Personality & Traits

General Overview		Siora is quite friendly and outgoing. She doesn't shy away from social situations and often feels at home in the company of others. Often she uses her El Aurian 'listening' ability to gain access to information from people but this is usually because she genuinely wants to get to know them... in her role as an Intelligence operative it comes in handy too however.

At time can be perceived as a young Human leading to misunderstandings and such. - Contrary to her position can be too honest at times. - At some points can fall back into her medical ways when there are others better equipped now to deal with problems.
Ambitions		Recently has been thinking more of settling down and looking to start a family. Make a home for herself. See where Starfleet takes her.
Hobbies & Interests		Enjoys yoga (Il'ea form) and reading. Can also be found in local drinking establishments trying to convince staff she is old enough to drink, but goes for the company.

Character Background

Personal History		Siora was born in Pilon Province on El-Auria to parents Halsin and Loshta Carberos. Her father was a General in The El-Aurian military and her mother an engineer by trade. Her childhood was one of great ease and comfort as her father’s position allowed them to live as such. Her mother, a credited engineer within the EDF, had worked alongside her father for almost their entire lives pushing the envelope in terms of military technology and weapons against their nemesis The Borg. As an El-Aurians lifespan stretches throughout the centuries Siora spent the first 20 years of her life in primary education learning mathematics and language skills that would serve her well in the future. At the age of 25 they enter secondary school, and the first 15 years are spent learning more complex skills such as the social sciences of sociology, psychology and the like whilst more intricate science in physics, chemistry, and biology. By the age of 40 they enter the final phase of secondary education is a 5-year speciality focus which is identified by performance criteria, intelligence factors and family background. She was spotlighted for a medicinal track, as she had an acute intricate mind when it came to biological problems, especially the curing of pathogens. At the age of 45 her speciality education began at The El-Aurian Medical Division (EMD). She began an apprenticeship within the EMD focusing on defensive biological technologies for their civilian and military fleets. During her apprenticeship she contributed to the new repellent to combat the assimilation technology The Borg used. This was seen to be especially effective and was given the green light to be distributed amongst the population and military. In 2165 she completed her apprenticeship with The EMD and was granted the title of a Doctor of Medicine and Virology and transferred to The El-Aurian Defence Division (EDD). In this she ran her own lab, had her own team which focused Borg defences, that was a great honour as they began to pose a greater threat to their own system as they encroached further into their domain. The early 2200's were a time of breakthrough in her lab. They had managed to create a pathogen that would essentially put The Borg to 'sleep', a state of suspended hibernation but it was the job of the EDF to implement it. Siora went along with the small fleet whose job it was to 'infect' The Borg with something of their own. Targeting a small sphere, they attacked with great ferocity tearing down their defences, beating back the drones with sheer determination and strength. During the attack Siora suffered an injury to her right shoulder when a Borg drone attacked her as she worked on a nearby node. In the attack the drone lunged at her with a knife-like implement entering her shoulder at speed and force. During the struggle, the implement snapped off leaving half of it in her shoulder, and she refused to get it removed. Her pain would stand as a testament to not let bullies have their day. They were successful. Siora worked through the pain of her injured body and managed to infect the Borg with a taste of their own medicine. Upon its activation they simply stopped, dropped, and snoozed. Had They won? Years of prosperity began; worlds began to live their lives without fear and friendships born out of love and coming togetherness that had not been seen for centuries. El-Auria itself became a hub of many hundreds of species that came to pay their 'respects'. Siora became quite famous as the leader of the team that made it all happen albeit she didn't let it go to her head and kept working on many projects to further advance her people. Their peace lasted until the latter half of the 2280's. There had been whispers of Borg resurfacing albeit sluggishly in nature as the pathogen seemingly began to wear off. Attacks became more frequent, more violent as they seemed to lack their collective mentality... it was almost like they were heading straight for El-Auria to enact their revenge for their near 90 years of forced sleep. Many labs, not just her own, spun back into action trying to come up with an attachment to the pathogen to strengthen it, embolden it... to put Them back to sleep. Unknown to others was that her team had been working on a 'kill' virus that would sever all links to the collective and essentially reject all mechanical implements bonded to biological parts. 2293 came. They tried, they really tried but it was a lost cause. Was there ever any hope? Siora tried to get her virus completed but simply ran out of time, technology, and a home world. Her devastation was clear, but she took some solace in the fact she had given people nearly a century of peace from Their mechanical grasp. On The flip side there was a part of her that possibly blamed herself... did They come for Them in revenge? -- The 2300's brought a new challenge, new worlds, and a new quadrant. People on this side of the galaxy had no idea what was coming, the threat The Borg were, and they would be on their doorstep within their lifetimes, within the century by her calculations. She was ignored by many as the thought of mechanical men coming to infect them with technology was a completely ludicrous idea and many branded her mad. Eventually she was well known within the quadrant as the Mad Doctor preaching the death of the quadrant and she withdrew from her galaxy. It was during this time she set up her own lab, her own company Carberos Information Services. They specialised in acquiring information for those who wanted to pay for it, after all she was not a charity and needed to survive. In 2365 The USS Enterprise was thrust across the galaxy and was forced into an engagement with those whom she had warned them all about, The Borg. Soon after that Starfleet sought Siora out and asked for any assistance, she could offer but she did not agree straight away remembering the doors that were slammed in her face at the start of the century. By 2370 she began to work with Starfleet Medical as a civilian adviser. This lasted many years before it was decided, in 2382, that for Siora required a commission to be granted more access to resources and personnel than a civilian could muster. She spent years at the Starfleet Medical in San Francisco, at Starbase One working with keen minds and unwavering desire in devising technologies both offensive and defensive to help protect those within the Federation, a home she had realised she missed without knowing. Siora had also kept using her intelligence contacts during this time to keep a close eye on how outside elements were moving. If there was anything to be said for her, she played a long game. It was like she was let out of a cage in 2393 as she was given command of a small science vessel trying to piece together a strange new outbreak in the Morab system. It was both a virus that attacked technology and biology and would prove to be quite difficult to cure. It took 4 years but Siora could not help them. She had moved to create a form of nanites that may counteract a virus but was told no due to the Cybernetic Ban upheld by the Federation due to the Mars Attack. It was doing this Siora realised she missed open space and she opted to remain amongst the stars asking for a position in which she could utilise her skills in a different environment. Back to her ways within Intelligence it was.
