Rachel Ainsworth

An aggressive captain, Rachel Ainsworth matured into a slightly less aggressive flag officer. With the right mix of boldness and prudence, she presided over the Federation's early victories in the Gabriel Campaign and the ejection of the Sydraxian Hierarchy from Gabriel, establishing a reputation as a solid fighting admiral; indeed, arguably the Federation's best before Nash ka'Sharren lead highly successful campaigns in the Licori War and the Enio-Gabriel battles that ended the Gabriel Campaign. Her subsequent career has been largely more sedate, but the Obsidian Order is rumored to still track her assignments.
