Dany was born on a Vulcan science colony set up to study archaeological ruins and local wild-life on a moon surrounding Regnal 1. Her father and mother got along well enough and her father didn’t push for her to accept logic too much. But by the time Dany was 15 he became increasingly more persistent and Dany’s mother, Ishani, snapped. She took Dany and got passage aboard a small cargo vessel, the Jen-Tuan, and left Regnal’s moon.
Dany was born to the Vulcan Verok and an El-Aurian named Ishani Rose, both archaeologists on a small moon called Regnal One in the Vulcan Science Colony. During her childhood, Dany enjoyed traipsing after her father through the ruins or sitting by her mother’s knee as she recorded the stories painted on artifacts that they collected.
 
It wasn’t the ideal childhood, her mother and her father were at odds over her upbringing: should Dany be forced to embrace logic and control her emotions or should she be allowed to roam free through the hot jungle much as Dany’s mother did on El-Auria during her own childhood.
 
Eventually the situation came to as close to blows as any situation could. In 2354 when Dany was 15 her mother took her away on the first non-Vulcan transport to visit the colony that year. Dany, despite all of Verok’s teaching, experienced extreme emotional distress over leaving her home and her father.
 
The only other Vulcan on the transport, a traveling priest named Pashek, helped guide Dany enough to exert some form of emotional suppression on her simmering emotions. When the ship docked at Starbase 24, Pashek persuaded the captain of the ''SS Jen-Tuan'' (a ship he frequently traveled with) to take Ishani on as a mission specialist.
 
Under the command of a stern Rigelian, Loso Aral, and her first officer, the Ferengi Gern, the ''Jen-Tuan'' ran cargo of all sorts with the hidden agenda of aiding the Bajorans during the Occupation. When they could they supplied weapons and food and supplies; sometimes they managed to smuggle Bajorans out of the system.
 
Between their “humanitarian” runs, the ''Jen-Tuan'' treasure hunted—using Ishani’s knowledge of archaeology and her collected knowledge of stories from across the galaxy, they managed to accumulate a sizable profit.
 
After the discovery of the wormhole, the ''Jen-Tuan'' began working with the Maquis. The crew was lost when they abandoned ship near the Badlands trying to avoid capture by the Cardassians and their Dominion allies.
 
Dany did not manage to make it to an escape pod and was captured when Jem’hadar who took her into the Gamma Quadrant where she was kept, interrogated, and tortured for information about the Maquis.
 
In 2378 Dany was finally rescued by Captain Jared Oliver of the freighter the ''SS Winding Down'' from the prison where a rogue Cardassian agent was holding her and others because he was hell-bent on recreating the glories of the Obsidian Order.
 
Jared managed to track down Dany’s father on Vulcan and returned his scarred, emotionally and telepathically unstable to him. Together, Verok and Dany embarked on a two-year journey to dry and repair her emotional damage.
 
Dany left Vulcan in 2381 when her father’s traditional philosophies and the unorthodox philosophies of Dany’s mentor Pashek clashed and reopened the rift between them. Still unable to quench her emotions she rejoined the ''Winding Down'' as ship’s counselor.
 
She used their resources to try and find out what happened to her mother and the rest of the ''Jen-Tuan’s'' crew who were listed as missing, presumed dead by authorities when no sign of them surfaced.
 
Her sole purpose in life became to find out what had happened to her family.
 
In 2385 she joined Starfleet at the recommendations of both Jared Oliver and her father, with whom she still has a rocky, yet healing relationship.


Dany stayed with the Jen-Tuan for the better part of 15 years, until an emotional break after the Dominion war had her leaving the Jen-Tuan and heading back to the colony and her father. A short stint in a Vulcan monastery, and a few years on human cargo ship as a paid counselor, and Dany found herself primed and ready to join Starfleet.
