Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Cerywyn is not someone you want to annoy or make angry, as many a Federation enemy has come to know. Her work ethic is intense and she often expects the same of her crew. She will also step in when she thinks an officer has spent him or herself to the point of exhaustion. While she expects hard work, she also encourages downtime, as a tired crew is not a good crew. Her friends know her as a compassionate, caring individual - as does her crew. At the same time, when it comes to the Federation and Starfleet - she is all business. If she smiles in a meeting, that is not a good thing. She is an empath/telepath of the highest order - one who is well trained and extremely gifted. That said, she keeps her ability tightly controlled and does not intrude on anyone's thoughts - other than those passively floating on the surface. When needed however, she can and has brought the full force of her ability to bare usually to the detriment of her enemy who might have wished for death instead. She can be coldly and brutally efficient when the need arises. She will not take avoidable risks and she is known for breaking the rules and asking forgiveness later - especially when lives are at stake and can be saved. |
|
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Her main weakness is her sense of loyalty and honor to her crew - her intense need to protect them from harm Her greatest strength: the same intense need to protect her crew from harm. She will take all measures necessary to save a life - rather than to take it. |
|
| Ambitions | Ambitions have always been to see the Federation and Starfleet thrive - her whole life has been given over to making sure the right people were in the right places at the right time.... from the very beginning until now. |
|
| Hobbies & Interests | Hobbies??? - Work...and then more work. She is an insatiable student of knowledge. |
History
| Personal History | I am 446 years old. Though most humans find that figure staggering, it is really quite young for an El Aurian. Although we age, we age at a rate most humans do not understand. Our life spans are extremely long and generally cover centuries and more. To be 444 is to be physically appearing to be about 40ish in human years. I grew up in Boreal on the El Aurian Home world. My parents were both educators and researchers at the university. They later became chosen ambassadors from our world to earth...a job they did well. My world, the one in which I grew up in has always been one full of learning...of knowledge and of stories from days past. As I grew, I accompanied my parents on their treks to Earth. For many centuries we were only quiet observers, unobtrusive strangers who just appeared from nowhere. My parents witnessed first hand America's birth and I saw its fall...I saw war mar the landscape and forever change the lives of people. My father began to despair of Earth ever being peaceful. My parents even saw the beginnings of the Federation emerging. If they could only see it now. Despite popular belief, our presence did become known and accepted to a chosen few in the ranks of power and command in the Federation, it has ever been so. Then suddenly my race was gone, except for a few hapless survivors like me. I had only been a member of the High Council for about 50 years when they arrived.... from the darkest reaches of space they came...swarming like bees to a hive.... The Borg.... annihilating everything in their path...Resistance is futile will always haunt my dreams. I contacted a friend I had long known who was now at Star Fleet Command. She helped relocate me to my home on the coast of Ireland...secluded away from all the things I wanted to leave behind. I have continued my work in psychology and the space-time continuum, occasionally being of use to Star fleet as long as they didn't make it public. Repeatedly, I have refused their request to become part of their organization, preferring as always to work on the periphery. It is only at the urgent request of a friend and my own inner voice haunting my sleep, that I find myself donning once more, a Starfleet uniform. This time with great trepidation. |

| Service Record | -----------------Starfleet Service Record---------------- Rank: Fleet Admiral Current Assignment: CO – SB Versailles & YaDalla Sector The service record is missing a few things because I did not keep it fully up to date in the old database. This is most of it, but not all of it. Prior to joining Starfleet, she served as Chief Counsel to the El Aurian High Council. She was awarded the El Aurian Silver Cross...for mediating a dispute between rival members of the high council thereby preventing a hostile faction from forming with in our race.

Her skills have been requested and granted by any number of high ranking Federation officials, Starfleet branches and various governments as well as the lowest of civilian peoples across the Federation space and then some. That said she has never been known to violate another’s personal space without their consent or without it being a direct order from a superior and even then it is with a sense of distaste for the task. She is passively linked with those she serves and even though passive, it is one that once made is not easily worn away but it is imperceptible to those not psi gifted and only lightly to those with psi ability. She is a capable officer who inspires loyalty in those with whom she works. She is prone to being pig-headed and taciturn. She has a tendency to forget that not everyone has her work ethic and most people enjoy a good night’s sleep and an occasional break even if she does not. Never mistake her small stature or slight appearance as weak or fragile. When the task demands it, she is harder than a diamond and colder than a polar ice cap. =End Transmission= |
