Personality and interests

Lyna is full of energy and generally happy and easy to get on with. In social situations she is friendly and enjoys company but is shy around strangers. She is curious by nature, likes harmony, is creative, independent and a good communicator. At times Lyna can be uncompromising and can appear aloof and temperamental. She also bores easily but because of that she has a wide variety of interests including:

• Art and crafting, particularly Arkanese woodcarving.
• Science
• Invention
• Cooking
• Music and Singing
• Dance

Coming from a species that abhors violence Lyna has never been exposed to it and would find it shocking and frightening in the extreme. Like everyone else on the planet, she has three personal discs on her at all times - one personal shield and two blasters, which are highly intelligent and respond to her commands, should she ever need to defend herself.

Her mother died in childbirth when in labour with Bajrayekti leaving her father to raise 5 children with old the help of his own father.
