My Book is Out: City of the Gods
Hey fleeties! Exciting news, my sci-fi novel is now on-sale!!
Check it out on my site: www.patrickgarone.com
When an enormous UFO appears over Mexico City and begins broadcasting instructions in the ancient language of the Aztecs, anthropologist Sandra Ramirez is sent in with a team to establish contact with the ship. Instead, her assignment goes horribly wrong and she soon finds herself drawn into the invader's plans to violently transform our world and its history. Earth's only hope lies with Quetzalcoatl, a reawakened Mexican god who holds the power to either defend our planet or to assure its destruction.
Drawing equally from Mexican mythology and Japanese giant monster stories, CITY OF THE GODS is an original fantasy tale that takes us from modern day Mexico City, to the fall of the ancient kingdom of Teotihuacan, and into the timeless realm of the Mesoamerican gods.

Character Biographical Data
Name: Syvok
Age: 37
Species: Vulcan
Gender: Male
Career Path (Tac/Sci/Eng): Science
Ship Positions Applying For:
If there is no one else more qualified, I would like to be Chief Science Officer. Otherwise, I would prefer to be a relief science officer/ member of the physical sciences department.
Character Questions
Give a brief background of your character. Please try to keep it to a few sentences.
1. Describe your character’s personality.
Syvok was raised by Vulcan parents on Earth, which resulted in an upbringing heavily influenced by non-Vulcan customs and attitudes. Thanks to this, his Vulcan discipline will give way to the occasional sarcastic remark and he has been known to give the odd back-handed compliment. He follows every command to the best of his ability and will often take the initiative if command personnel are otherwise occupied.
2. Describe your character’s appearance.
Syvok is approx. 6 feet tall, has the usual number of limbs (for Star Trek characters, anyway), pointy ears (obviously), and a hairstyle that, while not the Vulcan norm, is fashionably short.
3. Why did your character join Starfleet?
To boldly go… (oops, lemme try that again)
Syvok wanted to follow in his parents’ footsteps and spend his life studying the universe around him. He was not content with mere academic research, however, so he decided to gain practical experience by confronting the universe on its own terms and getting up close and personal with spatial anomalies and temporal distortions. Starfleet provided the perfect opportunity to do this, and it also allowed for the structured environment/ social structure that Vulcans thrive on.
Role-Playing (RP) Experience Questions
1. Have you done any RP in a real-time chat setting? This includes chat rooms and other online games. If you have, please briefly describe your experiences.
So far, my only experience has been with the few sessions of Stonewall RP which I enjoyed immensely. I prefer to keep things in universe at all times, and stay away from hyperbole and random/off the wall developments that completely change the nature of the encounter. I’m familiar with and try to implement the improv concept of ‘yes, and…’ when new story points are introduced. I think everyone gets the most out of RP (and it’s the most fun) when a predetermined structure is adhered to and a consistent story development is maintained.
2. Have you done any RP in a Star Trek setting? If so, please briefly describe your experiences.
See above.
3. Please describe your familiarity with the universe of Star Trek and Star Trek Online. This would include which shows you’ve watched with some regularity and how knowledge of the game’s story.
I have seen all but a few episodes of TOS, none of TAS (whether this is good or bad is up to you), all of the movies (each multiple times), all of TNG, I’d say about 70% of DS9 (currently re-watching via Netflix) and about 90% of Voyager. I own the technical manuals for both TNG (heavy technical info) and DS9 (great background and illustrations).
As for STO, I’ve played every Federation mission except for the STFs, including the latest Breen mini-arc. I’ve read several of the ‘Path to 2409’ entries on the website, and I’d be happy to read more of them if it will help.

Who did the best job at the first fleet "Big Dig"? Don't know, thats because we did not have a FAB. Next time a bunch of us do KA (khitomer accord) and finish it in a lot less time than you ever heard of it being done, post it here. Link to a screenshot of the team perhaps. You just ran a pvp for the fleet, post the results here.Bottom line, this is where the fleet members can crow about what we did. Show any visitors just how awesome we are, and challenge them with our Supreme James Luc Janeway Awesomeness. B)

I doubt they'll take it anywhere though I think every male character on that show is gonna have a gay moment sooner or later. It's just a documented effect of what happens when you drink a specific vamires blood, you're sort of linked unconciously and more attracted to them.

Re: Computer Overheated, Advice Needed
Oh duh, I just realized you meant in the power supply. I thought you meant there was a fuse on the motherboard. :P
Thanks for all the advice everyone. If anything, this at least confirms to me that my initial hunches aren't insane and I should go ahead and try and diagnose the power supply.
