B. Background Summary:
----------------------
Callista Veld- who is called "Cal" by almost everyone except her mother and
her more famous older cousin, Cayle- is relatively new to Star Fleet, having
graduated from the Academy only within the past year.  However, her drive
and determination have already earned her a promotion and a new billet-
Operations Manager on Star Fleet's new destroyer testbed, TESLA II.
Cal is what one would call "bright-eyed and bushy-tailed," meaning that
she still sees things with an almost child-like enthusiasm- and the naivity
that invariably goes hand-in-hand with such a perspective.  This is generally
due to having lived a mostly sheltered life; after the death of her father,
a colonel in the Marine Corps (and ADM Conrad veld's younger brother) during
the Borg Incursions of 2398, her mother attempted her to steer her away from
all things military, overprotecting her in an effort to keep her from
following in the Veld family footsteps.  This, obviously, eventually failed;
when Cal was accepted into Star Fleet Academy, her mother, for a time, refused
to allow Cal to attend.  Only the timely intervention by her older cousin
Cayle, then a brand-new LCDR and XO on Deep Space 13, allowed Cal to go.
Cal was relatively untouched by Cayle's return from her abduction for a
couple of reasons: firstly, Cal was just starting her 3rd year at the
Academy when Cayle returned; secondly, the families, since Kenneth Veld's
death 17 years ago, have not been as close as they had been beforehand,
largely due to Lauren Veld's resentment of the military in general.
As a result of this, Cal has managed to retain the idealistic prinicipals
she learned growing up.  Her first tour of duty was relatively quiet; her
promotion comes largely due to need.  However, Cal is at least a competent
officer who has shown the potential to become more than her grades and
records from the Academy suggests.
On another note, Cal is a superb, world-class athlete, much more athletic
than anyone else in her family.  She played soccer at high levels through
high school and the Academy, eventually being chosen as a member of the Sol
system-wide and Earth teams in 2312, 13 14 and this year.
As an attacking midfielder, she displayed a flair for both creating and
scoring goals the likes of which are rarely seen in a single individual.
As such, early in her competitive career, she was often played at either
striker or center-forward.  As a natural goal scorer, she excelled in
that position; however, the creative side of her game that broke down
oppposing defenses was rarely seen.  It was only after her selection to the
Sol team- a team with a glut of strikers already- that forced her move to
midfield general and allowed the rest of her game to reveal itself.  Her
performances on the intergalactic level have ranged from merely "solid"
to "breathtaking" and "exquisite."  (NPRG- think of her as a 25th century
version of Mia Hamm combined with the finesse and grace of Zinedine Zidane.)
With her taking this deep-space assignment, her soccer career has been
placed on hold for now.  However, one can expect the invitations to represent
Earth and the Sol System in the Galactic Cup and other intergalactic
tournaments to continue to flow in...
There is no animosity between Cal and Cayle, and despite an early frostiness
on Cal's end, they have actually grown closer, with Cal calling on her
older cousin for advice and cousel from time to time.
C. Personality Summary:
-----------------------
As mentioned above, Cal is very idealistic and naive as to the ways of
the "real" galaxy; as of yet, Star Fleet service has not managed to burn
this naivity from her.  She often sees things in black and white, with
little room for anything in between- things are either good or bad, right
or wrong, with little room for differing perspectives.  As such, she
can be closed-minded at times.  However, this is not due to a lack of
intelligence- it is just a lack of real-world experience.
As a general rule, when things happen that do not fit into her little
world, she acts as though they never happened.  However, at some point
in her Star Fleet career, she will find that she won't be able to do
this.  When that happens, one can expect the famous Veld temper that
she shares with her cousin and uncle to surface.
Despite her average grades in the Academy, Cal is a leader, one of the
confidence and self-assuredness one would expect from a world-class
athlete.  This makes her a natural department head and manager of
people- ideal as Operations Manager.
However, while her natural leadership talents have served her well in Star
Fleet, her reliance on "natural gifts" has not always done so; she doesn't
do a whole lot of preparatory work, relying on her natural abilities as
all gifted athletes do.  In short, she doesn't so much "think" about a
problem so much as she just "does" the work.  This is the curse of the
natural athlete- rarely do they make good coaches, as they never to actually
learn to play the sport of their choice.  They always just did what came
naturally instead of practicing to learn to do the same thing.
One note on her physical appearance: she looks as though she could be Cayle's
kid sister- a bit shorter and stockier due to her greater muscle mass, but
the facial features and structure, as with the eye color, are the same as her
older cousin's.  Only the hair color is different.

V. Skills Profile
==================
A driven officer who has natural leadership talents.  Ability to understand
tactics is bourne from athletic gifts- has "vision" both on and off field
field of play.  Break down opposing forces as she breaks down defenses on
soccer pitch.  Good at hand-to-hand combat; average with phaser.

VI. Recent Fitness Reports
==========================
Forthcoming in the near future.
==========================================================================
VII. Current Recreational Interests
===================================
Soccer in the holodeck.
==========================================================================
VIII. MIscelleneous Notes
=========================
Cal has not had a noteworthy career to date; her professional experiences
on USS TESLA II were lukewarm at best due to her inability to balance
her personal feelings and principles against the mission's objectives.
As seems typical of all Veld officers, Cal will not simply obey an order
for the sake of obeying; however, as she does not have eithe rher uncle's
(the CINCSF) of her cousin's (the highly-decorated CO of USS CIRCE)
career to back up her opinions as of yet, she has found herself on the
short end of more than one fitness report.  Recent successes aboard KIROV,
however, have bolstered her confidence and resurrected her career.
Personally, however, she had just begun a relationship (against regulations)
with the TESLA's XO, LT Dant Bladum, when she was transferred.  She
has continued this relationship at a distance to date, though she does feel
the bonds between them to be lessening somewhat.
