Commendations
2392-03-20: Commendation from CAPT Roger McClelland, CO USS AMAZONAS
LT Mercer has shown significant interest in everything related
to Security and Intelligence. His expertise has grown very
quickly to an extend which made him the one and only choice
for INTEL on the fleet's flagship USS AMAZONAS. Seeing him
leaving and changing uniform from red to gray is a pity for my
ship but at least the best decision LT Mercer could do for his
future career.
SD 020112: classified (see background information 2)
------------------------------------------------------------
Awards
SD 020112: 'Silver Star'
SD 020112: 'Pike Medallion for Heroic Injury'
------------------------------------------------------------
Psychological Profile
LCDR Mercer is a stable and deliberate character. Fellow-officers often
mistake this for lethargy and/or hesitation but that is completely
wrong. David Mercer is one of the fastest thinkers and actors I have
seen in my professional career - he simply considers all options before
acting. In private David Mercer is a reliable and congenial man.
Sometimes he is even up for pranks. His humor is ironic and sarcastic -
sometimes also a bit cynical. His razor-sharp mind and his keen
language can be a pain in someone's mind.

------------------------------------------------------------
Background Information
1) LCDR Mercer decided to leave Starfleet after 5 years of service and
a promising career. The reason was that he felt uncomfortable travelling
around in space when there was so much crime in the streets of the planets
themselves. Following this call he attended courses at several private
academies also frequented by regular law enforcement organisations.
There he got in touch with SECIS operatives and was fascinated by the
job they did.
2) The commendation from SD 020112 is classified due to the nature of
the mission for which LCDR Mercer had earned it. The mission was a
counter-intel mission which uncovered Romulan operatives who had deeply
infiltrated Starfleet Marine Corps as well as Starfleet Medical. During
surveillance of suspects his cover was accidently blown up by a fellow
operative. The fellow operative died in the following attack of a
Cardassian assault-team and Mercer was wounded. Only the immediate
action of a rapid response team installed for their backup could save
his life.
3) On SD 121107 Mr. Mercer lost a complete investigation team due to
misinformation. SECIS had been provided information about drug-dealers
by other UFP-services but the information had proven wrong. The whole
team had been wiped out in a counter-attack from the dealers. The
estimation about their strenght had been 400% below their real
headcount. During the proceedings the court came to conclusion that it
had not been misplanning of the operation and the responsibility for
the disaster was outside of SECIS. Nevertheless Mercer was so fed up
with the inter- and intra-organisational problems that he resigned from
SECIS. A sabbatical year he thought would serve him well to decide for
his future career.
------------------------------------------------------------
Notes
1) To illustrate Mercer's character and sense of humor the following
comment from Mercer may add some atmosphere: When he was asked why he
had gone from Vienna to Sydney for his studies, Mercer answered that he
was tired of telling all the people he got acquainted to that there are
no kangaroos in Austria.

Unfortunately he knows about his talent, and relies upon it, rather than procedure. Were I in command I would place this cadet in a pilot's chair and try to train his talent into something better than it is." Capt. Kit Hiller (Academy Flight Instructor) "We could have used a hot-head like him back in the old days of the Federation. Now he would just be a hinderance... He has heart though, that much is for sure. However the Federation needs people now with a level head. His temper will get him and many others killed. His personality would have been more useful generations before, not now." Dr. Globin ( Pyschological evaluator) "Never in my life have I met a more rude,inconsiderate, rash, hotheaded, egotistical, and undesirable individual in my career as Assistant Headmaster of the Academy. He constantly is in trouble with both administration and with the local law enforcement. I see in his eyes the potential he has of becoming an important asset for the Federation however he refuses to even push himself. Strange that a woman of such elegance and distinction as Dr. Atolya Prince could ever be the mother of such a child." Assist. Headmaster of Starfleet Academy Adm. K'Loo "In a combat situation I would want a warrior to be there beside me. Like his father, John Prince is a warrior. He may be difficult to get along with but because of his background environment it's as if he was created for war. If the Federation refuses him I will take him under my command. As a warrior." Klingon Consul General H'Qal Kroman "Small built, incredible heart." Cmd. Ali

Notes:
The senior chief is a bit on the stocky side, but is not fat in any way.
He is heavily muscled. He has the face of a prize-fighter. Even modern
medicine has not been able to completely alleviate the effect of many
broken noses and cauliflowered ears. Burreson is generally a good-
humored man, but can be dangerous when pushed. His fighting style is
not elegant and bears little respemblance to any organized for of
martial arts, but it is an effective collection on moves learned from
decades of street and bar fighting.
About eight years ago, for no clear external reason, the senior chief
seems to have finally cleaned up his act. At about that time, he seems
to have developed a friendship with a green security officer aboard USS
PROMETHEUS. That officer, CDR Jack Danger, is presently XO of USS NOVA.
Burreson is one the the first generation of Federation citizens to have
received life extension treatments. As such his physical age is,
effectively, frozen in his late thirties/early forties. Unlike later
generation recipients he actually looks like a fully mature adult in the
prime of his life. Someone who recieves third or forth generation
treatments will look like they are in their late teens until they are
about thirty and will still look to be in their mid-20's by the time they
are 50.
---
An excerpt from "USS CIRCE: The Lower Decks perspective"
The new navigation officer on CIRCE looked like he might fit into the
former and the new propulsion division commander seemed to be the latter.
Of course Burreson knew well enough not to let first impressions color
his perceptions too much. It was possible that the rating had really
screwed up and tried to blame his passenger. Of course that seemed odd.
Someone had probably just pushed the rating to keep a schedule and the
rating let the officer do the pushing. It might not even have been --
and in fact probably was not -- the young lieutenant's fault. Burreson
knew that he wouldn't have allowed himself to be pushed, even when he
was much younger. Of course that -- and a perpensity for fighting and
drinking and gambling and unproven allegations of black marketeering
and some question about unathorized modifications to a holodeck --
explained why the 73 year-old Burreson was "only" a senior chief. With
a wry internal grin that never reached his face he recalled that he had
made senior chief an astounding 7 times before actually keeping the
second star over his chevrons and that it had taken almost as long to
keep the first.
Mark Twain once said, 'God protect fools and children.' The senior chief
hoped devoutly that he was correct. And, while the crew of CIRCE weren't
precisely children, they at least looked that way to Burreson who had
grown up in a time when people actually looked their age and before life
extending treatments meant that he would live another two centuries
while his parents had both died in the last few year at less than 110.
How interesting it would be if they did not revise the service stripes
on the enlisted uniform. He already had 14 of them stretching most of
the way up his forearm. It would become ludicrous long before he had 50.

at age 15 and graduates 5 years later)
B. Service Schools Attended:
C. Qualifications: MD, PhD in toxicology
D. Star Fleet Academy Record:
Class Rank: Top 5%
Academic Major: Biology and Xenobiology
Professional Major: Medicine
Commendations (number and details): 1
Dr Luong's response to the simulated medical riot on board the USS
Forrest was both as you expect of a man with his background and
also utterly unique. His decision to introduce an antidote
though the drinking water and to program the force fields to
allow those unaffected to pass through was inspired and should
serve as an example of innovative thinking.
Reprimands (number and details): 1
Cadet Luong refused to give the order to storm a secured house using
fragmentation grenades, instead using flash bangs and phasers
set to stun. It had been explained previously that the
opponents possessed appropriate protective gear to defend
themselves against various non lethal grenades. Although his
unorthodox strategy did result in success, it exceeded the
time limit set for the exercise. Upon being dressed down by
the instructor, the cadet chose to make a remark comparing the
instructor to a butcher. Reprimand registered under
insubordination.
Currently Possess' the following major & minor awards (in chronological
order):
Silver Lifesaving Medal
Gold Lifesaving Medal
Leonard McCoy Medal of Merit
Distinguished Service Medal
Wounded Lion
III. Biographical Notes:
0-8: Lived on Alpha Centauri with his parents.
9-14: Attended High School
15-20: Attended Nightingale Medical College.
21-29: Residency at St George Hospital. During his time there he
commences and completes his PhD in toxicology.
30-36: Surgeon on staff. Divides his time between surgery and
toxicology. At age 34 he heads up the hospitals
toxicology unit
37: Joined the Navy as a Doctor and proceeded through their basic
training and officer training programmes.
38-40: Following graduation is promoted to LT. Serves briefly on the
USS ATLAS. However, is soon transferred back to Earth following
the creation of a new joint Marine/Naval unit to examine the use
of alternative weapons against the Borg. During an accident on
site which kills many of the staff, he escapes, saving several
lives in the process. Furthermore his actions safeguard the
whole medical research station. Awarded the Silver Lifesaving
Medal. The unit is disbanded for the time being.
41-42: Transferred back to ALB, assisting in completing the training
of Naval medical staff. Begins widening his medical studies
into other area that may have an impact on his toxicology work
such as biology, genetics and biochemical engineering, though
he takes no formal qualifications.
43-48: Moved to the Chemical Warfare Division. When he initially
protests and threatens to resign his commission he is moved to
work on antidotes and immunisations. Is awarded the Gold
Lifesaving Medal for his quick thinking during a biological
weapons leak. Protests strongly about the use of such weapons,
pointing out this is the second such leak he has been forced to
deal with in 10 years. Promoted to LT CMDR at age 47.
49-55: Heads the division in charge of creating antidotes for enemy
chemical weapons. Is awarded The Leonard McCoy Medal of Merit
following the creation of several different forms of
immunisation. Promoted to CMDR at age 54. Contacted by an
agent of "unknown power" who explains promotion was their doing
and that if he helps them he will be helping the Federation.
Ning says nothing believing them to be opportunists trying to
benefit from his promotion.
56: Rotated out to head medical facility on new federation
protectorate. Commands Medical Division during military coup
on Gravis Alpha IV. Awarded DSM for treating ALL injured
parties with equal skill, something that aids greatly during
the peace negotiations. Finally realising that to make a real
difference with Star Fleet he needs increased authority, Ning
looks for a transfer to enhance his promotion prospects.
57-63: Serves on the USS Olympic as CMO. The Olympic sees action in
several instances, including boarding actions where, despite
being attacked and wounded, Luong still refuses to use lethal
force on his assailants. At the end of his tour, he applies
for command school and is accepted. However, before he can
return to HQ:
64: The Olympic is ordered to Federation Research station Optima, a
semi-secret base dealing with the safe disposal of chemical
weapons taken from other powers. Ning is relieved of his duties
on board the Hades and ordered to take command of the facility
and is promoted to CAPT. Various directives from HQ severely
limit the time he spends at Optima, which, in his absence is run
by Cmdr Ethikas. Eventually, after nearly 6 months of
travelling round various toxicology labs throughout Federation
space he returns to Optima. He finds that equipment logs to not
tally with his personal recollections of when he found time to
tour the facility on his rare returns to his command. He
decides to commence an investigation into the disappearance of
some of the equipment, most notably some potentially dangerous
supplies. He finds that an "unknown power" is using the
facility for its own purposes, namely the creation of biological
weapons and reports it to Command. Commander Leo Ethikas, who
provided the information and evidence commits suicide before the
investigative team arrive. Commodore Jeremiah Waters heads up
the investigation team that finds Capt Luong guilty of
mismanagement and tries him (along with half a dozen
"accomplices") at a court martial hearing. Evidence appears
with Capt Luong's authorisation on various requisition forms
that he insists he did not sign. He is found guilty, is
sentenced to 3 months imprisonment. The only thing preventing
his discharge is his exemplary service to date. He is, however,
demoted to CMDR. Utterly desolate at the findings, CMDR Luong
musters out with an honourable discharge.
65-70: Operates as a freelance medical specialist, forming his own
company, Karma Inc. His fame within his own field swiftly
allows him to build up an enviable reputation, with his services
proving to be in high demand, making him extremely rich in the
process.
71-73: Becomes a primary sponsor for a peace movement known as Peace
Through Non Action. Is utilised by the Federation and his sent
to many medical emergencies to assist indigenous populations.
74: Discovers that at least some of the funding is being re routed
to a terrorist group dedicated to bringing about the fall of the
Federation Government to be replaced by a more "benign" form of
Government. In trying to expose them he is forced to go on the
run. Allegations are made regarding unethical practices within
Karma Inc. He goes on the run, hoping to get in contact with
the authorities. Trying to silence him the terrorist group
mount a botched kidnapping attempt of his family. It results in
the death of his sister. Eventually he manages to get a message
through to an old Navy buddy, Capt Jessop who is now working for
SECIS.
75: Following another attempt on his life, Ning petitions for the
creation of another identity for him and his family, this is
refused. However, interested parties within the Federation make
contact and, during clandestine meetings, the identity of the
"unknown power" is revealed to be an agency known as Section 31.
Ning is offered the opportunity to join SECIS in order to fight
against the influence of the shadowy Section 31 as well as other
enemies of the Federation. After much discussion it is agreed
that he will have the discharge removed from his record, until
evidence surfaces either way he will be marked as UNDER
INVESTIGATION - CURRENTLY SUSPENDED.
76-77: Undergoes extensive re-training in intelligence operations.
However, despite grave concerns he refuses to surrender his vow
never to kill. Other than his obvious medical skill he seems to
have a talent for surveillance and counter surveillance
operations.
78: Assigned to Task Force Sierra
IV. Background Information
Ning grew up an exceptionally happy child, although a little distant
from other children. His innate curiosity served to exercise his
burgeoning IQ. This development was encouraged by both his parents who
began to teach him from home, hoping to encourage him to specialise in
their disciplines. Eventually he chose his mothers discipline and
studied medicine. It wasn't until he was into his early 20's that he
discovered his unusual gifts. He was bitten by a funnel web spider, and
although suffered for 12 hours, he made an extremely rapid recovery. It
was following this event that his mother confirmed he had been
genetically modified.
He has always enjoyed his time with the Navy, enjoying particularly the
structure and the facilities provided to him. He has always been less
keen on the idea of killing a fellow being. However, his role has
always been such that his ability to fight has never been brought into
serious question. Recent events have forced him to acknowledge that
there are individuals within the armed forces who seek to protect the
federation by using methods that are distasteful to him. To use his own
words, "You don't stop an arm bleeding by cutting it off. You use
precision, causing as little damage to the surrounding area as possible."
Whilst most intelligence operatives would consider Ning to be little
more than a gifted amateur, his wide range of skills as well as his
acknowledged expertise in the medical field make him an ideal team
player for Task Force Sierra. However, given his slightly idealistic
view of the Federation he is probably not suited for command, or for
extended periods out in the field.
V. Skills Profile
Dr Luong is a fully qualified surgeon and is also rated as an exo-
biologist, macrobiologist and geneticist. He is a talented amateur
engineer, though he has no formal training. His engineering focus is
mainly in computers and communication systems, again mainly thanks to
his father.
During his time with the Navy he has undertaken many of their basic
training packages. He is rated with shortarms and longarms and has also
received extensive zero G and generic survival training.
Due to his fatigue threshold he is also an endurance swimmer of extreme
talent, and, when he does decide to exercise it is usually swimming.
Finally, he has studied a few defensive martial arts focused on using
the attacker's strength and power against them, though he is far from an
expert.
VI. Recent Fitness Report
The genetic modifications to Dr Luong reduce the amount of fatigue
toxins produced by his muscles during exercise. Whilst he remains
average in terms of speed, coordination and power, his endurance levels
are simply astounding. Even more so given that he indulges in the bare
minimum of exercise.
The genetic modifications have also provided him with an extremely
aggressive immune system that appears to be able to handle almost any
natural toxin known to Federation Scientists. However, his immune
system fares less well against man made toxins. This situation is
further complicated in that his aggressive immune system attacks ANY
foreign body, which includes antidotes and immunisations. He also has
an increased ability to heal. It is estimated that a broken arm would
heal completely within a week on the condition that Dr Luong intakes an
increased level of calcium.
Finally he appears to be ageing at a reduced rate. It is estimated that Dr
Luong ages at around 1/2 the rate of an unaltered human (and thus
appears to be younger than he actually is). This same modification has
resulted in an allergic reaction to any of the normal life extension
treatments. Something that his mother did not forsee. His estimated
lifespan is 180 years.
This is not without cost. Dr Luong must ingest a formula of his own
creation every morning to allow him to eat "normal food" due to the
content of bacteria in all things. From experience, if he does not
ingest this formula he will be unable to eat (or more accurately to
retain any solids, or even fluids other than water). For this reason
(and although it would barely affect him) Ning avoids alcohol and almost
any other fluid other than plain water. However, he does enjoy his
food and does not relish the thought of eating sterile vitamin pills,
therefore he eats well and as a normal human would. Furthermore, before
setting foot on a planet he has never been on before he has to inject
himself with a concoction to allow his immune system to accept the
hitherto unknown bacteria into his system. This usually results in cold
like symptoms for the first 24 hours. The alternative is that his
system continually battles the "infection", resulting in severe shakes
and nausea for a period ranging from 24 - 72 hours.
VII. Psychological Profile
Dr Luong places no stock in the effects that any genetic modification
may have had upon him. He has adjusted exceptionally well to this
revelation, mainly due to his attitude of what has happened is in the
past, move on. Ning is not given much to introspection, with the only
deviation being that he seeks to review his performance to maximise any
learning. Recent events have forced him to question the very nature of
the Federation. However he is totally committed to ensuring that the
Federation and its most lofty ideals remain untarnished. Though not
religious, he is a believer in the maxim, "Defeat your enemies with
kindness."
However, he is less well adjusted to the death of his sister believing
that he and the Federation could have done more. Allied to this is a
deep seated drive to see that the guilty parties are brought to justice.
He is fiercely passionate about improving the lives of others through
medical discoveries, though he does appreciate that it is sometimes
necessary to fight to survive. He finds the Borg both terrifying and
fascinating.
Despite his chosen career his main passion is the act of learning. Ning
is most happy when he has a new skill to master and obviously enjoys the
whole process of absorbing new information. This curiosity is one of
Ning's foremost talents and should prove of great benefit. However,
this must be tempered by a capable commander. To his cost, Ning has
discovered there are some things best left undiscovered - for the good
for the Federation. This trait should also be carefully noted as it has
the potential to cause difficulties during extended covert operations,
Dr Luong may lose sight of the main aims and objectives and immerse
himself in his new experiences. As he becomes more wordly, this should
become less and less of a problem.
VIII. Current Recreational Interests
Dr Luong enjoys playing computer games, and can often be found in his
quarters playing on a device of his fathers creation. This also extends
to playing on the holodeck, though as an amateur historian, he usually
sticks to factual events. He continues to practice playing his guitar,
though never seems happy with his ability even though listeners have
insisted that he is very good. Interestingly Dr Luong is a practising
pacifist and refuses to kill. Though far from defenceless, he has kept
his vow to never take a life.
IX. Miscellaneous Information
In his last IQ test Dr Luong scored well over the threshold for "genius
level". Ever since he was a child he has answered to the nickname
"Mouse". This is he insists due to his penchant as a child to wriggle
into the smallest places.

aunt is a well-known memeber of StarFleet, Commander Jade Phoenix,
XO on the USS DAEDALUS. Jenna joined SFA much to the dismay of her
parents and grandmother (Katherine Phoenix), following in her Aunt's
footsteps. Much like her aunt, Jenna has little patience for
familial concepts of what is acceptable, choosing to follow her own
path. This rebellion is reflected in every aspect of her life, from
her career to her beliefs. Jenna is torn between idolizing her aunt
and trying not to be a carbon copy of her aunt, to find her own
path.

II. Educational Background A. Starfleet Academy, Military Science Activities: Running, Violin (symphony caliber), classical music III. Biographical Notes A. Chronology (tabular form): 0-18: Lived with parents 18-22: Starfleet Academy 22-26: Served as Tactical Officer on destroyer USS Kirk, remaining on the ship she promoted through Full Lieutenant and the position of Executive Officer. 27-32: Along with other eight survivors of the Kirk, Grace was held captive by the Romulans 33-35: Returned to the Federation as part of a prisoner exchange, promotion from Lieutenant to Lieutenant Commander. She received the Medal of Honor for her actions on the Kirk 36-38: Served as tactics instructor at Starfleet academy. Regularly monitored by OSFI, and at the end of her 3-year instructor tour was cleared to return to space duty. 39: Promoted Commander, assigned OPS/2O of USS Daedalus Present: Re-assigned to TF Sierra B. Background Summary: At the rank of Lieutenant, Kirk, equipped with an experimental cloaking device, was sent deep into Romulan space to gather information on the Dhael-class heavy cruiser, then in the initial construction phase. Kirk's cloaking was not up to the standards of Romulan sensor technology, and the ship was quickly located and engaged by no fewer than five Senai-class light cruisers, the newest and best in the Romulan navy, each of which was vastly superior in both speed and power to the Kirk. As Executive Officer, Grace took command on the death of the captain and fought her ship to the point of crippling one of the Romulan cruisers while managing to destroy the prototype cloaking device before the Kirk was boarded by the Romulans. She was held captive by the Romulans for nearly six years, though the details were entirely classified as neither the Federation nor the Romulans admit to holding any prisoners. During the three years following her return (the other seven all took their lives within a year of repatriation), Grace was thoroughly debriefed, interrogated by OSFI, and eventually cleared to return to service, though she remained at Starfleet academy as an instructor for three years while OSFI closely monitored her behavior. Finally she was cleared to return to space duty and promoted to full Commander. Grace has no recollection of what occurred at the Romulan prison except that she was permitted to keep her violin and had access to a gymnasium. IV. Skills Profile Grace is a concert violinist who has lost none of her talent despite six years of captivity. She is also a brilliant tactician and has a very quick mind. VI. Recent Fitness Report Commander Kim is in outstanding physical condition, which is surprising considering her long incarceration. Kim states that she was treated well by her captors, who provided ample food and allowed her access to the facility's gymnasium, and even provided her with a violin. I cannot find any signs of physical torture, malnutrition or any other physical abuse of any kind. In fact, Commander Kim is at a level of physical condition that would suggest a professional gymnast, rather than a serving military officer. Dr. Rachel Kraus, Starfleet Academy, Duty Physician VII. Psychological Profile Commander Kim is a very difficult nut to crack. We have employed nine telepaths of four different species to try and get an inside look at her thoughts, but her thoughts remain a mystery to us. Commander Kim claims that she is Esper Blind, as are all members of her family, a claim verified by both of her parents, and thus completely immune to psionic treatments. Despite our inability to get inside Commander Kim's mind, she is very well-adjusted and does not appear to have been mistreated during her Romulan incarceration. I have no reason to doubt her when she says that she and her shipmates were treated well and not abused in any way. Dr. Kevin Hart, Starfleet Academy, Duty Counselor VIII. Current Recreational Interests Classical music, violin IX. Classified Information " NOT CHARACTER KNOWLEDGE -not even to Grace herself" The public file and Starfleet's knowledge of what happened on Romulus is very different than what actually happened. The fact is, Grace Kim's Esper Blindness was overcome, and she was programmed by her Romulan captors. When she describes being treated well she is not lying, as her memories of the period were fabricated by a Romulan psionicist and emplanted in her mind. She has no recollection of the grueling physical training program that the Romulans subjected her to, creating in effect the perfect assassin. Grace Kim has no idea that she is able to shoot a flying sparrow at 1,000 meters with a hand phaser, nor has she any clue that she was trained to kill even a martial arts master with her bare hands in mere seconds. Until her programming is triggered by the correct stimulus, she is a mild-mannered though competent and confident woman who takes her duties as a Starfleet officer very seriously. Once activated, however, best stay out of the way, she has a level of physical ability and mental resistance that make her formidable indeed. More recently, she has become aware that something was done on account of her being activated by a Romulan plan on board the Daedalus. While activated, she killed a Federation senator, a retired intelligence operative and almost killed Commodore Madison Fitzgerald. She was tried and found innocent of those crimes, though now the difficulty is finding a way to deprogram her or at least make sure that the Romulans cannot access her. One consequence of her recent activation was an awareness by OSFI of the extraordinary level of training that the Romulans provided. While the Federation does not engage in so-called Black Ops, having an operative with such training could be very useful in counter operations.
