Yoiko Hax

Yoiko is a short, slender woman easily mistaken for someone younger than she is. Of course living with humans and their short life spans makes everyone seem too young or too old by comparison. Running down to the middle of her back when it's not tied back, the woman's long "lemon tea" blonde hair is usually pulled down to cover the two rows of easily visible spots running down the sides of her face and literally all the way down her body to her toes. It's not because she's ashamed of them, she's very proud of her heritage. She just doesn't like answer questions about them. Typically the woman wears the red shirt and black pants uniform of the USS Vesuvius, even if she isn't onboard ship anymore. While easily covered by the dark blue denim jacket she tends to wear, her uniform even bears the emblem of the ship stitched onto her left breast with the spiral insignia of the Engineering Department. As soon as she can find a new one, she'll also be wearing a heavy duty tool belt - an old habit she's never kicked. Often she'll wear the coat around her waist just to have the feeling of weight she's missing. Unlike most enlisted officers in Starfleet, Yoiko constantly wears a pair of round, slightly tinted, glasses due to an allergy that prevents her from taking corrective eyesight drugs like Retinax V.

Background

Born on the planet Trillius Prime, often shortened to just Trill, Yoiko grew up in a small family and spent most of her time with her nose in a book reading about various technologies and propulsion systems. While she could have stayed on her home world and joined the esteemed Trill Science Academy, Yoiko had her sights set on exploring space and jumped at a possibility to sign up for Starfleet. For the next ten years she lived and breathed nothing but advanced warp theory until she worked her way into becoming the Chief Engineer of the USS Vesuvius.

Along with the ship's Captain, Jonathon Munster, the two created a working prototype for the warp engines that would one day replace the standard for interstellar flight. Unfortunately due to the strain caused by the ship's warp nacelles, the engine ripped the Vesuvius apart during its initial tests, setting back the project several years and costing them the life of the ship's doctor. The tests where conclusive enough to have the Vesuvius repaired and put back into semi-active status with a new version of the engine along for the ride. During the next two years of light service the USS Vesuvius took part in many off the record technology experiments and became a test bed for projects the public was not supposed to know about.

Eventually a successful test of an upgraded ship's sensors discovered a planetoid inside a black hole that supported life. An away party was immediately sent to investigate consisting of Yoiko, the Captain, and the ship's Chief Helmsman, Lieutenant Mark Galpin. Yoiko did the calculations herself making her feel all the more guilty when the effects of the black hole caused them to materialize on Twisted with no hope of getting back...
