Biography

It was said that keth Zenne had been blessed by the Star Guardian: in a declining race they had been able to carry out four healthy daughters. However, what from the outside seemed a blessing, for Shar it was always a nuisance: Not as smart as her two older sisters, nor as charming as her younger sister, she struggled from an early age to find her place in the world. And especially from stopped referring to her as "The middle-child, the tallest-one."

Shar was born and raised in a small mining community on one of the moons of Thonolan IV, where in recent times his [i]charan[/i] had discovered an important Pergium deposit. Due to the instability of the compound and the tectonic fragility of the moon, orbital extraction was impossible, which promoted the creation of an underground mining post, where workers and their families created a small but united community.

Shar grew up there as a boisterous and rebellious girl, with no interest in the activities of the mine or studying, but dragging her younger sister, Layiss, to "adventures" that used to end up with scraped knees and elbows and damage to machinery. When this irresponsible attitude was extended to her teen years, the concern of her parents began to become evident. While Zharran was already studying in Andoria to become a geologist, Setev began to prepare her exams to enter the nursing school and even the little Layiss had already declared her intention to join the Starfleet to explore the galaxy, Shar was limited herself to get into fights, too hot-heated to think about her future.

However, an unexpected event oriented the life of the young Shar more than any talk she could recieve: when some pirates attacked the outpost with the intention of getting an especially large shipment of pergium, the Imperial Guard was forced to intervene. Seeing the performance of the soldiers fascinated her. From that moment, she put all her energy (until then wasted) into preparing for the entrance test to the Chekthora. Thus, the year he turned 16, she passed the entrance exams and traveled to Andoria for the first time.

The training in the disciplined Academy was hard at first for the rebel Shar, especially when her peculiar appearance (too tall and thin for her age having grown up in a low-gravity environment) made her a perfect target for the jokes of bullies of her class. The animosity between her and her classmate Thelian th'Valrass was extremely prominent but, unlike other cadets who ended up expelled for letting themselves drag themselves into unallowable duels, they became rivals, standing out above the rest in their personal competition to overcome the other. So on, when the fourth year of training was about to end, their rivalry had become a kind of mutual respect or a friendship slightly misunderstood. Both were predicted a bright future and, secretly, they hoped to be assigned to the same destination to continue with their personal competence.

But that promising future was truncated when a subspace call, shortly before graduation, informed her about Layiss's death: Her younger sister, following the custom she had learned from Shar of wandering around the mines, was exploring one of the abandoned tunnels when a landslide collapsed. Hours later, when they realized her disappearance and managed to find her, it was too late. Shar was shocked at the news. Worse still, Thelian had the bad-timming to cross her when she returned to the bedroom, and tell her one of the mockeries that he used to dress up all their encounters. To this day, Shar still doesn't remember what he said, only that an indescribable rage gripped her, fueled by the pain of losing her sister. When she came to her senses, she was in the infirmary: according to what she was told, four cadets had been needed to reduce her. Thelian was not so lucky: where she had only lost an antenna, he had lost his life.

She was expelled with dishonor from the Academy, returning home ashamed of her failure and numbed by the mutilation she had suffered. The long months of recovery that followed were a blur for Shar, mourning her dear sister and her failure. Even more so when the letter of admission from Layiss arrived from Starfleet Academy: if she had only lived a few more weeks, she would have fulfilled her childhood dream. When her physical recovery was nearing completion, the young Shar was also determined: since her future in the Guard had been prevented, she would fulfill her sister's wish and join the Fleet, that way Layiss would live through her.

She passed the entrance exams with the minimum grade and, a year and a half after being expelled from the [i]Chekthora[/i], she traveled to San Francisco. At the Academy she tried to maintain a low profile, still scared that a sudden outburst could truncate her future again. Although she could have excelled if she had oriented her training towards Seccurity, she focused on the more technical classes, quickly finding that (although she struggled with theorical engineering) she had ease for repairs, and that she focused her mind enough to allow her to deal with her moody being. She graduated with the profile for the Operations department.
