Name: Susannah Calem
Age:31
Role:Zoologist.
Weapon/equipment: Combat knife, Veterinary supplies (varying strength anaesthetics to administer injections but also to apply to tranquilizer darts, suture kits etc).
Also carries a lightweight tranquiliser rifle in preparation for hunting new species on planets. She never saw the need for lethal firearms for herself as she was always accompanied by appropriately-armed guards during expeditions on Earth.
Appearance: Susie is 5'8, and in exceptional shape considering she's had two children. Her long, red hair is extremely vibrant and often occasions comment from newly met people. She often wears simple, comfortable clothes like jeans and a hoody but has been known to dress herself up beautifully for the right reasons. On HMS Intrepid, she is wearing her work clothes, consisting of a black pencil-skirt, white blouse and white lab-coat.
Bio: Susie loves animals and is one of Earth's top animal experts. When she was offered a place on the HMS Intrepid, the potential to find and study alien species was too good to pass up.
Although she was excited by this one-time chance, Susie was also worried about being away from her husband, Jonhny, and spending so much time away from her two children; she knew there was the potential that she would miss them growing up if she agreed to travel on HMS Intrepid. Having finally been convinced by Johnny to take the place, she misses them everyday and can can sometimes fall into long episodes of depression despite her bubbly and energetic exterior.
Although Susie is an exceptional scientist, it is in the field that she most thrives. The thrill of tracking and studying animals on Earth is something that couldn't be beaten. Thus far, however, no alien species have been found and Susie spends her days physically and mentally excercising, twiddling her thumbs and longing to see her family again.
