 ===Before Starfleet===
-Carys is tight-lipped about her childhood; growing up during the Occupation left scars both physical and mental, and she rarely speaks of her time on Bajor to anyone. She left Bajor almost immediately after the Cardassian withdrawal and effectively vanished from records for two years — a time period during which Federation Security suspects, but cannot prove, that she was a member of the Maquis.
+Carys is tight-lipped about her childhood; growing up during the Occupation left scars both physical and mental, and she rarely speaks of that time to anyone. She left Bajor almost immediately after the Cardassian withdrawal and effectively vanished from records for three years. While some suspect she had contact with the Maquis during this time, it's unknown if she was active in her support or simply aware of them.
-Her return to Bajor was a brief one. Already injured, she had barely been aboard Deep Space Nine for a day before she was admitted to its medical bay after a brutal and very nearly fatal assault. The injuries were so severe that she was transferred to a Starfleet hospital on Trill for extensive surgery and rehabilitation. Her recovery involved physical, mental, and emotional care and support — and the constant interaction with members of Starfleet wounded in the {{ma|Dominion War}}. She came to realise that the universe was bigger than her personal tragedies and hatreds, and when she was suitably recovered, enlisted in Starfleet.
+Her return to Bajor was a brief one. Already injured on arrival, she had barely been aboard Deep Space Nine for a day before she was admitted to its medical bay after a brutal and very nearly fatal assault. The injuries were so severe that she was transferred to a Starfleet hospital on Trill for extensive surgery and rehabilitation. Her recovery involved physical, mental, and emotional care and support — and interaction with several Starfleet officers also recovering from trauma. She came to realise that the universe was bigger than her personal tragedies and hatreds, and when she was suitably recovered, enlisted in Starfleet.
 ===Enlisted in the Fleet===
-At first struggling with the discipline and protocols of Starfleet, she settled in with the help of a few new friends and soon distinguished herself in the conflict against the Dominion, earning herself commendations and decorations for her actions, and a battlefield promotion to Chief Petty Officer. It was after the the {{ma|Treaty of Bajor}} that Carys' commanding officer suggested to her that she should embrace her potential and apply to the Academy and train as an officer. It took a little while for her to agree, but with the recommendation of her CO, she applied and was accepted.

It took a little while for her to consider and agree, but with the recommendation of her CO, she applied for officer candidacy and was accepted.
 ===The Academy===
-Initially beginning a security major, she discovered that she had a particular, and far greater, interest in the psychology courses she was required to study. After a great deal of discussion with her tutors, she changed her major to counselling and her minor to science, specialising in anthropology.
+Initially following in the same steps as her enlisted career and choosing a major in security, she discovered that she had a far greater interest in the psychology courses she was required to study. After extended discussion with her tutors, she changed her major to counselling and her minor to science, specialising in anthropology.
 ===An Officer in the Fleet===
-Over her time in the fleet, she has developed a specific speciality in xenopsychological anthropology, and has often been called upon to offer advice and input into first contact situations. Though she has no particular aspirations to command, she has undertaken the {{ma|Bridge Officer's Test}} in order to contribute beyond her counselling role, and occasionally takes the Bridge during Beta or Gamma shifts.
