Background:
Kira was born on a pirate safe-port station bordering Terran and ‘Elven’ space. Her mother was human, while her father was an elven space pirate that had raided a transport her mother was a passenger on. Raised amongst the pirates as an outcast, she picked up a few things here and there such as her skills with guns and how to fix them. When her mother died, she lost her meager standing with her father and the other pirates and was forced to escape. Her small shuttle was picked up by the Fleet and she was interrogated. She told a variation of her story to her interrogators, using her scars and the pirate ownership tattoos to corroborate her story, and was subsequently released.
Finally free to do as she pleased, she used her skills to become a mercenary. She plied her trade for a short while but soon became disillusioned with it, wanting to fill a higher calling. It was then that she noticed Fleet recruitment advertisements. Signing up at the nearest office, she excelled through her training and applied for Fleet Special Forces.
During the Special Forces training school, she learned new techniques to compliment her own skills, such as tracking and stealth, and specialized in close-to-mid-range combat fighting with the Angel MkII Carbine and its integrated grenade launcher.
After completing the training school Kira was assigned to the Nova Hawk Squad, an elite squad that excels at rapid response and recovery.
