B. Background Summary
---------------------

Serah Riley is a charming, driven, and extremely kind young woman.  
Vulnerable and sweet, she has an uncanny ability to disarm those around 
her.  Her outward grace and staunch determination, however, hide the pain 
of a haunting loss.  

Since childhood, Serah has felt the night sky stir a wanderlust within 
her.  Wishing to turn that yearning into a productive channel, she applied 
to Starfleet Academy.  Her first attempt was turned down.  But before the 
next round of applications she met a gentleman named Michael Taylor. 
Falling hard in love she put aside her plans in order to attended the 
local university with him.  In her sophomore year, just weeks after 
Michael had proposed marriage, he died tragically in a land car accident. 

Serah mourned deeply.  But with her love gone, she turned back to her 
dream of becoming a Starfleet officer.  This time she was accepted into 
the Academy where she pursued the Communications track.  

Serah has been gifted with an uncanny aptitude for linguistics.  She 
commands a passion to master as many as she can.  Knowing that she will be 
most useful studying the linguistics of the UFP's adversaries, she has 
immersed herself in the both the language and history of the Klingons, 
Romulans, Orions, Gorn, and Nausicaans.  

Although Serah is an attractive young lady, she is currently too focused 
on her career and duties to consider the regular advances.  Deep down, she
feels she is not quite over the loss of Michael.  But she always takes 
time to be with friends.  In her spare time, she practices her singing and 
tennis.  As a devout Christian, she attends worship services weekly 
whenever she is in port and studies privately when she is not.  

1st Mission
-----------
Serah Riley's first away mission proved horrifyingly traumatic.  Agents 
of the Orion Syndicate abducted her at a backroom conference on 
Telani VII.  While confined on a smuggling ship, she saw a fellow captive 
about to be raped by a over a dozen Orion crewmen.  At great risk to 
herself, she lured in and incapacitated two of them with a pair of 
poisoned hairpins.  She then used the guards' weapons to stun the other 
attackers.  

Shortly after delivering her charge to safety, Serah was kidnapped again by a 
rogue Section 31 agent named Captain Blake.  The agent first stabbed and then 
shot her with a modified phaser that concealed a transporter beam that
relocated her to a hidden shuttle.  Five days later Serah was mysteriously 
beamed back aboard the LEXINGTON, her wounds almost healed and her memory of the 
stabbing erased.  Serah was awarded the Silver Star for her actions on the away 
mission.  

2nd Mission
-----------
Serah's second mission proved no less harrowing than her first.  While the
LEXINGTON ferried Romulan Ambassador Nanclus back to his homeworld, Serah 
found herself the primary suspect in his apparant assassination.  
Bizzarely, during a break in her interrogation, she was confronted by a 
future version of herself and teleported to a group of time traveling 
Vulcans.  

The Vulcans told Serah that they could only send her back to just before 
the assassination.  They warned her that members of the senior staff may 
have been possessed by an alien entity, so she could not trust anyone.  On 
her return, Serah hid the ambassador mere minutes before the attack while 
making it look like he had been killed.  She also set sabotage devices so 
that when a cloaked Romulan warbird intercepted them, it would be able to 
send a signal to disrupt the LEX's shields and beam the ambassador to 
safety.  

Unfortunately, the LEX's Vulcan chief engineer, LT Shaav, found Serah, 
stalked her through the Jeffries Tubes, and eventually captured the 
terrified ensign.  As of this update (SD 2261.355), he is subjecting her 
to a forced mind-meld.

IX. NRPG Notes
====================================

Serah Riley is named for the Final Fantasy XIII character Serah Farron 
and naturally bears a striking resemblance to that character.  Serah's
surname was changed to "Riley" in honor of the United States Army 
post that the author Brian Mansur was once stationed at and where his son 
was born.
