Lara is a highly creative individual with a sharp and inquisitive mind. She has a passion for puzzles and problem-solving, and enjoys nothing more than using her intellect to uncover solutions to even the most complex conundrums. Her ability to see patterns and connections where others might not has made her a formidable competitor in all kinds of mental challenges, and she takes great pride in her ability to think outside the box.

Despite her many talents, Lily can be quite single-minded at times, sometimes to the point of being seen as stubborn. When she sets her mind to something, she becomes completely absorbed in it and will stop at nothing to see it through to the end. This intensity and focus have served her well in her pursuits, but it can also make her difficult to work with for those who don't share her level of dedication. Despite this tendency towards single-mindedness, Lily is a warm and compassionate person at heart. She has a great sense of humor, and her quick wit and clever wordplay make her a hit with friends and family. Her love of puzzles and problem-solving extends to all areas of her life, and she's always eager to take on a new challenge, no matter how difficult. Despite her knack of puzzles, she likes to wind down after a week of work with her cat and a good cup of coffee. Lara is mostly seen wearing a safety version of the Solas Tempus Uniform fitted for construction rather than standard-issue, even to meetings.

Special Equipment

  • Custom-made set of tools
  • A classic swiss army knife

Background

Early Life and Career

Lara was born in rural bavaria on Earth in 2343.

In 2359, by the age of 16, Lara joined Solas Tempus as an Ensign, where she attended Engineering School.

By the age of 25, she finished her PhD in Fusion Reactor Design and promptly joined the Construction and Maintenance Command (CONCOM) of Solas Tempus' Green Team.

USS Memory and USS Determination

Her first assignment included the USS Memory and the USS Determination, where she was tasked with Maintenance of the ship's systems. During her assignment, she managed to gain further insight into the workings of the Transporter tech, which she had to apply in a clash the Tholian Assembly: The USS Determination received a distress call from a remote sector of space, where a scientific research vessel has gone missing. When they arrived at the location, they found that the Tholian Assembly had declared the area to be their territory and had been guarding it fiercely. The Tholians demanded that the crew leave immediately, but the captain was determined to find out what happened to the missing research vessel and its crew. Later, they discover that the research vessel actually belonged to Vident Obscura, and it had stumbled upon a mysterious and powerful artifact the Tholians wanted to keep. The captain of the USS Determination decided to steal the artifact and sent out an away team to sneak into the Tholian base and retrieve the artifact. As their original escape plan failed, they had to be pulled out with a transporter. Lara, despite numerous obstacles, such as shields and an active combat situation, successfully managed to pull out the away team. Due to her effort, she was promptly promoted to Lieutenant Junior Grade.

USS Stellar Flare

After 2 years, she transferred to the USS Stellar Flare, where she working inside a team tasked with general vessel Maintenance. During her team aboard the Stellar Flare, they got orders to disrupt a borg cube in preparation of destroying it. Laura, as a part of the vessel's engineering team, helped modifying a shuttlecraft to avoid detection by the Borg's sensors.

USS Opal Star

The Opal Star was a dedicated vessel of the Reverse Engineering Division, which was tasked with disassembling and analyzing Species 8472 weapon systems aboard an outpost surfaced during a discovery mission. Lara signed with the vessel after she built up her reputation through more missions. In particular, she headed the efforts in regard of the power sources 8472's outpost used.

USS Globetrotter

Having transferred to the USS Globetrotter after a few years of service, in regard of her accomplishments, She was promoted to Chief Engineering Officer at the rank of Lt. Commander. During her service, they received a distress signal from a Xindi ship that has crashlanded on a remote planet. The away-team upon investigating the call soon faced difficulties, because a highly unstable substance was leaking from the wreck and threatened to cause irreparable daamge to the planet and its inhabitants. These circumstances prompted the team to request support, which Lara herself followed and went down planetside. Although the tensions rose and they even needed to stop sabotage from within the Xindi, Lara and the away team managed to contain the substance and avert any danger to the planets ecosystem.

Mission Aftermath

After having finished numerous missions, she finally transferred to Kerman Simon's (the current Leader of Green Team) starship as Executive Officer.

Present

Following Admiral Simon's retirement, she took over command of the Engineering Arm.
