Alana Devar was born in Mestara, Betazed | Alana Devar was born in Mestara, Betazed just outside the Janaran Falls. She was the middle child of her parents, Devyn and Arianna Devar. | ||
Her childhood and adolescent history is a bit vague | Her childhood and adolescent history is a bit vague but records do report that she was born with full-blown telepathy. As most Betazoid's develop this in adolescence, she went through intense Vulcan/Betazoid meditative and controlling techniques that helped dim the extremeness of her abilities. These lessons strengthened a young Alana's mind, thus allowing her to not go mad with ''mental noise''. Through these lessons she perfected the Vulcan [[mind meld]], which imperative to her treatments. It was apparent that her telepathic prowess was exceedingly exceptional at a young age. | ||
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 Alana'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 Tarin's youngest son. Although she's never confirmed the personal relationship vocally to anyone (other than Horne Makra before he departed for [[ma:Qo'nos]]), it was said that the Vulcan and Betazoid bonded upon the grace and encouragement of both families. | |||
It was there it was said she met a young Vulcan male by the name of [[Savek] | It was also about this time that her family was off near the Neutral Zone for diplomatic affairs with the Romulans near Yadalla Prime (Alana was 16/17 at the time). Needless to say, her parents and sister (Galwyn would prove to have lived years later) passed away shortly thereafter. It was first suspected that the Romulans were responsible for their deaths, but it was later revealed (again, years later) that her father's ship was destroyed by a trans-dimensional rift leading to the Mirror Universe. The news was unsettling, leaving a defenseless and emotional Alana in its wake - she even learned the nerve pinch with ill matters in mind, but finally overcame the sadness with Tarin's help. | ||
When word spread of her family's death, Savek (who became her genetic bondmate) ended the relationship with Devar. With child at the time, he graduated the Science Academy in pursuit of Starfleet for ''more logical things''. His reasoning? He felt unsatisfactory in his bondage to a Betazoid female. This broke Alana's heart. She eventually miscarried due to grief and medical ailments). Turning completely cold and calculating, the teenager dedicated her life to the sciences and found a hidden love and gift for it. She graduated at the top 15% of her class with honors. | |||
