Dr. Samantha "Sam" Mitchell

Background
Dr. Mitchell grew up as Samantha Hoffmaster on a small agricultural asteroid planet where only 4 families farmed the domes. While in high-school she worked with the local paramedic and learned all that she could about medicine. Swearing that she would get out of the family business of asteroid farming, she obtained a scholarship to the prestigious Imperial Medical School on Terra.

As soon as she graduated high-school, she was gone...

Appearance
Dr. Samantha "Sam" Mitchell stands 5'6", has fair skin, bright red hair and freckles.

Education and Training
Being more than three-months journey from her home-world, Dr. Mitchell spent most of her time hitting the books and graduated top of her class at the Imperial Medical School. This allowed her to select a reserach position as her first posting.

During her residency with the Imperial Disease Control Center (IDCC), she discovered a cure for the Aldeberran Plague, a disease with 4:5 morbidity rate, that blights that sector of space every twenty-five years. Her partner and fiancee, Dr. Stan Faustia, stole all the research and presented the work as his alone.

After training and residency was completed, she owed payback time to the Imperial Navy.

Post-Residency
After training and residency was completed, she owed payback time to the Imperial Navy. With the catastropic betrayal by her partner and fiancee Stan Faustia, she requested posting to the fleet. She served in such areas as the Spinward Marches, and with her specialty in Xenobiology she was directed to serve in Imperial Embassies. During her final tour with the Imperial Navy,she was assigned to the Imperial Star Ship Ravnous, a capital class ship. There she met Admiral MItchell, who she would soon marry.

She retired with the rank of Commander at the age of 38.
