Activities:
Ayako, despite always having a demanding job (Starfleet or civilian), always
makes time to enjoy the many traditional activities introduced to her by her
father and mother.  She especially enjoys traditional swordsmanship (Kendo in
Japan, Kumdo in Korea), Hapkido and Aikido, and the tamer, though far more
difficult arts of the tea ceremony, flower arrangement and calligraphy. 
She was an Olympic-class swimmer in her youth and scored bronze at the 2380
games in the 100 meter women’s freestyle and 1000 meter women’s relay.  She
still competes in many amateur swim events and remains world-class for her age
group and even one or two groups below.

III.  Biographical Notes
------------------------
A.  Chronology (tabular form):
-----------------------------
0-17:  Lived with parents.
14-17:  Attended high school in Kongju, which while once a capital city in the
4th century AD, is now little more than a small town though possessing a very
large community of artisans of traditional crafts.  Her father is in very high
renown throughout Asia, and is declared a “living treasure” by both the Korean
and Japanese cultural governments.
18-22:  Starfleet Academy, graduated as Ensign, assigned USS Yorktown as
Assistant security Officer, served on her during the Dominion war.
23-30:  Served on USS Ralleigh, promoted Lieutenant JG (Assistant Ops) and
Lieutenant (Operations Officer).
30-34:  Promoted Lieutenant Commander, assigned as Operations Officer USS
Enterprise E
35-43:  Promoted Commander and transferred into Diplomatic Corps.  Attended
Starfleet Academy for Ph.D in Political Science, Promoted Captain
44-53:  Retired from Starfleet and together with her husband, bought and operated
a cruise ship, the “Pearl of Asia”, operating luxury tours on the Pacific Ocean.
54:  Pearl of Asia was attacked by pirates off the coast of Formosa, with most
of the passengers and crew murdered.  Commander Kimura (she was the XO and was
in charge of entertainment) led a few of the survivors in an escape from the
ship’s hold, then engaged the pirates in a battle for control of the ship. 
Pearl of Asia was scuttled by the pirates, but Kimura and the survivors (14 in
all) were able to take over the pirate’s disguised fishing boat and put safely
into port at Taipei.
With her husband among the casualties, Ayako observed two weeks of mourning,
then contacted her brother, then a Starfleet Admiral, who facilitated her return
to Starfleet.  Due to her 11 years of retirement, she was recommissioned as a
Lieutenant Commander (two steps lower than her highest prior rank) and sent to
the academy for a refresher course in Operations, then with her brother’s help,
was placed as Operations Officer/2nd Officer on USS Yorktown, the same ship where
her daughter served as Assistant Tactical Officer.
55 Promoted Commander, assigned as CO USS Kirov
56 After a nearly-successful assassination attempt, Ayako was decertified for
starship duty on account of irreparable nerve damage in her reattached left arm. 
Assigned Starfleet academy as professor of political science.
57 Promoted Captain.  Retired from Starfleet, but recalled to active duty as a
Federation Ambassador.
B.  Background Summary:
-----------------------
Ayako already had a full Starfleet career which spanned 21 years and saw her rise
through the ranks up through Lieutenant Commander and Chief of Operations on a
starship, and then branch into diplomatic service, which she progressed through
Captain.
She is a veteran of the Dominion war and was present at the battle of Cardassia
Prime.
11-years-ago Ayako and her husband, himself a Starfleet Captain, retired from
Starfleet and bought an ocean-going cruise ship, the “Pearl of Asia”, which
offered luxury cruises in the trappings of the great cruise ships of the 1920s and
1930s.  The business was extremely successful and they were very happy, until the
ship, which was carrying a dignitary, was the target of Formosan pirates.  The
ship was sunk, her husband killed (she was wounded), but Kimura led a counter-
attack and took over the pirates’ fishing vessel and returned to Taipei.
After the loss of her husband, she wanted to spend time with her daughter and
occupy herself again with meaningful work, and so with the help of her older
brother, an Admiral in Starfleet Finance, strings were pulled and at the age of
54, she was recommissioned as a Lieutenant Commander and assigned as Operations
Officer of the USS Yorktown.
After a brief though successful tour of duty on Yorktown, Ayako was promoted to
full Commander and assigned as the Captain of the USS Kirov, a heavy cruiser.
Ayako’s tenure on the Kirov was brief at only one year, and ended when an
assassin, after killing a VIP guest on the ship, almost killed Commander Kimura,
severing her left arm at the shoulder.  While the cut was clean, the surgery to
reattach the arm did not go well, and ultimately the arm while reattached,
suffered from severe nerve damage resulting in excruciating pain accompanying most
movement.  In all, it took almost 18 months for her recovery and return to the
active duty list, with a medical disqualification from front-line starship duty.

V.  Skills Profile
------------------
Ayako is a very skilled manager and officer, and while a bit out of date in the
latest starship technology, not so much so that she can’t easily adapt.  She is
also very skilled in diplomacy and negotiation, and while she acts according to
her own dual Japanese and Korean cultural heritage, is very knowledgeable about
many other cultures and customs throughout the Federation and beyond.
In addition to her professional skills, Ayako is an extremely skilled swordswoman
and martial artist, and an accomplished practitioner of the Japanese tea ceremony,
flower arrangement and Chinese Caligraphy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
VI.  Recent Fitness Report
--------------------------
For a woman of 57 years, Ayako is exceptionally fit.  She has a slight limp from
some nerve and muscle damage to her left knee.  The damage is irreparable, the
result of a disruptor burn 6-months-ago.  Her left arm has full range of motion
and strength, but lacks much fine motor control and is excruciatingly painful if
moved at more than a snail’s pace.  It is the arm that disqualified her for front-
line ship duty, though Ayako does possess the discipline to ignore the pain.
It is obvious that Ayako has taken excellent care of herself, and has the strength
and stamina of a woman twenty-years younger.
Ayako is an avid swimmer and until she re-entered Starfleet, she was active in
competive events, including two bronze medals in individual and relay swim events
at the 2380 olympics, two silver medals for the 400 and 1000 meter freestyle swim
in the Asian Games (age 30 and 34) and a gold medal in the 2412 Silver Olympiad
(for humans over age 50).
Her left arm was surgically reattached following an encounter with an assassin that
nearly left her dead.  The arm retains full strength and range of motion, but is
lacking in fine motor control and is extremely painful to move quickly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
VII.  Psychological Profile
---------------------------
Ambassador Kimura retains a very calm and balanced outlook and rarely allows herself
to come even close to losing control.  While she cannot be read by telepaths, the
result of diplomatic training received as part of her doctorate program, she is
extremely open and easy to talk to.  I can easily see how this woman was once among
the Federation’s top negotiators and have little doubt that she will be again in her
posting to DS13.

VIII.  Current Recreational Interests
-------------------------------------
Kendo, Caligraphy, tea ceremony, flower arrangement, Competitive Swimming
------------------------------------------------------------------------
IX.  Miscellaneous Information
------------------------------
Ayako Kimura looks extremely young for her age, easily passing for thirty if she
dies her hair black, which she usually does.  Her limp is slight and she can compensate
for it with concentration, and will try to do so around shipmates.  The disabilities to
her arm are unnoticeable to casual observers, even when not concentrating, but on close
examination it can be noticed that she uses her right arm exclusively for everything
involving detail work.
She is extremely proud and believes in self-sufficiency and personal integrity.  She
won’t ever allow others to see any weakness, and keeps her problems to herself.  She
will never engage in small talk and is a firm believer in keeping her mouth shut unless
she actually has something to say.
X. Roleplay Notes
---------------------
Ayako is “Psi-Null”, meaning that telepaths and empaths do not read anything from her. 
While powerful invasive techniques, such as a Vulcan mind meld may eventually work, casual
contact and active, though non-intrusive scans do not.  Empaths and telepaths will simply
“look” right past her as though she isn’t there unless specifically trying, and then will
simply find that her surface thoughts literally ARE so much of the normal psionic noise
that such readers are accustomed to tuning out.
This is not a normal skill, but rather something that she was taught by a Vulcan master as
part of individual training for negotiating the treaty of Praxus.
