== Welcome to your holodeck Cadet Bowman

Read the following information carefully, because it has a fair amount of important information for you.  If you have any questions or difficulties at any time, please contact one of the following people for assistance.  We’d be glad to help you out.

Commander Jasal
Commander Shanth

Remember during your time at Academy people have responsibilities such as school, jobs, and family, as well as maintaining our site. There are times when we may have to wait longer than we’d like for a reply to a post or a question. Patience and treating each other with respect and dignity are two things that are absolutely required of all members.

On the flip side, the Constitution states that players need to post at least twice a week.  If you find you are unable to keep up due to something coming up in real life responsibilities or you’re just going to be on holiday, please let one of the Admins know.  You can be granted a leave of absence for the length of time you think you’ll be away.  If you don’t let us know and you suddenly disappear, this could end up with you being considered AWOL and eventually removed from the active cadet roster.

Now… with all of that said, let’s get to your character’s bio!

Please begin by posting your bio using the template below. Once posted, your bio will be reviewed by an Evaluations representative. They will post comments for you and suggest any adjustments your bio might require.  Once they approve your bio, you will be assigned an instructor and your adventure will begin!

Federation Space is a written RPG. With that said, we ask that you try to pay attention to spelling and grammar in your posts.  Posts properly formatted are easier and more enjoyable for everyone to read. I strongly recommend you run your bio and any posts you make through a spell check before posting them.

Next are a few resources that can help you as you write your bio:

Be sure to check out playable races

Our character development page is a great resource to help you fill out your bio form.

Along with character development is information about the Star Fleet Academy Curriculum, including Majors and Minors.

One last thing, please take time to read and understand our site’s canon page. This will help you understand what 'Trek' related information is included on our site.

Again, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!  And as always - have fun!

== Personal History ==
Date of Birth: October 7
Place of Birth: Earth
Marital Status: Single
Siblings Name & Ages: None
Mother's Name: Christina
Father's Name: Patrick
Parent's Status: Alive, but not on speaking terms with their daughter
Pets: None
Best Friend: Doesn’t have anyone in particular she classifies as a best friend. However, anyone she let’s address her by her middle name is close enough
Personal History: Born to a pair of scientists, Mika was always immersed in the scientific fields growing up. During her early teenage years, she began to slightly rebel against her parents and tried to forge her own path, not wanting to be forced into the life her parents wanted for her. However, she realized there was still a way to become a scientist on her own.
 
The path Mika found was entering Starfleet. With a renewed sense of exploration, Starfleet seemed like the best path to scientific curiosity and intrigue. Unfortunately her parents were completely against the idea, as they believed Starfleet was nothing more than a military and that it’s scientific fields wouldn’t be enough for Mika. Despite their objections, Mika opted to enter the service. Feeling betrayed by their daughter, Mika was cut off.
 
Feeling momentarily hurt, Mika looked forward towards the opportunity that her future career would present. The first step was getting through the necessary time at the Academy. For the most part, it felt like nothing more than a higher paced form of schooling. Mika only struggled in the basic departmental cross-training classes, while breezing through her science courses. Despite her struggles, Mika managed to just barely pass so that she would be eligible for graduation.
 
With the dawn of being given an actual assignment, Mika couldn’t help but be pumped for where she might end up. While she’d prefer to be assigned to one of the various deep-space vessels, she wouldn’t say no to somewhere that had a nicely stocked lab. Despite her wishes, her instructors did tell her to keep her expectations tempered whenever her orders were drafted.
 
== Personality ==
Academy Majors: Science
Academy Minors: Emergency Medical Treatment
Hobbies & Past-Times: Mika tends to be too engrossed in her scientific studies to have time for a social life and the like
Short-Term Goals: Make a unique discovery in her scientific field
Long-Term Goals: One day rebuild the relationship she lost with her parents
Personality: Tends to be quiet and unassuming, typically staying close to herself except in situations where she trusts someone enough
Sense of Humor: Doesn’t tend to be much of a jokester
Phobias: Mika doesn’t see herself blindly afraid of much, as she realizes most, if not all, occurrences in the universe have some scientific reason
Likes: Spending time in the science lab, trying to find some new discovery
Dislikes: Being pressured into a large gathering, she’s a people person but not when it comes to hordes
Pet Peeves/Gripes: She hates how she gets compared to nothing more than a military officer, and not as a scientist
Bad Habits / Vices: There are times where she can easily lose track of time inside the lab, and even managed to fall asleep once or twice due to exhaustion
Achievements: While Mika’s sure she managed to be awarded some achievements during her short lifetime, she hasn’t achieved anything she finds noteworthy
Disappointments: That her parents couldn’t accept her joining Starfleet to expand her scientific horizon
Illnesses: Nothing overly major than what a Human would be exposed to during their early years
Strengths: Her ability to focus on the scientific aspects
Weaknesses: Mika sees herself as having many weaknesses, but only because she focuses on her main strength and never truly honed any other potential skills
Fears: Anything that can’t have a truly scientific answer
Prejudices: Religious ideas that ignore any basis in scientific fact.
 
== Questions ==
Most Painful Experience: Losing her parents. While she understands their hatred of the military, she never expected them to cut off all ties.
Best Time: Spending hours upon hours inside the lab.
Most Crucial Experience: Pursuing her own aspects for her career. Maybe she’d have had a happier family life in a world without her joining Starfleet, but she knows she’d regret it.
Role Model: Starfleet Officer D’Vana Tendi. The fact that someone could go from a life of being an Orion Pirate to a successful scientist is something Mika can respect. She even respects that Tendi’s Orion family never cut her off for her career aspects.

==Good afternoon, I am Commander Carrs and I will be assisting you with the first stage of the Academy process; the development of your character bio.

So far, a great start! Well done!

I would like to see a little more about Mika's early life and adolescence described in the Personal History section. Right now it reads like the only defining event of her youth was joining Starfleet and being disowned. I'd like to see what caused her to rebel, be it an event or person, and who or what made her decide to join Starfleet.

Please flesh out your personal history with those details, and we can continue!==

Personal History: Born to a pair of scientists, Mika was always immersed in the scientific fields growing up. During her early teenage years, she began to slightly rebel against her parents and tried to forge her own path, as she started to believe her parents were trying to control every aspect of her life.

Despite her initial enjoyment of the scientific fields, there were times that Mika wondered if she liked it because she chosen to do so, or rather if her parents had simply forced it upon her. She’d also wondered if her being more of ‘science geek’ was hindering herself socially. The fact that it happened during her mid-teenage years didn’t slow her trying to sneak out at night, trying to hang out with the more popular kids her age.

A bit of underage drinking wasn’t doing her any favors in the short term either, especially as Mika learned she couldn’t handle much liquor and would often wake up with heavy hangover-induced migraines. Nor did it help when she found out that her parents knew all about it, and hadn’t even tried to stop her. According to them, they were just allowing Mika to get out of her system, so that their plans for her career wouldn’t be jeopardized when she was on her own.

Mika still wasn’t sure whether or not being a scientist was what she wanted herself. That being said, she was tired of feeling like the lab rat in her parent’s experiment. Being a scientist seemed to be her future, however one thing she knew was that it wasn’t going to be on her parents’ terms, but hers. They expected her to operate out of their lab on Earth, which Mika saw as limiting. After months of searching, she believed she found a path that would both allow her to be a scientist in the unknown, and even better yet, stick it to her parents one more time.

The path Mika found was entering Starfleet. With a renewed sense of exploration, Starfleet seemed like the best path to scientific curiosity and intrigue. Unfortunately her parents were completely against the idea, as they believed Starfleet was nothing more than a military and that its scientific fields wouldn’t be enough for Mika. Despite their objections, Mika opted to enter the service. Feeling betrayed by their daughter, Mika was cut off.
