Relationships

---

Platonic

sh'Shar has, at least in the past, proudly proclaimed she has no friends and views them as a liability. She is secretly fearful that she might hurt someone with her actions, so prefers to keep people at arm's length.

That isn't really true, however...

• Alleran Tan - Often at odds, fighting as often as they were friends, Mikali was a constant thorn in Alleran's side. Despite that, due to their shared service history, they had... something. She called him "spots" and he called her "blue".

• Luna Walker - "Loony Luna" and sh'Shar developed a fast friendship since the fiery Romulan/Terran woman came on board the USS Independence-A. Walker mentioned to her that she, too, had spent time behind bars; almost certainly a contributing factor. Luna was later given care of her child, Benna sh'Shar.

• Benna sh'Shar - Despite all the odds, Mikali's daughter has grown up to be a smart, inquisitive, intelligent, grounded, sensible smart young girl who has her whole life ahead of her, *and* is someone who cares for her mother. Her growth inspired similar growth in Mikali, although how long that will remain is anyone's guess...

Romantic

sh'Shar has only "dated" a few times in her life and such attempts end in disaster. Wild and unpredictable, sh'Shar is a handful to even be a casual acquaintance with.

She enjoyed a stable, prolonged romance with S'Acul Aveunalliv aboard the USS Avandar which she found both rewarding, fulfilling, and a lot of fun. She misses that cat but realises that she was burdening him down and that he had to go do his own thing.

During a wild celebration after a successful mission, she drunkenly kissed Alleran Tan. He wasn't the only one, but he was the one she passed out on top of in the Pilot's Ready Room. Nothing else happened other than that, but she does occasionally tease him about "sleeping together".

The only person of particular note here is Jake Hartmann, a fellow pilot. She has mentioned, off and on, feeling genuine feelings for him that go beyond the physical.

Pre-Starfleet Criminal Record

---

Mikali was born to four abusive parents. She does not discuss the nature of this abuse, but she once told Councilor Avandar that it was "... in every way a small child could be abused".

She ran away from home at thirteen, immediately joining a Ferengi gang. She was bought into the world of light drugs and petty crime at first, heavy drugs and smuggling not long after. Most of these activities were conducted aboard an expansive Ferengi ship- very little, again, is known of her time aboard except that she stood up for the small contingent of female crew, insisting (at disrupter-point) that they were allowed to wear clothes.

Eventually, the ship was apprehended by Bajoran authorities smuggling Ketracel past the Federation blockade when the Dominion's supplies ran thin (after the wormhole was laid with cloaked mines).

Mikali was sentenced to six years in prison but managed to bargain herself down to two years by demonstrating a provable chemical addiction, plus agreeing to serve as an informer for six months.

She joined Starfleet soon after being released (a condition of her parole), although her application was rejected several times due to her history.

Post-Starfleet Criminal Record

---

Lost and displaced after the decommissioning of the USS Avandar, Mikali relapsed. She spent six weeks in prison for possession of a personal-use quantity of restricted chemicals, followed by twelve weeks in rehabilitation.

She received a "General Discharge" from Starfleet, avoiding the dreaded "Big Chicken Dinner".
