Notes
Called "Suzotchka" by her mother.
Spent school years abroad.
Joined Earth Force after the death of her brother Ganya, in 2247. Graduated from Officer
Training School in 2249, after the Earth-Minbari War ended.
Has an intense dislike for telepaths, notably from Psi Corps, probably due to the death of her
mother Sofie.
Was mortally wounded in 2262 when the White Star she was commanding crashed into
debris, but recovered when Marcus Cole sacrificed his own life via an alien device which
transferred his lfe force to her.
After his death, she requested a transfer off of Babylon 5. She was promoted to Captain,
and given command of a new Warlock-class cruiser for a one year shakedown flight.
Relatives/Relationships
Father: Andrei Ivanov
Died in 2258 on Earth from medical complications.
Mother: Sofie Ivanova
Hid the fact that she was a telepath for many years. Forced to undergo injections of
Sleepers to disable this ability. Took her own life 10 years later.
Brother: Ganya Ivanov
Died in Earth-Minbari War.
It appears that Susan is a latent telepath, of low skill but able to sense if she is being scanned and is able
to block cursory scans.
