Personality & Traits
| General Overview | She’s adaptable and a quick-learner when her interest is engaged. When it comes to divvying up the work, she’ll usually volunteer for the hard stuff and leave cooking and the like to someone else … anyone else. She’s a loving and loyal friend, the type to run toward danger, to place herself between others and the chaos. She can sleep practically anywhere and has no interest whatsoever in small talk. She laughs easily and often, enjoys adventure, and hates being left behind. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Strengths: + Independent and self-reliant + Investigative, questioning mind + Good at archery and quarterstaffs (hey it was a phase) + Adaptive to new situations + Curious - a bit of an explorer at heart + Intuitive - she thinks both consciously and subconsciously and she’s good at putting pieces together + Likes working with her hands. Back home, she builds furniture from wood. Finds its a good way to quiet her mind. She has a holodeck program that is basically a re-creation of her workshop. Weaknesses: - She is patient but also quite stubborn, not one to give up on something though she’s not above doing it sub rosa rather than overtly. - She likes spending time with people but doesn’t develop really close, intense relationships quickly. She’s more likely to keep people at a distance until she knows them well enough; inviting you to her quarters is a sign that she’s begun to trust you. Quirks She loathes communication before she’s had her morning coffee (used to be tea but that changed on Earth too) - strong and black. Do not get in between her and that coffee. Its as easy as that. Hates, literally hates, women who flirt with men as a way to get things done - it's a way to lose her respect almost instantly. |
|
| Ambitions | To the do the best she can and hopefully, see something new in the process | |
| Hobbies & Interests | Hobbies/Interests: Hiking, swimming, diving, climbing, martial arts, horror (books, vids, and especially, holonovels with a horror theme - that was something she was introduced to at the Academy), cats (the Cygnian version is more like a miniature puma in looks and coloring but retains that independent personality that she likes … you have to earn a cat’s affection), hot baths by candlelight, especially when shared, spending time with friends, horseback riding and skiing (thank you Earth!) and trying new things (especially when there’s an edge of danger - adrenaline junkie) |
| Personal History | She really doesn’t understand why so many Federation cultures have such a problem with her own. She grew up in a small town, populated only by women, and, like every other woman she knows, has grown up doing what needs to be done. One of her parents (both are female naturally) is an oceanographer and the other is an artist. Her parents have a sprawling beach house and an easy-going attitude toward child rearing which left many opportunities for their only daughter, an explorer at heart, to find adventure (and usually create a bit of mayhem). From her oceanographer parent, she learned an appreciation of her world’s oceans and finds a peace to being on the water that defies description. There have been times since, when life became a bit too much to handle, that she’s retreated to the home world, to spend time on a boat or on the shore, watching the waves and the marine life. Reconnecting with herself. From her artist parent, she learned to appreciate the beauty that surrounded her though she never embraced the artistic life herself. She attended local schools and made friends easily. She did well in anything that caught her interest and poorly in anything that didn’t. She enjoys competition, both with herself and against others, and thrives when she’s moving and involved. Being a bit wild and adventurous meant that she was often in trouble. When it came time to think about her future, she really didn’t know what to do and while she did her best, ultimately, she couldn’t avoid making a decision forever. On the one hand, she loved her childhood, her parents, and the beauty of her world; on the other hand, there she was quietly dying for lack of challenge. She needed more. Her answer was just to ignore the problem, to throw herself into schoolwork and extra-curricular activities. Among her circle of friends was Meital, daughter of a member of the ambassador’s staff, who nearly died when their ship was attacked by pirates while on its return trip to the home world. Meital’s tale of their rescue by Starfleet personnel fired Dani’s imagination in a way nothing else had. |
