SS Rainbow's End

From Star Trek: Theurgy Wiki

The SS Rainbow's End was a civilian cargo freighter that was privately owned during the 24th century. It was an older civilian ship manned almost entirely by descendants of the early "space boomers" that made up a portion of humanity's spacefaring population in the 22nd century. Many of them could trace their genealogy across the years all the way back to crewmembers on Cargo Services ships and the Rainbow's End itself was a former Merchant Marine ship before it was retired from that service and rebuilt to more modern standards in the 2330’s.

Liliana Walton was born aboard the SS Rainbow's End in 2342. Her parents both worked as part of the ship's maintenance crew and Lily herself found herself assisting them in keeping the ship running smoothly. Her small size as a child allowed her more freedom of movement, which she frequently exploited along with the other children onboard for both play and work. Along with absorbing knowledge from her parents, her experiences in the guts of the ship gave her a deep respect for both perils and requirements of a life lived in space like the other spacers she spent her life with.

In 2359, during a supply run to a remote Federation outpost Liliana Walton was inspired by a young Starfleet officer and shuttle pilot to enlist in Starfleet.
