Crewman '''Tasnim "Taz" Shandres''' is the {{age|2377|11|19}}-year-old [[Kriosian]]/[[Betazoid]] daughter of Ki and [[Roshanara Shandres (alternate)|Roshanara Shandres]] in an alternate universe where the Federation lost the [[Dominion War]]. After becoming stranded in the prime universe in 2392 by herself, she lived briefly with the prime-[[Roshanara Rahman]] aboard the {{USS|Invicta}} before moving to [[Esperance]] with her father's prime counterpart. She later enlisted in Starfleet in 2394 and served aboard the {{USS|Veritas}} before being assigned to the {{USS|Endurance}} in 2398.

Born in 2377, Taz only knows of her mother's home through stories. Her father also disappeared when she was young, presumably killed fighting the Dominion on Betazed.

==FedNet popularity==
Since before joining Starfleet, Taz has enjoyed making silly videos for FedNet, a hobby she began as a teenager aboard the {{USS|Invicta}}. Posting prank videos she had made that featured her boss chief engineer [[Geoffrey Teller]] aboard the {{USS|Veritas}} gradually increased her viewership.
In 2399, Taz made a series of short videos by Taz called "We are Starfleet" that paired the organization's famous recruitment slogan with contrasting clips of crewmen aboard the {{USS|Endurance}} in humorous and often mundane work situations. The series subsequently went viral. While Starfleet Command found it mostly harmless and perhaps even useful to boost the organization's [https://fednewsservice.com/2016/03/24/starfleet-academy-applications-drop-as-civilian-opportunities-increase/ struggling recruitment numbers], her department head aboard the ''Endurance'' ordered her to refrain from filming any more videos without clearance from him and the ''Endurance'' command staff.

*'''[[Geoffrey Teller]]''', the chief engineer of the {{USS|Veritas}} and her "buddy" (per the "buddy system"). While Taz respects Teller deeply, that doesn't stop her from enjoying a prank at his expense for the views on the FedNet social channels--much to her "aunt" Captain Rahman's disapproval
*'''[[Tristam Core]]''', Captain Rahman's partner. Taz appreciates that Tristam doesn't treat her like a young child. Through working with him and learning more about engineering, she developed a passion for components engineering.
