    Interview with Lady Alexa Vandercruys

    Tell us about yourself.
    I am a scientist first
    and foremost. Though my family might wish it different, I adore science. It’s precise,
    and there are so many permutations in things that you can repeat tests and get not
    only the same answer but variations on the theme, depending on the test. I love
    exploring the world around me, especially that of the Gamma quadrant, which is where
    I make my home. The crystals found on one particular planet of this quadrant are
    special to my family and to myself as I made my name with how they work and their
    practical applications in science.
    I take my responsibilities
    very seriously, especially those of position within the ranked families of our society.
    I might not always agree with how things are done, but I do believe in caring for
    those without the same advantages. It does mean however, that I do find myself at
    odds with those in power, including the Overseer of the Gamma quadrant.
    What do you think is your strongest point?
    I stand up for those who can’t stand up for themselves. I use
    my abilities and my rank to better others. Perhaps I can be a bit rash at times,
    but my strength lies in the fact I use my mind and my resources efficiently, sometimes
    ruthlessly to protect those who fall under my protection.
    What do you wish was different about your life?
    I miss my parents desperately. Because of what happened in the
    past, I didn’t get much time with them after I was ten years old. They were whisked
    off for their protection and very rarely do I get to see them. Due to that, I often
    wonder what my life would’ve been like to be raised by them completely and not by
    my grandfather.
    If you were given your fondest wish, what would it be?
    It would be to have a Federated Planets government without corruption
    and that truly considered everyone from the least among us to the fully vested.
    I know it’s idealistic, but if I could have that wish come true, it would be that
    one- I think many things would fall to the wayside because there would be better
    balance if we had a clean government where everyone was treated equal and possessed
    equal opportunity.
    Describe a place of perfect refuge.
    I don’t know if I have a perfect refuge.
    There is a conservatory on Hypatia, my home. When I’m there, I relax as it reminds
    me of one of my favourite places on a world I can barely go visit nowadays to protect
    my parents. Otherwise, my only other place of refuge is my bedroom. It’s a place
    where I let go of myself, indulging in my passionate nature.    
    What do you wish I had asked you? Please ask and answer it
    now.
    Ride Me Baby 
    I wish you would have
    asked me about who annoys me the most. The answer to that is easy—Lord Alan Robertson,
    Overseer of the Gamma quadrant. Well, him and his staff. I’ve tried for weeks, no
    months now to get help for those in our quadrant who’ve been starving or promised
    goods from the other quadrants, but have received nothing. Yet, every time I go
    to talk to Lord Robertson, his second-in-command, Trag, brushes me off and dismisses
    me like I’m a useless woman. Treat me like crap, will you? Just you wait. You’ve
    just unleashed something you can’t call back. You won’t deal with one of the foremost
    scientists in our universe? Then you’ll deal with people who won’t take no for answer,
    people who aren’t afraid to steal from the rich and the greedy. You can deal with
    the Pirate Queen, Captain Dria Von Carnelian. Long may she kick your sorry ass.
