March 2010 – Sion

Weight: ~215 lbs.
Hair: black
Eyes: black
Skin: tanned with olive undertones
Apparent age: Young-Adult (late-30s)
Distinguishing features: None

Personality & Traits

On the Resistance: As a natural reaction to those that attempt to control you through violence, it is merely logical to assume there will be those that will resist it. Sion's personal feelings on the matter is that as long as they do not interfere with him and his then he won't have to interfere with them.

On the Imperial Starfleet (Eik-te'kru Yel-Halitra): He has little dealings with Starfleet and has, until later, very precious dealings with those of the Terran race. While he may personally disagree with the concept of forced capitulation, he understands that it is ultimately doomed to failure and the knowledge that Starfleet will one day fail gives him a sense of superiority to those people that he wisely keeps to himself. In so long that the Vulcan populous is under Terran influence, however, they are a necessary evil to be dealt with. His personal opinions often clash with his feelings about his brother who joined Starfleet and is therefore helping perpetuate the cycle of abuse.

On Aliens: Sion hasn't had much experience with Aliens (non-Vulcans), a situation he plans on changing especially if he plans on following through with his new field of study.

February 2010 – Archie Campbell


Appearance

Before you stands a well built young human male of just over six feet. His tousled light brown hair complements his even, biscuit-coloured tan and ice-blue eyes, which constantly scan his surroundings. His face, while weathered for a man of his age is unmarked, save for a small thin scar below his left cheekbone, which all but disapears when he smiles. His body while toned, is not a ripling mass of muscle, offering a wiriness to his frame. A pair of powerful arms fall from broad shoulders to rest gently at his side. His legs are a contrast to his upper body, powerfully built akin to that of a professional athlete or runner.

Personality & Traits

Owing to a single-minded drive since childhood for a Starfleet career, Campbell has "never been a family man". However, when asked about having children of his own Campbell once replied that "wishing for a thing does not make it so." Lingering throughout Campbell's life is a series of unsuccessful romantic relationships, stemming in part from his introspective nature as a career officer and his self-professed desire to avoid long-term commitments.

January 2010 – Tlara Pou


Early Years

Tlara was born February 14, 2177, to a slave girl and master in a major starport city of the planet Orion. Her early childhood can be inferred to be uneventful, allowing her the opportunity to learn to read and the cultivation of her intellectual talents. It is unclear whether her mother, father, or both parents approved of this.

As told by Tlara, a brutal gang attack in 2188 left Tlara an orphan, the gang then putting her to work in a seedy club of theirs. As gang wars brought one group or another into power in her neighborhood, she was left to bounce around from one establishment to another working as a waitress and then a dancer. Eventually she was sold off to a club catering to Imperial VIPs, including high ranking Imperial Starfleet officers, some of whom she danced for at times. She says she got by with minimal difficulty because she had a healthy respect for power and the authority it brings, and became proficient at giving medical aid by helping her co-workers when they acted up and were punished.

December 2009 – Constitution Class


History

The Constitution class first appeared in the Mirror Universe in 2155. The USS Defiant (from the normal universe) was lured through an interphasic rift by the Tholians of the Mirror Universe. It was later captured from the Tholians by the Imperial Starfleet.

Loss of the USS Defiant

The USS Defiant was used as a weapon of war. With technology and weaponry that was a century ahead of its time, the Terran Empire used the Defiant to expand their territory throughout the Alpha and Beta quadrants. It was a major player in the Earth-Romulan War, but was severely damaged in battle during one of the skirmishes.
