IV. Medical Notes
=====
Serenidad exhibits Vulcan-like focus, highly abstract thinking, advanced mental processing speed, and a nearly photographic memory. Her projected lifespan is expected to exceed 500 years. All these abilities are due to the ongoing Sicaraxan eugenics program begun at the colony's founding.
Until recently, Serenidad's "natural" abilities were enhanced by a series of artificial implants. She had artificial eyes that interface with three bioimplants in her cortex. These permitted her to visually process data files stored within her implants as well as improve physical coordination.
Other implants in her cerebellum gave her acrobatic agility. Buried within her bones lay a personal shield generator, site-to-site transporter, and various energy weapons. Stored elsewhere were nanite workers to keep her artifical parts working and as anti-borg combatants.
All of her artificial devices were surgically removed on SD 180403. Her homeworld had ordered this aciton for all Sicaraxans serving in Starfleet and in governmental offices throughout the Federation. It was deemed a politically necessary gesture in the planet's application for Federation membership. Serenidad looks forward to the day when her enhanced abilities will be restored to her.

V. Biographical Notes
=========
Sicarax was founded in the 22nd Century by a group of Earth scientists with the intention of creating a genetically advanced society. The colony flourished in peace until galactic politics drew a border with an unfriendly 23rd Century Klingon Empire only a few light years away. Sicarax applied for and received protection from the Federation, but not membership. The planet was quarantined to protect Federation Society from the dangers perceived by the eugenics program.
Political attitudes required over a hundred years to cool before Sicarax successfully lobbied the Federation Council to allow some of the colonists to apply for citizenship. Young Estrella Serenidad's parents were among the first applicants. Her parents entered Federation society as diplomats and quickly made names for themselves working with the Tholians.
The frequent diplomatic trips to and from Tholian space gave Serenidad a taste for life among the stars. Still, she had to apply twice to Starfleet before friendly Federation Council members could push her through admissions. The screening board admitted reluctance to shouldering responsibility for the obvious political consequences that Serenidad's career would bring. Once in the Academy, however, Serenidad enjoyed the fact that she performed better than most anyone else at nearly everything she did.
While Serenidad appreciated her abilities, she has been incessantly drilled by her parents, mentors, and friends not to flaunt her talents or to develop attitudes of inherent superiority. As an adult, she came to appreciate just how closely political entities within Starfleet, the Federation Council, and her homeworld Sicarax were watching her integration. Her success or failure would directly affect her homeworld's ongoing pursuit of Federation membership.

V. Personality Notes
========
A. Ambitions
Serenidad seeks to build political connections through Starfleet, then run for the Federation Council. She wishes nothing less than to speed the Federation's march toward symbiosis with the synthetic. She sees this as the next inevitable step in human evolution.
B. Personality
Serenidad is intellectual, deeply spiritual, and quietly passionate about her political views. She is aware of the Federation's reluctance to indulge in artificial human enhancements and guards her more shocking opinions on eugenics. Since the Sicaraxan authorities ordered its citizens working within the Federation to abandon their artificial bio-devices, Serenidad's loyalty has been severly tested. Her cool confidence has shifted to near constant unease as she struggles to adapt to life without her enhancements. She feels far less secure personally without her body defenses.
She treasures friendship, loyalty, and integrity. She does not trust anyone easily. Those who betray her trust find it nearly impossible to regain it.
C. Favorite Things
Favorite Scriptures: I Corinthians 15:54; I Thessalonians 4:13-14 Favorite Color: Cream Favorite Beverage: Sucar Rojo (Sweet, blood red beverage) Favorite Food: Cheese
D. Hobbies
Christian Studies Philosophy Strategy simulations
E. Idiosyncracies
She is always eager to argue philosphy, religion, and politics.
F. Spiritual Beliefs
Many find it remarkable that a genetically superior human converted to Christianity. Serenidad claims that a classmate, Taka Kwihani, first challenged her on the subject of comparing religions. Kwihani helped her recognize the futility of existence without the hope of everlasting life. From there it was a two year walk toward becoming convinced that she had found the "right" religion. Of course, she admits to a habit of constantly double-checking the evidence, arguments, and her own personal reasons for believing. Religious debate is a favorite passtime of hers.
G. Weaknesses
WEAKNESSES Technological accessories. The temptation to show off, especially in competitive sports. Any philosophical debate relating to meaning of life, the universe, and everything.
