Summary

Captain Blake Bennett is the commanding officer of the starship Arondight. His background is in intelligence and tactical, having served as an analyst, field agent, and starship tactical officer. After spending two years leading Vice Admiral Hayden’s staff, Bennett was given command of the Arondight in mid-2401.

Appearance

Bennett’s most striking feature is the bright blue color of his eyes, which stand out from his dark hair and fair complexion. He is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 186 kilograms with a lean, very athletic build, which he has crafted over the years through twice daily exercise sessions, always alone in his quarters or on the holodeck. His square jaw and angular features give him a classically handsome face, and he always keeps his hair well-styled. He generally does not allow himself to be seen by his crew out of uniform.

Personality

Thanks to a background in Sapient Intelligence (SAPINT), Bennett is well-equipped to both read and manipulate other people. He is charming to a fault, a useful trait to encourage his subordinates to perform well and to wheedle information out of them and others. He is quite assured of his own good looks and isn’t afraid to use flirtation and/or sex to get what he wants, a tactic that earned him the nickname “Casanova” amongst his colleagues at Starfleet Intelligence. Despite some of his outwardly shallower characteristics, Bennett cares deeply about his crew and about Starfleet.

Sexual & Romantic Relationships

To Bennett, sex and romance are both useful ways to learn things about other people and enjoyable recreational activities. While flirtation, sex, and even seduction have long been part of his core personality, he doesn’t necessarily have strong desires for committed relationships or long-term stability in the form of marriage or a family. To him, novelty is what’s enjoyable about starting a new romantic liaison with someone, more than any excitement of the potential for that encounter to turn into something more. With that being said, he has been having an “affair” (their term, despite the relationship being licit) with Lieutenant Cooper Robinson since 2399, a relationship the two have kept secret in the interest of their careers. Their relationship is highly flexible and fluid, varying in intensity and commitment on a near-daily basis, as they share very similar attitudes about relationships.
