Personality & Traits
General Overview | Jas is a brilliant scientist, or will be once she has some more experience under her belt. For now she is inquisitive, almost curious to a fault and is very excitable once she gets on a roll. Jas is also in love with space travel, she wanted to see as many worlds as she can. She does feel rather out of place on a ship of war, she didn’t sign up to be a solider. Her focus has been doing her duty, and well leaning what that is. Although born in India, her mother was from England so she spent most of her life bouncing between the Family estates around the world. Because of this upbringing and her time at university she's developed a more pronounced British English accent than her parents. When joining Starfleet she found that most participants were still relatively local and she had to put up with the stiff upper lip English jokes now and then. Playing off with stride she preferred a bit of unexpected revenge. Ploys which earned her a few lifelong friends and memorable punishments from instructors. |

Personal History | Youngest daughter of the Chakrabarti shipping empire Jas didn’t quite fit in with her siblings. Growing up she always wanted to be outside, digging in the dirt, climbing a tree, or staring up at the Stars. Despite her interest in space and seeing other worlds she never wanted to run freight. As a teen she was trained, even sent on a short haul run to learn how to handle a ship. She certainly embraced space travel, just not how her parents intended. Jas had spent the whole trip tinkering with the sensors and reading everything the database held about what was outside of Earth’s solar system. This interest never changed, continuing on through her education and finally culminating in her applying for Starfleet. As much as she enjoyed tinkering Jas found she had a passion and a knack for the Sciences. The same eagerness to explore and find a way around a mechanical problem worked well for Astronomical theory. Her parents had just been starting to come around to the idea of her joining the Fleet, then the Xindi attack came and their tune changed before the day was over. Jas didn’t listen, if anything seeing the devastation, and assisting with a refugee center in the City only strengthened her resolve. She had to do something and hauling freight or working in the corporate office wasn’t it. So she continued on, even adding am extension course as a Medic to her summer schedule. Jas graduated only a month before the news of Berengaria reached Earth. As terrified as she was and as different as she expected her service in Starfleet would be, she wasn’t going to be deterred. She was going to do her duty, and one day she would be the grand explorer she always wanted to be. Her orders came through quickly, assigned to a battleship she was thrown for a bit of a loop. But she was a Starfleet Officer and she was determined to do her duty as best as possible |
