Alana Devar/Personal History: Difference between revisions

Alana Devar was born in Mestara, Betazed, just outside the Janaran Falls to Betazed Ambassador, Devyn Devar of the 13th House of Peace and Protection, and Arianna Sarrin-Devar, a highly renown Geologist. She was the middle child; Arista, being the eldest, was five years older than Alana. Galwyn, her brother and the youngest of the three, was only one year younger. Her childhood and adolescent history is a bit vague, but records do report that she started to develop empathic abilities at the age of thirteen. Also, added, being born with telepathy (as most Betazoidâ�?��?�s develop this in adolescence), she went through intense Vulcan/Betazoid meditative and controlling techniques, strengthening a young Alanaâ�?��?�s mind, thus allowing her to not go mad with â�?��?mental noiseâ�?��?�. Through these lessons she learned the Vulcan mind meld (imperative for her treatments). She learned how to control her gift, much to her parent's surprise and delight. It was apparent that her telepathic prowess was exceedingly exceptional.  

It was the age of 15 that her and her family supposedly arrived on Vulcan for diplomatic matters, upon the recommendation of the Devar family friend, Tarin (who would later become Alanaâ�?��?�s mentor). Alana immediately fell in love with Vulcan, deciding to reside there after her family left. Of course this was frowned upon, but her wishes were granted. She was enrolled in the Vulcan Science Academy, for all her preliminary studies on Betazed were finished. Alana was a bright young girl, with aspirations of expanding her knowledge the best she could.  

It was there it was said she met a young Vulcan male by the name of Savek (who was undoubtedly Tarinâ�?��?�s youngest son). Apparently, there was some history between the two. Although sheâ�?��?�s never confirmed any of the happenings vocally, it was said that the two bonded, upon the grace and encouragement of both Vulcan and Betazoid families. It was also about this time that her family was off near the Neutral Zone for diplomatic affairs with the Romulans (Alana was 16/17 at the time); needless to say, her parents and siblings were killed, along with a few ships in the massacre. Sufficient evidence was found in confirming the death of both parents and sister Arista. However, no such evidence was found in Galwynâ�?��?�s case; but, given the circumstances, officials deemed his fate as deceased. The news was unsettling, leaving a defenseless and emotional Alana in itâ�?��?�s wake - she even learned the nerve pinch with ill matters in mind, but finally overcame the sadness with Tarinâ�?��?�s help.  

Though she rarely speaks about that, or any other part of her personal life, it has been said that she was never really into science. Savek gave her inspiration upon her entry. When word spread of her familyâ�?��?�s death, she grew closer to the Vulcans who took her little analytical mind in. Ultimately, even through promises, Savek (who became her genetic bondmate) ended the relationship with Devar when she was 17. With child at the time, he graduated the Science Academy in pursuit of Starfleet for ''â�?��?more logical thingsâ�?�?''; he felt unsatisfactory in his bondage to a Betazoid female, and did not feel the connection as strong as it should be. This tore Alana up (who eventually miscarried due to grief and medical ailments); she turned completely cold and calculating, dedicating her life to the sciences and finding a hidden love and gift for it. She graduated at the top 15% of her class with honors.  

Husband of Arianna Sarrin-Devar and father to Alana and her three siblings (including half sister, Carmen Rogers). He was the son of 13th House Female Heiress, Katiya Devar who married a Betazoid artisan by the name of Sorin Gavel (he, of course, took her surname). Devyn grew up in a household with one sister by the name of Raina, who of course if the mother of Sumein. A delegate and Ambassador of the UFOP, Devyn became an influential figure for male Betazoids and fellow delegates alike. Even though he *did* have an affair on Arianna with Wilma (Carmen's mother), Devyn dearly loved his family.  He was known for his passion on the written word and how his speeches rolled from his mouth with such fire and passion. It was from this commitment and dedication did Devyn become one of the most notable figures of StarFleet. However, the man's life was cut short by negotiations held near the Nuetral Zone. Revelations in the Mirror Universe led Alana to the real reason of her father's death -- he was imprisoned and murdered by the Mirror Alliance members.

Was Alana's genetic bondmate, upon the grace and encouragement of both Vulcan and Betazoid families. Her dedication, devotion and near marriage to him came about the time her family headed towards the Neutral Zone for diplomatic affairs with the Romulans (Alana was 16/17 at the time); needless to say, her parents and siblings were killed, along with a few ships in the massacre.  Shortly after, even through promises, Savek ended the relationship with Devar when she was 17. With child at the time, he graduated the Science Academy in pursuit of Starfleet for â�?��?more logical thingsâ�?�?; he felt unsatisfactory in his bondage to a Betazoid female, and did not feel the connection as strong as it should be. Be rest assured, they did not part on the most friendliest of terms (RE: Alana slapped him in the face). This tore Alana up (who eventually miscarried due to grief and medical ailments). Savek is now married with children by a Vulcan woman named T'Panu. Savek is Tarin's (Alana's Mentor and Teacher)son.

Makra and Alana met in the Academy during their first year. Even though they both had trouble adjusting socially, they found friendship in one another and another classmate, Makal Kora. The three even graduated the Cadet Cruise of â�?��?Prexâ�?�? together. Shortly after being posted to the same ship, Alana and Makraâ�?��?�s relationship gradually became a more romantic one and was professed as such during their trip together on Bajor (one where the usually gruff half Klingon handmade a pan of Uttaberry Crepes). They since shared numerous passionate encounters that was a lot more than just physical: but love for Alana.  She had held an attraction for him for several years, but would not admit it fearing the incident with Savek might repeat itself. Enduring many trials (ie: Serpentai Mission, et cetera), and after the wedding engagement of the two, Makra left to find a peace in himself. Having just confronted the testimonies of the true whereabouts and death of her family, Alana recoiled and slumped back into Vulcan mode where she ignored any connection with him. As time passed, Alana noted the error of her ways and sought help with Counselor Tâ�?��?�Anya Rea â�?��?? who was able to assist in melding both sides of Alana together into one. For a time she felt lost from him, and for a time he returned to her though their reunion was short lived. Having told him that she was to be his First Officer upon the transference of the Wallace, the two grew further apart. Does their love strain or will it mend through this obstacle? She uses the term â�?��?Imzadiâ�?�? in reference to Horne Makra, as he was the first to accept who she was and took her in full body and spirit.

Alana met this mysterious, handsome Trill man one trip back to Betazed; it was a time to recover her true course in life and stray away from the Vulcan persona that continued to hamper down the natural responses to the tragedies of her life. They shared hearty conversations and a mutual interest. Come to find out a little later, the man that she had dinner with and an enchanted walk under the blanket of Betazed stars, was the twin brother of her best friend, Idril Mar. She did not realize the irony of the situation until she met him during Idrilâ�?��?�s ritual to connect with previous hosts back on Trill. It was there she gave in to her lust and desire for himâ�?�¦ It was unbridled and instigated by both individuals. He is the father of Alana's child, Keiran, which was the product of their one time tryst. Halla has a special place in the womanâ�?��?�s heart, although it is yet to be seen if the budding relationship will stand the tests of time and details of their affair. He is a traveling writer.
