Personal History
Jania is the youngest of three. Only she and her mother have symbionts. Although her father is content without one, her brothers are jealous of her. When she was younger she rubbed it in their faces a bit since they picked on her as a little girl, but these days she just ignores it. She’s still closer to her mom and dad than to her brothers though.
Jania and Nis bonded in an unconventional way: Jania’s mentor in naturalism and geology Yisrah Nis was fatally injured in a rockfall during a hiking trip. Because they were isolated, Yisrah’s symbiont’s only option for survival was to bond with Jania, who was only seventeen. This was psychologically difficult for both of them and caused consternation among the Symbiosis Commission, though they’ve since gone through Zhian'tara to bond properly. Yisrah’s death and a chance encounter with a Starfleet recruiting agent led Jania to join Starfleet as a medic, as she became more interested in helping people than studying rocks.
Although Jania has an adventurous side and loves nature, she can be clumsy. That said, as a medic, she’s quite skilled with her hands. In the academy, she was known for her calming bedside manner, and she was often called to deal with patients who were panicking.
In many cases, she's as fast at accurate diagnoses of injuries without a tricorder as she is with one. She’s by no means a luddite, but if she’s got the time, she prefers to default to low-tech methods of first aid.
