Alessandra Lucía de la Cavallería

Yeoman Alessandra Lucía de la Cavallería is a member of the command crew on the USS Odyssey.
== Background ==
Alessandra Lucía de la Cavallería was born in Mexico City in 2393, to Lieutenant Maria de la Cavallería, a retired Starfleet science officer, and T’len, a Klingon military officer visiting Earth as apart of a Diplomatic transfer in 2388. They had supposedly met at the Academy, where her Mother had been teaching Astrophysics, and dated for two years before marrying.  
However, shortly before Alessandra’s birth, T’len was unexpectedly recalled to Qo’Nos; he was never seen again by Alessandra or her mother after that, as he was not able to bring them with. Thus, the young Half-Klingon was raised chiefly by her mother and her family for most of her life. She knew next to nothing about her father or her Klingon heritage, except that he claimed to be descended from an ancient house called the House of Volkrah, and that he was from a long line of Warriors. 
Alessandra did not have many friends growing up, save for her cousins and a few other children. When her mother was working, she most often spent time at her Grandparents’ house out in the country, which she considered a second home. From one of her older cousins, she discovered a game called Warhammer 40k, which would grow into almost an obsession as she learned its rules and perfected her skill at it over the years. She even wrote her high-school thesis on the game. 
However, there was still the problem with her temper; she had to be suspended from school for a week when she punched another girl and fractured her jaw during a playground dispute. This bad behavior occasionally made appearances in her middle and highschool years, much to her mother’s dismay. 
Thus, when she was 20, Alessandra’s mother persuaded her daughter to enlist in Starfleet, hoping the experience would curtail her angry outbursts and bring her valuable skills. So, with some reluctance, the young half-klingon enlisted at the Academy, where she studied to act as a Yeoman. It was not much different from her regular school life, and made few friends. As usual, she either spent her freetime painting miniatures or engaging in a few select sports. 
Finally, after two years of studying, Alessandra graduated as a Petty Officer third class, being assigned to the USS Odyssey. 
== Appearance ==
Alessandra stands at 5’8” and weighs 158lbs. She has a toned build, not quite athletic but still in decent shape. She has brown skin and eyes, and freckles; her hair is dark and goes down to her neck. She also has a scar on her cheek that she acquired from a fight in high school. 
Being Half-Klingon, Alessandra has the ridged nose and forehead, though her cranial ridges are less prominent. 
== Personality ==
Alessandra is not a very social individual, though that is not to say she cannot be friendly. She prefers to keep to herself, and avoid confrontations when possible. However, when paired with people she likes, Alessandra expresses her own sort of muted friendliness, usually with sarcastic but well-meaning remarks. 
== Psych Evaluation ==
Despite claims of otherwise, Alessandra is quite sane for the most part. However, she does suffer from a short temper and an even shorter attention span. She is easily distracted, and although her temper is not enough to provoke violence, it is still strong enough to easily cause relationship or work issues if not reigned in. 
== Medical ==
Alessandra is allergic to pollen, but has no other medical conditions.
