Like her old friend Jean-Luc Picard, it has been some time since Dr Beverly Crusher served as a Starfleet officer aboard a Federation vessel. Unburdened by Starfleet's rules, free to practice medicine as she sees fit, without having to worry more about Prime Directives than patients’ lives, Beverly has found a new role for herself in a galaxy where kindness is increasingly hard to find. Beverly is now part of Eleos, a freelance humanitarian organization that focuses its attention on the grittier frontlines of survival. Together they fly into warzones to help those in need, interposing themselves between vicious gangs and unscrupulous villains and those people and civilizations they would seek to exploit. This older, steelier Beverly Crusher has seen a lot. She’s not just a doctor anymore; she’s a warrior.
