Personal History

Trel'lis was born Elizabeth Reed in Garfield, New Jersey, to Peter and Cynthia Reed, in Earth's 20th Century. Shortly thereafter, they moved to Chicago, Illinois. Elizabeth had 2 other siblings, Judi and Karen 5-6 years apart, with Elizabeth being the oldest. Elizabeth experienced a normal childhood, growing up in a major city, going to the public schools, all the way up through high school. Afterwards, she pursued a career in entertainment, leaning towards stand-up comedy. Soon she got her first "big break", on a local level, being invited to a special, day-long "Amateur Comedy" competition event, at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, in Chicago's Millennium Park. That day started out normally, with Ms Reed, now aged 34, beginning her day at the pavilion gearing up for the competition, by practicing her routine. She had devised a headpiece, consisting of an elastic headband with a miniature pair of HSS pipes, resembling those at the "ends" of the Pritzker Pavilion's unique trellis system. She had already "established" herself as a local comedienne, taking the stage name "Dusty Trellis" and the day of the event started out normally. Unbeknownst to her and everyone, a large, cloaked, "Adaption vessel" settled into a geosynchonous orbit, undetected by the world's atmospheric sensor systems. The vessel, settled over Chicago, and seemed to follow Reed's progress. The inhabitants of this large vessel were relatively unknown, but called themselves Xelarians, and traveled millions of light-years, in search of a new earth-born "Guardian". Xelarians were a distant cousin of the Thalaxians, only their skin was a pale yellow, with golden eyes and deep orange hair and are consider "Guardian-makers". They waited until the event was over, that evening and Reed was ready to leave, having come in third, that year. It was relatively late and the Pritzker Pavilion was almost completely empty, save for the cleanup and backstage crews and Millenium Park Security. As she finally made her way out of the backstage area and began her walk, off the Pavilion grounds, a robed figure "descended from the vessel, and settled atop the highest point of the trellis of curved steel HSS pipes. The figure made his presence known, only to her, by telekinetically lifting "Dusty" off the ground and gently depositing her atop the trellis, facing him. After a brief explanation, he told her he was there to "appoint" her as the "Guardian", of Chicago and of the Pritzker Pavilion. The man identified himself as Xi'tun of Xelara and proceeded to explain his presence and what was to be done to her.

He then proceeded to initiate the procedure, to "transform" Dusty, into a full "Guardian", infusing her with empathic ability and complete knowledge of all martial arts, known to Earth. Then a small vortex formed, at the base of her skull, surrounding the "trellis pipes" of her headpiece, "grafting" it, through molecular mutation, thus turning it into "living" steel. He then gave her a transparent container, carrying an isolinear chip. This contained all the information need to confirm what had been done to Dusty Trellis. This infusion, which was a type of mental transfer/blending is what triggered the acquisition of her abilities and martial arts skills. As a result of the "transformation and "grafting" procedures, infusion, "Dusty" now had many of the same attributes of the Xelarian race. The retention of original skin/hair/eye color and the "grafting" of the "trellis", the "V"-shaped "pipes" which also consisted of living tissue, despite it looking and feeling like HSS pipes. One of the attributes acquired was an extended lifespan - aging one Xelarian year, for every one HUNDRED Earth years, similar to the Thalaxian aging rate. This began, after she "de-aged" to 21 years old. So now she possessed the body of a 21-year-old, fit and athletic. Another "change" was that, Dusty was given the name, "Trel'lis", in reference to the Pritzker Pavilion's trellis system, which supported the speakers of the LARES sound system! The family, friends had to address her by that new name. As Dusty discovered the full potential of her abilities, some of which manifested, by her will. Trel'lis began to act independently, yet within the parameters of State and Federal Law. By the time Starfleet was formed, Trel'lis was already centuries old, yet appeared to be in her early 20s. She still hesitated to join as she felt there was more to do. Finally, one year, after a particularly uneventful year, Trel'lis, became restless and disillusioned with life as a whole. She had thought about Starfleet Academy, and subsequently, Trel'lis applied for and was accepted to Starfleet Academy, majoring in Ship and Planetary Security.

Her Academy years were a challenge, both to Trel'lis and the staff, for whenever she felt inclined, she tended to try their patience with her "dog-bark" pranks! Trel'lis eventually graduated with a grade point average equivelant of 3.3. Upon graduation,Trel'lis was assigned to a small, Steamrunner-class vessel, until she received transfer orders to her new assignment.

Medical/Psychology Report

  • Trel'lis has the qualities of a normal humanoid, despite her special abilities.

The main way to prevent access to special abilities, is to psionically restrict the "access" to her abilities and martial arts skills. Plus, Trel'lis can be hurt, just like anyone else, but she is able to "heal", by auto-regenerating her "trellis", if damaged or destroyed, or through modified regenerators "tuned" to her "trellis's molecular structure. This "trellis" serves no real purpose, except as an outward sign of the DNA infusion process. The species, Xelarians, that infused Trel'lis, has yet to be formally contacted, due to their location being unknown at this time, much like the Thalaxians, who infused Acel'a, Am'tra and others. Their vessel was so well cloaked, that 20th-Century technology was inadequate in its detection. Although Trel'lis is 458, she appears to be only 23, or so, do the altered aging process. The only prior injuries, were to her "trellis", both in the line of "duty", as a Guardian and in Starfleet. Trel'lis tends to be a bit "assertive", to the point of almost-reckless, which tends to draw unwanted, negative attention, she is, however striving to correct this weakness.
