- Ash Yevel

Ash Yevel is a Starfleet Admiral in the Federation. He is the current commanding officer of the Sovereign vessel USS Victorious. He is also the director of the task-force Hazard Team. He is often seen paving the way for victory in difficult operations and insurmountable odds.

## Character Backstory

Ash Yevel from a young age always wanted to be a part of Starfleet in one way or another. His parents are some of the leading scientists and engineers that helped push warp to what it is today. They had a hand in the creation of the Galaxy type warp-core and eventually the Sovereign type. They achieved many awards and accommodations for their actions.

Their son, Yevel, wanting to live up to their glory and expectations, he enrolled in the academy at the age of 19. There he would do above average from his peers and was an excellent mechanic on anything dealing with warp. After his stint of 2 and a half years at the academy, he was able to graduate and get scouted by a captain looking to complete his crew compliment.

#### U.S.S. Arcadia [Crewman - Petty Officer]

He would begin his first assignment aboard the USS Arcadia a saber class. He served as a crewman in the engineering field. At first, he would simply just do repairs on minor systems and re-calibrate areas that needed it. The Arcadia at the time was assigned to the Klingon front to assist with incursions. During a battle on the front, the Chief Engineer was KIA. Yevel had to step up and take on the role of assistant chief engineer and keep the ship together while they fended off the attackers. After it was all said and done, Yevel was promoted to Petty Officer for his bravery and determination in the face of certain death.

#### U.S.S. Bismarck [Petty Officer - Lt. Jr.]

After a while on the Arcadia, Yevel decided it was time for a change of pace and ship. After searching around for a while, he found the USS Bismarck, captained by Miles O'Brien. O'Brien previously served on the Enterprise and DS9 and later found a captaincy on the Intrepid Class: USS Bismarck. Yevel, still kind of a greenhorn in Starfleet, decided to get into the role of Operations for the ship. Operations entailed mostly communications, but also tractor beams, probes, etc. The Bismarck made several missions to the Neutral Zone to keep the ever growing Romulan threat at bay. Yevel handled his job extremely well and efficiently. Also, he would gain access to the transporter system, using his expert skills to make sure the crew got on and off the ship safely. For his feats and determination he obtained the rank of Ensign and Lieutenant Junior Grade and the senior staff position of Chief Operations Officer.

#### U.S.S. Pegasus [Lt Jr. - Commander]

O'Brien always wanting to out do himself, he commissioned the USS Pegasus. In his words "das böseste Schiff in der Föderation". (weird, ik). He wanted all the upgrades, quantum this, quantum that. The works. The ship even had a cloaking device which they used greatly in the Azure Massacre. Yevel took pride in his work and continued being Chief Operations Officer for the vessel he cared so much for. Eventually Yevel decided it was time to move on once again after reaching the rank of Commander. He wanted his own ship. Something Victorious like. Something that would show the rest of the galaxy that the Federation will not stand down. The Pegasus continued on to be a "great" ship after the departure of this one of a kind Operations officer.

#### Victorious Era

It started as a day dream while working on the operatives console on the Pegasus. "What if I had my own ship" Yevel thought to himself and the gears began to spun. The Victorious went through a lot of design phases before the Sovereign class was chosen to be the herald of a new era. With the name and type of vessel picked out, it was time to assemble the crew. Yevel had a lot of connections while serving aboard the Pegasus and decided to pick one of their officers aboard to become his First Officer. He chose the silent but deadly Lt. Jessica. She had a lot of training and command expertise which made her perfect for the position. Also, Lt. Party was selected for second officer, but was shortly lived.

With the command staff selected, the ship was under construction! On February 29th, 2372, the Victorious in all his majestic glory was brought into the limelight and through the grace of Admiral James Buckbeak granted him the rank of Captain. It was a dream come true for Yevel, his own vessel and with a ship type he loved dearly. With his trusty crew on his side they scoured the ends of Federation space looking for adventure and excitement.

The Victorious handled all sorts of different operations and jobs given to them by the Admiralty. Yevel captained her with skill and poise. Eventually, he rose to the rank of Commodore. This enabled him to become a Flag officer. After this promotion, he worked more closely with the Admiralty to bolster the Federations defensive and offensive capabilities. After a while working diligently as a commodore; the time had come.

#### Rise to the Admiralty

Fleet Admiral James Buckbeak called Yevel and Captain Aaron to his office. They thought they were gonna get the scolding of a lifetime. But, it was an opportunity like no other. A spot on the Admiralty. Both, Yevel and Aaron accepted their commission to the Admiralty as Rear Admiral (lower half). The Victorious went into the hands of Commander Rroa; Yevel's trusted first officer after Lt. Jessica went MIA.

Fleet Admiral Buckbeak placed him as the Chief of Justice in the newly established Department of Justice. Yevel oversaw many cases mostly dealing with Jonathan Archer. Otherwise known as "The Chief" after a certain case. Yevel would continue to fight for the best interest of the Federation; war after war. He would slowly turn to yearn for his old ship back, but to the guidelines set, he couldn't. After years of fighting on the fronts, he decided to take it easy and retire on the shores of Risa 2.

#### Retirement

Yevel spend a good time of retirement on the bays of Risa 2 relaxing and recounting the memories of his once loved ship. Though retirement wouldn't keep him down for long, he decided to go back into active service after hearing the most recent Captain of the Victorious going MIA. He knew it was his time to step back up and fight for the Federation once more.

#### Return of the Admiral

He returned to active service once more with permission from Acting Fleet Admiral Nechayev. He was even allowed to have command of his vessel back. The Victorious was now dubbed the "Admiralty Flagship". During his return, Nechayev was killed and Yevel was instated as Acting Fleet Admiral as the previous Admiral Administration had retired as well and didn't want to return to active duty. Yevel took it upon himself to make the Federation great and lead them to an era of peace for a time. During this time he also instated the Hazard Team to assist with dangerous endeavors that would soon crop up.

#### Brainwashed

It was just another day on the Enterprise, when it got suddenly attacked by Romulans, Yevel and other members of the crew went to their battle stations and got ready for the threat at hand. These Romulans weren't like the others in the past like on the Bismarck or at the Azure Massacre. They had a way to control the mind of officers and Yevel being the Acting Fleet Admiral was a prime target. They were able to transport him to the T'Gala then warp, twist his mind til he was an agent for the Romulan Star Empire. The Romulans and Yevel were successful in dismantling the crew and taking the Enterprise Drive Section.

Eventually, the Hazard Team and Azazel Silvertongue were able to save Yevel and revert him back to the Federation. He was safely back into Starfleets hands and kept under watch until he was medically cleared to serve the Federation proudly once again.

#### Fall from Grace

Everything was going well for Acting Fleet Admiral Ash Yevel, he had his Hazard Team and the title like no other. But all good things must come to an end. They found a replacement for Fleet Admiral as Yevel was just the interim. It was none other than Ash Tyler. The Commodore of the Cait had proved himself to the President and a deal was struck between the two. Yevel peacefully transitioned his power to the newly minted Fleet Admiral and returned to his original position of Rear Admiral (Upper Half). Even after all that, Yevel continues to do his best to protect what he holds dear.

#### The Shattered Moon

The era of peace did not last for long as the Romulans once again went to war with the Federation. They had a super weapon like no other. The Hazard Team and other Starfleet Personnel went to go stop them from using the giant laser weapon. At first they thought they were successful, but after Rear Admiral Kenrick told them to take the weapon back to Earth; it remotely activated and blew a **massive** hole right into the moon. The death count was projected to be in the millions perhaps billions. Though, Yevel was promoted to Vice Admiral after the encounter.
