Manner

---

• Quarters:
• Favorite Room: Toni and Tea had each their bedrooms which were small with only a bed and closets, but had one room in between those which was their playroom when they were kids and later study. It was a room where the girls could be alone with each other. They were always very close and loved their time alone. There were days when they just sit there in a hug and didn't need to say anything to feel good.

Hobbies and Pastimes

---

• Farm: Toni loved the farm life and she would never chose to leave it if it was not for the pressure of the overprotective parents. Only reason she joind Starfleet was to escape from them.
  • Gardening - She loved observing plants reactions to adding water every day against moistening every few days and how change impacted the growth
• Horses - despite her injury, Toni will always love horses and riding especially if it means riding freely through unexplored wilderness.
  • Riding - if she can get a horse she surely will have at least one on Til'ahn
• Music - She was not big fan of music. While Tea can do anything while music plays in the background, Toni always needed silence to can concentrate.
  • Violin - Tea loved singing and played piano. Violin gave her freedom in playing and it was good instrument to accompany piano and a singer. Toni don't play often, but when she is nervous or stressed she will first grab her Violin and play till she calm down before doing anything.
    • Her most favorite is black electric violin with headphones which block all outside sounds and let her hear her playing while nobody else can listen to it.

• Meditation - Sisters spent years learning how to relax and meditate using "blank mind" meditative technique. Again as in everything else Tea excelled in use of technique fast and tried variations of it, while Toni even now after 7 years have days when can't hold concentration more than 20-25 minutes during an hour of meditation.

Family

---

• Parents: Salvo and Abrielle - Before their return to Enna Salvo and Abrielle were very good and respected traders for the farming region, but the loss of their beloved firstborn son broke them and forced to return home from Rome.

They hid their life in Rome from Toni and Tea, while kept them as prisoners to make sure they stay protected.
• Siblings: Adrastea DeSalvo Nel Lupo - Tea Lupo
• Spouse: She is too young for that (and always will be according to her parents)
• Children: none

Personal History

Toni had safe and normal childhood of any girl born and living in the tomato-growing region of Sicily. Her family is famous horse breeders. Both Antoinette and Adrastea were good pupils and both applied to Starfleet Academy. Adrastea changed her mind and after 2 years returned home to work with parents on the manor. Tea was always closest friend Toni had and when sister returned home, always introverted Toni closed even more. Parents hoped Toni will follow her sister, but when she didn't they supported her.

Parent's kept girls under constant surveillance and it was hard on them. Since they never offered any explanation or reason for their behavior girls always felt guilty of something, thinking they deserved it in some way. When they were little they often had friends come to play, but with time, all those started to feel bad playing in their garden since there was always somebody watching over them and there was no freedom to play, freedom to fall to try getting wet, try getting dirty, no freedom to have fun.

Sisters learned to play with each other and find fun in trying to run away from their nannies and teachers. Soon their parents couldn't find a nanny for them anywhere near, because they were "spending" them fast.. or because nannies refused to follow orders.

One of the fun's they had was going into the nearby wolf shelter. The piece of the wood was set for the wolfs to can live in wilderness and train for wildlife, but children were often going in there taking food for the animals who liked that more than hunting. When they were caught, animals were transferred to the other part of the park, but some found way back and under the fence to seek the kids they loved. Toni and Tea had one wolf, they called Grigio for his gray fur. He was moved to far parts of the shelter several times, but was returning and always finding a way to escape the fence. After several years he was sold offworld to the zoo. That broke girls heart. Parents bought them both horses and several dogs, but that didn't heal their sorrow.

Still, both of them learned to ride and soon started training for show jumping. Tea was content with stadium jumping, in controlled environment, but Toni wanted more demanding and exciting cross-country discipline. Toni was too young to go into real competition, even her horse was far too young, being only 4 (horse has to be at least 7 years old), but she was training and going into preparatory competitions, till one day when she fell bad during the competition and had sciatic nerve injury.

Toni had long recovery and feared riding for several years after that. Her father brought her great experts to help her with healing, but that fall signed the end of equestrian competitions for both sisters.

That also signed the time when sisters decided to run away from home and the Golden prison in the smart way. They were spending their time learning and both of them passed all the exams with flying colors, finishing schooling 3 years before their peers and joined Starfleet Academy together.

During the Academy sisters stayed together, helping each other learning and passing exams despite they chose different majors. While she didn't attend all, Toni still listened to lot of classes her sister attended and has good knowledge of psychology, mental techniques and medicine. Same, Tea knows a lot about the engineering and Intelligence. Keeping together as they used to their whole life, they were mostly avoided getting invited to parties and never got into the student life of a campus. While Toni kept unaware, Tea was hurt by the fact. Toni was not as good student and she needed to study much more than Tea. Tea didn't want to tell Toni what really bothers her, but she decided to leave Academy as soon as she passed all the second year exams and return home. Toni was now being alone forced to spend even more time learning, but finished in time and with good grades.

Few weeks after Toni was posted to Duronis, Tea arrived to the Embassy and requested to be allowed to stay with Toni. Since many members of the crew already had families, Admiral Turner welcomed her to the Duronis. Reason Tea left home and joined her sister was discovery of the reasons thier parents kept them so well protected. They had a son before who vanished one day never to be found.

Violin Tea bought for Toni

During her travel from Earth to Til'ahn, Adrastea stopped briefly on Starbase 118, where she saw very unusual violin, but listening to performer playing it she was sure Toni will love it. Violin was lightweight and easy to hold, so Tea bought it for her sister. Toni loved it and that brought smile on her sister's face.

Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want a constant reassurance that what they believe is a truth.
