Personal History		Ky'La was born on Betazed. Her childhood was anything but normal. With both parents constantly busy, it made it a little harder to find quality time with her mother and father. Yet the times they were together were happy and fruitful. She had several pets including a pet bird who she loved very much. Ky'La is a full Betazoid, her mother started teaching her how to use her abilities that were as strong as her mothers. There was no limit to her abilities but with guidance from her mother, she became very connected to her abilities and surprised her parents with the strength she had developed. Ky'la had a strange fascination with Klingon weaponry so Ky'La started practicing with her first bat’leth at the age of 5 years old. She was taught by her father's best friend, who was a full blooded Klingon warrior his and grand father and she became an excellent learner. She was also taught how to wield the d’tagh and several other Klingon weapons. She learned quickly and proficiently. Soon she entered into the best Betazoid academy and excelled quickly in engineering. She learned every aspect of engineering including many of the Federation and Romulan, Klingon ships of the time period. Of course these Romulan ships were ones that were either captured or damaged and salvaged by the Betazoid military to teach their students on their compositions and technical capabilities. She learned very fast and became most proficient in engineering for a child of her age. Her next program was battle tactics and strategies from many masters. Her mother taught her the art of psychology and ambassadorial tactics. But of course she rebelled at this but went through it just to please her mother. She won several contests and took champion standing at her first bat’leth tournament a year before her 13th birthday and was given a replica of the Sword of Kahless and a tiosk from her battle instructor. Her parents saw little of their daughter as her father was sent on an intelligence mission and her mothers ambassadorial duties doubled, so her grandparents picked up and continued with her studies. Her grandparents entered her into the Klingon intelligence school in hopes she would follow in her father’s footsteps. Ky'La thought her grandparents were crazy but once there she dived headlong into it. Even though she never became an active intelligence operative, she learned all she could about it just in case that one day it would be required of her to use them. She did and even though she was hurt she took the pain sticks and uttered no sound making her family very pleased. For a time, she struggled between decisions as to not wanting to become an ambassador. She had her heart set on engineering first but, she also had a love for flying as well. Something she was going to make a point of it when she arrives at SF Academy. Ky'La went into seclusion as she honed her Betazoid abilities and practiced her Klingon defensive skills. She was joined by an honored Klingon master who also helped her train further in the Klingon ways of battle. With the build up of Dominion forces in Cardassian space, and the second Khitomer Accord being reestablished, her parents moved to SB 211 near the Argolis Cluster and Tagra. It wasn’t soon after the move when her father’s ship was called to a station near Bajor where he was stationed with her. The fighting was fierce and soon there was an opportunity for an operative to go undercover to survey the Cardassian ship yards so unknown to Ky'La, her father volunteered her for this mission. This mission was so secret that it was deemed classified and she was quickly whisked away by a runabout without saying goodbye to anyone. When she came back from this mission she was debriefed and had to go through many sessions of therapy due to the extreme violations done to her both mentally and physically. It was a grueling and trying time for her to recover but she did but not without the scars of battle. Soon the Klingon, Federation and Romulan fleets joined together and took out the largest Cardassian shipyard inside Cardassian space and that opened the doors for the Cardassian underground to capture the Founder’s leader and end the long and bloody Cardassian war. It was now that she told her father and mother that she wanted to join Starfleet and they agreed. She joined the Academy, even though she was not 18 but older and with much more experience than her younger counterparts she did excel at the academy and was actually skipped a year. She flew through engineering, flight, and tactical with ease and was soon assigned to the USS Pharaoh. She was assigned to engineering and for some reason it was hard to adjust to this class ship. Not to mention the crew were not to happy with having a Betazoid aboard so soon after the war. She was granted a transfer to the USS Artemis as her engineering officer. Suddenly she resigned her commission for personal reasons and went into seclusion again. She needed time to heal and rethink her career. In order for her to be the Starfleet officer that was needed she had to restudy the works and what she had learned in order to return to active duty. Finally she was ready to return to Starfleet and resume her commission. Upon returning, she was assigned to the USS Claymore, an Akira class beauty and she was so happy she dived into her post as engineering officer with such a love that soon she was made CEO with the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade. While serving on the Claymore, the ship was sent on a classified mission and as a direct result of this mission and the loss of her engineering staff in the encounter,sent her into a tailspin so she requested a transfer to the USS Triton where she took over the engineering spot and it worked well to her advantage as the captain of this vessel was a full blooded Klingon named K’Vas. He was her idol and soon became her love although he was spoken for. He taught her many things about the Klingon world and things that she did not know. On one mission, she did not know that she was the bait for a murder and was imprissioned in the brig on the Triton being accused of sabotaging her beloved Triton and murdering her captain. To be caged like an animal was bad enough, but to be accused of murder took the cake however when it was all over she was exonerated, and because of her devotion to her ship and her crew, the captain soon promoted her to the rank of Lt. Commander. It was not long after this promotion that the Triton was sent on another mission to a planet called Serenity to build a base there. It was on one of the many missions from Serenity that the captain was lost and so was another dear friend, the XO, Sam. With the news of these two losses her world came crashing down around her. Two of her closest and dearest friends were gone and she was lost. Had it not been for Tanon, she probably would have folded into a world of despair he did help her keep from folding up. Soon there was a new captain assigned as well as an XO and to say the least she couldn’t quite accept either of them quickly. They were somewhat naive of her qualifications and what her job involved but she did slowly adjust to them and soon were acquainted in several ways. Without her knowing, she was awarded the Axanar Humanitarian Medal for her efforts done on Serenity. Ky'La stayed on the Triton for a few more years while it was based at Serenity but being there and not out exploring and flying she grew tired and requested for a transfer. She ended up on an Akira class, USS Avenger doing a dual role as Chief Flight Officer and flying a Squadron of fighters. It was here that she used her engineering and flight knowledge in helping the Avenger avoid being blown up on several missions. Flying the Akira class and flying fighters had Ky'La happy for so many years that when the Avenger was decommissioned in 2394, she again went looking for a home again. This time Starfleet sent her to the Academy training ship, USS Poseidon as CFO.
