Kassandra Vance is a Human serving as Chief Science Officer on the [[USS Brahe]] 

===== Background =====

==== Career ====
Born and raised in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vancouver|Vancouver, British Columbia, Earth]]. Kass’ interest in astronomy and space led her to Starfleet against the wishes of her parents (she enlisted in 2409, while tensions between the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Free State, and the Federation were high). Her early career after graduation saw her posted on the [[USS Iqaluit]] (California Class) for four years. Kass got her promotion to full Lieutenant in 2417, and transferred to the Intrepid-Class [[USS Courage]] later that year. During her service on the Courage, she conducted studies of stars at various stages of stellar evolution, from protostars to white dwarfs. She took the Bridge Officer’s Test in November 2420, and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, with another transfer to the [[USS Brahe]] following a month’s shore leave.

==== Personal Life ====
Kass tends to be fairly outgoing and friendly, making new friends easily. As a science officer, her specialties are in Astrophysics, with a focus on Stellar Dynamics and Evolution. She is not the most creative of officers, but excels at being able to dredge up information from both sensors and library reference to make sense of strange phenomena. Outside of her work, she spends a lot of time in the gym and on the holodeck, physically training and practicing taekwondo - in the latter she currently holds the brown belt.

On away missions, she tends to leap before she looks, especially if a teammate is in danger (real or perceived), though this habit has slowly begun to wane as she adapts to the new responsibilities of her rank. She obeys orders with a minimum of fuss; she respects superior officers unless given good reason not to (such as gross breach of trust). She is more brash in social settings, and has little problem with taking a higher ranking officer or higher-status official down a peg or two (either verbally or through some contest) if in her judgement said person has earned the puncturing and if said puncturing does not conflict with Starfleet Regulations.

| Resolute            | You are indomitable, and unwilling to succumb to adversity.

| Expedition Expert   | Prior to participating in an away team mission, your character may prepare by performing a research Task. If you succeed, you may spend Momentum to allow your character to substitute your Science discipline in place of any other, during any Task to navigate or traverse difficult terrain during the mission. Each point of Momentum spent from the research Task in this way allows for one such substitution.  |

| I Don’t Let Anyone Define or Confine Me.                                  | Kass is wary of any authority that oversteps its bounds, and will resist, violently if need be, any attempts to contain or manipulate her.                                                                                                                            |
| Our First Duty is to the Truth.                                           | As a scientist, a Starfleet Officer, and a sentient being, Kass respects honesty and tries to be honest in turn.                                                                                                                                                      |
| When Conventional Research Fails to Provide Answers, Go Unconventional.   | Kass is a competent researcher, but has come to recognize that sometimes her instruments and references will not be enough to solve a problem. In such circumstances, she is more willing to take risks with herself and her equipment to get the answers she needs.  |
| Family is Not Limited to Blood.                                           | Kass considers her friends and crewmates to be her family in many ways; and can be fiercely protective of them.                                                                                                                                                       |
