Well, I would love to post, but I'm still not sure what Ensign Kenek's "job" will be on the Space Station Polaris. Any suggestions? If the only jobs we can conjure up for her would require a promotion, I've already got the "why is she getting such a quick promotion?" problem solved to write into my first post, in a way that I think is true to the character, but I'm still at a loss for what she should do. I'm officially asking for help here, folks! I really don't want to get a new character, I'm pretty set on keeping Kenek. So, help! Hm.. a Zeph's playing a civilian.. that's great! I think we could definitely use some non-Starfleet personnel to liven things up a bit. Anyway, if you have ideas, don't be shy!

Ana, your question got me thinking about Conn officers. It seems like every conn officer either did something else or left the job after a short time…
Miles O’Brien – Started as Conn, then went to Transporter Chief, then Chief Engineer on DS9 Geordi LaForge – Went from Conn to Chief Engineer Wesley Crusher – Often seen at the Conn, but also had science and engineering responsibilities Ro Laren – Was conn officer for like three episodes then became a Federation spy Tom Paris – Part-time conn officer, part-time nurse Dax – Conn officer on the Defiant and Science officer on DS9
Then there were other characters who took the helm from time to time like Uhura, Troi, Nog…and I’m sure I forgot some.
Now, let’s see…I know there’s a point in here somewhere. Ah! My point is the sky is the limit for Alia. There was only one Trek character, Sulu, who made a career out of it before he came a captain.
If I were you, I’d follow your fellow Trill’s path and go with Chief Science Officer. Peter did such a great job with Brandt, that I’d like to see a good writer take his place.

^^^Thanks, Captain! I guess I'll have to brush up on my technobabble.. But one thing.. if we run into any ship missions, I'd like to put Kenek at the helm.. I guess I've got her engraved in my mind as a pilot at heart And of course I'm sure she'll be *fascinated* by Captain Kelly's new toy..

This is going to be so great. Great to have you onboard too Ana - it wouldn't be the same without you. Sorry for not posting yet, I've got some ideas from Zack's transition onto Polaris. Wish me luck - the play i wrote and directed debuts tonight

I know I haven't posted yet, but I've been busy with school. I only have a week left though, so after that, I'll be free to post and I'll post so much you'll probably all get tired of seeing me

YAAAAYYYYYY!!!!
Just made my first post - a send off to the Archer, and Zack's farewell to Jeferries. But i just realised that I typed Captain Archer instead of jefferies - too much Enterprise on the brain.
I also have some NPC's in mind. Will send bios soon.

^^Cool, Alex! I can't wait to read your latest post.. I'm sure it will be fantastic as usual I am also really looking forward to hearing from some of our new characters.. Zeph, I'm looking in your direction! I'm dying to know what kind of civillian you're going to be!

Thanx Ana. I don't know, I felt a little rusty - I had to get back into Zack's mindset. I hope it was ok. Just wanted to wrap up Zack's role on the Archer and summarise what's happened to him so far, and his relationship wityh Rhai. I'm with you too Ana on finding out about the other characters. Cant wait.... Oh!..don't expect Zack to be pleased about your promotion Ana...

^ Thanks! Hope our characters have the opportunity to work together. We newly promoted need to stick together.
