Reema was born on the Trill homeworld to unjoined parents Azira and Palkot Faero. Both came from a line that had never had a joined member, and were eager for their child to be the first. As such, they raised Reema with extremely high expectations, taking advantage of Azira's positions as a professor at an elite youth academy to push Reema through several highly regimented programs from a young age. Though she flourished under the pressure, her parents' encouragement and celebration of her achievements gave her an inflated sense of worth. She craves recognition to a high degree, believes that everything she receives is well deserved, and expects the best.

She decided to study medicine for two reasons: the first, before the functional connection between host and symbiont always fascinated her, and she wished to understand its physical properties, "why it works," but also because it is considered a challenging specialty, and so mastering it was another way of proving that she was far above average. Reema was accepted to the Symbiosis Institute training program once her medical degree was completed at 23, approximately two years younger than the average graduate, thanks to her mother's academy. She passed the selection process, to much pomp and circumstance from her parents, extremely excited to receive a symbiont and with it, the memories of another life, perhaps one that could soften the blow from her lack of non-academic life. That was not to be, as Poq had never been joined to a host before. | She decided to study medicine for two reasons: the first, before the functional connection between host and symbiont always fascinated her, and she wished to understand its physical properties, "why it works," but also because it is considered a challenging specialty, and so mastering it was another way of proving that she was far above average.

Though her preexisting medical degree might have allowed her to enter Starfleet through a shorter program, she elected to enter Starfleet Academy anyway as an attempt to focus on her lacking social skills and expand her medical knowledge to other species'. Unfortunately, her desire to always best everyone around had her quickly falling into old habits, and she failed to make any particularly lasting friendships. | Though her preexisting medical degree might have allowed her to enter Starfleet through a shorter program, she elected to enter Starfleet Academy anyway as an attempt to focus on her lacking social skills and expand her medical knowledge to other species'.
