I suppose I'll contribute in a similar vein. ((This started off as a couple of little facts but then I realised I'd never written a biography for Arkena before, so this is really going to be more of a complete story.))
- Arkena was born on a space station.
- Arkena has a twin brother, Arkenai Wyrnspire, who is a capsuleer. They both studied to become capsuleers at the Center for Advanced Studies, and although ultimately they both met with success only Arkenai went on to become a capsuleer. Arkena ended up studying planetary ecology as a side project in her final year at CAS, and developed a fascination for the many creatures that could be found across New Eden. As a result, she ended up taking a research position on Algasienan IV, studying the diverse range of aerial lifeforms that could be found on the low gravity world Vivanier III rather than starting on a capsuleer career. Her brother went on to join the FDU.
- Favourite fiction novel: Wandering Soul, by Pierre Neraux. The author was a traveller, and although the story itself is fictional many of the themes are based on his actual experiences. Arkena read this book at CAS, which helped her developing interest in ecology.
- Arkena rarely watches holovids, instead preferring her imagination and actual observation.
- Favourite animal: Vivanian Stormwing, a bird native to Vivanier III which is found by the cooler poles of the warm planet. The storm activity on Vivanier is unusually strong and helped shape the ecology of the planet. The creature is airborne for most of its life and hunts the various animals that charge themselves in the intense storms. Keeps a few at home and indulges in the sport of falconry.
- Military career started after Caldari influence began pushing into the Josmaert constellation in YC110. Arkenai was posted to the nearby system of Eugales, and Arkena's assistance was solicited in removing a Caldari ground team on Vivanier, on account of her experience of the terrain. Under pressure from her brother, she became more involved with a team of Federal Marines during various operations across Josmaert and Unour and ultimately decided to join a medical training programme for the Marines. Upon passing, the immortal soldier technology had made its appearance in New Eden. With her brother's influence in the FDU, she was fast-tracked through the application process and indeed already had all the necessary qualifications, having trained in medicine and obtained a capsuleer qualifications. Her 'rebirth', the first death of the immortal, took place on Vivanier III, jumping out of a dropship at 5km altitude.
- Keen on a handful of eccentric and perhaps medieval sports such as falconry and fencing. Took up fencing after becoming involved with the military and has a collection of blades at home. Her preferred weapon is a Garoun sabre.
- Combat style inspired by the Vivanian Stormwing - mobility is king, and a quick kill crucial.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.
Glorious pink victory has been achieved.
