Brianna Martin is a Human female who lives in the 24th century and services in the Federation, Starfleet as the Commanding officer of the USS Angelfire (NCC-75025). (Starship Archer)

Early Life
Martin was born on 5th March 2335 at Starbase 39-Sierra along the Romulan Neutral Zone.

Starfleet Academy
Martin entered Starfleet Academy in 2358. While attending, she befriended a Bajoran named Ro Laren. Brianna graduated in 2362.

USS Hood
Her first assignment was the USS Hood (NCC-42296), Robert DeSoto commanding. William T. Riker served as the executive officer for the first two of her seven years on the Hood. Martin was posted as helm officer.

During William Riker's last night on the Hood, he and Brianna had a one-night stand.

The Hood attempted to mediate a dispute on Balarin II in 2364. Brianna made heroic efforts to save some representatives of the meeting when the gathering was targeted by one of the factions. For her actions, she was awarded the Prentares Ribbon of Commendation and promoted to full Lieutenant; once promoted she chose a security position.

In 2369, Brianna earned the Extended Tour Ribbon and a promotion to Lieutenant Commander. She was reassigned to the USS Victory.

USS Victory
Captain Fredrick Holmes gave Martin the job of Chief Security/Tactical Officer.

On stardate 48087.6, she was on a covert mission to observe Dorvan V during a Cardassian reprisal against the Maquis. The mission failed as her shuttle was commandeered by the Maquis. Martin was sent back into Federation space after engaging in hand-to-hand combat with Chakotay, a former Starfleet officer. It was later revealed that the sensor information from her shuttle was sent to Starfleet via Tuvok, an undercover agent.

During a Miradorn raid on a Federation colony, Martin led a security team that routed the attackers. For her actions, she was awarded the Starfleet Citation for Valor in 2371. She was promoted again the following year.

USS Midas
In 2373, at the onset of the Dominion War, she was assigned to serve as first officer aboard the USS Midas under Captain Sanora Camar. The ship served gallantly on the front lines for most of the war.

Brianna's battle record as first officer included the battle of Torros III, Operation Return, the first and second battles of Chin'toka, and several minor skirmishes. In the process, she received the Starfleet Medal of Honor.

In 2375, during the Second Battle of Chin'toka, Captain Camar died and Martin assumed command. The Midas was one of eight Starfleet vessels to survive the encounter. After the battle, she was field-promoted to captain. She served in that capacity for the next three months.
