Hailing ostensibly from an obscure tourist-trap of a colony, Eight York is a promising young officer in Londo Bell, notable for balancing cheer and extreme competence. Her path to Captaincy has seen death and despair already, but she maintains a positive attitude, and her people skills, optimism, and general resilience have won her the loyalty of her crew thus far. ...Secretly, though, the higher-ups in her organization are aware of some details of her mysterious past, including the abilities awakened in her by means she does not discuss. This past may relate to why it’s impossible to find records of her early childhood--or why she excuses herself whenever the conflicts of the late 80s arise.

Background

Public knowledge of Eight York's background indicates that she has been in the Federation military since a little after her high school graduation, in 0096, and prior to that she was a resident of Winter Wonderland for about ten years. This is where information on her history dries up, however; the records simply aren't there to explain where she was before the age of nine or ten.

However, her service record is exemplary already; formerly the Comms Officer on the Ra Mari, Eight York became Captain during a series of tragic incidents about the Winter Wonderland colony, during which time nearly all of the senior officers of the ship perished. Her quick thinking and readiness to lead earned her a promotion, and the ship she'd saved.

Resources

Firstly, Eight York is Captain of a Federation battleship, which gives the benefits one might imagine; she has people who will follow her orders, free access to the ship's databases, and the freedom to deploy specialized equipment including mobile weaponry. This is in addition to the general benefits of being a Federation officer, such as lodging and pay. With her high rank, she can get into a lot of facilities and has clearance to know a lot of information that others wouldn't have access to... though in turn she's obligated to keep that information secret, and Londo Bell doesn't have a lot of pull in other Federation forces.

Another resource that Eight has is her powerful psychic ability; as a Cyber Newtype her mind was forced open to the impulses of others and to the world around her, and she has only /gained/ in attunement with that world since she's been living with other people in a 'normal' life. She can read people instinctively, tends to know when someone is lying, and has an acute danger sense and ability to predict people around her. However, the experiments that gave her her abilities were still being perfected, and this results in a number of physical and mental issues that she has mostly been able to compensate for with therapy and medication. She needs regular access to medication in order to keep some of these side-effects in check, so this is not entirely a benefit.

She's also generally friendly and nice and has the resources that come from having a lot of friends in a number of places. Sometimes it helps!
