Character: Pavel Andreievich Chekov Fandom: Star Trek (Movie XI) Character Notes: History: Alternate universes make my sadly vast knowledge useless, so…
Chekov is the navigator of the USS Enterprise. Pretty much nothing is revealed about Chekov’s past in the movie. What is known is that he’s a seventeen-year-old Russian math whiz. He was the youngest cadet to ever win the Starfleet Academy Marathon, and is considered an expert in theoretical physics. The official website also states that he was the top of his class in “Stellar Cartography” and “Transporter Theory.” Throughout the movie, we’re given moments that reaffirm these claims. Such as the rescue of Kirk and Sulu, and the calculations that allowed the Enterprise to become invisible to the Romulan mining ship.
Personality: If Chekov could be summed up in three words, they’d be intelligent, enthusiastic, and awkward. He’s good at his job, and very determined to prove himself capable despite his age. He takes failure personally, and uses it as motivation to improve. However, as is common with young geniuses, he finds it a bit harder to interact with the people he works with on any level aside from professional. The age difference is the most likely suspect for this, with the added fun of maturity and intelligence not quite synching up. That’s not to say he’s socially inept, but it is more of a struggle for him.
Other: If accepted, I’ll be stealing bits of Chekov from Star Trek: The Original Series, as it shows him as a more fully developed, though essentially the same, character. By which I mean it shows faults. For instance, in the show he often gets historical facts wrong. I’d like to continue that for, math genius though he is, he isn’t an expert in history.
Also from TOS is his inability to fight. He’s more willing to fight for his crewmates than himself, and while he’s not very good at it, sheer enthusiasm allows him to claim victory from time to time.
First Person (entry type): Ya ne ponimaju. The computer should not be picking up this signal. The magnetic fields alone…well it is very unlikely. I was told not to worry, and I am not worrying, but this is weird, yes? And if it is harmless as I am told, then no one will mind if I look.
So this is a…what is this? Have I contacted a foreign command? I didn’t mean to, but the signal was unprotected and there was no encryption. It does not look very formal, so I do not think it is Starfleet but-- Oh! The captain will wish to know what you are called! I don’t think the name I’m seeing is the correct one. Pardon me, I am Ensign Pavel Andreievich Chekov of the USS Enterprise. However, I am off duty, so this is not an official inquiry.
Pavel Andreievich Chekov occasionally found climate control to be the bane of his existence. It didn’t break on the Enterprise, because she was a good ship. There were a few hiccups in the beginning, when things slowed down enough after the Romulans for them to notice something as trivial as comfort. Overall, however, things ran smoothly and the entire ship was kept at a pleasant temperature. And that, ladies and gentleman, was what plagued Chekov on odd nights when his brain was too busy crunching equations to sleep.
Back in Russia, where the snow was whipped about by sharp winds and never disappeared completely, it was never so warm. It made little sense to Chekov that space would be warmer. He missed the cold, and all the little ills it brought with it. The numb fingertips and aching breaths that had marked his childhood were no longer within his reach. Seasons didn’t come and go in the Enterprise’s halls. Occasionally he’d give in to temptation and change his room’s settings, but safeguards kept it above what Chekov wanted.
Bypassing the safeguards would be foolhardy and, more importantly, it would be flagged in the system and he would have questions to handle. Chekov wasn’t terribly eloquent on a normal day, he cringed to think of how he would sound as he tried to explain that he was homesick. It would be a feeble reason at best and he certainly didn’t want to chance his place on the ship. Starfleet already viewed Chekov as young, and there was no reason to remind them of how young he actually was with a childish stunt like that. For as much as he missed Russia, Chekov thought he would miss the Enterprise just a bit more. So he endured the steady warmth and the stable temperatures, and at night he dreamt of ice and cold.
