SPECIES: Human

AGE: 29

AFFILIATION: Terran Republic

POSITION: Chief Science Officer

SKILLSET: Kenneth, as his position suggests, is a talented scientist. He's not very good with weapons, but makes up with it with his brilliant mind and outside-the-box thinking that's earned him the position of the Hawking's Chief Science Officer.

PERSONALITY PROFILE: Kenneth is a curious mind, always searching for answers to questions that many consider unanswerable. He's very kind however he has a tendency to become stressed in intense situations, when he is stressed, he becomes very difficult to communicate with and his brilliance begins to fall apart. These intense situations can be being yelled at, being pressured to have something done by a deadline or even combat. Kenneth's weakness is ultimately his kind heart, as it's resulted in him being very against violence and relying on his words to get him out of situations. While he's pretty impressive with weapons since his time at the academy, he tries his best to avoid using them at any cost.

HISTORY: Born on New Terra, Kenneth as a boy always found peace in finding new things and learning how they work. But what always intrigued him as a child was the endless sea of stars in the sky. Throughout his childhood and teenage years, he was the best in his grade when it came to knowledge, primarily science. After his graduation from high school, he proceeded to attend one of, if not the best college for astrophysics. After spending almost seven years studying and acing each sub-subject of astrophysics, Kenneth achieved a Master's Degree in Astrophysics. After this, he chose to take his knowledge to the stars, enlisting in Starfleet. After spending a while at the Academy and graduating, he spent two years teaching at Starfleet Academy for Astrophysics, before recently being assigned to the USS Hawking, finally achieving his dream of being able to study whatever new thing he finds out in the massive sea that is space.

FLAW: As previously stated, Kenneth is easily stressed, too kind and overall a pacifist. His kind nature prevents him from confrontation and relying on weapons. If he becomes too stressed, instead of becoming upset, he "shuts down" more or less. He becomes very difficult to work with and his brilliant mind stops functioning.

NAME:
Zhuan Jianhong (Goes by Hong)

SPECIES:
Human

AGE:
42

AFFILIATION:
Terran Republic

POSITION:
Chief Engineer

SKILLSET:
Jianhong has a photographic memory coupled with an enormous IQ has made him one of the foremost experts in mechanics. Holding several doctorate degrees in engineering that range from Electrical, Atomic/Fusion and Liquid mechanics. Despite his large degree of education though Jianhong is a physically fit individual, a practitioner or Tai Chi and meditation for clarity, which he contributes to his success and a calm demeanor under the most crucial circumstances.

PERSONALITY PROFILE:
Jianhong is a very strong believer in karma. As the saying goes “What comes around, goes around”. A perfectionist when it comes to work. He demands it for the individuals that he has under him, but doesn’t let diligence and hard work go unrewarded. A lot of his strength and beliefs comes from his cultural heritage, his quarters are decorated with such items. A practicer of calligraphy and the cello which helps soothes the weary soul.

HISTORY:
Jianhong come from the Earth, the oldest of two children from a respected household in Hong Kong. His parents didn’t marry for love but rather for intellect, which shows since both of the children graduated with their respective degrees by the time they turned 20. Taking various jobs in college’s and the private sector but he felt a longing for something greater.

During his time in the private sector he seen a recruitment ad for starfleet. It drew his curiosity and did some research into the matter and within the week he’d left his job for Starfleet. It was due to fact that he believed that Starfleet engineers were sloppy at best but whatever it was, it was enough to make the young man leave for the stars. With his extensive education he was promoted to the head of engineering of the USS Hornet.

His career skyrocketed and so did the war. He carried on his duties with the utmost diligence, the USS Hornet was the most impeccably maintained. Its systems never ran smoother as the war carried on giving his captain at the time more energy to dispose of fighting in the conflict. Receiving numerous accomodations during the war for his efforts keeping the ship running and juicing the engines when situations called for it.

During the final months of the war though Jianhong had received a dire news. His sister had died by the hands of the Martian Legion. She’d been stationed on the border for humanitarian efforts to cure the sick and injured. Skirmishing ships had been running amok in that area of space with the Martian Federation destroying the small Starfleet force and bombarding the planet Jianhong’s sister Chunhua.

It was after this time he took a leave of absence to grieve, but ended up taking a desk job at Starfleet. Teaching future engineers of Starfleet how to best maintain their ships. Longing for the stars again or just getting out of the classroom, he renewed his tenure as the Chief of Engineering on the USS Hornet but only to be redirected to the USS Hawking. Seeing the need for one of the best.

FLAW: While there is peace between Starfleet and the Martian Legion. He dislikes the prospects of working besides them and often makes slights against them or feels like their slighting him. No matter who it was it just feels wrong to him.

NAME: Damaris Glenn

SPECIES: Human

AGE: 29

AFFILIATION: Terran Republic

POSITION: Helmsman/Navigations

SKILLSET: Damaris is a skilled helmsman and navigator. She has worked her way up through the ranks in Operations with only minor skills in Engineering. She has no talent Medical. Damaris’ personality dictates her to become a negotiator one day. She has the foundations; patience, reading people’s behavior and knowing when to say the right thing. Damaris is always able to understand both sides of an argument, but needs an accomplished negotiator to guide her in the proper direction.

As a young woman, Damaris trained in various martial arts including Kempo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Krav Maga. She holds an equivalent to a third-degree black belt in a mixed martial art set. Her abilities in unarmed combat have provided the career Terran officer with a heightened confidence and level of discipline. She can read body language and whether or not someone is about to attack. She has had experience in a few weapons including kamas, bo staff, nunchukus and the sword as well as a hand-held energy weapon.

PERSONALITY PROFILE: Damaris is a thrill seeker and a risk taker. “You can’t win if you don’t play.” She is curious about the universe, but considers herself a big picture realist. She has been cursed or blessed with a double vision. This insight allows her to see multiple sides to every story. Most of the time this is an advantage when attempting problem-solving because her ideas are also grounded in reality. She is not given to flights of fantasy overwhelmed by unrealistic idealism. She can be a rock to those who take to the stars figuratively, bringing them back to the real world.

Damaris is objective, refusing to take opinions on subjects. Some would say she is wishy-washy, she prefers the term flexible. Her flexibility helps her to adapt to changing conditions and understands what moves to make next in any given situation due to changing parameters. The challenges of operating in deep space excite her thrill-seeking tendencies. Any risks she takes with the ship are calculated. She would never take an action that contained unnecessary risks where she had not already considered the consequences. Above all, Damaris Glenn is intelligent.

HISTORY: Damaris Glenn was born and raised in Holyoke, Massachusetts, United States of America to an African American father and a Spanish-speaking Latin mother. She excelled in academics and athletics, training in martial arts as young as seven years of age. She excelled in Karate demonstrations as a teen feeling very natural with the moves. In her late teens, after receiving a black belt in Kempo, she began training in BJJ.

She studied Earth history at the University of Massachusetts and was accepted into the Terran Republic Starfleet Academy after receiving a baccalaureate degree. While at UMASS she continued training in BJJ and kept her body in excellent shape. She always looked for ways to challenge herself physically through running marathons or various obstacle courses hosted in the New England area.

While at Starfleet, she received her black belt in BJJ and began training in Krav Maga. She learned that the Israeli martial art system was a common sense system of self-defense that integrated many other fighting styles including Kempo and BJJ. Her background did give her an advantage, especially in sparring with classmates.

While at the academy, she trained in operations focusing on helm operations and navigations. Her first assignment aboard the Renaissance, a Science/Exploratory ship as the ship’s helmsman. Ensign Glenn had some difficulties early on but eventually blended well with the crew and was promoted to Lieutenant Junior Grade after eighteen months’ time in service. Lieutenant JG Damaris Glenn contracted a rare form of influenza while with an away team on a distant world. She was quarantined in sick bay aboard the Renaissance for eight weeks before her fever broke and she was able to return to duty. The medical personal aboard ship took several biopsies, studying her symptoms and biological changes to determine the causes of her flu and how to treat it. Eventually, they named her form of influenza the Glenn Flu.

After four years in Terran Republic Star Fleet, Damaris was promoted to Lieutenant and is awaiting assignment to her next ship. It is rumored she will be posted to the Hawking. Damaris has a mild intrepidation but ultimately believes she will do fine.

FLAW: Commander Glenn is a gambler who is willing to take a risk herself. She is not willing to risk others. She can be overly confident, but is also reticent. As long as she does not speak, one will not see her arrogance displayed. If she witnesses weaknesses in others, she often times mentally writes them off. This translates as a lack of confidence in her peers.
