Mercedes Underwood was the Executive Officer onboard the USS Intrepid in the late 23rd century. (Star Trek: The Intrepid Adventures)

Early life before the Intrepid[]

Mercy was born on June 26, 2236 human calendar time on the planet Earth in the city of Nottingham, England in the United Kingdom.

Mercy's controversial multiple assignments[]

It is widely known in Starfleet that both she and Serek have served on multiple assignments in their respective Starfleet careers. The reason being Serek took so many assignments as he felt it would help him gain experience not only as an officer but to gain experience from the various styles of the Starfleet commanders he served under. This is why he did his action and shaped him to be the commander he is today. Mercy followed Serek's example for the same reason. 

Memorable quotes[]
