Misc. Information: |
From the time she was young enough to understand, Lara Beth Braynick was told she was abandoned by her parents and given up for adoption to Doctors Rachel Nick and Raymond Bray, two genetic research scientists working and living in London. When Lara Beth was five, the doctors genetically enhanced her immune system, agility, physical strength, cognitive abilities, and senses.
Lara Beth exhibited a love for adventure when she was in her pre-teens, and could always be found investigating ruins and exploring. By the time she was sixteen, she had travelled to many worlds as part of a archeology team from the Daystome Institute. When she was seventeen, she decided to join Starfleet. She studied Security and Tactics and discovered she enjoyed the studies of Martial Arts. On her own time, she mastered Kung-Fu and Karate, not only to keep fit, but to use those techniques to discipline both her mind and spirit. After graduating the Academy age age 22, she was assigned to the USS Plimptick as tactical officer for three years. She then took a transfer to the USS Psyche as Assistant Security Chief. When she was promoted to full Lieutenant, she was also named Chief of Security. During an engagement with a Borg Cube, the USS Psyche was badly damaged and had to be refitted. While waiting for reassignment, Lara Beth took a temporary position at the United Federation of Planets headquarters in Paris, France as a Federation Council liaison. She had a natural talent for diplomacy, so much in fact, several Ambassadors gave her commendations for her skills as a negotiator. She was transfered to the USS Titan with the rank of Commander and given the XO position. After the Partonis Incident and another confrontation with the Borg, she was promoted to Captain and took command of the USS Cascade. She was then promoted to Rear Admiral and given command of the 8th Squadron of the FDTF. After a restructuring of the FDTF, she was named as CO of the Diplomatic Corps. Curious about her past, she decided to research who and where her real parents were. She went to Vulcan to speak with Doctor Nick, who was on her death bed. Nick confessed that infact, Lara Beth was given to them by her mother Angela and that her birth father was told she had died. She was also informed that her birth father was devestated to hear that news. Doctor Nick, her mind no longer what it once was, was unable to remember who her father was, so after reading Doctor Nick's notes from the past, Lara Beth discovered that her father was Ambassador Christopher Jericho. She also discovered that her friend Kelly Jericho was also her sister. The family was reunited and the truth was finally known. She is 5'8" tall and weighs 120 lbs. She follows a strict work-out program to keep herself in tip-top shape. She has brown hair and blue eyes. She is an excellent diplomat and negotiator. |
