USS WAYFARER
NCC 87505
Galaxy-class
CO: Captain Hitomi Ozawa - descended from a long line of Japanese naval officers. Decorated veteran of the Dominion War. The current Wayfarer is her 3rd command. Previous commands include the USS Tannenberg - acting CO during the last six months of the Dominion War and the previous Wayfarer which the XO self-destructed during the War of the Gods story-arc. She is currently in a relationship with her executive officer and they have a daughter, aged 4 months.
XO: Commander John A. Shepard - at 27, one of the youngest XOs in Starfleet. His family has a long history of space exploration, including the legendary Alan Shepard of the Mercury and Apollo programmes. He has proposed marriage to CPT Ozawa twice but despite having a child and being extremely close, she has turned him down both times.
First Lieutenant: Lieutenant Commander Kal'tarin, an Andorian warrior, Kal'tarin would rather be serving RRT unit than acting as 3rd in command of the Wayfarer but he needs the assignment if he's ever to command his own RRT battalion. Tough and combative, he usual solution to problems is "fire photon torpedoes".
Strategic Ops Officer: Lieutenant Jo'van Kallin - a Katarian an excellent strategist and tactician, she served on Admiral William Ross' staff during the Dominion War and before joining the Wayfarer spent a year at Starfleet Tactical as deputy head of Borg Tactical Analysis.
Ops Officer: Lieutenant t'Riel - Vulcan. At 56 Starfleet is her second career after 30 years as an instructor at the Vulcan Science Academy. She joined Starfleet to see a bit more of the galaxy. She has a tendency to be a bit more standoffish than your normal Vulcan, and can be a bit of a jerk at times with her strict compliance to rules and regulations.
Conn Officer: Ensign Jessica Thome, freshly minted ensign straight out of the Academy. Jessica led Nova Squadron in her final year and is an ace pilot but nothing much else. She's raw and green, having been rushed through training to make up the numbers in hte wake of the Dominion War.
Ship's Counselor: Lieutenant Rianna Kardeen. A Betazoid she trained in psychology and sociology at Betazed University before joining Starfleet. She attended the Academy with John Shepard and the two are close friends.
CMO: Lieutenant Commander (Dr) Curron A joined Trill, Dr Curron met CPT Ozawa on their first day at the Academy and they are best friends and have served together ever since Curron graduated from medical school. THe previous host of the Curron symbiote had been a Starfleet Intelligence operative and Curron still has connections in the Intel community.
Tactical/Security: Lieutenant Commander Frasier Munroe - from the colony of New Scotland, Munroe speaks with an extremely strong Scottish accent which can sometimes be incomprehensible. Tall and slim he appears to be more a science officer than a security chief but he's an expert shot and an expert in four types of unarmed combat. Altogether a deadly package.
Science Officer: Commander Joram Tarren - from Alpha Centarui, Joram is more at home in his lab than on the bridge. Despite his rank he is not bridge qualified and has no desire to be. He's happiest in his labs. He has Ph.D in astrophysics, Botany and Geology.
Chief Engineer: Lieutenant Carr'ean Josel - a Betazoid who has a quirk in her genetic make-up making her unable to access any part of the Betazoid's usual psi powers. She compensated by studying engineering and mechanics, prefering machines to people who she could not relate to. A first class engineer, Josel won the Scott Prize for Engineering at the Academy.
Arise, arise, Riders of Theoden!
Fell deed awake: fire and slaughter!
Spear shall be shaken, shields be splintered,
a sword-day, a red-day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
