Romyana is 1/4 Vulcan, from her mother's side, but she looks human. She has a lot of patience and always assumes the best of people, but due to her Vulcan heritage people may see a volatile and cold side of Romyana come to the surface when she is angered or hurt. Once her trust is lost, it is not regained. Details and thorough preparation are important for Romyana, because this is how she feels she can be ready for anything the universe may throw at her.

On stardate 237308.22 Romyana was born on Earth to a Human father, Tiro, and a half Human half Vulcan mother, Lynne. Shortly after, her parents marry and thirteen months later her brother Kyle was born.

When Romyana and her brother were old enough to go to school, their mother returned to active duty and was assigned as Captain of a newly commissioned starship. This meant the siblings were raised primarily by their father, who at that time had a teaching post at the Star Fleet flight range near Saturn. To her father's disappointment Romyana was more interested in studying the craft's mechanics than flying in it, nevertheless she spent some happy hours with her father taking the trainer craft out for a spin. Romyana studied hard and always did what her parents expected of her, but her brother Kyle was quite the opposite and as soon as he finished school he left to study Art with an obscure artists group on Andoria.

At the age of 20 Romyana joined Starfleet and was accepted to the Academy. At the same time her father took a post at Star fleet Head Quarters and moved to San Francisco. Despite the family home being only a few blocks away from the Academy grounds, she stayed within the campus complex and focussed on her studies.

Towards the end of the fourth and final Academy year, Romyana was given the opportunity to go on a work placement; a Cadet Cruise. She joined the Starfleet crew that was sent to a Deep Space station in need of repair and overhaul more than initially estimated, so they welcomed anyone Starfleet could send them with engineering knowledge. That year on the station, moonlighting as "engineering assistant" as she calls it, is where Romyana started to enjoy being part of Starfleet and she grew up from a naive shy girl to an independent joyful woman.

Romyana returned to Earth briefly for the final exam and graduation ceremony. Her father, mother and brother were there to congratulate her and it was the first time her mother told her she was proud of her.
