Short Bios
Commanding Officer, USS Oberon,
NCC-69747: Captain Jerran Terel
Captain Jerran came to terms a long time ago with
his dual Vulcan/Bajoran heritage. He was raised on Vulcan by his diplomat
mother after his father left to fight the Cardassians in the Bajoran resistance,
but he still decided to learn of the religion and teaching of the
Prophets. A veteran of the Dominion war, Jerran is still somewhat haunted
by the destruction of two ships he served on, the Feynman and the Kirov.
The Kirov was lost when the Breen attacked San Francisco, and Jerran also
had the misfortune of loosing his beloved partner, LT St John Briggs. He
has been in command of the Oberon for four years now.
First Officer, USS Oberon: Commander t'Jon
t'Jon joined the crew of the Oberon shortly
before Captain Jerran took command. At the time, she was the Chief of
Security, and she just recently rose to the position of First Officer.
Where Jerran will usually err on the side of diplomacy when it comes to
conflict, t'Jon is a believer in the old adage of a loaded phaser being the best
diplomat. Though they are often at odds about tactical decisions, Jerran
and t'Jon thoroughly respect each other.
Second Officer/Operations Manager, USS Oberon: LCDR
Trevor McBride
Commander McBride came aboard the Oberon just after
Jerran took command. He started out as the ship's Chief Engineer, and has
a very bad habit of trying to give the current CEO, LT Parker, advice on how to
keep the engines running smoothly. He is generally an easy going, laid
back sort of guy who enjoys spending his off hours in the lounge socializing
with the rest of the crew.
Chief Flight Control Officer, USS Oberon: LT
Jennifer Cartwright
LT Cartwright is one of Jerran's oldest friends in
Starfleet. She actually introduced him to St John Briggs at the academy,
with whom Jerran would eventually have a passionate, but star crossed
relationship. She's almost as good of a pilot as Jerran is, but she
usually doesn't have the confidence in herself to see it. Secretely, she's
always harbored a disappointment that her relationship with Jerran never grew to
something more than a close friendship. Before joining the crew of the Oberon,
Cartwright commanded a fighter squadron during the Dominion War.
Navigation Specialist, USS Oberon: LCDR (Honorary)
Belock
One of the most enigmatic members of Oberon's
crew, the Medusan navigator Commander Belock won't even admit his true
age. From their many conversations over the years, Jerran has gotten a
glimpse of this being's extraordinary life and mind, a life which Jerran
estimates has spanned at least 6000 years. Despite his age and experience,
he still has a passion for exploring space and meeting new lifeforms. As a
Medusan, he has an uncanny knack for feeling the ebb and flow of space and time
around him, allowing him to navigate without much outside sensory input.
When Starfleet started exploring the Gamma Quadrant via the Bajoran wormhole, he
offered his services as a navigator. He was assigned to the USS Feynman,
where he met a young pilot named Ensign Jerran Terel. Belock helped Jerran
tune his Vulcan psionic skills in order to communicate with each other without
any external machinery.
Chief of Security, USS Oberon: LCDR Jenna D'Sora
CDR D'Sora with Enterprise-D 2nd Officer LCDR Data
Commander D'Sora started her Starfleet career as a
tactical specialist on board the USS Enterprise. She had a special
knack for getting into relationships with emotionally unavailable men, such as
the Enterprise's android second officer, LCDR Data. Shortly after
her affair with Commander Data, she transferred to the USS Antietem,
where she served under Security Chief t'Jon. When t'Jon was offered the
position of Oberon's XO, she recommended D'Sora for the job of chief of
security. Though she is new to commanding a department, t'Jon has the
utmost confidence in her.
Chief Engineering Officer, USS Oberon: LT Lonewind
Parker
Having grown up on the Dorvan V colony in the
Demilitarized Zone, LT Parker was one of the first of a group of Starfleet
officers who decided to resign their commission to join the Maquis.
Because of the Dominion, however, he was one of only a handful of Maquis who
survived the war. Due to the fact that he never committed any crimes
against Federation targets during the war, Parker was given a full pardon and
was offered his commission, which he accepted. As a member of the group of
people formally known as North American Indians, LT Parker is highly devoted to
practicing the traditions of his people in order to honor his ancestors.
He has a slightly antagonistic relationship with the ship's Second Officer,
Commander McBride, who is the former chief engineer who can't seem to stay out
of engineering. To get back at Commander McBride's occasional medaling, LT
Parker will sometimes stage Indian rituals to summon the spirit of the warp core
whenever McBride arrives. Parker joined the crew in time to help with the
recent refit, and was instrumental in writing the software governing the ship's
new variable geometry warp nacelles.
Chief Science Officer, USS Oberon: LT Mirani
Cadet Mirani
The Benzite LT Mirani is one of the newest senior
officers, only having been out of the Academy for a year now. She
completed her PhD dissertation on Benzar just before boarding the Oberon.
She specialized in high energy physics and cosmology. She doesn't have
much of a social life outside of her work, something the ship's Deltan
Counselor, LT Devore, is always trying to change. Mirani's cousin, Hoya,
was a pilot assigned to Deep Space 9 when she was killed on a mission to the
Gamma quadrant in 2373 where Captain Sisko and his crew was able to recover a
crashed Jem'Hadar attack ship.
Chief Medical officer, USS Oberon: LT t'Lera
LT t'Lera started her Starfleet career 8 years ago
as a nurse on board the USS Moscow. She just recently obtained her
MD, and was assigned to the Oberon just prior to the refit.
Counselor, USS Oberon: LT Devore
As a Deltan, LT Devore is one of the warmest and
most open members of the crew, a great attribute for a counselor. Ever
since meeting, LT Devore and Commander McBride have been somewhat fascinated by
each other and have developed a friendship, but LT Devore's cultural inhibition
against taking advantage of a sexually immature species, as Deltans refer to
humans, has prevented them from doing much more than just playful flirting.
Commanding Officer, Rihannsu Starbase Veloris:
khre'Riov D'Ana t'Ehrowhin
khre'Riov t'Ehrowhin has always been something of a
nonconformist in Romulan society. Even before the fall of the government
due to the Reman uprising and the loss of the Tal Shiar fleet in the Gamma
Quadrant, t'Ehrowhin was a vocal advocate for a return to the old ways of Romulus,
the ways of Mnhei'Sahe, that were practiced before the Tal Shiar started
taking more control almost 80 years ago. One of her greatest heroes is
khre'Riov Ael t'Rllaillieu, who predicted the dishonorable course Romulus was
taking over a hundred years ago. khre'Riov t'Rllaillieu helped the crew of
the USS Enterprise, NCC-1701, on many occasions. She was branded a
traitor when she stole the fabled Saharien sword from the Romulan Senate.
t'Ehrowhin was lucky to have an ally in the Senate, namely her father, who kept
the Tal Shiar from exiling her for her eccentricities.
Tal Shiar Operative, Rihannsu Starbase Veloris:
Major L'Daia t'Khellian
Major t'Khellian and khre'Riov t'Ehrowhin started
out at the Romulan military academy as close friends. Upon graduation,
however, that friendship turned into bitter rivalry as they both went their separate
ways. Despite the disastrous defeat of the Tal Shiar by the Dominion, they
do have some support in the Senate and military, as they were always very
effective at obtaining information. Though they are now much more focused
towards external threats than before, t'Ehrowhin still resents having her old
rival here as a blatant spy for the Tal Shiar, and is sure that t'Khellian is
vying for her position permanently.
Commanding Officer, USS Belerophon: Commander Stark
Keller
CDR Stark Keller
Commander Stark started his military career in the Bajoran Militia, where he was
stationed on Deep Space 9 under Commander Benjamin Sisko. Eventually, Stark was promoted
to Major and transferred to the Bajoran defense fleet. Stark commanded a
Bajoran assault ship during Colonel Kira Nerys' blockade of Bajor, staged
in order to prevent the Romulans from using one of the Bajoran moons as a
weapons storage base. When Bajor was admitted into the Federation a few
years ago, the Militia was absorbed into Starfleet, and Stark was granted a
Starfleet comission. He has just recently taken command of the Bellerophon,
an Intrepid class starship. Commander Stark has an older sister,
Stark Kera, who serves aboard the Oberon as the Operations department
Chief Petty Officer.
Commanding Officer, USS Ptolemy: Commander Cirol
Commander Cirol commands the Nova class USS Ptolemy.
As the ship has never seen combat before and is not as tactically strong as the Oberon
or Bellerophon, she was reluctant to take this assignment in Romulan
space. However, she understands the diplomatic importance of the mission,
and has confidence that her fellow Starfleet officers will watch the Ptolemy's
back. She harbors no such illusions about the Romulans, however.
