Lee Carter

Background

Lee Carter comes from a family with a very long history in Starfleet. The earliest Starfleet Carters served aboard the first Daedalus Class Starships. They fought in the Human-Romulan War and participated in countless first contacts.

Lee herself joined Starfleet during the height of the Dominion War. She served in Banshee Squadron, a Peregrine fighter wing of five ships, and very quickly earned her "Ace" pilot status. She shot down several dozen Jem'Hadar fighters and even managed to destroy a heavy Breen cruiser during the last days of that conflict. She has been decorated numerous times for bravery and twice for being severely wounded in action. She is one of the best ship pilots in all of Starfleet. When Banshee's Squad Leader was killed during a daring raid deep into Dominion-held space, Lee took the reigns, and has been Squad Leader ever since.

After the Dominion War, Banshee Squad was sent to various other trouble spots around the Federation to help quell the disturbances, but four years after the War Banshee Squadron was disbanded. Lee then took assignments piloting Admirals and Ambassadors around in in-system shuttlecraft, but that was not proving to be very fulfilling, so when the opportunity came to sign aboard the USS Knight assigned to a long-range exploraratory mission, she didn't hesitate. While aboard the Knight, she lobbied for the reactivation of her old squad, arguing that the starship needed the extra support out on the Galactic rim. Her request was granted.

The Banshees saw heavy action during their short time with the USS Knight, and since then, they are once again being sent to various trouble spots around and near Federation space, most recently to support Supply Base 901 and the USS Hornet beyond the Briar Patch Nebula.

In 2384, during the Mulluran War, Carter distinguished herself and her team by leading them in several missions critical to the overall war effort, and contributed significantly to the Federation's vistory there.

Personality

Lee Carter is a calm and composed leader, and her experiences during the Dominion War hardened her into a fearless warrior. She has a sharp and analytical mind. The current focus of her life is her career, so she doesn't usually expend too much energy on socializing, but she's been known to occasionally go bar-hopping with her friends and smash a few Marine heads.
