Faceclaim:
Personality: Ngigeso always seems off in a world of their own. Sure, your world and their world intersect and they’re probably glad to have you around but there’s a bit of a
Likes: They’re really into survival-horror holos, generally involving made up monsters and an extremely real possibility that you will “die”. Some of their crew are a little disturbed by how intense they like it, but it helps them cope with a universe in which the Borg exist and all sorts of other nightmare things happen.
Ngigeso likes their job, when they’re allowed to do it the way they want to. They’re a nerd who reads technical manuals for fun. The whole process of taking what you know and applying it to something with physical
Dislikes: Ngigeso hates being rushed.
Skills and Abilities: Ngigeso is a prodigy when it comes to warp cores and shields and other technologies that use particle physics. Ask them sometime about string theory and how much it blows their mind. Let the science people just talk about the strings, they’ll be down here in engineering making the strings dance for them.
Affiliations: The Federation, Starfleet
Family: Their family isn’t Starfleet, they’re all in academics, but they’re proud of Ngigeso and they talk with them regularly to update them on their latest adventures. They have a bunch of little nieces and nephews who are particularly excited to hear their stories and while Ngigeso doesn’t want kids of their own, they’re pretty good with kids they don’t have to take care of full time and their brother appreciates it.
Associates:
Enemies: Doesn’t want enemies. Like the Klingons are getting aggro and starting wars but have the Klingons ever considered just not doing that and being pals instead? They’ll shoot a bitch if they have to to save lives but why can’t we all get along instead?
Sometimes they’ll get paranoid and think Section 31 thinks they know too much and are after them but they know an entirely acceptable amount about Section 31 so they’re not on the list.
Their past: Ngigeso hails from a Saurian colony that they can’t take any of their alien friends to without breathers because of its unusual atmospheric conditions making it suitable only for Saurians. Thus while growing up they didn’t meet a lot of people outside their species but they were always excited to learn more about them from the freighter captains who came in for their
Current situation: Lieutenant Ngigeso is having a good time in Starfleet, Academy class of 24. They have been stationed as chief engineer aboard the U.S.S. Entrepreneur for a few years and it’s been
Their future?:
Alternate Universes: Mirror Universe Ngigeso barely communicates with anyone and is selectively mute because the Terran Empire is not good about neurodivergent people except for how they can be used, and Ngigeso is one of the useful autistic people so they just retreat into their spot in engineering and do their job. Or else.
