Tall and graceful, Nia has bold features set into pale blue-green, almost watery, skin. She puts significant effort into tamping down the "hot Orion girl" cliche because the plain fact is that she looks every inch the part: filling her Federation uniform nicely; preferring a short skirt and bare legs to the standard long pants, and; pushing regulations to their utmost limits by letting her russet brown hair tumble around her face and down her back to her shoulders.

Description and Carriage[edit]

Tall and graceful, Nia has bold features set into pale blue-green, almost watery, skin. She looks every inch the cliche of the hot Orion woman: filling her Federation uniform nicely; preferring a short skirt and bare legs to the standard long pants; and pushing regulations to their utmost limits by letting her russet brown hair tumble around her face and down her back to her shoulders.

On duty, she's all business: focused and professional, studied, drilled in the relevant procedures. She runs strictly by the book. Her climb up to leadership has left her with more practical knowledge of her ship, its crew, and its workings than most captains have.

Off duty, she's relaxed and huggy. She loves parties and club or couples dancing. She flirts and banters and laughs freely. She wears other cultures' party clothes, favoring human styles, but never Orion dancing clothes. Once free, she burned hers to leave that life behind.

She can't produce the infamous pheromones.

History[edit]

Niadra had been sold into slavery early. She commanded a steep price, and became the prize possession of a Romulan mining baron who kept many more in slavery on a remote colony in the Neutral Zone. She had made it most of the way through organizing an insurrection when they were all liberated by the Federation, which she joined in gratitude. While she suffered more than her share of discrimination in Starfleet, the thing that kept her going was the promise that people were subject to laws and policies and procedures, and she could use them against the worst of the bullies. The system wasn't perfect, sure, but it beat tyranny. It gave the young Orion a taste of a completely different kind of power: knowing, and enforcing, the rules.

She found she had a knack for Engineering at Starfleet Academy, and it was the commission she got instead of leadership, so she has years of experience with shipboard engineering by now, including a certain number of the "what the blazes is that" encounters that are part of life in Starfleet. But her focus has always been more "what the blazes is that doing to the ship and how do we counter and repair it?"

Stuck below decks after graduation, young Niadra formed a plan. She didn't need rank to lead. That was a skill she'd learned among the slaves. Ranks followed accomplishments, and all she needed was to make sure the right people saw her leading. She knew exactly who they were. And now, after years, here she was. Granted, it was a commission out in the middle of the unknown, but she was finally a senior officer.
