Janice Eardman was a human female in Starfleet in the 24th century. In 2367 she was in her early thirties. She was slender and rather tall with honey-colored eyes. Her hair was in tawny curls that were pulled neatly away from her face and caught by a pin at the back of her neck. While she was growing up, her family had a summer home. Janice also spent a lot of time as a student in ruined abbeys or crumbling shrines. She also became familiar with Tamburlaine the Great and other works by Marlowe. With an interest in history, she had also studied the legend of Captain Lucian Murat.
