Finally Irina suffers from many side-effects of her long exile on Kjenta II. Kjenta II was a high gravity planet with unusual and harsh light from the nearby red dwarf Kjenta star. She is completely color blind and highly light sensitive due to the complete fusing of the cones in her eyes. She also suffered fairly severe nerve damage to her left side that while mostly repaired, was not and never will be perfectly so. This results in severe cramping of her left hand if she tries to do any fine motor control and has made it almost impossible for her to play the violin. Irina is also exceptionally strong, the benefit of living 2.2 centuries in almost three times earth normal gravity. She has essentially the same level of physical strength as a strong Klingon or a weak Vulcan. Lastly, she is VERY rough around the edges after 220 years living in essentially a post-apocalyptic world. She holds many normal customs in quiet disdain and was sarcastic, borderline insubordinate during a recent inspection of the USS Vigilant. | Finally Irina suffers from many side-effects of her long exile on Kjenta II.

Irina is an expert sniper, with expert something of a modest understatement. She has perfect hand-eye coordination and is still the only non-synthetic life form to ever be recorded with a perfect 100% marksmanship score on all Starfeelt, marine and even Marine Force Recon/Sniper qualifications. Simply put, | Irina is an expert sniper, with expert something of a modest understatement. She has perfect hand-eye coordination and is still the only non-synthetic life form to ever be recorded with a perfect 100% marksmanship score on all Starfeelt, marine and even Marine Force Recon/Sniper qualifications. Simply put, Irina can hit anything with any weapon so long as she can see it and it is within the weapon's range. She remains the only human to ever, repeatedly hit birds in flight at 500 meters using iron sights with projectile or beam weapons (she can do it with both, unfailingly). While the federation does not and never did condone assassination, Irina was trained nonetheless to take head-shots at hyper-extreme range; a skill she put to excellent and frequent use on Kjenta II. | ||
Her innate and natural shooting talent was reinforced during 219 years on the harsh planet of Kjenta II, where the USS Columbia away team were under constant attack. Irina's record was a head shot with a .50 calibre sniper rifle at 3.6 kilometers with a telescopic (optical) sight, which while unconfirmed, is the longest sniper shot ever recorded with a hand-held projectile weapon. | |||
Strangely and out of sync with her history and branch, Irina is also extremely gifted at math. While she only has the normal 22nd century Marine Academy Bachelor of military science degree, she studied advanced mathematics under the legendary Dr. Lan Ngoc Treng during her 219 year exile on Kjenta II and is essentially equivalent to a doctor in applied. mathematics. She also learned, by necessity, basic mechanical, electrical and civil engineering working on the many construction projects geared toward departure from Kjenta II. | |||
Most recently Irina was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and reassigned as chief of strategic operations at Duronis II Embassy and USS Thunder. It is an assignment that Irina sees as likely providing an opportunity to effect her escape back to the 22nd century with a bit of planning, as well as providing a better environment for her 4-year-old daughter Katya until that return can be effected. | Most recently Irina was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and reassigned (and laterally transferred back to the Marines) as chief of strategic operations at Duronis II Embassy and USS Thunder.
