-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.
+Born and raised in Suraya Bay Charlena, named after her father, 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.
+Charlena had always had a love of nature and animals. This came from the beautiful nature around her but also from watching her mother paint and seeing the colours and complexity to create it on canvas from what she could see. Charlena absolutely loved exploring the jungle near the beach she grew up on and finding new flowers and birds to tell her parents about every night.
-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.
+As time went on, and she helped around the hotel her father ran more, she became more intrigued by the technology that existed on other planets due to what she saw of the tourists. She spent hours of her time reading and tinkering with objects to create something new.
-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.
+At the age of 16 she was so heavily invested in technology she started to read into technology-driven species such as the Borg and especially found interest in understanding the system that allowed her to live on Risa with its complex weather modification. She felt disgusted by some of the things the Borg did and what they seemed proud of. She was convinced that somehow she may be able to find a way to prevent the terror they had created by something she could make.
+Once her love of technology started there was no stopping her. Every day she was tinkering with some kind of object turning it into something else. Her long nature walks now included a stop to test out this or that new device. Her favourite of which was a self-rattling rattle for her newborn brother so he would stop crying as he was unable to grip and shake one for himself.
+Whilst she had never massively excelled at school she knew she wanted to be a part of Starfleet once she had fallen in love with technology and managed to get into the academy where she hoped to develop her engineering into more than just tinkering with objects.
+Despite her typical averageness at school she put so much work and focus into engineering she past one of the top of her class and she couldn't be happier about it. She left with an engineering major with an extra minor in xenobiology. She was finally going to start the job she had dreamed of her whole life. And she was going to start on USS Veritas as an engineering officer.
