I am also requesting the position of First Officer, and will PM you the writing sample.
Name: Miqu'elan Dar'ce
First Desired Department: Engineering
Second Desired Department: Tactical
Third Desired Department: Operations
Fourth Desired Department: surprise me
Character Personality: Dar'ce is an intelligent person, though his common sense is sometimes lacking. He is a natural leader, attaining rank quickly in the Xenonian Republic navy before becoming a member of Starfleet in 2377. Dar'ce is loyal to his family, and to his religion. Xenonian traditions go with him wherever he goes, though not inappropriately so on the bridge of a starship.
Though a competent first officer, and potential commanding officer, Dar'ce is an excellent engineer, and sometimes forgets that his place is no longer in engineering, stepping on the toes of the head of that department occasionally.
Dar'ce has yet to find a wife, though he has had a few love interests over the years. His closest call to marriage was during his stint aboard the Decatur, where he became involved with a Cardassian woman on the Sopridian outpost, a heavily damaged colony world on the outer edge of Cardassian space. Her name was Ziyal Tophet.
The two had to separate after only three months working together, but they have since kept in contact. The relationship is still up in the air.
Dar'ce is a Xenonian, which means he is highly telepathic, but can shut down his telepathy at will. Alcohol makes Xenonians unwittingly throw their thoughts and emotions at other sentients, which is why most Xenonians refuse to imbibe. They have a similar concoction that releases inhibitions without the telepathic effects, called horvel, which is in many drinks, like alcohol on Earth. Dar'ce rarely imbibes horvel, but occasionally will treat himself when with other officers in an informal setting.
All in all, Dar'ce is a good officer with good prospects at his own command, though he admits freely he still has much to learn.
Character Bio/History:Born on Torvix the 3rd, 22341, Xenonian Standard timekeeping. Relates to July the 5th, 2349. (Subsequent years will be off, of course, because the Xenon Prime standard year is 344 days long, and a Xenonian standard day is 22 hours, Xenon time; 25 hours and 36 minutes, Terran Standard.)
Name-Miqu'elan Dar'ce (Pronounced Dar-chay)
Parents-Father Miqu'elan Luveth, Mother Miqu'elan Tovil
Siblings-Brother Luveth'a, To'krilt, Sister Vemyn
Dar'ce grew up on the Xenonian Republic world of Trivon, a rim colony near to the Klingon border. His father was a Rupublic Navy Engineer, his mother a stay at home mom. His family respected the age old traditions and religion of their ancestors, and treated every person they came in contact with with respect and generosity, until that person proved themselves unworthy.
When Dar'ce attained the Age of Decision, 15 for a male Xenonian, he accepted an apprenticeship in the Xenonian Republic Navy as a junior engineer. When his three-year apprenticeship was over, he applied at the Torvithic Naval Academy on Xenon Prime and was accepted with honors.
After the three-year course, Dar'ce graduated third in his class, attaining the rank of First Midshipman on the XRS Tova Gerhan, a Missile Destroyer, for his maiden cruise as an officer. (2367) After two years in this position, Dar'ce was promoted to Lieutenant, Second Class, where he served as 1st Assistant Engineer on the Tova Gerhan, learning what it took to run the engineering section of a Xenonian ship.
By 2374, when the Dominion War broke out, Dar'ce was the Chief Engineer of the XRS Elta Domir, an Elta-class Command Cruiser, and served with distinction during several battles with their allies in the Federation against the Cardassians and Dominion. Heartache befell Dar'ce when, during some extremely harsh fighting in the Chintoka system, the Breen caught the Xenonian task force with their energy dampening weapons. The Elta Domir was destroyed.
With the Xenonian fleet in shambles, and the Klingons holding the front as best they could, Dar'ce and his crewmates returned to Xenon to help rebuild the fleet. The admiralty offered Dar'ce command of the drydocks at Trivon, which he took without a word of protest. After turning out destroyers and torpedo cruisers at an amazing rate, thus supplementing the badly damaged fleet, Dar'ce received a commendation, and was offered a position of First officer anywhere in the fleet, upon CO approval.
Dar'ce accepted, and was promoted to SubCommander, first officer of the Elta Nor, an upgraded Elta-class Cruiser that could withstand the Breen dampening weapon. The Elta Nor participated in the Federation Alliance invasion of Cardassia.
After the war was over, the Xenonian Republic finally ratified the Membership Treaty that would make them full Members of the Federation. The Republic Navy was integrated into Starfleet, and SubCommander Miqu'elan Dar'ce was transferred to the Starfleet Vessel USS Decatur, a Miranda-class destroyer deployed to the Cardassian Union, to patrol for pirates and defend struggling colonies from raiders.
In January of 2380, Commander Miqu'elan Dar'ce accepted transfer to the USS Venture as the First Officer.
