Patri Jia Kom: Difference between revisions

Patri's parents were taken as slaves by the Grendallai on stardate 237603.01, while she and the fragmenting family lived in the New Cyprus Colony, near the [[Ithassa Region]].  She was schooled for a year afterwards at a boarding school.  On the return of her parents, it was discovered that the Grendellai slavers had implanted her with a defective tagging device.  That device damaged her brain resulting in a partial emotive-engrematic memory loss that rendered her unable to recognize her parents as caregivers proper.  She had a familiarity with them but she was unable to emote toward them as she had been able in the past.

For a while Patri participated in research experiments on Science Station Tango Sierra.  It is suspected that research was conducted into Patri's emotive-engramatic memory loss (see detail in psych evaluation below). 

 

Patri tends to carry a strong sense of guilt at her inability to relate to her parents.  This is tempered by an anger at their inability in turn to rectify their fledgling marriage.  She also has a strong desire to exact revenge against the [[Grendellai]] for depriving her of her ability to relate properly to her parents. 

 

Further consequences of the defective tagging device occasionally surface, resulting in a generally unstable psyche.  Patri often finds it difficult to attach emotional states to external objects or referents, out of a more or less philosophical fear that the implications of the Grendellai botched tagging attempt were that emotions and external objects have no inherent relation to one another.  Thus Patri is often in a cloud of free-floating emotions that she is unable to control and thus tends to act out of more immature impulses, playing the trickster.
