Background: Born in 2299, to parents who were unknown at the beginning of the series. She was found in a cardboard box on the doorstep of Doctor Gerard Lloyd when she was presumably less than a year old, with no note or any other identification. He took her in and named her Andi, after his parents Andrew and Mandi. He gave her no middle name, because he had always disliked his middle name “Handel.” When she was six years old, the Doctor’s sister died, and his nineteen-year-old nephew Eagle Crash came to live with them.
When Andi was ten, the Doctor got a request from an old friend of his to sign up as first medical officer on the starship Surveyor, and he did it, taking Andi with him. The two of them have lived there ever since, working together and participating in the many adventures of a starship.
