Tessa May Lance was a fighter pilot who served aboard the USS Theurgy during the battles against the corrupted Starfleet Command in the late 24th century.
Biography
Tessa May Lance had a wonderful childhood with all of the benefits that the United Federation of Planets could give her. Cheerleader, homecoming queen, she was one of the ‘popular girls.’ She had no emotional scars growing up; nobody molested her as a child. She had never experienced poverty, neglect, cruelty, or intolerance. Life was good.
She was shaken out of her comfortable little world by the Dominion War. She had enrolled in Starfleet to fly starships and explore strange new worlds but Starfleet needed warriors so that’s what she trained for. Thankfully a four year course lasted longer than a two year war and she was spared from getting into any major engagements. She was able to benefit from Starfleet’s experience on the front lines. After serving aboard the USS James Kirk for a year, she was handpicked to fly the Valkyrie Mark III prototype. Her commanding officer in charge of the Valkyrie Mark III program, Lieutenant Commander Taylor Lucas, recommended her for a promotion to Lieutenant Junior Grade when her first tour with the Lone Wolves Squadron ended.
Tessa began her second tour on Theurgy with a promotion and a buoyant feeling, optimistic about a fresh start on a fresh ship, but that did not last long. With her ship and crew's flight from Starfleet, Tessa lost all of the people she cared about. All her friends and loved ones, who previously had been a subspace channel away, were cut off. Trapped in a tiny room whose walls were made of loneliness, she all but threw herself at the infected crewmates during the Niga outbreak. The rest is still a blur. In the aftermath she found her surroundings changing and her pool of potential friends shrinking. During the Ishtar Incident (or at least her temporally-displaced memories thereof) she recalls aggressively taking on two men and one woman, and coming to the conclusion that all gods are false, pretenders, and her destiny is her own to forge, for better or worse. Then Calamity struck—literally.
Harbinger of Treachery
A ship from the future calling itself the Calamity attacked the carrier with superior weaponry twenty years in advance of the Theurgy’s. When the Harbinger contacted the Theurgy and arranged for a sharing of information and personnel Tessa Lance noticed the brutal nature of the Harbinger’s Dor'GhItlh Squardon. When the Harbinger’s commanding officer Comodore Delcan Vasser attempted a coup against the Theurgy Tessa fled the Fighter Assault Bay with the deck crew and a fellow pilot by going through the Jeffries Tubes. She was horrified to see one of her fellow pilots shoot another down and had difficulty trusting Lt. Commander Wenn Cinn when he took command of the effort to take the ship back. She later participated in the retaking of the bridge and was back in the cockpit in time for the final battle with the Calamity.
Personality
As of 2381, Tessa had no physical scars, because they were all mental and psychological. The betrayal of Starfleet and becoming a fugitive shattered Tessa’s safe little world and took her sense of identity with it. She was once a cheerful optimistic patriot but after going on the run she didn’t know what to believe or who to trust. The threads are beginning to fray as she finds herself regressing into a childish mindset in order to cope.
Physical Profile
In 2381 Tessa May Lance was pleasant to look at, with high cheekbones, silky hair, and a figure that would make a Renaissance sculptor drop his chisel. She had no scars to speak of, although she did have a birthmark in a rather intimate spot.
