Character Biography

(Invited as CE of Merri)
Fire red hair in curls that seem as wild as their wearer. Usually pulled back into knot at the base of her neck, but ocassionally someone will get to see her ‘off guard’ and it will be down. But it’s rare. ((Claim is Bryce Dallas Howard, the second Victoria on Twilight))

Romanian heritage. Grew up as modern day Gypsy moving a lot as work was needed. Could fix things at a young age. Finally recruited to academy after fixing a lieutenant’s motorcycle after drinking contest she won. The bet was, if she won, she’d get shot at fixing his joke. If she lost, she’d admit women had no business using a wrench or being around engines.... She won and he was impressed she did it after all the drinking, right there in the parking lot with small tool box in her truck.

Thinks out of the box. Great at finding ways to “get around” problems she can’t immediately solve. She’s scared full darkness, so even in her quarters she adjusts the lights so they can’t actually go off completely.

5 yrs at Academy (lost a year for disciplinary reasons… Probation last two years of school)
4 yrs ensign in Academy vehicle shop (learned more ship repair from other engineers there)
4 yrs on station orbiting Earth helping repair Earth/Station transport ships
Transferred to Merrimack
