I am Commander James Tyrell. I am the USS Lexington’s XO. I have risen through the ranks of Starfleet rather quickly. I am tall, handsome, confident, but a little closed off. I grew up on the Moon, on New Berlin, but every summer I would live with my grandparents on their horse ranch in the Montana mountains, so I have that rigged cowboy air. The USS Lexington is an Excelsior class starship, NCC-1709-A. This takes place during the Lost Era of Trek, in the late 2390’s. I am a respected member of the crew and there is a new crew change. The old grumpy chief medical officer is retiring. He is old and cantankerous, but well liked and respected. The new Chief Medical officer is Elara Voss, a Betazoid. Tyrell has already decided to not like her as respect to his old friend, but she is captivatingly beautiful. She has dark hair, light skin with just the perfect amount of freckles. Her betazoid senses can see right through me, and I want the story to be a romantic tension, will they, won’t they sort of thing as Tyrell struggles with his feelings over duty and professionalism. They will get in galactic adventures and personal tension throughout the story.
The scene is her coming onboard for the first time with other crew while docked at Starbase 12.
