Syria

Syria was the Chief of Security of the USS Augustus in 2295. Being one of the Caitians in the fleet her unique feline appearance garnered her quite the reputation.

BIOGRAPHY
Syria and her twin sister R’Tira were born to C’Trell and Xenora. Syria was always getting herself and R’Tira into trouble or mischief of some kind or another. She was always a very rambunctious child running around without a care in the world. Despite how often she caused mischief or trouble Syria was protective of those she cared for. Having gotten into more than her fair share of fights to protect her twin sister or her friends and winning more than she lost gave her the confidence to continue to protect people.

Because of this drive to help and protect Syria had gone on to the equivalent to that of an Earth police/military school when she was 16-years-old and was the top of her class. She was offered a position in the police force on Cait in her home town of Efra, but Syria turned it down and applied for Starfleet Academy instead with her parents’ blessings at the age of 19.

It was four years of studying, hard training, and making friends that she planned to keep in touch with. Syria graduated the Academy with several of her colleagues at the top of the class, they were in the middle of celebrating when Syria had gotten her acceptance as an Ensign in the security department of the USS Vengence. This gave Syria more reason to celebrate because it was one of the ships she applied to. Though she would have loved to get onto the Enterprise, but she didn’t think that would work. Syria worked her way from Ensign to Lieutenant (Jg.).

By this time Syria had gotten transfer orders from Starfleet to the USS Drake, for the Assistant Chief position. The Caitian had never thought she would be interested in a leadership role. It wasn’t long though before she found she liked assisting the chief and wanted to see if she could be a department head herself. So, two years after joining the USS Drake, Syria put in for a DH position and was waiting to be accepted on a ship that needed a Chief of Security.
