Ayeden Blake: Difference between revisions

'''Ayden Diego Blake''' is the {{age|2391|01|22}} year old son of Starfleet Ranger [[Sky Blake]] and deceased Armory officer [[Sabor]]. He was born in 2391, and is of [[Vulcan]], [[Brekkian]] and [[Betazoid]] heritage, and is the younger brother of [[Faith Blake]].

With slightly pointed ears and brown eyes, Ayden is considered the spitting image of his father. However, he sports blonde hair, and is forming a ridge on his nose, courtesy of his Brekkian heritage. Due to the nature of his hybrid biology, he suffers frequently from lapses of energy, despite how his development should be progressing, and requires ongoing treatment to improve his quality of life - in comparison to his older sister, Ayden is considered quite timid. He is otherwise an active child (as much as he can be), curious in nature and constantly asking questions.

Shortly after Ayden was born, his mother underwent a surgery that left her with severe retrograde amnesia - she had next to no recollection of her two children, nor her husband. In denial, Sky found that bonding with Ayden was difficult. When she suffers a panic attack due to separation from him, the denial lifts somewhat, and she becomes closer to her newborn son.

Sabor dies in May of 2391, when Ayden is only 4 months old. A grieving Sky leaves Ayden and his sister Faith in the care of their grandmother, [[Lila Cole]].

In 2393, Sky relocated Ayden and his sister to Ornara after a minor dispute with their grandmother, who had been looking after the two. They were then placed in the guardianship of Sabor's surviving siblings, Syb and Veusa. It was believed that this move was also safer for them, as Brekka had been in an ongoing state of civil war.

Following an encounter with a [[Borg]] vessel, the power in Blake's quarters fail, and Ayden's mother asks for [[Tasnim Shandres]] to look after him until its restored later in the day. When he returns, Shandres delivers Blake a message sent by Zhou, offering her the XO's position aboard the {{USS|Montreal}}. When suggested to Ayden, he is skeptical about moving (again), and seems demoralized at the prospect.

When the crew is forced to evacuate the ''Veritas'' following a sudden loss of deuterium reserves, Ayden is escorted from the ship by [[Ash Makepeace]] and [[Tristam Core]] while Sky completes the evacuation. He passes out in an escape pod from the sudden g-force of re-entry to a small planetoid, causing his mother panic when she finds him again.
