Backstory

Kristen was born aboard the USS Constitution in 2355. She was the daughter of two Starfleet officers; Lieutenant Jessica Young and Lt Cmdr Mark Young; who managed to serve together throughout her entire childhood. Kristen was born and raised in space and because of that she has a wealth of experience in the field that makes her seem knowledgeable beyond her years. By the age of 5 she had seen more worlds then most would see in a lifetime. Over the years she took a particular interest in exploring alien cultures and this has caused her to take up a few interesting hobbies. In her spare time she can be found playing Tango or Caltoe. She has always taken a particular interest in Ferengi culture. She finds them to be an endearing people. Once you accept the greed, misogyny and lack of loyalty. She graduated Starfleet academy and was assigned to her first posting aboard Starbase Athena.

Sample Post

You have arrived at your newest assignment...

Kristen stepped off the turbo lift and walked into the operations center of Starbase Athena. This was her first assignment following graduation. Kristen came back to deep space with mixed emotions. On one hand she was nervous because this was her first official assignment. However, on the other hand, it felt like she was coming home. She had been trapped on Earth for four years with only brief periods of respite off the planet. Growing up in deep space aboard Federation Starships she felt trapped while in the academy. Being Salutatorian of her class left her with her pick off assignments. Her instinct was to put herself as far from Earth as possible. Although she was human a childhood spent in space made Earth feel more like a layover than home. She noticed the operations console and approached it with a certain amount of hesitation in steps. She ran her fingers along the top of the console and quickly found herself at ease in her new surroundings. She took a deep breathe and muttered softly. "Welcome home." She approached Admiral Deacon and moved her muscles into attention...

"Admiral. Ensign Kristen Young reporting as ordered."
