Family/Background

Samantha, or Sam as her family and friends have always called her, is the middle child and only daughter of James and Maria Chandler. Her father is a retired Starfleet Tactical Officer, her mother, a research scientist working with Starfleet. Sam followed into her father's footsteps, much to the exasperation of her mother who wanted her daughter to become a scientist.

Sam is the middle child of five children. Her two older brothers, James Jr. and Garrett, are both in Starfleet. However, Sam does not exactly where they are or which side of the conflict they are on. Her two younger brothers, Sean and Joshua, are much younger than the three older children. Both of them are currently living on Earth with their parents. Since the declaration of martial law on Earth and the beginning of the civil war, Sam has not known their fate.

Sam comes from a long line of Starfleet officers. Most of whom were marines or tactical officers. Both she and her older brothers followed in that tradition. However, Sam is one of the first females to take that route. (Most females in her family take a more pacifist route in Starfleet.)

She was once engaged, but called it off before they could get married. This engagement is not really one she likes to talk about because of the bitter break up, which is a very long story.

She has no children.

Early Life

Sam was born in Virgina on Earth. However, she was not raised there all of her life. Because of her parents' careers, her early life was spent on starships, starbases, and research stations where her parents were stationed. But when she got older, before her two younger brothers were born, her parents moved back to Earth, choosing to give their children a more stable enviroment with which to grow.

When Sam was fourteen, she and her brothers were mountain climbing in the mountains near her home. While climbing, there was a rock slide which caused Sam to fall down a very rocky slope. She survived but had injuries which left a few scars on her body. The accident didn't put a damper on her love of mountain climbing. She still loves to do it any time she can to this day.

Shortly before Sam turned 18, because of her wishes to join Starfleet and follow her father into the tactical field, she appiled to and was accepted to an advanced tactical training school. She decided to do this before heading to Starfleet Academy.
