BACKGROUND:
Meredith was born on an asteroid based Earth colony. When it was attacked by an unknown force, rumoured to be the supposedly long extinct ‘Chigs’. Unregistered, and unidentified, she was taken into care at 6 months old and adopted by an archaeologist and his wife on Earth. Here she grew up and had a happy childhood, with no surface memory of what had befallen her or her birth family and the colony. She was a bright, happy child, who doted on her father and wanted to follow in his footsteps. Thus when she entered university she chose to study archaeology. She met Army during a painting class on Earth in France when Army was studying her culinary arts and Meredith was taking a break and seeing the different cities of earth before going to study on Vulcan. When she was doing her field training, she received word that her mother had died in a shuttle accident. From then on she began to have nightmares of things that seemed to almost be memories. She could never really remember them well when she was awake. They soon grew less so she quit worrying about them, though they always seemed to be there, right beneath the surface, waiting for some trauma to bring them to the fore.

PERSONALITY:
Meredith is a close friend of Aramanda Vel, the joined Trill barkeep on board the USS Legacy, who often calls her MeriMac. She is serious about her occupation, bordering on obsessed, and will do anything to make a new discovery or protect ancient ruins from demolition, even to the point of getting in trouble with the authorities. Meredith is a happy, bubbly person, who makes friends easily, and often comes across as a bit of a dingbat, but she is far from it. The trauma of her early months and adoption do not seem to have had any affect on her… so far. She is very intelligent and loves old things, and mysticisms, including Tarot cards, rune stones from various worlds, ancient myths, etc. Ancient writing fascinates her as well as music and the living record of people. She keeps a journal almost religiously. She also enjoys painting, though not the way Army does. Mer tends to use a brush, not her body. She practices Tai Chi and loves a party as well as the next person. Being busy out in the field, she has not really had time for, nor given a thought to, having a boyfriend, thus she has no children. Her submerged / repressed early memories could well hold the secret of what actually happened to the lost colony of Aransas, if they can only be accessed, but so far, no luck. |
