Mnheia's family relationships have been at best, confusing, at worst, distrustful. As a little girl she was lead to believe she was an extraordinary human, natural daughter of the McGeller family with a younger brother,William Jr. Her father called her Mia. She was given a lot of excuses for her ears and green blood, that only a naive little girl would believe. When the ruse was no longer possible and it was time for her to leave the seclusion of her home and go to school, the McGeller family admitted she was adopted, and claimed her heritage was Vulcan. It was hard to accept that she was adopted, though it did put to rest many confusions. The Vulcan slurs and jokes she endured by her adopted brother and classmates, lead to a fierce defensive reaction, where she defended Vulcan heritage, a defense she later resented taking. As she entered adolescence the Vulcan familiar claim became less and less convincing, largely thanks to her obsession with research, which repeatedly lead her to Romulan history. Finally the truth came out, she was Romulan... Probably. Her father told her everything he knew. Mnheia was born, no discovered, in an abandoned mine in the old Earth Colony Orpheus by Melissa McGeller and her husband William. The McGellers were in the salvage business. She was found by them in a stasis unit. The computer that maintained the unit, once decrypted, revealed a registry for its occupant as one Mnheia Thieurrull Khellian, put in this stasis unit during 2160. Her genetic makeup identified her as a young Romulan girl. Considering her stasis period, this young girl was anything but young. Mnheia was in fact, a Romulan, of unknown age, adopted by her discoverers. Her family life was forever fractured. | |||

He was rather ordinary. Extraordinary ordinary! He was not paticularly smart, athletic, or attractive. Average. He seemed to blend in wherever he went. All of which, Mnheia tended to resent. An odd sibling rivalry, not of hate, but a mixed up kind of competition seemed to exist between them, where competition for normalcy was perpetual, and Mnheia often came in second place. | |||
