History
Born and raised in Suraya Bay, Charlena was named after her father and is used to the typical quiet serenity except for the one time a year where tourism spikes drastically for Lohlunat. It was during these celebrations and her upbringing around tourists that lead to her fascination as to what else was out there in the universe. Despite her intrigue she never truly wanted to leave home as she had fallen in love with the flowers, and had a particular soft spot for sea turtle that as a child her mother used to always point out as they were so difficult to spot with their impressive camouflage.
Sadly at the age of 8 her family and the other inhabitants of Risa had to flee due to a Borg attack which decimated the planet leaving it inhabitable for 7 years before she could return. During this time she developed an interest in technology and engineering in wanting to understand what needed to be done to rebuild and stabilise her home. As time went on she became more intrigued by the technology that existed on other planets and spent hours of her time reading and tinkering with objects to create something new.
At the age of 16 she was finally able to return home to Suraya Bay and it looked like barely anything had changed yet she could never completely shake to feeling that without warning her entire family could no longer exist. Once back on Risa she developed a new love of nature constantly spending time outside whilst working on new small creations. Her favourite of which was a self-rattling rattle for her newborn brother so he would stop crying.
Whilst she had never massively excelled at school after the Borg attack she knew she wanted to be a part of Starfleet and managed to get into the academy where she hopes to develop her understanding of engineering more instead of just tinkering with parts.
