Skadi Howard was born in Oslo, Norway on December 8th, 2374. Her parents were Starfleet scientists onboard a Galaxy class starship. The Borg attacked the ship while scanning a rare nebula formation near the Galactic core. Many of the crew were killed or assimilated, including little Skadi and her parents; she was only five years old. After the assimilation in 2379, Skadi was matured in a maturation chamber and indoctrinated to be a medical drone. Along with her adapted physiology and implants, her nanites were coded to allow her to age much slower, along with the rest of her fellow Borg.
Skadi was liberated in 2392 after a sovereign class starship crippled her cube and boarded the vessel in order to liberate the drones living there. After being reunited with her family in Norway, she was evaluated by the liberation commission and deemed to be intelligent and well versed in engineering, tactical, and medical theory. After a few short years of assimilation back into human culture and a brief stay of tutoring at the academy, she graduated and took the oath of service.
Skadi was promoted many times throughout her career, since being thrust into service at the age of 24; she reached Captain at the age of 38. After being captain for one year she was commissioned to pilot an experimental Chimera Heavy Destroyer, the USS Murmansk. Due to her intimate knowledge retained of basic engineering theory, and her education in advanced tactical theory was well as aptitude towards starship combat, she was selected from a small pool to command one of these vessels.
She is currently stationed to guard the Beta Ursae Sector block from True Way resurgence and Gamma Quadrant invasions. She enjoys flying her Aeon Timeship replica shuttlecraft, which she helped build to compete in shuttle races all over the quadrant.
