Andromeda Dorn

Ensign Andromeda Dorn is a communications officer on the USS Odyssey.
== Background ==
Born in the late 24th century to a loving couple of retired starfleet officers. Their father was an engineer and her mother was a biologist. Their early childhood wasn’t very eventful, just the standard kid stuff. They were diagnosed with adhd at 8 years of age because they could never sit still and could never focus on one thing unless she really liked what she was doing. At around 10 years of age they started to hyperfocus on machines, which she found amazing. When her parents found out about the little machines and programs they were making, her dad was enthused to find out that his child was able to do all of this at the age of 10. Their mom was also completely on board with what she was doing so she bought Andi more electronics and parts to continue building. When they turned 11 they took to singing. Her voice was definitely not the best when they started, and it never would be. She started to take vocal lessons that same year, but stopped taking them because they thought it was very boring and it couldn't hold their attention. About 3 years later they came out to her parents as non-binary and lesbian, which her parents fully supported. Throughout her entire childhood they never stopped singing or programming. They entered Starfleet Academy at 16 where she stuck mostly by themself for the first few months of year 1. They excelled in their robotics and engineering classes because of their hyperfocus on machines at a young age. Her survival classes were where they truly had the most fun because they were able to be a bit more active physically. They struggled in Diplomacy and Communications for most of her first year before gaining confidence going into year 2. One of the things that helped boost her confidence was the fact that she started singing in public, she was no Doctor, but still pretty good at it. Once more people started coming to hear them sing, she truly realized that she had a voice. About half way through their 2nd year they started reading up on other cultures and religions, so she wasn't disrespectful during her diplomacy class. She tried to have as much fun as she could when not busy because she needed something to distract them from school because she learned the hard way in their first year that you need to balance school and your life. Year 3 was mostly the same except she started helping out students during programming and robotics because she was always done early.. Plus, once the communications class started to talk about how to make universal translators in case of first contact with a new species, which really got Andi's attention because it was more programming. However, some students she tried to help really aggravated them because they knew how to do the assignment, but we're just slacking off. Their final year at the academy was more focused on graduating so most of her hobbies were pushed aside in favor of school. However she always found time to sing and program even during the stressful times. They finished in the top 15% of students at the academy and graduated with her long time friends. Their first assignment out of the Academy is on the Odyssey as the Communications Officer.
== Appearance ==
They definitely present feminine as they were assigned female at birth. She is about 5 foot 9 or 175 centimeters. Her eyes are so blue that they are almost purple. Their natural hair color is brown. They are caucasian but more tan than most other Caucasians (I know it doesn't look like it but again the picture will change in a few days)
== Personality ==
Since they just got out of the Academy she is still getting used to everything. She respects their superior officers and normally follows orders, but in their own way. Sometimes they will question orders, but never aloud. She can be very sarcastic sometimes yet caring. They always try to treat people with kindness and tries to keep an open mind.
== Psych Evaluation ==
Her adhd has gotten better and doesn’t affect them as much because of medication. Her adhd has always been acute and they don't have to take meds for it, but she insists they take meds.
