Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Melody considers herself to be a very fortunate person. While all other girls at a young age were dreaming of being a princess and playing in fantasy land with ponies and such, Melody was dreaming of running around exploring the galaxy. She is an easy going person that knows how to have a good time and pretty much can get along with anyone. She enjoys meeting new people and visiting new places. But she is also a very dedicated Starfleet officer that plans on staying in Starfleet for rest of her life. She is in it for the long run. She is somewhat of a tomboy that enjoys getting her hands dirty and diving in the middle of the problem. However, over the years she has started to develop a more feminine side. Melody is an intelligent woman that knows what she wants and goes after it. She has set goals in her life and plans on meeting them all. Not only if she book smart and can get her hands dirty she is also very handy in hand to hand combat. Melody is a strong willed person that believes that she can do anything once she puts her mind to it. At times she can be stubborn but she also isn’t stupid and knows when its time to give up. She hates to lose but sometimes you need to lose a battle in order to win the war. |

| Strengths & Weaknesses | Melody’s dedication is one of her key strengths. She believes she can do anything once she puts her mind to it. She has the intelligence to go with her dedication which makes her a very valuable asset. She possesses leadership ability even if she is afraid of public speaking. She can talk just fine in a small group of people but once all the eyes in the room are on her she gets nervous. | |
| Ambitions | Melody is a career Starfleet officer with many things that she would like to accomplish. She would like to become Captain of a medical ship by the time she is 40 and receive her own vessel. She wants to make contact with as many species as possible and learn about them. She also wants to write a book or two about her travels and different adventures that she lives. At some point in time she would consider starting a family but that isn’t high on her priority list at the moment. | |
| Hobbies & Interests | Melody is a strong believer that you need to try everything at least once in the life. It is because of this that there are far too many things that she has interest in and enjoys doing. One bad thing is that she never has enough time to do everything she would like to do. But when she does have a few moments here and there she enjoys playing sports anywhere from softball to soccer and volleyball. She is also a very strong swimmer and a rock climber. She is also an outgoing person. She is a bit of a social bird that likes to talk to new people and learn their story. She can sometimes get a bit out of hand once she has had a few drinks so doesn’t drink as often. |
| Personal History | Melody was born on Earth; however her stay on the plane wasn’t very long. Both of her parents were Starfleet officers. Her father Daniel was a Lieutenant serving aboard the USS Thistle as an engineering officer. Her mother Delyth was a medicsl officer serving aboard the same vessel as her father. Melody was born into a family of Starfleet officers and since she was a little girl she knew that she was going to be one as well when she grew up. She wasn’t sure of what exactly she wanted to do but she knew she was going to be in Starfleet. As a young girl her parents start to teach her about different things both in the engineering field and also in the medical field hoping that it would help her out down the line when she decided on what she wanted to do. When Melody was 13 years of age her parents transferred closer to Earth and began working on the Jupiter Science Station, but that only lasted for two years before her parents were needed on a ship. Melody moved to Earth to live with her cousins who she barely knew. It was hard for her at first so she pushed herself into her books and began reading anything she can get her hands on. It was mostly medical manuals that she had received from her mom, and tech manuals from her dad. Eventually her parents wanted her to go with them on a ship again but she refused and stayed on Earth to finish her last year of high school. Right after high school she enlisted in the Starfleet Academy Medical Programme. She graduated with honours and began serving aboard various vessels, making a name for herself as one of the best medical officers in the quadrant. |
