Personal History: Envy Conyers and her associate, Clint Eastwood, assisted the Liberty on 16 August 2378 when the Federation starship, along with one Klingon and one Romulan vessel, were ambushed by a Breen/Remen force. Shortly there after, Captain Ace Decade invited Envy and Clint to join his crew and begin the ship's SWAT (Special Weapons And Tactics) Team (also known as a Hazard Team). In late February of 2379 an intelligence agent inadvertently discovered Envy Conyers and her true identity. She was immediately reported to Starfleet Command, however the result of the incident was unexpected. Independence Fleet reviewed Commander Conyers’ record after her secret return to the Liberty and came to the conclusion that confinement was unnecessary. Instead, Conyers was demoted to Lieutenant Commander and given the official position as the Chief Engineer of the Liberty under Captain Jeremiah Griffith. Subsequent reprimands for Commander Ace Decade and others involved in the secrecy are pending. Personality Profile: Little emotion or ambition, but far to sullen or sober to be considered Vulcan. Performs her duties to an almost drone-like efficiency, with little pride, boredom, or exhaustion in what she does. Some find her general emotional aura to be too silent or somewhat depressing.

Misc:
Envy is derived from the initials; N.V. Envy's full name is Noelani Vespera Conyers. Her previous name, Ashla Bogan, meant “light” “dark.” History Declassified per orders of Admiral Conyers, Head of Internal Affairs, and IDF Admiralty: Envy was originally known to the Federation as Ashla Bogan, and was born as Leysai (lee say) on the 24 January 2353. She was the first child of Mikkel Leukosdoron and Isolde Braonán, a mistress of Mikkel. Ashla has a younger sister and half brother by the name of Audra and Odinn Murchadh, however she has not learned of their existence, nor does she know her true biological mother. Isolde Braonán left Mikkel in 2354 while pregnant with Audra, and later married Tristan Murchadh, the man charged by Mikkel as Isolde's body guard. (For further information, please see Audra Murchadh.)

Tressa Leukosdoron, Mikkel’s wife, whom he married in 2354, later legally adopted Ashla. Ashla was the youngest child in the Leukosdoron family but heir to the family's throne. She had a brother, Deran, who was two years older, but unfitting for governance according to his parents. Because they lived outside of Federation space, both Ashla and her brother were genetically enhanced. She had a personal maid named Dauira (dar rea). Though Ashla did spend a great deal of time with her parents, Dauira was given the charge of raising her, and many times Dauira did not agree with the philosophies of Ashla's parents. Ashla first learned of the Federation from Dauira, an organization that Ashla's parents greatly opposed and tried to keep under wraps from Ashla who's greatest wish was to explore the stars. Ashla eventually learned more from the traders that would visit Pandoran, and later expressed her wish to join, but her father forbade it.

When Ashla was 12 (2365), she stowed away on a trader's ship and was discovered. The Captain of the ship, Metak, returned to Pandoran and tried to ransom Ashla back to her father, but her father refused, and instead disowned her, banning her from returning to the sector, and paid Metak to keep her. Ashla was forced to work on one of many trading ships in Metak's fleet. A year later (2366), she stole Metak's personal shuttle and escaped to Earth where she was given asylum. (The shuttle was returned Metak.) She gained Earth citizenship, changing her name to Ashla Bogan, and was taken in by Peter (son of Admiral Conyers) and Jane Conyers, though they did not legally adopt her. She began her pre-Starfleet studies under the tutelage of Admiral Conyer's assistant, Commander Hastur. In 2367 a bounty hunter (named, Stellan), was sent by her father, but could not bring himself to kill her when he found her (they had been good friends before she had been exiled from Pandoran), and he ended up turning himself in. Through his interrogation they learned of a few plots against Ashla and those that had taken her in, and from then on all information regarding her and her guardians' whereabouts was closely guarded.

In 2368, she wanted to enter the Academy, but her application was stalled because of her genetic enhancements, and it threatened her chances of joining Starfleet. Eventually, the academy accepted the advice of Admiral Conyers, head of IA, and his close friend, Admiral Bouer, an agent of IS, and Ashla entered later that year. She was able to catch up in her studies and graduated in 2372 at 19 as a lieutenant junior grade.

Her first tour of duty was aboard the Challenger under Captain Trazen. She was instantly demoted to ensign for "attitude and behavioral problems . . . disrespect for authority . . ." After about four years she was transferred by request of Trazen for "personality conflicts." Bogan was returned to lieutenant junior grade under the conditions of "failure and misjudgment by a commanding officer . . ." Admiral Bouer and a submission to military court brought this about. Bogan's transfer happened shortly after the trial.

At the end of 2376, Bogan joined the Sunfire as the chief helm officer, under Captain James West. In 2377, upon the creation of Independence Fleet, she was promoted to Lieutenant Commander and became the Sunfire's XO in place of Charles Star who took command of the USS Avalon. Near the end of 2377, Admiral Conyers officially adopted Ashla. Admiral Conyers and his wife call Ashla, Noelani Verspera Conyers, however, Ashla had not made an attempt to officially change her name on Starfleet records until early 2379.

During 2378, the Sunfire and Liberty participated in a joint mission. At this time, Ace expressed his feelings for Ashla, and she ended up telepathically connecting with him to save his life. Upon the conclusion of the mission, Bogan was kidnapped from the Sunfire by her elder brother, Deran. West and Ace attempted to rescue her, inadvertently rescuing a clone of Ashla that Deran had placed as a decoy. The clone was killed in an accident on board the Banting, and Ashla was recorded as deceased in Starfleet records.

The real Ashla, was taken to her old home of Pandoran, a prisoner of her manic depressive brother, who had earlier killed Mikkel and Tressa. Her brother was planning to use her as source of information in his campaign to conquer the Federation. By luck, the Liberty was sent to investigate rumors of Deran's plans and aided Ashla in her escape, only to end up loosing Ashla to Morana Thanatos, a malicious Q-like being whom many consider to be a mythical goddess of death. She remained in Morana's realm for a short time before being mysteriously released and rescued by the Liberty once more. By this time, the Independence Fleet had split, and Counselor Reah Santiago had taken her position as executive officer on the Sunfire.

Ashla was then invited to become the Liberty's next excutive officer. She accepted, however serving for only a few months, in which time Ace and Ashla attempted to pursue a relationship. Near the end of Ashla's service as excutive officer, Lieutenant Commander William Eastwood joined the Liberty. It was at this time that the Liberty was under ambush and captured by members of a gang called, "Black Dragon." The crew eventually escaped with the Liberty but they were unable to rescue Captain Decade. At the same time, the Black Dragon was launching an assault on the Federation and as a result, Starfleet was unable to immediately send help for Decade. Ashla, becoming frustrated by the situation and confused by the affection Lieutenant Commander William Eastwood harbored for her, she turned AWOL in an attempt to locate and rescue Decade herself. The Federation then considered her a criminal and pursued her for abandoning her command in war. Lieutenant Commander Eastwood was the main officer sent to find Bogan, and when the chase finally ended both parties were emotionally stressed. Bogan was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. Eastwood in desperation not to lose Ashla, rescued her from the Federation (thus becoming a criminal himself). Both Eastwood and Bogan were later deemed MIA. They rejoined the Liberty in mid-2378 known as Envy Conyers and Clint Eastwood.

Personality:
Normally, Bogan has a quick temper, quite an attitude, and sometimes an acerbic wit toward authority. She has a duty driven sense of discipline. She is more "forgetful" than forgiving, and never openly admits when she's made a mistake. She is wary of forming any kind of relationship; she hasn't had much luck with them. However, since her conviction, Bogan has become quite sullen and dry. Some believe she is quite the Vulcan.

Due to her genetic enhancement she has some telekinetic and telepathic abilities, though she rarely uses her enhancement when she can avoid it because of a promise she made to Admiral Conyers, and the troubles it causes in use. Ashla has the ability to telepathically connect with any person she so desires (sharing everything from mere thoughts to dreams), but only one person at a time. She was first linked to her dear friend Stellan, and then Captain Jim West of the Sunfire, followed by Captain Decade, and is now linked to William Eastwood. Her name, Ashla means "light," Bogan means "dark."

Hobbies and Duty:
She is a martial artist and gymnast. A crack engineer, but she prefers either tactical or the Conn. She was taking Klingon culture lessons from Krol, the former Chief Security Officer of the Sunfire, but his transfer to the USS Washington brought an end to her "education." Occasionally, during her free time Ashla furthers her studies on her own.

History of Pandoran and tactical info on Akira:
In 2161, only a few months before the United Federation of Planets was founded, a group of people led by Mikkel (Ashla's great+ grandfather) Leukosdoron left Earth and founded their own colony on an uninhabited planet they called Pandoran. The Leukosdorons were "voted" by the people as the leaders of their colony and from three hundred years of hereditary rule, they have become recognized as a royal family. Pandoran is one of two M-Class planets in the Emi system, so named after the Japanese word, which means "blessed/rich with beauty." Approximately seven billion people live on Pandoran, five billion on the sister planet, Leukosa, and four million on the far moon of Leukosa, called Doron. There are six star systems including Emi that are controlled by the Leukosdorons, which stretch across approximately 60 light-years. This sector and coalition of these systems is called Akira, after the Japanese word for "intelligent." The total populace of this sector is approximately 400 billion. The Akira sector's border is heavily guarded by static mines, phaser/chroniton torpedo turrets, military platforms, and is frequently patrolled. There are eighty customs checkpoints on the border, which are not easy to bypass or get through, in or out. (DNA checks are a common form of passport.) Communications transmissions are also closely watched. In order to leave the system, they must be sent to a communications transfer station where the signal goes through a series of signal analysis computers, and code and transmission specialists. If the signal is "harmless" it will be passed on to it's intended destination. Any signal that is not sent to the communications station is jammed and will not make it out of the sector. This heavy guard took a great deal of resources to accomplish from within and without the sector, but the Leukosdorons wanted to be separated from the Federation. (Remember that in space, borders are three-dimensional.) Their military strength (strategy and technology) is relatively equal to the Federation with an exception in numbers. The Federation has grown substantially since it's founding, and the Akira sector was eventually surrounded. They are a small island in Federation space except for a narrow corridor, which is riddled with black holes and spatial fissures. The Akira Coalition trades frequently with different races, mostly those that are anti-Federation, and they have formed many alliances with those outside the Federation. They seem to have a growing anti-feeling for the Federation. (Note: Starfleet has been unable to send in intelligence operatives into the Akira sector, and little else is known than what is gained from inside sources like Ashla and Stellan who have gotten out. All tactical information was gained from what Starfleet has been able to observe on the outside. The Akira Coalition seems to be _very_ protective of their privacy.)
After the Liberty's mission to Akira, the Akira Coalition created a treaty of peace with the Federation, and is currently governed by Stellan per Ashla's wish. All hostility and covert habits have ceased.
