Picard's Shakespearean's performances; Riker's concerts; Data's poetry readings.
Even in the grimmest of circumstances, everyone remained professional and human.
-This is what I miss the most in recent stories, the human part.
+This is what I miss the most in recent adventures, the human part.
This is the greatest crew of I have ever met.
@@ -36,21 +36,111 @@ This made him a bit of loner, always skipping late night poker games.
The deck was his entire world.
Picard is a born diplomat, always ready to create peace instead of conflict - be it when dealing with the crew or with treats.
+We've all heard about Picard Maneuver before he joined, but after serving under him the name became synonymous with tucking in shirt.
+Jean-Luc did it all the time.
+
### Commander William T. Riker
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-riker.jpg">}}
+Will Riker was the first officer at USS Enterpise and an amazing right hand of Jean-Luc.
+Much less strict and more risk taking than his superior officer.
+Always ready to banter and play games with the crew.
+An amazing trumpet player (a Jazz fan! I always love meeting fellow jazz fans) and a well known womanizer.
+And, initially, an owner of a magnificent beard.
+
+We still laugh remembering when he proposed Picard to take a day off at Risa.
+Our captain was never fond of lower forms of entertainment, so he was not aware that he went to a burdello-planet equipped with jamaharon, a symbol of sexual interest.
+I'm sure he was at least a bit amused, but he never showed it.
+
+Will, however, was a great tactician known for several invented strategies.
+What made him great was not following the protocol, but the contrary - at one point Data calculated that Riker followed standard practices only 21 percent of the time.
+
+I also fondly remember talking about his undercover missions.
+A real life human chameleon!
+
### Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-geordi.jpeg">}}
+Geordi moved ranks - starting with lieutenant junior grade aboard the USS Enterprise, but always being the person best understanding the ship.
+Whenever we needed to make it go faster than it should - he was there.
+
+He was blind and his visors were the only way he was able to see the world.
+On a few occasions he was able to cure his eyesight, but always rejected the possibility.
+
+La Forge was the best friend of Data.
+
### Lieutenant Tasha Yar
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-tasha.webp">}}
+Tasha was a security officer when we first joined Enterprise.
+We had not many chances to learn about her, due to hear death by end of first year.
+All I can say is that she was a strong woman, fitting for a security officer in the Starfleet.
+
+Luckily we were able to meet her again, a few years later.
+She was alive in another dimension.
+
### Lieutenant Worf
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-worf.jpg">}}
+Worf son of Mogh, was the Klingon from House of Martok who was raised by human family of Rozhenko.
+Proud warrior torn between two races who sworn his allegiance to the federation - in fact he was the first Klingon to serve in the federation.
+At Enterprise, he served as command division bridge officer up till Tasha's death, after which was appointed to be security chief.
+
+Worf is a mixed bag, we were rarely able to predict him.
+As a Klingon, his honor was the most important.
+He was always ready to fight, never thinking about own survival.
+Often we saw him saving a crewmate even before we knew what was going on.
+
+But he was also raised as a human.
+He was living according to Klingon's customs, but the environment he was raised in added a huge doubt in them.
+He was unlike any Klingon I've ever met.
+
+Later on he had a son - a Klingon named Alexander Rozhenko.
+I felt that he was unable to find himself in fatherhood and his father stories were the ones I felt least interesed in.
+The son left Enterprise, and we've never heard of him again.
+
### Doctor Beverly Crusher
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-bcrusher.jpeg">}}
+Beverly was the chief medical officer aboard the Enterprise and the mother of Wesley.
+She was, as it seems, the closest friend to Jean-Luc (sans Riker), and maybe even more?
+Picard was a friend of her late husband and their friendship goes far back.
+
+One time a ghost of her dead grandma possessed her, and it was the most off the wall adventure we had.
+Glad it's over, and I never want to talk about this one ever again.
+
### Commander Deanna Troi
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-troi.png">}}
+Deanna was a Betazoid–Human who served as counselor aboard the Enterprise.
+As a half-betazoid she was capable of extra-sensory empathy, what allowed her to help the crew with loads of emotional problems.
+Another trick up her sleeve was limited power of telepathy, which proved very useful during Picard's negotiations on the bridge.
+
+Whenever her mother visited the ship, Jean-Luc had to hide as he never hid having the hots for him.
+
+She was also very, as you may put it, close with William, often refering to him as *imzadi* ("Beloved" in Betazoidian).
+They also knew themselves from before the journey, so who knows what happened?
+
### Commander Data
{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-data.png">}}
+Commander Data, an android, was our operations officer.
+He was the first android to serve in the Federation.
+
+His primary goal in life was to experience it as a human.
+This pushed him towards music and owning a cat, Spot.
+He was also known for writing poetry, some of which you can find [on my website](/star-trek/tng/data-poetry/)
+
+His brother, Lore, was unlike Data,
+Envious and happy to deceive - always a problem.
### Starfleet Cadet Wesley Crusher
+{{<img-pull-right "st-tng-wesley.jpg">}}
+Wesley, was placed aboard the Enterprise as son of Beverly Crusher.
+Soon after he joined the Starfleed Academy where he was allowed to learn while serving on the Enterprise.
+
+Some other Starfleet Cadets may have hated his guts, saying that he was unfit for service.
+I hover was very fond of him as his adventures - even if a lot of problems aboard the ship were a direct result of his failed experiments.
