| Physical Description | She is compact and athletic rather than imposing, built for endurance over brute strength. She stands just under average height, with a lean frame shaped by long-distance running, obstacle courses, and the quiet attrition of search-and-rescue work. Her features are soft at rest, pale skin and light eyes lending her an almost gentle appearance that often leads others to underestimate her. That impression rarely lasts. There is an economy to her movements and a steadiness in her gaze that speaks to discipline and experience rather than aggression. Her blonde hair is usually kept practical and unadorned, and she carries herself with the calm confidence of someone who trusts her body to do exactly what it has been trained to do. A small mulberry leaf tattoo rests above her hip, a private mark tied to the Moreau family crest. |
Family
| Father | Xavier Moreau Mayor of Lunar Falls A career civic administrator shaped by a family history of military service. Principled and reserved, he raised his children with a strong emphasis on responsibility, public duty, and quiet competence. Though he does not always understand Adélaïde’s choice to serve on the front lines, he respects it, trusting her judgment even as he worries from afar. |
|
| Mother | Emily Moreau (ne Conners) Lawyer A practising lawyer whose career has centred on advocacy and institutional accountability. Thoughtful and perceptive, she raised her children to value empathy alongside responsibility, believing that service without compassion was hollow. Emily remains a steady emotional presence in Adélaïde’s life, offering quiet counsel and an unwavering reminder that every life has worth. |
|
| Brother(s) | Pierce Moreau The eldest of the siblings, serves as a Major in the Marine Corps JAG branch. Analytical and principled, he believes deeply in the rule of law as a means of protecting lives. Though he often worries about Adélaïde’s frontline role, he respects her discipline and judgment, recognising in her the same commitment to service expressed through different means. Charles Moreau A historian whose work focuses on social memory and the lived experiences often lost to official records. Thoughtful and introspective, he offers Adélaïde a quieter form of support, helping her frame her work not as heroics, but as part of a longer human narrative of care, loss, and endurance. |
|
| Sister(s) | Lt. Cmdr. Hannah Moreau Adélaïde’s elder sister, serves as a Lieutenant Commander and Chief Science Officer aboard the USS Calcutta. Analytical and composed, Hannah represents a different path of Starfleet service, one grounded in discovery and prevention rather than frontline risk. The sisters share a relationship built on mutual respect and unspoken concern, each understanding the other’s choices even when they would not make the same ones themselves. |
|
| Other Family | Gen. Xavier Moreau Snr. Adélaïde’s grandfather, was a senior Marine Corps commander whose career shaped both policy and doctrine. Known for his measured leadership and insistence on accountability, he instilled in his family a belief that service carried moral weight as well as authority. Though reserved in his praise, he recognised in Adélaïde a form of courage he deeply respected, one rooted in protection rather than conquest. |
Personality & Traits
| General Overview | She is defined by quiet resolve rather than overt intensity. She is observant, steady, and deeply practical, preferring action to explanation and consistency to recognition. In high-stress environments, she remains composed and methodical, focusing on what needs to be done rather than on how it will be perceived. She does not seek authority, but naturally earns trust through reliability, restraint, and a clear sense of purpose. Interpersonally, Adélaïde is respectful and measured, offering support without intrusion and confidence without dominance. She listens more than she speaks, and when she does speak, her words tend to be concise and deliberate. While not emotionally demonstrative, she possesses a strong sense of empathy that guides her decisions, particularly in situations involving loss or uncertainty. She values competence, integrity, and accountability, both in herself and in others. Beneath her professional calm lies a persistent drive to ensure that no one is abandoned or forgotten. This conviction shapes both her strengths and her limitations, pushing her to persevere even when outcomes are unclear. Though she avoids the spotlight and resists sentimentality, Adélaïde carries a quiet moral certainty that anchors her actions, reflecting a lifetime shaped by service, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to protecting those who cannot protect themselves. |
|
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Adélaïde is defined by her steadiness under pressure. She remains clear-headed in chaotic environments, able to assess risk, terrain, and human behaviour without becoming overwhelmed. Her training as a search-and-rescue specialist has honed both her physical endurance and her situational awareness, allowing her to operate effectively in confined, hazardous, or emotionally charged conditions. She possesses a strong ethical compass, shaped by family and experience, which guides her decisions even when outcomes are uncertain. Quietly observant rather than overtly assertive, Adélaïde earns trust through consistency and follow-through rather than authority or charisma. She works well within teams, respects expertise outside her own discipline, and has an instinctive drive to protect those who cannot protect themselves. That same sense of responsibility can become a liability. Adélaïde struggles to disengage when lives are at stake, often pushing herself beyond reasonable limits in the belief that one more effort might make the difference. She can be emotionally reserved with her own needs, prioritising mission success and the wellbeing of others over rest, recovery, or reflection. While disciplined, she is sometimes reluctant to escalate concerns or seek help unless absolutely necessary, preferring to shoulder burdens quietly rather than risk becoming a distraction. Her tendency to internalise loss means that cumulative trauma affects her more deeply than she lets on, and she occasionally measures her own worth by outcomes beyond her control. In situations where there is no clear solution, her persistence can border on stubbornness, making it difficult for her to accept that some losses are unavoidable. |
|
| Ambitions | Adélaïde has little interest in rank or recognition, measuring success instead by lives preserved rather than missions completed. Her ambition is to continue refining her skills as a search-and-rescue specialist, ensuring that when someone is lost or overlooked, she is capable of finding them. Over time, she hopes to pass that mindset on to others, helping shape a culture where no life is written off too quickly. |
|
| Hobbies & Interests | Outside of duty, Adélaïde maintains a small, deliberate set of routines rather than a wide range of pastimes. She runs regularly, favouring long, steady distances over competitive pacing, often listening to understated instrumental or atmospheric music that helps her regulate pace and focus. From a young age, she has played the piano and remains an exceptional musician, approaching it with the same discipline and quiet concentration she brings to her work. In less formal settings, she is equally comfortable at a keyboard, adapting her training with ease rather than flourish. She makes use of chapels and quiet spaces aboard ship, not out of rigid religiosity but as places for reflection and grounding. Adélaïde has a genuine curiosity about new species, environments, and rescue methodologies, often reading technical or scientific material related to survival and disaster response in her off-hours. As a subtle tie to home, she occasionally cooks simple Alsatian dishes when time allows, gravitating toward familiar flavours as a way of reconnecting with family and routine without ceremony. |
| Personal History | Adélaïde Moreau was raised in Strasbourg in a family where public service was treated as a responsibility rather than an aspiration. With a father in civic leadership, a mother in law, and a grandfather whose military career shaped generations of family values, she grew up understanding duty as something practical and ongoing. While her siblings gravitated toward institutional or academic paths, Adélaïde was drawn instead to roles where help was immediate and tangible. As a child, she was observant and quietly persistent, more inclined to notice what others overlooked than to compete for attention. Enlistment Rather than pursuing an officer commission, Adélaïde chose to enlist in the Marine Corps, believing she would be most effective closer to the point of need. She deliberately selected the search-and-rescue specialisation, drawn to its combination of physical endurance, technical skill, and moral clarity. Her training reinforced her natural steadiness under pressure and her ability to operate in confined, hazardous, or emotionally charged environments. During this period, she developed a strong preference for preparation, teamwork, and follow-through over improvisation or heroics. USS Bulldog Adélaïde’s first assignment aboard the Bulldog introduced her to the realities of sustained SAR operations in unstable conditions. During a prolonged recovery mission following a structural collapse in a remote settlement, she volunteered to remain inside a compromised structure well past the recommended withdrawal window to confirm that all life signs had been accounted for. The search yielded no survivors, but her insistence prevented a premature extraction and ensured that no one was left unrecorded. The experience solidified her belief that responsibility did not end when outcomes became unlikely. USS Roosevelt Her subsequent posting to the Roosevelt broadened her operational exposure to large-scale disaster response and environmental hazards. During a multi-day evacuation following tectonic instability on a frontier world, Adélaïde coordinated repeated extraction runs under deteriorating conditions, maintaining focus and discipline as fatigue set in across the team. When command elected to cease surface operations, she ensured that all remaining casualty locations were documented and handed over cleanly, reinforcing her reputation for composure, thoroughness, and respect for process even under emotional strain. USS Pioneer Adélaïde transferred to the USS Pioneer with a clear sense of purpose and little interest in personal advancement. Aboard the ship, she has participated in multiple high-risk ground operations and rescue deployments, including subterranean and hostile-environment missions where uncertainty, limited visibility, and sustained threat tested both endurance and judgment. During these operations, she demonstrated calm tactical awareness, concise communication, and an ability to function effectively within a team under extreme pressure. In the aftermath of such missions, she remains pragmatic and grounded, focusing on recovery and accountability rather than reflection or recognition. Her service aboard the Pioneer continues to reflect a career defined not by accolades, but by consistency, persistence, and an unwillingness to disengage while lives remain unaccounted for. |
