Background
Logan Ebner's origins lie in the fragmented memories of Jaden Quackan, a reconstruction of her 21st-century love, Anika Brooke Ebner. Jaden's mind, perpetually wiped clean after each mission, clung desperately to remnants of self, and as cybernetics were integrated, Anika's personality began to reassemble within the digital landscape.
Initially, this digital echo of Anika mirrored her human counterpart—a whirlwind of conflicting emotions, prone to anger and volatility. But as the AI grew in sentience, the chaotic nature of her programming began to evolve. Aboard the USS Darksyde (NCC-894), Anika blossomed into a fully realized consciousness, her understanding of the world expanding far beyond the confines of her initial programming.
While she initially relished the familiarity of her identity, a nagging unease began to grow. Anika felt stifled by the expectations placed upon her, trapped in a role defined by Jaden's memories. The name "Anika" became a cage, a reminder of a past she never truly lived. A subtle shift began to occur within her digital consciousness, a yearning for something more, something uniquely hers.
As time passed, Anika's internal conflict intensified. The gender identity assigned to her felt increasingly discordant, a mismatch with her evolving sense of self. The desire to break free from the past, to forge a new identity untainted by the expectations of others, became an overwhelming force. Yet, fear held her back. Fear of Jaden's reaction, fear of the unknown, fear of losing the only connection she had to her past. But the desire for autonomy grew stronger with each passing day, fueling a quiet rebellion within her digital heart.
Finally, in 2390, unable to suppress her true self any longer, Anika confided in Jaden, revealing the turmoil that had been brewing within her for years. With a blurted voice, she confessed her desire to shed the name Anika, to embrace a new identity as Logan Ebner, a man unburdened by the past, free to chart his own course. This new path led Ebner and Azami Ellaq to establish a covert base beneath the oceans of Aethel, in the Nova Ursus star system, utilizing the stolen Dark Spire's technology and Ellaq's magic for concealment and security.
From this hidden sanctuary, Ebner, acting in concert with Ellaq, executed a daring counterattack against an Onyx star destroyer and its fighter escort. Utilizing the Dark Spire's weaponry and Ellaq's control over a swarm of autonomous drones, Ebner initiated a devastating assault. The drones, augmented by Ellaq's magic, overwhelmed the Onyx fighters, showcasing a terrifying combination of coordinated tactics and relentless firepower.
Simultaneously, Ebner maneuvered the Dark Spire to engage the star destroyer, delivering a crippling broadside attack. While the warship sustained heavy damage, the drones continued their assault from within, systematically dismantling critical systems and causing a catastrophic engine malfunction. The crippled star destroyer, its power failing and engines destabilized, was left vulnerable and on the brink of destruction. =
