Personal History
“She looks just like you, lets call her P’Tara” was the first thing her father said when her blond mane came into this world. P’Tera knew K’Nell was joking - her fur was jet-black - but agreed to the name because she thought the idea would hold the joyous memory of her birth.
P'Tara's mother was an artist which was quite common in a culture that prided itself so heavily on the beauty of things. Her father was a psychologist. His focus was on the criminal aspect of the living psychi. What makes people do what they do when they break the law and hurt others? He once told P'Tara that it was a question he had been searching for an answer to his entire life.
Despite her mother desperately wanting her to become an artist, P’Tara always felt closer to her father and would often sit in front of the open fire in their living room listening to his rather detailed stories about the many criminals he had assessed that day.
In time he began to work for Starfleet via contract work, assisting with some of their more insane criminals. This took him away from home alot and P’Tara missed him but she was reaching the end of her schooling and knew that the time to make her own life’s path was coming closer.
After much deliberation P’Tara decided that she wanted to accomplish two things in her life; to assist her father in finding his ‘answer’ and to explore as much as she could in her life-time. K’Nell spoke highly of Starfleet whenever he was at home and so P’Tara applied to the Academy along with a number of other options.
The Academy accepted her along with another college on her home world. Much to her mother’s dismay P’Tara took the leap and accepted the Academy’s entry.
She began by majoring in criminal-psychology and counseling. The more she learned of the dangers that were out in the many universes they would be traveling through though the more P’Tara began to rethink her own destiny. The need to protect others was strong with her and her ability to see in the dark, leap large distances and bring her own claws to any fight provided her an edge that she realised could save a lot of lives.
After completing her first year in criminal-psychology and counseling she switched her studies focuses so that she could serve in Security. Finally graduating with acceptable scores, P’Tara was assigned to the Starbase Alpha where she spent three years serving in their Security Department whilst also providing multiple psych-based reports on data collected on the enemy.
The result of the attack at Krynar hit P’Tara very hard as she believed that all living things have a reason to do what they do. A purpose. Despite her ill-feelings P’Tara remained with Starfleet but asked to be reassigned to a vessel, feeling it was time she spread her claws and saw what else is out there to see.
P’tara was re-assigned to fill the role of Chief of Security on the Gettysburg
Personality Profile
Academy Major(s): Security
Academy Minor(s): Criminal Psychology
Hobbies and Pastimes: Pouncing on people and giving them hugs after pretending to stalk them. P’Tara dosnt do this so much anymore after she played the trick on a visiting Admiral who did not take kindly to it.
Short-Term Goals: To make friends and explore what she can explore. To make her father proud and assist him in finding his ‘answer’.
Long-Term Goals: Open up a criminal rehabilitation center back on her home planet and run it with her father. Star Fleet is only a step in her life and she has no vision of serving her entire life, though she keeps this fact herself.
Personality: Enjoys the company of others, treats everyone she meets naturally like a friend. At times she can come across as too playful or even flirty. Often jokes around and easily has fun in any situation.
Sense of Humor: She finds humor in everything, she seems to not take her job seriously to people who don't know her.
Phobias: Scared of water.
Likes: Hugs. Spending time with friends. Sitting down with a criminal and seeing if she can clue out how they ‘tick’
Dislikes: Water and getting wet.
Pet Peeves or Gripes: How can someone not like hugs?!” People who take life too seriously.
Bad Habits or Vices: Will lick her wrist and brush her hair with it when stressed.
Achievements: Graduating the Academy
Disappointments: Her papers/reports not being taken seriously enough to sway Starfleet and stop the destruction of the Krynar race
Illnesses: Was surprised to get feline influenza from a campus cat while attending the Academy on earth, but was treated with no long term effects.
Strengths: Her arms and legs, literally. Can leap 10 meters horizontally from a crouching position. She is also able to see in the dark and sneak up on most people/things without them hearing her.
Weaknesses: Tries to become friends with the criminals under her care, whether they like it or not.
Fears: She is terrified of the idea of finding a criminal without any redeeming values; a truly evil person. She is particularly worried about the Borg as a whole.
Prejudices: She has no prejudices, to a fault. She would prefer to capture Borg individuals for rehabilitation if at all possible
Off Duty Clothing Tastes: Silks and lace. So long as it isn’t ‘heavy’
Distinguishing Features: Often wears lipstick, a tradition she picked up from her human friends at the academy. Has a scratch mark on her cheek - (during a training exercise she accidentally swiped her own cheek when attempting to disarm someone. She had been too ‘cocky’ of her own natural advantage and so decided to keep the scratch mark to remind herself to never underestimate others and to remain humble)
Pets: A small dog named Rusty who she leaves in the care of her parents
Friends: She considers everyone her best friend unless proven otherwise
Personal Paradigm Shifts
Most Painful Experience: The first time she had to “shoot to kill”. She has gotten better at rationalising it as a necessary course of action, but she is forever unsure if it is ever truly justified.
Best Time: She loved her time at the Academy, hanging out with many different types of passionate people.
Most Crucial Experience: Her father teaching her about bad people as a warning when she was young.
Role Model: She loves the play “Cats”, particularly The Rum Tum Tugger she saw in an all Caitian production.
