Very determined and can become frustrated easily. A being of action not patience. Hobbies/Interests: Reading-political journals, the study of Earth's International Relations--19th and 20th Centuries., Music Favourite Drink: Coffee, Black Favourite Food: None...good appetite for most...See Medical File MEDICAL NOTES: As the only being of his kind little is known of his biology in terms of life expectancy, physical norms, life phases etc. However after study of the subject several areas have come to light. Internally, Zane most resembles a Klingon in terms of having biological backups of all major systems. For example all major organs have duplicates that appear to have little function unless the primary organ is damaged or incapacitated in some manner. Of most interest is a small organ attached to the stomach which processes protein in a highly accelerated manner. The result is that Zane does not need and, in fact, seems incapable of sleeping. It appears this organ acts as some sort of internal 'battery' or power system. To remain charged the subject must consume a substantial amount of food at frequent intervals. On an average day 8 meals are generally consumed. When unable to follow this the subject appears sluggish and begins to lose mental functions. While dietary supplements and vitamins can be used a steady menu of solid food is recommended. BACKGROUND/HISTORY: In 2356 the USS REPULSE discovered a derelict ship in sector HX-8946. The ship was determined to be at least 8000 years old. Upon searching the vessel a small compartment was discovered that still maintained partial power due to a small nuclear power plant. The equipment being powered was retrieved and studied by the REPULSE. It was determined that the equipment was designed to keep a fertilized embryo viable. After much debate the ship's CMO, in a direct violation of orders, revived the embryo from its stasis. After a six-month gestation the being later named Zane was born. As the REPULSE was on a deepspace-exploration mission the infant was cared for and raised by the officers and crew of the REPULSE. Primary care and guidance was undertaken jointly by Captain John Clark and the CEO, Lt. Cmdr Cathy Ryan. Schooling was performed by the various department heads but it was found at an early age that Zane had little aptitude for the sciences. It is unknown if this is an individual trait or one of his races. By age sixteen it was unmistakable, the urge to leave and begin a life of his own. It was decided that Zane would be best suited in Starfleet and thus entered the Academy in 2372. NOTE: In 2376 (SD:70823) USS REPULSE was listed as missing and presumed destroyed. Letters of Recommendation. It is hard to believe that we found Zane 16 years ago adrift in space. Since that time we have raised him 'as our own'. I suppose it is inevitable that he would wish to join starfleet and it is a measure, not only of or affection but our respect for his abilities that we forgo the tradition of having an officer recommend him. Instead, on behalf of the entire crew of the USS REPULSE, WE recommend him. Captain John Clark USS REPULSE. -commanding. It is with mixed emotions I approve Ensign Zane's posting to ALB as part of his transition to the fleet. The destruction of the REPULSE has hit him hard. Not only has he lost his family and his home. He must deal with the fact that he must truly be alone. He does not know where he is from or where he belongs. However, I feel that a starship posting is the best way for him to overcome his sorrow.

Background Summary: ----------------------- Catherine (or "Kit") was raised on Camilo V, a small human colony near the Orion border. The colony was raided in 2399 by Orion slave traders, who captured all young children between nine and twelve to sell on the slave market after they had matured, while destroying all records. After two years of living in the hold of an Orion ship with other to-be slaves, Kit was liberated by a Starfleet crew and sent to a nearby Starbase to undergo a stringent set of psychiatric evaluations and therapies. After being released from medical care, she was sent to foster parents at Starbase 20. The foster parents decided after a year that they were unable to foster a child, so Kit was transferred to another set of foster parents at Starbase 34. The second set of foster parents decided, after having their first child and moving to Starbase 25, that fostering would put them at a disadvantage, and Kit was passed to another set of foster parents. Foster parents number 3, Rick and Joanne Chang, were staff hydroponics experts on the J'harra Trading post, and accepted 15-year-old Kit. During her stay with the Changs, she adopted their last name. The Changs decided to move to the cruiser YANDA to function as hydroponics experts there. Catherine left of her own volition at 17 when they docked at Trading Post 52FJD8, one of the outposts used for trade between the cargo ships that putted throughout the various sectors. A few days after leaving the YANDA, she found a post as an assistant to the staff mechanic. She left after two years when her mentor left the base and applied to Starfleet Academy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IV.

C. Medals and Commendations: ----------------------------- 121207 Starfleet Commendation Medal, USS KIROV 131111 [Outstanding Player, October 2001 RT] 151111 [Outstanding Player, October 2004 RT] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ V. Skills Profile ------------------ Professor Althea Jamison, Basic Structural Theory, Starfleet Academy "Catherine is a very quiet young woman who shows incredible promise in the field of structural field theory and application. She performs well on real-life problems and has surprising creativity when challenged with problems outside the scope of the course." 110523 Professor T'Farr, Hydroponics, Starfleet Academy "Catherine achieved far above expectations in the advanced elective hydroponics course offered through the Academy. Given her background in the field in real-life situations, I would expect her to be a leading expert in the field after more years of study." 111215 Professor Indira Hjart-la-sa, Electronics, Starfleet Academy "Catherine has a rich history of tinkering in her background and brings her experience into the classroom with a creativity that I have only seen in poor trading stations and colonies. Her mastery of electronics and electrical systems is only a few years away." 101215 Professor Joos T'hins-lighter, Artifical Intelligence, Starfleet Academy "Catherine is certainly competent in the field of computer science and artificial intelligence, but she shows her true mastery of the engineering field primarily in hardware and design. She struggles more with software-related problems than if presented with a problem that lies in hardware." 110515 Commander Jerran Terl, First Officer, USS KIROV "LTjg Chang has proven herself to be a critical member of the KIROV's bridge crew, often burning the midnight oil in order to achieve the results we need in times of need. Although she is still growing in her management skills, she has made large improvements over the past few months and is very promising indeed. I recommend grooming her for additional responsibilities in command as soon as possible." 130212 Commander Jerran Terel, First Officer, USS KIROV "Catherine Chang has proven to be a most valuable member of this crew, and it was with no hesitation that she was my first recommendation to Captain Zane for the position of OPS/2O as soon as I found out that Commander Landers would be leaving to command the new USS FEYNMAN. She'll have a lot to learn with the change from SCI to OPS, but she's shown in the past that she has a very adaptable intellect and personality, and should work out fine." 131205 Captain Zane, Captain, USS KIROV "I can think of no better individual to assume the post of first officer of the USS KIROV. Although Chang has recently been promoted to Second Officer, I believe that her time in duty and her assiduous attention to detail are both signs of command material. In addition, her promotion will ensure continuity in the command staff and traditions of the KIROV. High marks all around to LTCDR Chang." 160112 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VI.

(LT Marcus Hastings, CMO, USS KIROV) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VII. Psychological Profile --------------------------- Counselor Ranita H'tra, Staff Counselor, Starfleet Academy "Catherine is a highly intelligent individual with a history of abandonment. She struggles with feelings of inadequacy and personal trust issues, but has learned to control those feelings so as to effectively work in groups. She tends to be an individual and to be sought out instead of seeking others. "Catherine also shows difficulty in relating to parent-child relationships, since she has had so few true relationships of that kind. She also clings to her identity as a Starfleet member, as it offers her some form of identity that she can be proud of. "Exposed to Orion female sensuality at a young age, Catherine is still struggling with a healthy human sexuality, but will get there with more time. "Overall, Catherine is an extremely serious individual but gets along well on a surface level with her classmates. I do not see any difficulty in her living in confined spaces and would recommend that she be considered for a ship position in a challenging environment." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VIII. Current Recreational Interests ------------------------------------- Kit prefers to find solace in gardening and working with mechanical toys. She can also be found in various solo artistic pursuits, but rarely shows her artwork to anyone. She has few correspondents but writes to them faithfully. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IX. Miscellaneous Information ------------------------------ Physical description: Kit is relatively standard for a human female, of average height and above- average weight, though she hides most of it in muscle. She looks generally of the right form of an mostly athletic/active female, slightly thicker around the waist. Her hair is naturally black and straight, her eyes extremely dark brown. Kit's face is slim, but lights up in the times that she smiles or grins. Her eyes are very expressive and she tends to interpret others' facial expressions as an indication of how they will react to certain news. She has small, dextrous hands, and favors her right hand to her left. She has longer legs than torso. Her ears were pierced at 17. Personality description: Kit is a person whom most like to work with but that few really get to know. She has a hard outer shell - personable, likeable, well-adjusted, and tends towards shifting between a thoughtful silence and wry grins. She rarely laughs, but when she does, it's infectious. She has a tendency to be slightly self-deprecating. The inside... well, that's where character development comes in. She can be very scared inside, though she quells those feelings as much as she can. More on her inside. Lots of confusion that she hides rather well. Under high pressure situations, Kit has a focus that is so narrow that it drowns out most other things in the room. On a long shore leave, she'll visit one or two people from her past - sometimes she'll visit her last foster parents, the Changs, who are posted on a ship, or her Academy friend Geri Stavrinski, who is posted as a lowly security officer on a starbase. On short ones, she's often at a loss as to what to do, shying away from large social scenes. [Updated 050118] Sometime in the future, she's also known as "Red Fox." Separate story involving a -very- small crew and Chang as a burnt-out captain, going underground in a spy- like setting. There are a number of NPCs that are important in Chang's life. A brief description: + Captain Geri Stavrinski - Mentor from the Academy. Currently + assigned to EPSILON, formerly of the NEBULA. + Sparky Hodges - Life mentor and guardian. Space mechanic. Space Gypsy. All around decent guy. + Ty Ripley - Space Gypsy. One of four sexy, telepathically-linked quadruplets. Likes to use her sex appeal to get exactly what she wants. + Jonathan Sesro - Known as "Screaming Eagle" - Kit's former love interest, currently searching her out after a number of years in the Q-Continuum (really has no memory, no power, and is currently hitchhiking across the sector, trying to find Kit and avoid Ty) [STRANGE HISTORY NOTE: Screaming Eagle, Sparky, and Ty were -all- player characters from Prodigy's Star Trek RPG called "The Space Gypsies" that I played in as Kit Saunders. All of these characters are circa 1993-94. If any of the original owners of these characters would like to contact me, PLEASE DO. When I began playing in ASR, I melded a lot of the alternate versions of Kit into one new character.] + Michael Lopez - 2nd in Command in the KIROV's Marine division. Also known sometimes as "Raven." Kit's secret boyfriend. (Only person who really knows is Nik DeLaney.) + Jibi - Weird, annoying space creature that looks like Tinkerbell and has the IQ and attention span of a child on lots of sugar. Picked up in the Dyson's Sphere incident (cf. 2001 archive). Lives in the Science Labs. + USS VERSIFEX - Ship wandering around with a bunch of people Kit will need to know in the future. [ANOTHER STRANGE HISTORY NOTE: Some of these characters I made up, and some of them were real PCs from Prodigy's USS HOOD, which I believe I played on briefly. I changed the name in a post-RPG story I wrote back in 1994 or 1995. Ironically enough, my other PC, Maia Biaje, is currently posted on the USS HOOD.] ------------End bio chip------------------------------------------------------

Aviation has been a family business for almost half a millennium as he is descended from the infamous Greg "Pappy" Boyington of VMF 214, the Black Sheep Squadron. A ragtag collection of replacement pilots that succeeded in downing 94 enemy planes during its first 12 weeks of combat. Greg Jr. comes from an enormous line of pilots and is fiercely proud of his family history. Also an accomplished holo-programmer, he has written several simulations depicting ancient military flight with his most prized simulator being the F4U Corsair and the P51 Mustang. Having just about every air and spacecraft from past to present, he is always willing to take somebody on `head-to-head' in their craft of choice.

Educational Background --------------------------- A. Academic Institutional Background: -- Seoul International School -- Ehwa Women's University, Seoul, Korea -- Tokyo University, Tokyo, Japan (MA), California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA (Ph.D), Oxford University, Oxford, England (Ph.D) B. Service Schools Attended: -- None, Commissioned through AOT, tested out of Science Branch School C. Qualifications (MOC's) -- Science Officer D.

Reprimands: Activities: Minna is something of a bookworm, and doesn't get out much. While she may border on being socially inept (never even dated at age 32), she has lived many lives vicariously through books, which are her passion. In addition, she is an accomplished floutist, having played with the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra, and for the two years she spent at Cal Tech, she performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra as guest soloist on five occasions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- III. Biographical Notes ------------------------ A. Chronology (tabular form): ------------------------------ EXAMPLE 0-13: Lived with parents. 13-18: Attended High School 17-20: Attended Ehwa Women's University in Seoul, Korea, where she received her BS degree in Physics, with a minor in music. 20-22: Worked as a research physicist for Samsung electronics part-time and played in the Seoul Symphony, but she stayed in Korea out of loyalty to her parents. Finally her father practically ordered her to get on with HER life, and so she decided to go back to school. 23-24: Attended Tokyo University where she earned her Dual MS in Appied Mathematics and Physics. 25-26: Attended California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA, where she earned her doctorate in Physics. 27-28: Attended Oxford University in Oxford, United Kingdom, where she earend her doctorate in Applied Mathematics. 29-36: Worked for Starfleet as a civilian research scientist at Utopia Planetia shipyard R&D in Communicaitons. Finally, feeling a certain stagnation in her life, she put in for the AOT (Advanced Officer Training) program and received her commission as an ensign in the Science Branch. 37: Completed AOT and ALB Training, awaiting assignment. B. Background Summary: ----------------------- Minna Chang was something of a prodigy, though by the choice of her parents she was only advanced in academic grade once, more than that, in her mother's opinion, would cause too many developmental problems. Still, as early as Junior High School Minna was submitting entries to Federation Math contests, and winning. By her first year of High School she had published papers in both math and physics. After a BS, a dual MS and two doctorates, all while playing flute semi-professionally, Minna felt a strong need to leave the confines of the solar system, and took a job with Starfleet, which eventually led to her commissioning through the AOT program. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- IV. Official Star Fleet Record ------------------------------- A. Promotion History: ---------------------- 40601 Commissioned as Ensign (O-1). B. Service History: -------------------- 40601 Commissioned as Ensign (O-1). C. Medals and Commendations: ----------------------------- Hawking Award (Civilian) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- V. Skills Profile ------------------ Minna Chang is simply brilliant. She was admitted to MENSA at the age of 6, has an IQ of roughly 230. Her talents are primarily mathematical, however she has also excelled in music, which in her opinion, is perhaps the ultimate expression of mathematics. Despite her intelligence, she is a poor strategist, and is easily defeated in Western Chess, Paduk (Japanese Go) or even simpler games such as checkers. She also suffers, or benefits, from a rare condition called Esper-Blindness, which means that she is completely inaccessible to telepathic and empathic penetration. Telepaths simply are not even aware of her presence, and cannot project or read thoughts or emotions. This is naturally occurring, though exceedingly rare, affecting perhaps one in every billion humans. She has absolutely no psionic ability herself, and with this condition, absolutely never will. She is also extremely well-read, prefering the safety of adventuring in books to real life. It was two-years-ago, when her older brother was reported MIA, that Minna realized that she hadn't even begun to live. That even sparked her desire to see the universe, and while still very timid, she has done her best to step out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- VI. Recent Fitness Report -------------------------- I don't know why Cadet Chang is here, as a science post aboard a starship is not what her education was aimed at. Still, she is eager and while timid, tries her best. Physically, military life is difficult for Cadet Chang as she is not strong or athletic, and borders on anorexic. Still, she is healthy and has no apparant defects. Doctor Martin Jarvis Staff Physician, Starfleet Academy Monitoring Physician for AOT class 412 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- VII. Psychological Profile --------------------------- Cadet Chang is very timid and shy, but strangely, my telepathic abilities are not capable of penetrating her thoughts. She did not test as telepathic, but it is as though she is simply not there. Using more conventional analysis, I believe that Cadet Chang is capable of serving as a Science Officer on a Starfleet ship, I'm just not sure why she wants to. Counselor Yolanda Black Starfleet Academy Staff Psychologist Monitoring Psychologist for AOT class 412 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- VIII. Current Recreational Interests ------------------------------------- Minna still plays her flute semi-professionally, and actually gave a recital the week before her AOT class in San Francisco, which was attended by many of the highest ranking starfleet officers and politicians in that city. When not practicing, or reading, she is usually researching whatever burning mathematical or physics question has aroused her curiosity. ----------- END BIOFILE ------------------------------------------------------
LCDR Loren Landers, Counselor
- played by Kevin Thigpen
- Updated SD 180531
Name: Loren Landers Current Rank: Lieutenant Commander Position: COU Physical Desription: Height: 6'1' Weight: 175 lbs Race: Betazoid (full) Skin Color: caucasian Hair Color: Blond, unruly and longish in front Eye Color: Dark Black (Betazoid) Distinguishing Marks: None Additional Remarks: Loren is not a well-muscled man, although he is quite fit for your typical negotiator (see history). Definitely not wiry, but also not overweight or out of shape by any means. Interests: 20th century rollerblading kickboxing (21st century styles) writing short stories Mental Abilities Brief Description: Loren has full Betazoid telepathic abilities, rating more or a less an average score among Betazoids in the implementation and use of his abilities. This average rating is remarkable considering his background and upbringing in the Klingon Empire. History Brief Description: Loren Landers was found on the SS PURUL, a derelict trading ship within the boundaries of the Klingon empire at the tender age of 3 years. The commander of the klingon bird of prey that found the vessel claimed Loren as 'salvage' the rest of the ship being too damaged by unknown forces for any kind of salvage. The klingon commander, Moff, named the pale, injured child Loren Landers after one of the names on the crew manifest for the ship. For Loren this left him to be raised on the klingon homeworld, Q'on'os, among his two brothers and one sister. The years that followed were naturally tough for the young, maturing man. Learningto fight was paramount for Loren, in order for him to just survive. His skin color and physical appearance made him a natural target, thus to just make it through a day without major injuries, Loren learned to defend himself. Upon reaching puberty, he slowly learned more about his Betazoid talents and developed these abilities to aid in his own defense. He learned to not only read his opponents physical movements in a fight, but also learned to gather 'impressions' from his opponents thoughts, thus allowing him to anticipate his opponents moves well ahead of the coming attack. In short, Loren learned how to fight, and fight well. Very few Klingons would dare call him out for a fair fight, as his reputation grew in the social circles surrounding him. Nevertheless, the feelings of isolation grew for Loren, and upon reaching 15, he realized just how different he really was. Leaving Q'on'os wasn't difficult for the child man. All he had seen there was fighting and hatred against him. Deep down there was a need to actually feel wanted and loved. Abandoning his 'family' on the Klingon homeworld, the youth managed to secure passage to the notorious Sirius IV colony, where after arriving nearly penniless, he managed to get hired as a dispute mediator for a major shipping exporter planetside. Staying nearly two years at this job, from ages 15 to 17, Loren then left, tendering an application to Starfleet Academy with the recommendation of Cmdr. Loroque, CO of the SAMURAI vessel assigned to protect the colony on Sirius IV. Excerpt from Loroque Recommendation "...his talent truly lies in his ability to determine the directions negotiations should go. Involving a particular dispute between two shipping parties ready to begin firing upon each other's vessel while in orbit, the young Mr. Landers not only assisted us in settling the dispute but convinced both parties involved how working with each other would not only increase their profits but allow them to nearly corner the market on a particular item. Needless to say, I was impressed by the wisdom exhibited by Mr. Landers at such an early age. I do recommend that his entrance into the academy be welcomed." Cmdr. Loroque, CO USS VIXEN Academy and Post-Academy years Starfleet Academy proved uneventful for the young Landers, passing his classes with average scores, excelling in Federation history and scoring high on the auxiliary services exams. Like all telepahths in Starfleet, Loren took the Telepath's oath vowing never to forcefully read another sentient being’s mind. Following his graduation, Landers was given the rank Ensign and assigned to the USS FEYNMAN as CNS. Serving for nearly three years aboard the FEYNMAN he rose rapidly in rank from ensign to full lieutenant, not to mention the growth of a deep relationship with the ship's crew particularly the ship's CMO, Dr. Mary Mackrensacklar (Mac for short). The relationship between the two flourished into a romantic relationship, which grew even more intimate upon the discovery of Dr. Mac's latent telepathic abilities. Assisting her in controlling her newfound talent was Loren, which even deepened their relationship. Feeling he had finally found that which was lacking in his life, namely love, Loren began to feel at peace surrounded by his friends on the FEYNMAN as well as Mary. During this time, the FEYNMAN on a mission in the Coalsack Nebula encountered a superior Xanthandi strike force and was subsequently destroyed. Fortunately less than 3% of the crew was lost in the attack and escape. As the crew awaited reassignment, fully expecting to be broken up and shipped to different vessels in the fleet, Dr. Mac was given an important assignment in a remote sector dealing with a sudden virial outbreak. Feeling it her duty to help others she accepted the assignment, effectively ending her relationship with Loren. Heartbroken, Loren himself decided to leave anything and everything that reminded him of her, requesting reassignment from the FEYNMAN crew which now had been placed on a new SOVERIEGN class vessel, the KIROV. Loren was reassigned as diplomatic liason to the Isaahi, and subsequently was involved in ensuring a stalemate and brief negotiations between the warlike Reavers, Isaahi, and Federation. After the negotiations had broken down, Loren was left without an assignment, until the opening of the Gibraltar II wormhole. Now that a new passageway has opened to the BETA quadrant, Starfleet saw a need for someone on the frontlines to represent the interests of the Federation in a diplomatic fashion. Enter Loren Landers, first contact specialist. Suddenly, Loren found himself back onboard the KIROV, alongside the crew he had hoped to forget, among those who were the only ones to truly care for him. Unfortunately, this stint back with the crew Landers grew to see as family was very short-lived. Starfleet, within a month of approving Loren’s billet as a specialist onboard the KIROV, recalled him to assign him to a special ancillary group within Starfleet Engineering, the Prototype Spacecraft Test Group. Recently discovered technology, brought by the arrival of a ship once lost in the Delta quadrant for some years spurred several advances in light spacecraft that Starfleet saw fit to further investigate. This group, PSTG, was tasked with the mission of design and testing of new craft. It was still unknown at this time why Loren Landers was tapped for being part of this group as his flight skills prior to entering into service with this group was highly circumspect. Nonetheless, after serving in this group for over 2 years, he sought and obtained a billet on the ship that was once his home, the USS KIROV, with flight skills far above what they had been previously. See Appendix: PSTG, for non-classified information regarding the PSTG.

The mission statement of this small agency is to design and test light spacecraft prior to rolling it out fleetwide. In order to accomplish this goal, the agency is given the power to recruit officers of the fleet as needed. MEMO: Cmdr. Dr. Owen Larson, Commanding Officer PSTG RE: Recruitment of Lt.Cmdr. Loren Landers I agree with Dr. Zaras’s comments regarding Lt.Cmdr. Landers. His telepathic abilities would aid us tremendously in gaining more ground in understanding the findings brought to us from that ship just recently returned from the Delta quadrant. I believe that his lack of ability in navigation and piloting can be remedied quickly enough. In addition, from what I’ve heard regarding his recent posting as a negotiator near that new wormhole, he should be more than amenable to our offer. Please proceed with contacting the commander. Inform him of none of our plans for him though. I want him in the dark as much as possible. Provide him with only the information he needs to know. -------------- End Bio chip --------------------------------------------------

Background Summary: ====================== Nik grew up in a relatively isolated region of Alaska, just north of the Arctic circle. His parents, both writers, had moved to the area to get back to a simpler way of life where they could raise a family. Shortly after his 1st birthday, Nik's mother died when she accidentally fell into a fissure in the ice of a nearby glacier. The death had a chilling effect on his father, who was emotionally distant for the rest of his life. Growing up, Nicholas was forced to rely solely on himself for company. This fostered a drive to make himself the best he could be, both physically and mentally. To this day, he is a voracious reader of anything he can get his hands on, as well as an accomplished athlete. Upon the death of his father a month before his 18th birthday, Nik found himself with no ties to his home and no reason to stay. Searching for his purpose in life, he decided to join the Marines, whose recruitment slogans promised that sense of purpose he lacked. ================================================================== IV.

Skills Profile ================== Adept student at classic military stratagems; while not excelling at novel strategies, he is able to analyze situations and apply successful precedents to current conditions. ================================================================== VI. Recent Fitness Reports ========================== "Cadet DeLaney show great skill and dedication to his academic pursuits. He will certainly do well within the corps. However, his solitary pursuits and lack of interaction with his fellow students leads me to believe that this could cause problems later on in his career. Perhaps the most worrisome indicator of this is the record time he holds in the Kobayashi Maru test. During this can't- win test, most students struggle to determine the course of action that will kill the least crew and civilians. Cadet DeLaney actually bombed a civilian city, destroying countless civilians along with half of his crew. While it was a justifiable course of action in the situation, the speed at which he arrived at the decision bothers me a bit." Major Franz Hemmitz Instructor, Star Fleet Academy ================================================================== VII. Psychological Profile ========================== PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE: Star Date 81215 PATIENT: Cadet Commander Nicholas DeLaney FINDINGS: Cadet DeLaney appears to be a dedicated student with excellent career prospects ahead of him. While not the brightest or most intuitive of the students I've seen, Nicholas has an ability to apply what has been successful for others in similar situations to his own current circumstances. Good qualities aside, however, Cadet DeLaney's mental state warrants close observation. His early loss of his mother, isolation from others and subsequent loss of his father seem to have combined to turn most of his energies inward. While having no ill will towards others, Nicholas seems to have no desire to connect either. His leisure activities are almost exclusively solitary, and his Kobayashi Maru results indicate little problem with sending others off to die when needed. I would expect Nicholas to follow the rules and regulations expected of him, but I would be wary of placing him in situations without precedent or clear cut rules. (Signed)-Captain Wilmington Harris CMO, Star Fleet Academy (Signed)-Commander Dana Relimar Chief Psychologist, Star Fleet Academy ================================================================== VIII. Current Recreational Interests ================================== Weight lifting, Reading, Boxing, Rock Climbing ================================================================== IX. Miscellaneous Classified Information ================================== Nicholas believes there to be the potential for good and evil in all creatures. Unfortunately, he has become fixated on the flaws in his own character. He has come to realize that he has metaphorically bottled up all his evil qualities into a small part of his own mind that he keeps hidden. Having analyzed his own personality problems, Nicholas has become genuinely afraid to release the darkness near people and has generally attempted to distance himself from others. Having gotten a taste of the depth of the darkness he was capable of during his time in the combat zone, Nik has spent a significant amount of time learning vulcan control techniques. His biggest fear, however, remains that he will be overcome by his own evil nature, and destroy everything around him. He will follow orders and do what's best for his unit, but he tends to view his crewmates like chess pieces: Ideally he'd like to keep all of them in the game, but when you have to sacrifice a piece to win, you do. -----------------------End Bio chip-------------------------------
