I hold my family very dear to my heart and when I manage to get away from my busy life I give the greatest hugs to those I love deeply. At last count, my family numbers 41 when we gather! (That's Grandparents, Parents, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Niece, Nephew and In-Laws) | ||

I do hold dearly to my faith, but don't make that scare you off. I have no desire to convert others - as long as they are not attempting to convert me! I do so love a good solid ecumenical discussion. If you are looking for something faith based to scare you off, perhaps this next tidbit may do such: I am in the process of becoming a Religious Sister (a Nun), though not a Cloistered Religious. AND I AM IMPATIENT TO GET THERE!!!! Hurry up student loans and BEGONE! | ||

The only others are my father's father and my mother's cousin. The rest are hopeless musically. I am most fond of Choral singing and when I have been unable to be in a choir I have languished horribly, I also have a deep love for Muscial Theatre, I will sing along to the point where I know all the parts and will have my own little show in my bedroom. I know I'm crazy because I volunteered to help with the Musical at the school I work at. | ||

Currently I am struggling to return to active singing after an extended absence. I have lost several notes off the top of my former vocal range and need a new vocal coach to regain them, hopefully the new year will bring that into existance. For those of you who know music I am a first soprano and was able to hit B5 regularly and C6 occasionally, but now am struggling to hit A5 without strain | Currently I am struggling to return to active singing after an extended absence.

I sometimes find great humour in the fact that I am, in general, the most musically inclined member of my family. Why, you might ask? Ah, well, I am Hard of Hearing. I wear, and have worn since I was two years old, Hearing Aids. With out my 'ears' I am unable to hear in any sort of normal range. This has also been one of the greater struggles coming back to music, I got a new set of hearing aides during my absence from music and am having to re-learn how to listen in a choral setting... sigh, the things we do for what we love. I actually acted like a Diva in my frustration (so not like me)! | I sometimes find great humour in the fact that I am, in general, the most musically inclined member of my family.

Note about Hearing Aids: They are dying and so I NEED money to get new ones. Anyone got a spare 5000 Dollars? | Note about Hearing Aids: They are dying and so I NEED money to get new ones. Anyone got a spare 5000 Dollars? | ||

Recently I finished reading the "Sword of Truth" series by Terry Goodkind and am now looking for the next great adventure in reading. | ||
I am also a self proclaimed computer geek and love to fiddle around with computers. I particularly enjoy working with a program similar to PhotoShop (called Gimp), where I have created the Character photos you see for my characters. (Not bad eh?) I think I'll drop in a couple of my other creations as well, just for the heck of it... scroll down, you'll like them. | |||

{{Infobox USS Hades Player}} | |||
Lo'ren T'Vof is a product of the Cardassian Occupation of Bajor. She is also a product of who I am - a musician, a curious being, occasionally daft and oblivious, almost always friendly and trusting - but when such trust is lost it takes major work to gain it back from her. | |||
She's a very affable person, except when it comes to Cardassians - she's had many a difficulty restraining herself in their presence as she was under the thumb of the Cardassians until she was 9 years old - forced to work the mines on Bajor, where she received the scar that runs up her left arm to her temple. She's usually content and polite, but sometimes she can be a bit impatient. | |||

Viskhard is a rather intellectual fellow who likes to study in his free time (he has a list of subjects he wants to take). A scientist through and through, he is always fascinated by just about anything. He's not your typical Denobulan though, in that he is not, and has no desire to begin marrying - though should he find the right girl(s) he wouldn't be against the idea! | Viskhard is a rather intellectual fellow who likes to study in his free time (he has a list of subjects he wants to take).

=== [[Radulf Tancred]] === | |||
[[Image: Radulf_tancred.jpg|thumb|left|Instructor Radulf Tancred]] | |||
{{Infobox Academy Player}} | |||
Radulf is an instructor at Starfleet Academy and is assigned to Holodeck 11. He comes from an old German family and carries the straight-laced, strict, no nonsense attitude taught to him by his Vater and Grosvater. Part of this attitude is an attentiveness to detail that borders on obsessive compulsive. He is also rather touchy on the subject of respect and doesn't like cocky cadets. | |||
Yes, Radulf has his own page too, click on his name! | |||

=== [[Arysha Tethlin]] === | |||
[[Image: Arysha_tethlin.jpg|thumb|right|Ensign (jg) Arysha Tethlin]] | |||
Arysha is a member of the Atrean species. She was born on a Federation Space Station after her parents had fled their home planet Atrea. The planet's magma core was found to be cooling and many people fled the planet. Most returned following the help the Enterprise-D provided Drs. Pran and Juliana Tainer that reliquified the core, but Canek and Timil Tethlin were engineering scientists and interested in working with the Federation elsewhere. | |||
Arysha's parents chose to explore the Galaxy and Arysha was born during an extended stay on Science Station Tango Sierra, where her parents were working as scientists at the time. | |||
Arysha looks like a typical Atrean, and the only thing that one would see in looking at her is that she wears a pair of black gloves that shimmer in the light as her hands move. She also wears what appears to be a pair of silver framed glasses. Both these items are essential for Arysha to get through day to day life. The glasses provide her with a realtime textual translation of speech and other pertinent information around her. The gloves provide a realtime translation that is vocalized by a vox when she communicates. Arysha is completely Deaf and uses Sign Language to communicate, the vox she wears translates her language almost literally - thus, most of the time she "speaks" Federation Standard but the syntax is similar to a Latin-based Earth sign language colloquially known as ASL. | |||

What I like to do sometimes though is art. I paint using acrylic, I like to draw, and I like to do computer art. These are some of my works. Look forward to seeing some of my pencil drawings down the road. I've just got to scan them into my computer. | ||

Viskhard is my brother (don't tell) add Denobulan forehead, Bihotz is my cousin-in-law and Napean forehead and Yuri Abelev and Arysha Tethlin are my cousins (again don't tell). Also, when you check out the pictures from [[Lo'ren's Story]] those are my actual parents. My dad makes a decent Vulcan no? | ||
