Devana Franks was born on stardate 2352 on Betazed to two Terran's Clark and Alice Franks. Devana's mother was presumed dead upon the destruction of the diplomatic ship she was traveling on while traveling through the Prada System during the civil war in the Gamma quadrant. At the age of eight her father decided to return to Earth and continue his work for Starfleet in San Francisco.
At the age of sixteen she was sentenced to four months community service. After completing her medical training she spent some time looking after her father who had fallen ill with cancer. In 237609.21 the cancer went into remission. After much consideration and persuasion from her father and brother she decided to join Starfleet.
During her time in Starfleet she has only had one personal relationship and that was with Lt. Cmdr Mike Weller. Due to unfortunate circumstance Lt. Cmdr Mike Weller passed away leaving Lt. Franks to raise their daughter Marie alone.
- Notes: During her second year studying at the SFU their is a period of a year which she took in absence. With the aid of one of her lecturers she was able to do this without any severe consquence's to her studies. Her lecturer a Dr. Amberson was a member of the Maquise which Devana was as well she dedicated herself and her efforts to more in the field work such as infiltration missions into Cardassian territory and other missions of that nature. She did this along with her fiance at the time Mark Owens ( who was recently killed at her during a mission in which he was the main instigator.) Devana terminated her alliance and membership to the Maquise after being severly injured in a bombing outside of Starfleet headquarters, during which caused her to loose her unborn child.
