Summary
An experienced starship engineer and designer, Captain Mira Vane leads the engine room aboard Arcturus with grace, compassion, and a sense of humor. After serving for over fourteen years at the Advanced Starship Design Bureau, she took a voluntary reduction in grade from commodore to captain to get out from behind a desk and return to the field. She has a friendly rivalry with her predecessor, Captain Akintoye Okusanya, whom she succeeded when Okusanya took command of the starship Achilles.
