Theseum[/color][/H1][/center] [center]"I'm a doctor! Oh. Medical, right. No I do flowers."[/center] [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Name:[/color][/b] Zoe Juniper Theseum [b][color=f7941d]Age[/color][/b]: 28 [b][color=f7941d]Gender Identity:[/color][/b] Female [b][color=f7941d]Married/ Unmarried:[/color][/b] Unmarried [b][color=f7941d]Occupation[/color][/b]: Ship Botanist; Head of exploratory study. [b][color=f7941d]Place of Residence:[/color][/b] The Thucydides (Current), Orbital Terra-forming Colony (Arcturus Region) "Seed Pod" [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Appearance:[/color][/b] Zoe is a person who could be described as mousy at a glance. She has a thin and relatively short build that is far from imposing, along with features that tell the story of a curious but careful person. Her eyes are big and round, her nose small and her lips thin. She has a spray of freckles across her nose, and a head of long unkempt rusty hair. She is pale and often a little harried in appearance; her big spectacles giving her a slight "mad scientist" tint. Her slender hands are pock-marked with faint thin scars; a map of many little accidents. More fresh cuts across her figure are covered with brightly colored band-aids. Often she is wearing clothes that are warm and comfortable, or that are appropriate for her line of work. Dirt stained and smelling of the earth. [hr] [b][color=f7941d]History:[/color][/b] Growing up on a colony off of earth, has given Zoe some different measures of whats valuable. Around her people like botanists or civil engineers were the heroes of the people. While humanity has passed the harrowing first days of living off their home planet, the reaches of space are not meant to accommodate them. Life is good there of course, as it is across all of humanity, but the giants who's shoulders it is built from, are the people she's idolized her whole life. With a near single-minded fervor she managed to make it through school with only one year longer than planned. She was able to scoop up work quickly in continuing the Terra-forming process in the nearing planets frontier-land. Despite the accident that would occur during it, it would not deter her from what she wanted to do. However what she really took away from the experience was how much work she was able to do from her desk regardless. As she recovered from her cybernetic surgery, she had a real chance to evaluate how her time was spent, and what she wanted to do with it. She decided that being behind a desk all day was terribly boring. The perfect mix of exploration and maintaining something familiar would come when offered a position on a short-circuit transport vessel; carrying germination samples and new crop-types to a planet establishing colonies across it's moons. When the trip was over, she was thirsting for more, and given a good word by her employer. This is how she would get the chance to work on a large class ship. [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Cybernetic/ Genetic Enhancements:[/color][/b] After an accident during a preliminary outing during her studies in exploratory Floriculture, she lost function in her legs, due to becoming trapped under a boulder for some time. By the time she was rescued and transported to a proper medical facility, reclamation of her legs was not an option. Due to this she has been fitted with cybernetic legs that begin around the thigh area. The current models she use are sturdy and meant for work; they allow for ease of movement and have some features one might call convenient for exploring alien terrain. One such feature being extensive shock absorbers; allowing for her to fall from great heights, if she can land on her feet. She also has a neural link chip in her brain, and matching implants in her fingers to help her interface with applicable electronics. As for genetic enhancements, her parents opted to gear her for harsher scenarios, as they were workers in the planet-side Terra-forming project. Her eyes are made to see in the dark easier, and are therefore reflective/have a glow to them. She also has an automatically adjusting metabolism that makes it easier for her to retain the right amount of fat, even when times are more lean. A feature that has not seen much use, in these idyllic times. [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Skills:[/color][/b] With a doctorate in botany with a focus on floriculture, spermology and pomology (study of flowers, seeds and fruit-bearing plants) she is well suited for exploratory research as well as Terra-forming. She has an almanac of constantly updating information on many types of plants galaxy-wide. Her interests and skills have made her a good choice for scavenging. Zoe has taken a very strong shining to the false pollinator method of maintaining a small Eco-system. This has lead to her love and specialized use of "Bee Drones" that assist in her upkeep of the onboard greenrooms and simulated green-areas. With the neural link she has with the drones, she's able to set them on a laundry list of automated processes. She can also apply live control, for more specific uses. Such as moving heavier objects and reaching places she can't herself. Or doing one action many times over in one moment (such as watering flowers and so on) Aside from her schooling Zoe has also practised in general survival skills and classic crafts such as wood-whittling and trap making. This has largely been a hobby but whenever Zoe has had the chance to unwind, it's often been camping. In her eyes it's like doing the part of the job she loves with 99% less possible danger. Finally Zoe has an extremely strong work ethic/sense of pride. She feels she NEEDS to be useful, and will therefore apply herself wholly to a task given to her. She isn't always good at the things she needs to get done, but she will absolutely put the hours in to become of use. -- The contrast or pair with some of her weaknesses. Where she is good at taking in new pieces of information and committing them to memory, she can have trouble getting lost in that minutia, and will lose focus of the greater picture. When she thinks of something as the truth, it can be hard to convince her otherwise. Unless you have undeniable evidence she'll often stick to her preconceived notions; especially when they were shown to her by one she trusts. While Zoe has practice in exploratory research and fending for herself, she is often used to working in that way; alone. It's not that she isn't a team player, but when it comes down to it she can becomes frustrated matching herself to the pace of others. She is fairly patient, but will get competitive or disheartened when she can't meld well with a team. Therefore she prefers to defer to the role she is given, or self govern completely. She isn't the leader type, and prefers to put her head down and get to work. Her pride and need to please can lead to her putting her energy and time in the wrong place, or even going too far. Part of her sense of self worth is tied to the work she can do, which can lead to her becoming hurt or otherwise disheartened when she isn't meeting her own esoteric criteria. [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Reason for joining the crew of the Thucydides:[/color][/b] Exploratory botany was her second option after aiding in the Terra-forming process. Her parents urged for her to explore her options, and seeing the stars seemed like a fantastic experience. She's been onboard for some time now, and thinks of it as home. [hr] [b][color=f7941d]Miscellaneous Facts:[/color][/b] She isn't a tech wizard by any means, but she knows enough about her Bee-Bots to maintain them well enough. She has a lot of general interests in the natural world, having a gem collection and a deep love of birds and similar creatures. Despite this she isn't very good of taking care of anything alive aside from plants. She jokes that if technology didn't make things as convenient as they are now, she would have never made it through university alive. She has a rapturous love of pickles. Has startled a few people with her glowing eyes by eating from the jar in the middle of the night. [/hider]
