=== BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES ===
==== Personal History ====
Originally born in a small village in Hawaii, Erys was sent to to live with her older sister, Aiku, at the age of 3. This arrangement became rather unpleasant, and Erys was eager to set out on her own. Throughout her teenage years, Erys was constantly getting into trouble, either at home or on the beach. She spent more and more time out in the water, as the waves were the only release she had.
Then, at 17, her life seemed to completely reverse direction. In what likely seemed a miracle to her teachers, she graduated from high school, and applied to join the Tactical branch of Starfleet. The move caught most of her peers off-guard, and more than a few of
her friends tried to talk her out of it. But Erys seemed resolute, almost scared of not going.
Initially, Erys had a tough time in the academy. The schedule was much more rigorous than what she was used to, and she struggled to keep up. Sensing her struggle, the Captain of the USS Khitomer requested her for an early cadet cruise. The young cadet was more than happy to accept a change of pace.
Unfortunately for her, the Khitomer was routed to the Vega colony to respond to a distress signal, which turned out to be a massive Borg attack. Erys and the surviving crew holed up in Engineering as they desperately tried to survive long enough to be rescued. Eventually, one of the rescue ships found them and returned them to Earth.
Erys, now faced with the realities outside Earth, became more focused and determined to finish her studies. She managed to make up much of the ground that had been lost in her first year and managed to graduate with her class as scheduled.
Following her graduation, Erys spent her first year on Spacedock as a security guard. It was during this assignment that she met Captain Honda and other members of the 22nd. It wasn't long before Erys decided she wanted to see the stars and requested the Ayanami.
Erys started her term on the Ayanami on 3rd shift and took on day shift during several away missions. After one such away mission, the ship's Security Chief disappeared, and Erys was forced to assume his duties until he returned or was replaced. Captain Honda had other ideas, apparently, and promoted Erys to Lieutenant as her new CSecO.
Things only seemed to get worse, as the Ayanami dealt with emergency after emergency. Both ship and crew started to wear out with the constant stress, which culminated in a battle against a single Raider ship. The ship was damaged to the point of being unrecoverable, and the crew was forced to abandon ship. They were rescued by the USS Independence, and trasported to K-7 for debriefing. Erys, even quieter than usual, eventually retreated to her quarters.
A few days later, Erys applied to
the Advanced Tactical Training course with Captain Honda’s recommendation. She spent the next 6 months on and around Earth, until returning to Honda’s new ship, the USS Okinami.
The situation seemed to be improving bit by bit, until a conference on shield nutations. Though Erys enjoyed the conference and learned several new techniques, tragedy struck on her return to the Okinami. Her shuttle was intercepted, and Erys was captured and brainwashed into believing she was a slave.
Even after the Okinami tracked her down and rescued her, Erys’ memory remained absent. Despite her memory loss, Erys still retained her skills and abilities, and was able to return to limited duty. This situation lasted until the Defera Operation, in which the USS Okinami was boarded by several Drones. Somehow this experience restored Erys’ memories to her. This blessing came with a curse, as the Okinami was disabled during the fight.
After returning to Earth, Erys was sent to an accelerated Dept. Head Training, which compressed the usual year-long course load into 6 months. Due to the overload of coursework, Erys had no time for vacation, and was even admitted to the campus clinic for work exhaustion on one occasion. Despite the difficulty, Erys completed her training
and returned to duty.
Immediately following her final exams, Erys happened upon her former crew at the 602 Club, and was dragged to an impromptu awards ceremony. The ceremony ended with a short shuttle trip to Mars, where the crew was awarded with a new Thunderchild-class USS Ayanami. However, when Erys was sent back to Earth with data collected from their first mission, Erys herself was reassigned with no explanation.
Weeks later, she was assigned to the USS Sentinel as the Chief Security Officer. Additionally, Erys has personally worked on overhauling the Sentinel's computer software in an attempt to make it impervious to outside infection.  For the next year, the Sentinel was sent on mission after mission, often with no chance to rest before being sent to the next mission.
The upgraded systems would be tested time and time again, culminating in a Tal Shiar plot involving double agents.  The plot resulted in a weeks-long investigation that was suddenly terminated without explanation.   With the Sentinel needed for a top-secret couriour mission, Erys and the rest of the crew were restored to active duty and sent on their way to <redacted>.  
It was during this mission that Erys mistook the actions of the ground team as hostile, and opened fire.  Although neither side sustained casualties, Erys immediately relieved herself of duty and spent the next few days in the brig.  Either unable or unwilling to keep her in the brig, Joy ordered Erys confined to quarters instead, but within hours Erys was back in the brig, this time on suspicion of attempting escape.
Weeks later, the Sentinel returned to port, and Erys was released from the Brig. She met with Captain Hathaway, who almost immediately cleared her for duty. In the course of the discussion, Erys began to learn the true cause of what happened, and became more and more
determined to find out what was really going on.
Erys was reassigned to Earth to begin Command training, and was given command of a Nova class ship after graduation. Her new ship, the Marfa, was immediately sent on a long-range exploration mission to assist the new Romulan Republic in mapping the space beyond their borders. This mission would last for over a year, and lead to what Erys would consider the beginning of a successful career as a captain. Erys and her various commands have been featured occasionally since her entry into the Command arena, most notably during the Defense of Bajor during the H'urq invasion.
