Meidra T'Lora Sinir was born to astrophysicist Sahriv, and Lenore, a writer and historian. She was raised alongside her two siblings on Vulcan for the first ten years of her life, until her parents decided that their children needed to experience other cultures by travel. She returned to Vulcan at age 12 to do her kahs-wan. While this was usually done at age eleven, her father had to convince the elders, one of whom was his own father that Meidra's El Aurien blood made her just as worthy to go through the ritual. She passed, but it gave her a life long hatred of the desert. Her father disappeared during her kahs-wan under mysterious circumstances, and Meidra has never gotten over it. | Meidra T'Lora Sinir was born to astrophysicist Sahriv, and Lenore, a writer and historian.

Something tried to kill her during the ritual, and her father tried to save her. No one believed he was there, so Meidra quickly decided that following the path of logic over truth was not the path she wanted to take. | ||
Her mother spent the next thirty three years taking the three siblings to different worlds, encouraging them to learn as many languages and customs as they could, making it a competition. She seemed calculating and distant to the many beings they met along the way, but still tried her best to protect her family. Her family eventually returned to Vulcan, under Sahriv's father's protection, but Meidra joined Starfleet at age forty six, tired of feeling like she was an outsider with the people who should accept her without reservation. Her grandfather was not pleased. Meidra is fluent in 10 languages, and passable in many more. She sometimes switches between languages when she is nervous, or angry. | Her mother spent the next thirty three years taking the three siblings to different worlds, encouraging them to learn as many languages and customs as they could, making it a competition.
