I Love How Sopek Is Like Giving The Ultimate Middle Finger To His Mother And Father By Doing The Starfleet

Head astrophysicist Lt. Sopek, son of Stonn. Read his bio here (but you probably already know who he is 🥴)

The crew is officially all here!! We’ll be making posts of the main groupings of the crew, and I’m going to post some comics soon providing further context for some of the Star Trek: Eridani lore^TM , plus some more Sopek goodness

THE AO3 site for STAR TREK: ERIDANI is open for you guys to sign up to make your own stories/art/whatever based on the episode plots, or just to read the lore/posts on the collection the creator @purple-iris made (plus some artwork from me!) !!!

This AO3 work aims at centralizing all information regarding the character biographies and episode synopses for the Star Trek: Eridani fan project, a for-fans-by-fans series. This series will be hosted as an opened prompt meme challenge, with the prompts being the various episode summaries written by purple_iris_bloom ( @purple-iris ) and ghostofgoldendays ( @parallelfallout) , the co-creators and hosts.

If you wish to read the characters biographies, meta analysis and episode synopses more easily on AO3!

It also aims to be a ressource/reference for anyone wanting to start thinking about writing or creating something for the Eridani Project...

Dr. Malachi Cohen, ship psychologist

As the ship’s psychologist, Dr. Cohen had one of the most important jobs on the Eridani. At least, that was what he told reluctant patients. He was known to use a direct approach, being a very good listening ear and an expert at encouraging self-reflexion and the development of proper coping mechanisms among crew. A very pragmatic man, he did not believe in space madness or other superstitions, which he often joked as being ironic, given that he was a practicing religious man. Inside and outside of his work, he tended to use a lot of sarcasm, using it to diffuse the atmosphere as well as blowing off steam when needed. 

As a psychologist, it was his professional opinion that everyone could benefit from counseling and therapy, and he attempted many times to convince even the Vulcan crew members to attempt it at least once, proposing a logical approach reminiscent of the teaching of Surak used by mind-healers in Gol. It was one of his greatest sources of frustration on the ship as Captain Saavik and Sopek repeatedly refused. 

While being a friendly person, his unique line of work made him stand apart from a lot of the crew, mainly due to patient confidentiality, and he struggled with that loneliness. Despite that, he felt too fulfilled by his work on exploration ships to change careers and opted to consult a fellow therapist himself via holocalls.
