Character Draft Awaiting Approval

Lieutenant Jessica Alana Pierce was a person from another time. Originally from the 23rd Century, and male, Pierce served on various starships before getting caught in a temporal distortion that pulled her into the late 24th Century. Since coming to this century, she experienced a transporter pattern buffer accident which left her the task of adapting to her new life and era. Anderson has tasked her with joining the crew of the USS Theurgy in their fight against the corrupted Starfleet Command of the late 24th century.

Biography

James Alan Pierce was born in 2254 on Earth in the city of New Haven. Growing up, he had all the advantages that the Federation and Earth had to offer. In his endeavors, he took curiosity to the stars and to discover things that were behind the scenes of events taking place.

Later in life, he joined Starfleet and set the wheels in motion of becoming an officer. Hearing the legendary tales of men such as Captain's Pike and Kirk, he was driven to be just as good in the line of duty. He eventually served with Captain Kirk on the original Enterprise for a short two-year stint fresh out of the Academy.

Eventually, he transferred to the USS Eagle in late 2278, another of the refit Constitution Class vessels since those were one of his favorite designs. With the change, he switched specializations from Tactical to Intelligence. The need to dig deeper into the missions at hand as well as selections for particular covert operations drove Pierce’s desire for adventure and Starfleet’s peacekeeping mission. As he went up the ranks throughout the years, he eventually became the Executive Officer aboard the vessel.

In 2286 tragedy would arise as he accepted an undercover intelligence-gathering mission in Klingon space. His mission was to gather samples of a rare form of bio-mimetic gel the Klingons were working with for genetic experimentations. He was also tasked with hacking into their database to compile the plans and the formulas for the compound and destroy their database. The Empire in their desire to beat the Federation employed enzymes from key plants on the surface of the Qu'Vat Colony, which was the same place the Klingons created the Klingon augment virus over a century ago. They hoped to succeed where others had previously failed with this new form of a Klingon mutagenic virus. So they attempted to combine the enzymes and bio-mimetic gel with Klingon and Gorn DNA to create the ultimate warrior. Pierce managed to gather a few containers of the material without the Klingon and Gorn DNA before being captured. Before he set off, Pierce downloaded the information and transmitted it back to Starfleet Command, and set in motion a viral deletion code for the formula to prevent the Empire from taking this to the next stage.

As a result of his escape, he ended up securing the physical materials onboard the shuttlecraft. As a battle ensued, Pierce and his shuttle had collided with a Temporal Distortion where he was reported Missing in Action. In his valiant efforts, he was awarded the Christopher Pike Medal of Valor Posthumously.

In 2380, his shuttlecraft resurfaced in Federation Space after the temporal distortion spat out the small ship. He attempted to beam out to any world, ship, or space station he could muster as the small vessel experienced sudden systems failure and a potential warp core breach. Knocked unconscious by a bulkhead rupture, he was sprayed with the bio-mimetic gel enzyme chemical as he lay sprawled on the deck. Within drifting range of Starbase 82, they beamed Lt. Commander Pierce off the shuttle but due to a pattern buffer malfunction with the compound covering him. It mutated part of his chromosomes which led to a change on his cellular structure.

Pierce found himself combined with the plant’s enzyme and bio-mimetic gel to form a new individual. It was theorized that this had been made possible by the fact that during transport he would have to be broken down to a microcellular level, and so his DNA and proteins were all in a state of molecular flux. If an enzyme causing symbiogenesis interacted with DNA while in the matter stream, their patterns might then be merged. The bio-mimetic gel and enzymes reacted with the separated microcellular state he was in, thus combining DNA. The biochemical analysis of a symbiogenetic plant from the colony was found to be a contributing factor in the creation of Jessica and was found to contain the same elements as many plants including chloroplasts, lysosomal enzymes, and cytoplasmic proteins. As a result, there was only one pattern, the combined one, to rematerialize. The combination was a success, and Jessica had no ill effects physically or mentally.

(The Symbiogenesis was a rare reproductive process. Instead of pollination or mating, symbiogenetic organisms merged with a second species to create a hybrid.)

After the unlucky transporter accident, it resulted in his body being inadvertently converted to a female version of himself due to the plant’s chromosomes being that of a female’s. Although his genetics were almost identical, his male body was unfortunately lost to him forever having no prior transporter pattern on file in the modern era of Starfleet databases. His personality and memories however were the same as they were up to that point of the accident. James decided to accept his fate and don the name of Jessica Alana Pierce and go by the name Alana or Al for short.

With her awakening in sickbay, they ran weeks of tests and determined what it was that caused the issue during transport. Unfortunately, the medical staff was baffled and he was forced to live as a woman for the rest of his existence. As she began to get around again and was reactivated with a new profile in the Starfleet databanks, she wished to continue her career. She began her re-acclimation and reeducation to the 24th Century, bringing some unique insights from the past century.

At the beginning of 2381, Pierce was awarded the "Starfleet Extended Tour Ribbon" for deciding to stay in the ranks and rededicate her life to Starfleet. Soon after the recommitment, Pierce asked to be placed on an assignment almost deemed a no-win scenario wherever he could find it. Anderson sent Pierce and other officers off on intelligence gathering recon missions throughout the Federation. One particular mission, Pierce discovered a lot of unorthodox movements and stationing of personnel and flag officers. She intercepted a transmission that was relayed to Anderson on a secure channel which provided details in regards to the Theurgy’s whereabouts and their proof of Starfleet Command’s infiltration.

With Pierce’s new appearance, she was able to create ways of infiltrating compounds that as a male, she’d been unable to pursue. She had discovered on one particular data gathering assignment that the Thaleron bombs were not merely isolated attacks, but an orchestrated chess game which made each faction a pawn that would eliminate each other. She determined that this would allow the infested an easier route to taking over the galaxy. Slowly over the past year, Pierce formed a friendship with Anderson and other officers on the Starbase but yearned for something more hands-on and in the field again over being on a Starbase.

Rumblings of a coup in the Klingon Empire took place to steal the seat of and overthrow Chancellor Martok. Pierce transmitted the data on a secure channel up the chain to Admiral Anderson that he’d caught subspace chatter of a bomb going off in the Spearhead Lounge Bomb on the USS Theurgy, as well as other isolated incidents that seemed to not be connected but were in her opinion a multiple front distraction to keep each team from succeeding.

Anderson tasked Pierce with the mission of discovering who in the Klingon Empire wanted to overthrow Chancellor Martok as well as discover who was to blame for the bombing on the Theurgy. Anderson decided that with Pierce’s background and need for something dangerous, that she should be assigned to a mission worthy of her talents. With the Theurgy lacking in available crew, he assigned Pierce to the vessel in the hope that she could help the ship's Intelligence Department determine the plotted machinations behind these acts of destruction. He also wanted her to help the crew coordinate with him more frequently to solve the issue of Starfleet’s infiltration.

Pierce was sent to Qo’nos on board the Daqchov to rendezvous with the Theurgy as they were attacked and left adrift near a star. The Away Team with Lt. Izavid, Lt. Lance, and Lt. Veradin, arrived at the Daqchov who managed to retrieve Pierce and the remaining Klingon officers. However, she was not too forthcoming with the Klingons or the crew. The crew was suspicious of her, as she awaited her eventual arrival to the Theurgy as she spoke with her new department commanding officer and joined in their fight.


Personality Profile

Pierce was a highly intelligent, tactically minded intelligence officer. She learned surprisingly quick how to conclude on particular situations, she can be slightly arrogant. Due to her perceived intelligence, and knowledge of the past, she held a fierce distrust of Klingons due to the time period she came from. With her newfound appearance, she has used it to her advantage. While she used to be a ladies’ man, it's left her with a conundrum of re-evaluating her personal interests due to her present condition.

While she was originally male, it has created a situation where she has had to deal with learning the ins and outs of not only the 24th Century but being female now. With knowing things of the past that could help in modern-day, and the frustration she has with her current situation, she has had to just come to terms with it. Overcome with the loss of her era, her old body, and the state of the once-proud Starfleet in this era, she has adopted a mission-first attitude. Everyone she knew being dead now has left her a loner of sorts but trust in the structure of Command and camaraderie.

Due to her time period, and before Kirk's epic standoff at Camp Khitomer, Pierce has a difficult time trusting and wanted to be even near Klingons because of the events that landed her in the 24th Century. She would essentially be suspicious of any interactions with the Klingons despite some good workings with them. Not trusting the Klingons leads her to investigate them more thoroughly whenever they're part of the strategy or mission at hand.

Physical Profile

After Pierce gained her female form, she has a decidedly beautiful body from the accident. She has flowing red hair and a strong athletic build bordering on model-like. She has a remarkable bust at 34E, and a swimsuit body to die for. Pierce’s situation allowed her to dress up, and play multiple parts in espionage missions due to her good looks and sultry displays. Her voice was sexy and slightly southern in tone. She has no tattoos or body piercings.

Special Notes (Optional)

Although capable of Commanding a Starship, she prefers to follow in the steps of Spock and Riker in learning as much as possible with capable leaders, hence either being sidestepped for command opportunities or not accepting them unless as a temporary status. Her status of being from the 23rd Century would be either shrouded in secrecy per Anderson or due to herself not wanting it disclosed unless to a trusted friend. Her records of events have been sealed up and fabricated for recent events for the official record.

Also due to her recent change, she tends to inadvertently watch her figure more and eat more of a plant-based meal plan. Although she is also more than capable of devouring a nice steak dinner on occasion too.
