Description

Rachel Carlyle is a short, slim woman with blond hair, which she keeps in an updo while on duty. Her blue eyes are a window into a mind that is always looking for ways to improve something. When she has the time to let her hair down, she prefers simple, comfortable clothing.

History

She was born on remote, agrarian colony. She loves outdoor spaces with lots of sky above her. She doesn't talk about it much because she was barely ten when the colony was overrun by a native species. She needed to defend her younger brother Ted against one of the rampaging beasts. Her mother died in the attack and her father took his two kids off planet. During her pre-starfleet schooling, she discovered a warp-field property that increases the speed at which a ship transitions to warp by 3%. She was fast-tracked into the science school at StarFleet Academy. But she transferred to Engineering as soon as she could. She's too practical to be a scientist.

During an early assignment on Starbase 85, Rachel met Paul Dodd, an entertainment programmer and performer. He was traveling from base to base as a traveling entertainer for Starfleet (like the USO). He left the traveling show and became a holodeck writer while living on the Starbase. They married a year later. A few months into their marriage, Rachel was offered the Chief Engineer position on the USS Hathaway. She could not say no even it meant they would end up in a long distance marriage. Paul encouraged her to go.
