Character Draft Awaiting Approval

Lauren Elizabeth Pierce was a flight pilot who served in Starfleet during the Dominion War and was a P.O.W. lost to the fleet from 2375 until the end of the war. Shortly thereafter she left Starfleet to deal with the trauma until she heard Tessa was aboard the renegade USS Theurgy. Since then, she has rejoined Starfleet, joined the Theurgy crew in the opposition against the parasites that compromised Starfleet Command at the end of the 24th century.

Biography

Lauren was born on Mars, with her family who was starkly against a Starfleet career due to her Grandfather's mysterious disappearance in the late 23rd Century. Since then Lauren has been enamored by the stars. She strived for the thrill and fun having heard the adventures that await by having a career in Starfleet. She grew up well off but was always getting into some sort of trouble. Not due to wanting to be a problem but because she wanted to have fun and experience what the universe had to offer her.

She went to high school as most teenagers did and when able to, she immediately joined Starfleet with the goal of serving a long and illustrious career despite her parents' objections. Never having learned to fly a Valkyrie, she excelled at the smaller and larger ships having served occasionally on night shift on the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E. Lauren loved the thrill of speed. She wanted to learn to fly smaller crafts, and so in that ambition, she enrolled later into Tactical Conn Academy but unfortunately never managed to finish.

After her arrival at MIMAS Station for training, she met Cadet Tessa May Lance who reluctantly joined Lauren's adventure to gather intel on the Breen vessels in the Sol System. It was during this mission that the two were caught off-guard by the Breen. With Tessa being terrified, it wasn't until Lauren encountered more than she had expected and appeared to be blown into space dust but not before she transmitted the intel to Tessa to return to Command with.

Pierce was declared MIA and it was unknown at the time that the Breen had captured her before destroying her vessel. Since that time, she was a prisoner of war during the Dominion War until its conclusion and was treated in the harshest of circumstances. When the peace treaty was signed on Bajor, the Breen Confederacy released all of their POW's to the Federation. Her encampment however was one of the final ones to be released and the Thot in charge of their camp was a sadistic bastard who thrived on brutal means of torture. Not only was she was assaulted physically with beatings to the point of breaking her for her involvement with their mission in the Sol System, but they removed her right hand for punishment.

After her rescue following those events, Lauren resigned her commission to deal with the physical and mental trauma as she sought to recover and become rehabilitated from what she'd endured at that time. Although her body healed with scarring on her waist, and Starfleet fabricating her a cybernetic hand, her mind was still dealing with the trauma of being under their rule. As she'd traversed to Earth for the time of counseling, she tried to live as normal a life as she could without Starfleet.

It wasn't until early in the year of 2381 that she decided to re-enlist. Lauren was placed at Starbase 82 which at the time functioned as a subspace relay for comms traffic to Starbase 84. She was on comm log clean-up duties late into the night shift, and picked up a specific transmission between the Captain of the Endeavour and Ian Hawthorne, the CO of Starbase 84 shortly before it was attacked. She discovered a priority communication from Captain Amasov stating they were attacked by the Borg and called for backup which was promptly read but ignored by Captain Hawthorne for whatever reason. Questions rose up as to why the Endeavor wasn't responded to and discovered that several surviving officers made their way to the USS Theurgy.

Lauren also discovered that her old friend Tessa May Lance was aboard the now supposedly renegade ship, the USS Theurgy which caused her to dig more looking into Tessa's disappearance. Her need to make a difference in helping out the one friend she'd made prior to her capture drove her to find out how she could get involved. Still only a Cadet, she hadn't been officially promoted to Ensign following her capture despite having graduated Starfleet Academy but not Tactical CONN Academy.

Anderson caught on to Lauren as she was about to take the transmission to her superior officers yet again on Starbase 82. He effectively saved her life, since the infested attempted to suppress any knowledge about there ever having been an attempted Borg invasion. If he'd let her pass on the knowledge that the USS Endeavour was attacked by a Borg cube, she'd be done for. So, he decided to contact her from Earth via a heavily encrypted transmission and explained the truth about the USS Theurgy and what she's just got herself involved in.

In order to preserve the brave woman, Admiral Anderson transferred Cadet Pierce to the Theurgy Anderson field promoted Lauren to an Ensign to serve aboard the Theurgy as another CONN officer. Realizing that although she had little field experience aside from the MIMAS Station encounter, and helming the USS Enterprise-E, she was am unfortunate almost casualty for the information she had uncovered about Starbase 84 and simply that Captain Ian Hawthorne never tried to save the Endeavour. Nor were there any notice or alert about the Borg being present in Federation space, and certainly no ships leaving Starbase 84 in response to the distress call. Lauren simply learned too much and was going to get herself killed unless Anderson had saved her, and give her a chance to make a difference.

Anderson assigned her to join the other Starfleet officers aboard the IKS Kajunpak't to replenish the ranks of the lost officers on the Theurgy. Although she was a lowly Ensign, she was capable of helping in other ways despite her brash nature. It was there that she joined the crew in their fight.

Personality Profile

Lauren Pierce was a curious yet intelligent but stubborn individual much like her ancestor, however, she was more bull-headed when faced with an issue she believed she had the correct answer for. She was known to be slightly cocky in various situations. She is perky, energetic, and conflicted like her friend Tessa, however, she is brash a little more than she should be. The combination of these elements can cause her to get into trouble when she's not thinking but acting on her emotional state. She can be hot-headed but if the right individual talks her down she can come back to normal.

She suffers from Cleithrophobia or the phobia of being captured since being under the foot of the Breen for so long. She's also overloaded with hubris that often gets her into trouble. Her back shows some of this as she's been scarred for her disobedience while in the Breen prison camps. Her misplaced trust, excessive curiosity, pride, and lack of self-control are why she's in this predicament at this point in time and why she went missing during the MIMAS Station mission during the Dominion War. She has however grown spiteful of the Breen and slightly a bit of a troublemaker albeit not intentionally since coming home.

Upon her arrival, she discovered her ancestor Alana Pierce was brought aboard. She looked forward to getting to know her ancestor and learn about the role he/she played in the Starfleet of old. Another surprise for her was finding out her old friend from MIMAS Station, Tessa May Lance was aboard and a Valkyrie pilot. She wanted to make a difference and rejoin Starfleet being a misfit herself. Especially being despite her getting Tessa intel for the War, she broke a lot of regulations and so the safest place was to be part of the Theurgy's crew. She felt the need to prove herself to the badge and that she was something more than her circumstances.

Physical Profile

Like her ancestor, this Pierce was a beautiful red-headed woman sporting a slim, busty frame, and was strong from her time as a prisoner of war. She was able to hold her own against adversaries and unfortunately sports a scar on her waist from being thrashed for disobeying orders at the hands of the Breen. She has a cybernetic hand on her right side which allows her to move much faster and punch harder than one would probably expect. Like other women of Mars, she sports a large bust which led Starfleet to wonder what's in the water there. Her back showed scarring as she'd been attacked for her disobedience while in the Breen prison camps.
