Biography

In Dutch the meaning of the name DeWitt is: White.

From this era of Dutch history, those of this who distinguished themselves included Jacob Fransz de Witt (1548-1621), Burgemeester of Dordrecht, member of the States of Holland; Cornelis Fransz de Witt (1545-1622), Burgemeester and regent of Dordrecht,

Mr. John James Dewitt, American Coxswain working aboard the ship "USS Arizona" when she sunk during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on 7th December 1941, he died in the sinking

"I questioned the orders of the wrong morons," she said, clearing her throat, "who were as high in the food-chain as they were lacking in their regard for female, headstrong officers. They told their moronic friends, and wanted me out of their hair, so that they could continue being morons and abuse their command for personal benefit. I prefer, however, to mention no names, but sufficed to say, they did not get any Christmas cards from the Black Opal."

Her shortcoming was that she had not been vocal enough, and dragged the officers in the dirt before it was too late, and they had made their move to get her out of the way. Jennifer sipped her drink, clenched her jaw against the cloying taste but continued.

"I reported them, instead, in all ways I could from my remote location, but I had nothing in term of evidence, and I was clearly a bother, who's messages were circulated like hot coals that no one wanted to deal with. In retrospect, not the best way to get me off the Opal, but I clung to hope that someone would pull my name for a new assignment. The years passed, and now... I'm suddenly here."

Lieutenant Commander Jennifer Dewitt was the Commanding Officer of Black Opal Station during the supply raid executed by the officers and crew of the USS Theurgy during the month of March in 2381. Although she attempted to defend the station from the incursion, she soon ordered a surrender when she was captured by the Theurgy’s first officer Commander Carrigan Trent. She was skeptical during Trent’s initial attempt to sew doubt into the falsified reputation of the Theurgy for Starfleet Command had declared that Captain Jien Ives and his/her crew had defected to the Romulans. Starfleet’s claim was proven false when the Romulans attacked Black Opal after being fed intelligence from an agent who had infiltrated Starbase 84. She saw firsthand the lengths the Theurgy’s personnel were willing to go to keep Federation data and technology out of foreign hands.

She was evacuated along with the rest of Black Opal’s personnel and met with Captain Ives, who convinced her to join his/her crew and fight against the mysterious parasites who had taken over Starfleet Command. During the raid on Starbase 84, Trent made Jennifer Dewitt and Yukimura from the Black Opal his closest adjutants, answering directly to him and helping with intelligence matters. Despite her rank, she had not been appointed the position of Second Officer since Wenn Cinn held that position. During the Starbase 84 mission, she was in command on the USS Allegiant.

Jennifer Dewitt was in command of the Theurgy’s vector 03 stardrive section known as the "Stallion" when the Theurgy first encountered the Savi and the Asurian armada. She was beamed to main bridge in the dreadnought's vector 01 stardrive section known as the "Helmet" when Captain Jien Ives was abducted by the Savi as part of the Continuance Protocol to serve as first officer of that stardrive vector while Natalie Stark was beamed to the vector 03 battle bridge to take her place.

She was on the bridge acting as the vector 01 stardrive section’s executive officer when the Helmet encountered Task Force Archeron.

Personality Profile

Everything is organic, everything is green, everything is local, which is phenomenal! So…a lot of chia pudding, a lot of coconut: coconut flakes, coconut butter, coconut oil.” she explains. “No sweets. No sugar. I skipped dairy, which was actually great for my body. I just felt less bloated. I didn't feel that necessity of milk that we're quite used to pouring down ourselves. It's not healthy, really, so I do almond milk now.

Physical Profile

She admits that she went from never really hitting the gym or caring about what she ate to being on a strict schedule and nutrition regime.
