Basically we're going to go through life on a starship, and the crew is going to have various missions to beam down to an alien planet and explore it or take various orders from Starfleet to do a wide range of activities. Crew members may have to beam down to a planet inhabited by friendly aliens who can time travel or they may have to deal with a transporter malfunction that leads them to a parallel universe. The crew is going to have to come up with ways to solve each problem they are faced with in each mission.
Different crew members will go on different missions, but I will try to have everyone be on a mission at least once. As a crew member, you can be apart of one of three divisions with a specialty in something.
Divisions
Command - Those in the command division can be found on the bridge of the ship. Their jobs focus on controlling various aspects of the ship. The command uniform is a light yellow bodysuit with a large black 'C' on the left breast of the uniform and black boots. The only exception is the captain, who wears a silver and black bodysuit with black boots.
Education - Those in the education division can be found almost everywhere on the ship. Their jobs focus on research specific to their area of study, with the exception of doctors and nurses who also must tend to patients on the ship. The education uniform is a blue bodysuit with a large black 'E' on the left breast of the uniform and black boots.
Operations - Those in the operations division can be found almost everywhere on the ship. Their jobs focus on either repairing or running the ship or protecting the beings on it. The operations uniform is a red bodysuit with a large black 'O' on the left breast of the uniform and black boots.

Master ListCaptain Xeria of the SS Xerxes - @zeno
Name: Xeria, Captain Xeria of the SS Xerxes to the crew. Gender: Genderless, but slightly feminine Age: 34 Species: Genetically engineered human Position: Captain Appearance: Personality: Only speaks when necessary and is short and precise with sentences. Prefers not to make unnecessary contact with others outside of work. Great at analyzing and figuring out things and is quite intelligent. Pushes crew past their limits and is willing to gamble if it means the crew will be saved. Strengths: Good leader, intelligent, great crew Weaknesses: Sometimes is too demanding, does not see the benefit in emotion, antisocial Historical Background: Was genetically engineered as one of the first 'perfect' humans that were genetically, anatomically, and physically correct and genderless. Xeria has no known family at the moment and grew up without parents. Educational Background: Did above average in school and decided to go to the Academy in hopes of eventually commanding a starship. Other: I'm going to use she/her when referring to Xeria since she is slightly feminine even though she's genderless. Helmsman Armistice "Armie" Rae - midnaName: Armistice "Armie" Rae Gender: Female Age: 21 Species: Human Position: Helmsman Appearance: Personality: Armie does things before she thinks, and though her recklessness may have caused her some issues in the past, her ability to trust her gut makes her often unstoppable and always different than most of her former classmates. She's intelligent, and when she feels like it, she'll be one of the smartest women you'll ever meet--as well as one of the least emotional. She lives in the now, and believes that though she's not the best at making friends it's important to know the others on the crew. Armie also rarely sleeps, preferring to make progress on whatever she's doing instead of resting. Strengths: Smart, flexible, logical Weaknesses: Not charming, unemotional, reckless, arrogant Historical Background: Her parents sent her to all the best schools until she was fifteen, when she became an emancipated minor. Educational Background: She went to a flurry of different, all very good schools, until she turned fifteen, became an emancipated minor, and received a scholarship to the Academy, in hopes of being on a starship one day. She majored in Communications and received A's in everything except Economics which was a high B. Other: N/A First Officer Matsi Park - @kuroha Name: Matsi Park
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Species: Alien
Position: First Officer
Appearance: Pink hair, brown eyes, pale skin, average height and weight.
Personality: Matsi is brave and sweet
Strengths: Brave, strong, compassionate
Weaknesses: Acts on impulse, emotional
Historical Background: Matsi’s alien family has gone extinct as they tried to rebel against the other aliens for a good cause, she is now the only survivor as she was sent to Earth before the massacre.
Educational Background: Matsi went to school in Earth, at first she struggled in the academy but as time went by she was at the top of her class. Majored in command division. Decided to join The Academy to find peace for her family.
Other: None at the moment Navigator Enna Prem - @jediunicorn Name: Enna Prem
Gender: Most definitely female.
Age: 27
Species: Human
Position: Navigator
Appearance: Enna has straight, black, shoulder length hair with a fringe, a pale, heart shaped face and rather dull grey eyes. She is rather tall, and quite skinny. Enna is almost pretty - almost, but not quite. Whenever she is angry about something, her veins and lips turn black because of the Remnant possessing her (more on that later.)
Personality: Before she was possessed by the Remnant, Enna was a kind, sweet girl. She was friendly and the sort of person that would help old ladies cross the road. Unfortunately, when a Remnant found her one night and decided to make itself at home, all that changed. Enna is rude, sarcastic and on the surface, doesn't look like she cares about anyone, but actually does. Sometimes, people can get through the Remnant and bring out the real Enna, the one the got locked up years ago and hardly ever sees the light of day.
Strengths: Enna is intelligent, quick-thinking and doesn't let anything get on her way.
Weaknesses: Enna is extremely stubborn, asocial and rude.
Historical Background: For this to make any sense whatsoever, I need to explain what Remnant is. A Remnant looks a black, smudgy cloud, but it's much, much worse than just a cloud. Once released, it bolts down the nearest person's throat. It then latches onto their soul, and darkens it.If it is not removed within four days, it stays there forever, it will not leave the person's soul. Not many people remember seeing them, because once you are possessed by one, you forgot the last twenty four hours. No one knows where they came from, but everyone hopes that they'll go back there. Some people get extremely violent when possessed by one. Others go insane. Enna, however, was mentally strong enough to push the urge to go on an epic killing spree down deep inside her. Enna's parents were away for a week when she was seventeen. After eating her dinner, Enna opened the window to view the stars which she had always enjoyed looking at. But had she no sooner opened the window then a Remnant came flying in and bolted down her throat, found her soul and latched itself on to her it. By the time her parents came back, it was already too late.
Enna is an only child, but had always longed for a younger sibling.
Educational Background: She went to a posh all-girls school, the same one her mother and her mother before her went to. She had outstanding grades and excelled in every almost every subject.
Other: She's bisexual. Education DivisionScience Officer Romanadvoratrelundar - RomanadvoratrelundarName: Romanadvoratrelundar, but goes by Romana Gender: Female Age: 125 Species: Thalor, a species practically identical to humans in appearance, but generally more intelligent and perceptive. They are highly independent from one another, most leaving their families at the age of fifteen and living the rest of their lives in near-seclusion, which means they are often stubborn. Position: Science Officer Appearance: Personality: She is eccentric and usually warm towards others, but also loves correcting others and being right. She's somewhat arrogant but not egotistical. She likes to provide comments even when her opinion is not wanted, and ignores orders if she thinks she knows better. Strengths: Intellegence, good physical endurance. Weaknesses: She's stubborn and sometimes ignores orders. She also hates being wrong, and she can get caught up in trying to prove herself right or correct whatever she got wrong. Historical Background: Family is not very important to the Thalor, and Romana has not seen them in over a century. She spent most of her life researching sciences on her home planet before enrolling in The Academy. Educational Background: Like all Thalor, Romana was homeschooled. She generally did well, but was exceptional in sciences. After leaving home, she spent her days further studying science independently until she applied at The Academy to get even better than she could with her independent studies. She graduated with a major in Astrophysics. Other: She has a strong affection for jelly babies, which she often makes large batches of with the food replicator and keeps with her in a paper bag. Head Security Officer Farlon Wolf - DarkLordZantName: Farlon Wolf
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Species: Human
Position: Head Security Officer
Appearance: Farlon has front spiked black hair with dark red highlights. His eyes are very dark red. He is tall, and has a average build. He has fair skin.
