!Dr Callista Vornis Born: 3212 Junior Xeno-Structural Analyst, [International Forerunner Foundation] (IFF) [Quadrant 7] Team ([Tuskan Dig] Deployment) !!Background Dr Callista Vornis hails from the orbital megapolis of Boreal Station, New Washington, Greater Federation of Asteel. A prodigy in structural topology and alien materials science, she completed her doctorate at the Pan-Asteel Institute of Applied Gravimetrics on Disney World, with distinction in the theory of non-Euclidean load-bearing configurations. Her thesis, **“Load-Resilient Hyperbolic Meshes in Transdimensional Civil-Architectural Environments: Implications for Forerunner Design Integrity”**, attempted to model how Forerunner constructions might remain structurally stable within variable gravity fields and distorted spacetime. The work earned praise for its mathematical ambition but left many readers—particularly her external examiner—"deeply confused, though oddly impressed". !!Personality Intense, driven, and chronically under-rested, Dr Vornis approaches her work with almost religious zeal. She maintains dozens of holographic models in parallel, often working late into the night muttering equations aloud. Despite her brilliance, she has limited people skills and is famously oblivious to sarcasm. Her quarters at the Tuskan site are rumoured to contain no fewer than 38 separate ceramic mugs, each labelled with a failed energy model. !!Publications (2): “On the Load Path Stability of Self-Healing Vaulted Geometries in Alien Megastructures” – Journal of Advanced Xenostructural Dynamics, Vol. 61. “A Rebuttal to Myself: Limitations of Recursive Gravimetric Simulation in 11-Dimensional Modelling” – same journal, two issues later. !!Current Role (3237) At Tuskan, Dr Vornis is assigned to the deeper chamber mapping and structural modelling team. Her role involves predicting chamber configurations before excavation, using high-risk extrapolation techniques. She is known to deeply distrust corridors that are “too symmetrical,” claiming they “want something.” Her supervisors have quietly agreed never to tell her she's usually right.
