
'''Act 2 - Confrontations'''
The bridge crew retired to the conference room and Lhandon could not shake that there was a reason these beings choose the appear as his father and made a mental plan to go over. He argued for the beings, saying that he thinks they want to show his crew something, but what he didn't know. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - It’s How They Communicate - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/P10d6zGEt3o/m/-52DEafYCAAJ</ref>. A plan was made to used the transporter, add in the chronitions and use that to go to their space. He then chose to speak up for himself and asked to be asgined to the away mission. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - I Wanna Go!!! Oooh Oooh Pick Me! Pick Me! - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/S13Eu5ZEZa8/m/x05N53AvCQAJ</ref> This would be his first meeting with Commander Rouiancet who would later become his commanding officer on the USS Octavia E Butler in 2401.
However, his distrust and anger with Sherlock was coming to a head. After the rest of the crew left the conference room, Nilsen confronts Sherlock for constantly belttling him, thinking that he is up to something, creeping around his OC and he confronts her for his perceved treament of ensigns from Sherlock. The two of them has a frank discussion. Nilsen's temper threatens to surface but he keeps a lid on it. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - A Confrontation In Gold - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/WrFHL3hJfxc/m/P9H7pc3YCQAJ</ref> To Nilsen's suprise, Sherlock appuaded him for this, said that she did trust him even more shockingly, was proud of him. <ref>[Sidebar] - Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - You Actually Trust Me? - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/6Maek86A-ZA/m/z-jxcS9jAAAJ</ref> As the disucssion drew to a close, she left him with a threat, "If you ever speak to me like that again, I WILL make you number sixteen! DO YOU GET ME!?" which was then followed by "Cross me again, and I WILL eat your heart!" A threat that was also a joke...mostly.<ref>[SIDEBAR] Lt. Aine Sherlock - Heart To Heart - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/XU_eyFJt18o/m/vp7P6R6qAAAJ</ref> Nilsen is pretty sure Sherlock would eat his heart if she wanted to. 
Nilsen is yet to understand what she meant by calling him number sixteen, he thinks it's the number of ensigns she has eaten for breakfast that week.   
After the plan was made, Lhandon collected communications systems from the OC with the aim of cataloguing everything that happened as well as acting as a form of universal translator. As he was transported over with the rest of the away team made up of Commander [[Lia Rouiancet]] and Lt [[Rivka Brzezinski]] he found that he had been beam on to a couch, as he came to his senses he realised that he was in living room of his family home in Gault. Nilsen was naturally happy to be home and enjoy the few moments of tranquillity. Soon he heard voices outside and found that they were the voices of Rouiancet and Brzezinski. When he met up with them he found that the could not see what he could see. All they could see was a liminal white space <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Where Am I? -https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/Ty9lGZVsQeI/m/2TvUKR8AAQAJ</ref>
Brzezinski performed some brain scans as Nilsen tried to show that they were in his farm. He set up the communications array that he brought with him and at that pointed noticed that there was someone else with them who appeared to take the form of his father. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Papa, Are You There! -https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/hnCFKvU3GJg/m/YPspe1sZAgAJ</ref> He soon realised that he could communicate with this entity and it took the form of his father to help facilitie this. This was his first experience with telepathic communication <ref name=":4">Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - The Bridge. [https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/0l6bJf_ppgo/m/EORul6D3AgAJ -https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/0l6bJf_ppgo/m/EORul6D3AgAJ]</ref>  A second entity reveal it's self to be the son of the entity and revealed himself to be Torka Mikal. He soon found that their form of communication was though the sharing of images and vocal communication was possible but different, so keeping an open mind he was successful in communicating with them and embrace this method of communication. However he needed to extend that to the other two members of his away team, and he asked if that was possible. It was and soon they were being shown the events of the final night of Alpha Brenkelvi II<ref name=":4" />
After this, Nilsen was able to show and explain to Torka and his father that the farm was his home. They then saw his crash from Echo Squad and told him that he was there. He didn't understand at that moment but would later go on to realize the lesson they were about to give. They also saw the USS Oumuamua before they found the bridge of a galaxy-class starship. Unknown to Nilsen at the time, Commodore V'Airu was in a mindscape after she was injured in the battle with the moon. To further facilitate conversation, the people he had just met asked to use his body to directly talk, where he would act as a bridge. At the same time, his consciousness would be sent to Commodore V'Airu's mindscape to be safe. He agreed to this, and seconds later appeared at the helm of the USS Crow Dog in V'Airu's mindscape. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - The Bridge. - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/0l6bJf_ppgo/m/EORul6D3AgAJ</ref>
After proving who he was to V'Airu, that process was more for his comfort than for his commanding officers'. He also met Fer’at at this time. He explained why he was there and acted as a sort of ambassador to the people of Alpha Brenkelvi II. He explained that they were Bajorans from around 50,000 years ago and also clarified that these people were not the ones who attacked them; rather, they were wiped out by what was on the moon. He then explained that this mindscape would have to stay open until his consciousness could be returned to his body. If the mindscape should fail, his consciousness may be lost. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - This Is Who They Are - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/VRv33ZhWTAk/m/AYRCqnHkAwAJ</ref> Unknown but reveal to Nilsen later, the Bajroans who were talking to Rouiancet and Brzezinski needed to depart quickly but promised to return him as soon as possible. The act ends with Nilsen's consciousness in the mindscape of the commodore but his body effectively brain dead.
'''Act 3 - Bridges And The Eye Of The Night'''
With the stakes set, Nilsen's Consciousness is for now, safe in the mindscape of Commodore V'Airu, topics turn to the purpose of the away mission, making contact with the beings of Alpha Brenkelvi II. Nilsen was happy to be a bridge between the federation and the Bajroans, and the Bajroans were more then happy to come to the table, explain who they are, tell their story and help Nilsen return home<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen & Torka Mikal - My Friend Is Coming Over For Tea! - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/pySA3GhDSBY/m/TPsU-Xj2AAAJ</ref>.
When they arrive, the Bajorans explain that they are cousins of the Bajoran people, but their people were wiped out when the "Eye of the Night" attacked. Through some translation on Nilsen's part, it is figured out that the Eye of the Night is the facility on the moon of Alpha Brenkelvi II which attacked and damaged the Oumuamua. With the Mindscape active and that information given, V'airu instructs Nirid and Fer'at to take orders to Lt. Sherlock: "Disarming, destroying, or otherwise disabling these weapons is our new first priority." This order eventually leads to a sense of justice for the Bajorans as their non-corporeal forms can now find some peace knowing the weapon is dealt with.<ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen & Torka Mikal - This Is The Eye Of The Night - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/JeAPmJK7ab0/m/g8F2paPJAAAJ</ref>
V'airu, Horque, and Almor, brainstorm ways to locate and reunite Nilsen with his body, while Nilsen grapples with the fear and anxiety of his situation. The Bajorans, represented by Torka, offer their guidance and the chance to stay with them should it all go wrong, but Nilsen remains eager to ensure his survival and share the Bajorans' stories with Bajor. Ultimately, Nilsen expresses his desire to return home, hopeful that the crew's efforts will succeed. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - I Want To Go Home - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/k35zQ3aBrjc/m/LrhiFnG-AQAJ</ref> V'airu takes his hand helps him step forward and out of the mindscape.
But, he does not return to his body, As the conference room dissolves into darkness, Nilsen finds himself in a recreated memory of a past shuttle crash, and his connection to Echo Squad. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Echo - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/UNTiLXM4Mys/m/HhJGLeIOAAAJ</ref> He unwillingly spends a period of time in this space.
This space soon starts to resemble the wreckage of Shuttle FH-421, confronts the trauma of his past. Despite being physically uninjured, he relives the crash that almost killed him and led to his expulsion from Echo Squad. Haunted by guilt and feelings of inadequacy, he struggles with the belief that he is a bad person. Surrounded by smoke and fire, Nilsen is paralyzed and helpless, reflecting on his failures and the judgments he feels he deserves. <ref>Ensign Lhandon Joseph Nilsen - Don’t Speak - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/scuLYN5kkXk/m/eR68OZlbAAAJ
</ref>
He was unsure where this took place, but theories suggest that he did not return to his own body. Those theories are proven when he doesn't wake up untill V'airu makes physical contact with him in the normal plane on existence in sick bay.  <ref>Commodore V'Airu & Commander Rouiancet: The Transfer - https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-oumuamua/c/kS0Hd7a3UUg/m/2sk8J5YQAAAJ</ref>
   
Nilsen, returned to his own body after this and recovered in sickbay.
=== Shore Leave 240012.27 ===
This shore leave starts a few days before the end of the year on the USS Oumuamua, before transitioning over the to USS Octavia E Butler in February of 2401 after the damage sustained from the last mission and subsequent mission pod explosion meant that the Oumuamua had to be sent for an extensive repair and refit operation, Meanwhile, on a personal level, Nilsen is coming to terms with his previous actions and is seeking to make amends, while the side effects of the Alpha Brenkelvi II mission come into play with Nilsen experiencing language difficulties and horrendous pain.

|Nilsen has a respectful and professional relationship with [[Ossa V'Airu|Commodore V’Airu]] and she is someone he looks up to . He has been seen seeking her guidance in challenging situations and responding to her instructions effectively during missions⁠.

:'''Lieutenant JG Lhandon Joseph Nilsen''' is a human serving as the '''Assistant Chief of Operations''' aboard the [[USS Octavia E Butler]] and previously serving as a '''helm, communications, and operations officer''' on the [[USS Oumuamua|USS ''Oumuamua'']]. Born on February 4th, 2377, Nilsen is the third child of Harold Nilsen, Moganie Thompson, Nilsen was born on [[Gault]], a small farming colony in federation space a few sectors away from Starbase 118, which is close to the Klingon/Federation boarder. Nilsen has a keen interest in rugby, cooking and motorsport.Nilsen is known for his resourcefulness, innovative thinking, and commitment to peaceful conflict resolution. He is effective in communication and empathetic, quickly rushing to the aid of others; and often able to switch into "work mode" instantly in high-stress situations. He speaks with a soft-rising accent influenced by Siberian and Eastern European dialects.  However, his career has been a troubled one, with instances of his temper leading to rash and reckless decisions leading him into trouble, and a number of cases where he gets in his own way.  In the Operations Department, Nilsen acted as an unofficial assistant & right hand man to the Chief of Operations, by virtue of his friendship with Toxin Arlill on the USS Oumuamua. This was made an official role on the Octavia E Bulter by Lt Toxin Arlill in February of 2401. This role was changed to Assistant Cheif of Operations in June of the same the year.

|'''T'Larn''' is a vulcan linguistics researcher who took a position on the USS Oumuamua to aid the crew in understanding the effects of the E-cho Micronebulua. After her assignment was complete, she elected to remain on the Oumuamua. Her main field of study the difference in syntax and speech pattern between humans and other species with a particular focus on humor
|'''Private Link Jenson''' is currently serving as a Marine aboard the [[USS Octavia E Butler]]. He has a positive disposition and often has long drawn out trains of thoughts which he often expresses. Jenson was born on Betazed to a Human Father and a Betazoid mother. His reading abilities manifest as his ability to do what he called a "vibe check." A quirk of his birth was that rather than sensing emotions and reading them in his brain, he instead see's an aura around people, with different colours representing various emotional states and intensities.

|<blockquote>"How observant. I trained as a neurologist and found a (beat) enjoyment in linguistic. My preferred area of research is humour, more specifically, the difference in syntax and speech patterns between humans and other species. If I may indulge, human humour is certainly most…universal. Humans seem to have a knack for quickly understanding and engaging with the humour of other races, even if they only have been interacting for a short while. ::To Toz:: But where are my manners, Dr Toz I have been standing here all day and I hardly asked you about your career." '''T'Larn in discussion with Dr Toz and Counsellor Brodie, Stardate 240010.11'''</blockquote>
|<blockquote>'''Jenson''': Eh, we’ll find out when they do, or we’ll just be sucked into the vacuum of space, and our bodies will float along, never to be found.
He let his mouth keep talking, as another idea popped into his head.
'''Jenson''': Or there might flesh-eating monsters in that cloud that will ::Gesturing a twist of a head with his hands:: just rip all our heads off and drink our blood like a can of core breach. ::he then gestured as if he was drinking from the can::
[[Core Breach Energy Drink|Core breach was an energy drink]] that many a Starfleet officer had relied on to get them through a long shift. Link enjoyed it, it had extra fizz. He came in a rich blue metal can and had a screw lid on top, somewhat like a flask.
He then realized that he was getting looks. He was having another one of his long drawn out trains of thoughts that left others wondering if he was;
a) Okay
or
b) Dropped on his head as a child.
'''O’Reilly''': You doing alright there Private?
He looked up at Teddy as he spoke.
'''Jenson''': What? ::shug:: It might happen. I’m just being realistic. ::offering the second slice of buttered toast to O’Reily:: Toast? Want a piece? It’s buttery!</blockquote>

|
|Torka Mikal was a Bajoran farmer who lived on Alpha Brenkelvi II approximately 65,000 years ago. He served as a representative for his people when communicating with the USS Oumuamua crew, particularly Ensign Lhandon Nilsen. Torka used Nilsen's body to communicate verbally with the away team, while Nilsen's consciousness was kept safe elsewhere.
Torka and his people existed in a non-corporeal form after their physical bodies were destroyed by what they called the "Eye of the Night" - later identified as a weapon on Alpha Brenkelvi II's moon. They communicated primarily through sharing images and ideas rather than spoken language.
 
Torka formed a quick and strong connection with Nilsen, acting as a guide and translator between his people and the Starfleet crew. He showed Nilsen and others visions of his people's past life on Alpha Brenkelvi II, including scenes from their marketplace and daily activities.
|Intercessor Ulto'Delarento is a Cheydalanga diplomat from the planet Cheyd'lang. He has a distinctive appearance, being larger and more rounded than other Chey'd, with a longer beak. Ulto speaks in a bold, deep voice and refers to himself in the third person as "this one" as is the custom for his people.
As an Intercessor, Ulto represents his people in diplomatic matters. He has shown interest in establishing relations with the Federation, while also harboring a desire to dismantle the Chey'd'bacla, the caste system on his planet. Ulto is a father to three children: Luto, Rani, and Jeto, and often expresses concern for their well-being.
 
Ulto has demonstrated complex motivations, sometimes engaging in secretive plans while maintaining a diplomatic facade. He appears to be working towards change on his planet, though his methods and true intentions are not always clear.

|Lower Tenente Domeni'Dolce is a Mongar Chey'd military officer on the planet Cheyd'lang. Key characteristics include:
- He has a short beak and tough, keratinized scales on his skin
 
- As a Mongar, he belongs to a lower caste in Chey'd society, often serving as soldiers, laborers, or technicians
 
- He rose through military ranks over 9 years to reach the position of Lower Lieutenant (equivalent to Starfleet's Lieutenant Junior Grade)
 
- Domeni'Dolce shows a desire for change in Chey'd society, particularly in elevating the status of Mongar
 
- He expresses interest in education and skill development for the Mongar, hoping they can contribute more to society beyond military roles
 
- In diplomatic situations, he appears somewhat inexperienced but eager to represent his people's interests
 
(OOC: Domeni'Dolce's character was designed to show that there is potential for change within Chey'd society.)
|Currently, in the process of being written, Ordana is a Dachlyd medical examiner who works for Special Criminal Investigations, working out of the USS Themis.
