<div class="floatright">(http://i2.listal.com/image/384462/600full-bertila-damas.jpg)</div><del><br/><strong>Name:</strong> Vanessa Grhlesh<br/><strong>Age:</strong> 104 (?)<br/><strong>Race:</strong> Romulan<br/><strong>Role/Rank:</strong> Captain<br/><strong>Personality:</strong> <br/><br/>Unlike Vulcans Romulans accept passion as an inspirational ally and although vulcans and romulans can look very simular this difference in idiology makes them everything but. Hot-heated to even human standards, the Romulan mind is neverthe-less refined in the matters of logic. Vanessa is one that doesn't enjoy tangents and prefers to get the job done, herself promoted and those that served the cause well, and with captain titles of their own.<br/><br/>Vanessa cares little for romance but does believe the romulan empire will do best if association with the Federation is stronger tan what it is and believes an example could help tip elders in the Romulan empire to rethink their proud stance. The idea of a cloaking device not being on board the ship frustrates this Captain no end, as like most romulans believes any technological edge not used, its an ace wasted to further weaknesses.<br/><br/>Neverthe-less she is silently impressed with what the current ship can do (although she will not tell others), especially due to the flexibility its increased flight deck offers. She is abrupt, to the point and almost always is found at the bridge going through war plans with commanding officers. <br/><br/>The is not well liked among the officers and staff alike due to how many evacuation and war drills at awkward hours she imposes on the crew. still all know it makes them good, and due to such a stance she has lost less lives under her command than others which has seen as much war as she. <br/><br/>Her most notable achievement was overseeing a brilliantly executed withdrawal and evacuation of two planets in the front line of a borg offense, done without planning or warning. All those serving with her in previous missions have returned with promotions beyond their expectation.  As hard as she may be to deal with personally, her reports on others she feeds to admiralty are glowing, all know this which is why most bite their tongue during her emotional bursts and yet another drill.</del>
