Lina Iniya Dahlquist was born as second child to Frederik and Dayamai Dahlquist in the Swedish city of Goteborg on Earth. This is where she grew up. Unlike her older brother Anders, who was very private and reserved, Lina was an extroverted and outgoing child. As a child she always wanted to be in the center of the attention. Lina herself had never had the closest relationship to her older brother. Her older brother always seemed to be her father’s favourite child, but Anders died due to a tragic accident when he was eighteen years old. This was of course a blow for the whole family.<br><br>  

This changed her. When she was at home, she read a lot and fled into the world of books. She also started running to get her head free. Towards her father she played tough and put on a hard shell to protect herself. As a teenager she also wanted to spend time with her friends and had fun. She wanted to have a normal life and not always grief. However, her father saw this as a sign that she did not really miss her brother as he did not understand her way of dealing with the loss. This only served to further divide her from her father.<br><br>  

All of this lead to the fact that Lina really started to believe in her inadequacy. She has a lot of self-doubts and has to fight the thought that her father might have been right and she is not good enough at anything. This is the reason why she developed a work ethic that values hard work as she constantly tries to overcome that feeling of being inadequate. She wants to proof it to herself (as well as to her father). She tends to be overcommitting though.

Lina is a social person. On the one hand, Lina can be described as a helpful, warm and empathetic person as she knows what it feels like when nobody really cares about you. When she considers someone a real friend, she is a good sport. On the other hand she also learned how to play tough and does not easily let you know, if you hurt her feelings or not. When she is in a bad mood or if she feels attacked and provoked, she can also turn very sarcastic and harsh. She let’s others know when she does not agree with their decisions or actions.<br><br>

When it comes to her private life or family, Lina is very reserved. She does not easily talk to someone about it.

Lina bases her decisions on personal values. In her childhood she fled into the world of books and read a lot. She dreamt herself to other worlds and places, which was also the reason why she finally decided to join Starfleet Academy. As soon as she had graduated, she left home and her father to join Starfleet. So she went to the Academy at San Francisco. Her father was against it and also made her belief that she would not be good enough for Starfleet. Apart from that, she is quite a spontaneous person and enjoys surprises and new situations, which could also lead her into trouble or even into dangerous situations at times.

Despite her young appearance and size, she should not be underestimated, as she is very athletic and trained in martial arts. This led to her being transferred to the Sec/Tac department of the Gorkon after serving as a science officer on the Oumuamua.
