Character's Name: Ava Pedarzolli
Age: 35
Gender: Female
Physical Profile
Ava appearance is youthful. Her hair, which is a dark, bark brown, cascades in waves over her shoulders and down her back. Her eyes, which appear blue from a distance, are actually light green, speckled with gold and hazel. They seem to shine when she smiles. Her skin is tan and even. Standing at 5'7 and weighing only 125 lbs, Ava is lithe and thin and demure. When not in uniform she dresses casually. She prefers earth tones such as greens, brown, blues and tans all of which emphasize her natural beauty.
Birthplace: London, England
Preferred rank: Lt.
Department: Assistant Chief Science Officer
Personality:
Ava considers herself to be an independent woman. She makes decisions and stands by them no matter the outcome. She doesn't like admitting that she may be wrong, but if the situation warrants it she will push aside her pride and say so. Ava is not perfect and she knows that.
Her personality is skewed and she can be a tad bit hypocritical at times. She's most contradictory when she feels she has no way of defending herself.
She enjoys a good laugh and though she's not a comedian she does dish out the occasional bad joke just for kicks. She's spontaneous and has been known to drop what she's doing and run off to do something more exciting. She's like a loose canon. You never know when inspiration will hit her.
Ava is hardworking. There is not another person in the entire universe who thrusts themselves into work as readily as she does. Though she usually works alone (she thinks better that way), she enjoys the company of a team. Getting her creative juices flowing exhilarates her.
Ava is also rather sensual. She's a sucker for romance. Though she doesn't believe in 'the perfect' lover, she does believe that there is someone out there for her. Her goal is to find him, but if she's too busy with work (she most likely will be) she hopes that he will eventually find her. She doesn't throw herself at men, but she flirts sometimes just to show that she's interested.
Background and History:
From a very young age Ava showed interest in science. She always wanted to know how things worked and where things came from. With a tiny magnifying glass and science kit in hand she would spend hours looking at bugs and plants and collecting live specimen which she would bring home to her mother's horror. Her father, a rather bubbly man, placed her in a science camp and there her love for science grew. The rest is history.
At the age of 17 Ava enlisted in the Star Fleet Academy where she pursued various fields of science. Her love for one field did not overshadow her love for another, so after learning about many, she was advised to pursue a career as a Chief Science Officer. She knew that reaching that goal would take some time and she was patient enough to see it through to the end. As of right now she continues to work toward that goal.
There was one science that tended to draw her attention more than others however; paleontology. She loved exploring the history of her world and the planets she visited while a crew member on various star ships. Getting her hands dirty while doing something she loved kept her coming back for more.
She still has a way to go before calling herself chief, but as ACSO she's one step closer to her dream.
Name of Celebrity: Evangeline Lilly
Sample Roleplay:
"No no no! That's a rock, not a bone," she told her newest ensign. The young girl looked at her with the rock in her hands, her eyes wide and confused. Ava shook her head with disbelief before throwing her head back, laughing at the top of her lungs.
"Dear girl. These bones haven't been buried along enough to have so many granules. That's basalt. This," she held up the remains of an animal's femur. "This is a bone. See how smooth it is," she said holding out the bone for the girl to analyze.
Standing, she brushed the dirt from her pants and peered around at the other ensigns. Teaching wasn't exactly in her job description, but if spending a few extra minutes with the new ensigns made them better officers she would.
Stepping over their latest finds, a large mammoth fossil, she walked over to the research tent and grabbed the scanner as well as a container filled with water. Doing a quick sweep of the surrounding land, she smiled and slipped the scanner back onto the table. From what she saw they'd be working for at least another week. This was a huge burial ground and it was absolutely amazing!
Taking a sip of water, she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and stepped back out into the blinding sun. "Yes, now you've found something good!" She said peering over the shoulder of the timid ensign. She girl smiled and continued working.
Wiping sweat from her brow she continue her rounds. Though it was smothering hot she couldn't imagine being anywhere else.
