| Personal History | She spent her early years on earth until her mother, Jessica passed away when she was 9. Her father, Edriar Kelan, was a Betazoid diplomat with Starfleet at the time. After Jessica's death he accepted a diplomatic appointment on Vulcan. Ayren attended a Vulcan school and was trained in logic and to utilize her telepathic potential. She had also spent time on Qon'oS when her father was posted there. Her father travelled extensively and Ayren never missed an opportunity to join him on missions. She wanted to serve in Starfleet since she could remember. She was exposed to many cultures and loved getting to know people. She entered Starfleet academy at the first opportunity, trained as a counselor and then while serving as counselor on Starbase 263. Her exposure there promted her interest in profiling, in which she did post gruaduate studies. At this time she met, fell in love with and married Mark, a pilot from the USS Roland, a ship attached to the space station. They had a son, Ethan. In a terrible accident Mark was killed, leaving Ayren and their small child devastated. The took a position on the USS Wolverine as it was too difficult to stay on the Starbase. Her son could join her, but spent time with her parents and family on Betazed too. At a time her son was away with her parents she had a harrowing experienced whilst serving on the USS Wolverine. On an away mission, she and the crew were "stamped" with new identities Ayren became Erin and ran a club and was a singer. Slowly but surely she realised she was different and used her ability to sense emotions and read minds to serve her patrons. Eventually she started to remember snipits and she and the Wolverine's security chief, who was a boss in the crime world, played a role in getting the crew together and sabotage the "stamps". Ayren lost her telepathic abilities which was a tremendous shock for her. She went to Batazed to recover and still struggled. Ethan was happy where he was on Betazed and enjoyed living there. They decided together that he would stay there and when he had the opportunity and her assignment allowed for it, he would join her. After a year on Betazed, her parents and son agreed that it was time to get back on a ship and have some fun. She applied as Chief Counselor on the USS Thunderbird |
