Doctor Ra'Hala, Chief Medical Officer U.S.S. Yorktown wroteA human female with above average height for the species and with a well-toned frame sporting a trim waist, individual has strong physicality and engages in exercise on the routine which offsets heavy eating. Notably low blood pressure. Resting temperature is slightly below average at 36.3 Celsius. Individual is strong and flexible, healthy enough to be an athlete, and has no diseases or problems that will impact duty.
Doctor's Note
Melanin in eyes to cause amber coloration is rare and found in only a single digit percentage of the species on average. Individual has sensitivity to sudden bright lights due to chemical makeup that forms this color, but should only experience mild temporary discomfort in such situations. However, of note, this has made individual jumpy to objects near the eyes in general and eyes to water eagerly, so care should be given. Individual sports remarkable mammary development, if significant size increase occurs, advise consideration of diet alterations.
Mental Health Assessment
Doctor Farmer, Counselor at The Citadel wroteGuest is rather intimidating in appearance and sports a fierce neutral expression, but is actually rather well adjusted. Responds well to socialites, though is assuredly an introvert and runs out of social energy in large groups over time. A bit of a workaholic, she is a perfectionist that will fully work through tasks before moving on, a somewhat Vulcan-like mentality. More cautious than spontaneous, she is protective and thinks things through before acting. A former Naval Officer, she has a strong mentality base and is well fit for duty regardless of the task type. Although forgiving, guest has a tendency to respond in kind in combative situations if engaged first.
