| Background
|
She was born in 2357 and when she was growing up she pretty much grew
up without adult supervision and she did whatever she wanted to. When she was ten,
her folks died, leaving her in the inept care of a relative, who all but beat her to death.
When her twelfth birthday arrived, she took off.
From that age on, she was a member of a mercenary group called the "Knights of
Darkness." She'd been in many battles with people such as the Cardassians, the Breen,
and the Romulans. She also fought, in a round about way, in the Dominion war with her
group.
It was after the war, after she'd stolen a runabout, after her last job that she was
sentenced to a penal colony. She hadn't been there more than a year when she was
approached by someone from Starfleet Academy. It was a scant few weeks later and
she was registered at the Academy.
The reason she was asked to join Starfleet was so she could use the skills she learned
while with the mercenary group were, such as fighting skills comprised of hand-to-hand
combat, and martial arts forms: Tae Kwon Do, Karate, kickboxing, and Jujitsu. She is
also an expert sniper, and has vast knowledge of explosives. She is also trained in
weapons such as hand weapons and phaser rifles, as well as blades such as kitanas.
She'd learned all this as a mercenary and put them to work for the Federation...and she
said 'yes.' And the rest is, as they say, history.
