Hsina was taken in by brother Uday, who was something of a nut-job, but a very tough nut-job who made his living as a professional boxer and an amateur drunk.

THAT WAS SIXTY-THREE-YEARS-AGO.  The six survivors went into stasis, certain that someone would find the drifting, derelict starship.  They did, 60-years-later, but only one of the six stasis chambers remained active, that of Dr. Hsina Amman.  Hsina woke up at Starbase 118 OPS, then spent a few weeks at Star Fleet Academy for a direct commission course (she did not attend a regular academy) and finally posting as an ensign on the USS Discovery-C.

Finally, while Hsina is unbalanced and not quite right, she is very good at hiding it.  She actually suffers from a genetic disorder that makes her completely psi-null.  She has absolutely zero psionic potential where most humans have some, and while that means she can never learn some of the mental disciplines like walking on hot coals and the like, it also prevents empaths and telepaths from getting any reading at all, though a Vulcan mind-meld, which is a direct physical connection, will get a reading, but only if done intrusively as she is incapable of consenting as that involves opening up a part of the brain that simply doesn't work.  There have been two instances, however, when somehow (Hsina doesn't yet understand it) two telepathic/empathic individuals were able to get something of a fuzzy-peripheral read on Hsina, while at the same time Hsina heard their thoughts as well.  Defective hardware is Hsina's best guess.

Since waking up, Hsina has been promoted quickly through the ranks on USS Discovery despite her rather abrasive personality, eventually serving as the chief science officer and more recently the chief of security.  In her months on board she has almost caught up with the last 60 years of technology, at least when it comes to operating modern computer systems, and has earned a reputation as an unfeeling b!tch, but one who gets results and will go to extremes to protect her shipmates.

For her penultimate mission on board the Discovery C, Hsina and her shipmates spent some time on the planet Kjenta II, a high-gravity planet with similar physiological effects to Ba'ku inside the Briar Patch.  While the effects varied by individual, the older one was physically, the more their physical age reverted while on Kjenta II.  The effect is such that the longer one spends on the planet and more one exerts oneself while there, the more pronounced the effect, which in its end state would have a person age backwards (or forwards normally if very young) until they reached their physiological prime.  To make Hsina's age more complex, she essentially got ten-years-younger in her time on Kjenta II, and while she was born 107-years-ago and has lived for 47 years, she is physiologically 37-years-old.

Hsina's most recent departure from Pisces 4 was to investigate a Yeltan ruin she learned of in the library.  The planet was inhabited by similarly primitive people to those of Pisces 4, however when Hsina touched the surface of the obelisk she went to see, she learned very quickly and the hard way that the device was not a mere ruin, but a spatial gate that transported her instantly to a strange and very distant space station in the previously uncharted Danubae system.
