Sometimes she would daydream, and her glistening eyes would glaze over while she was in her station in some post far away from her home.

Character Background
| Personal History | Camryn spent most of her life in space. She wasn't born in any planetary systems or moons. Being part El Aurian has isolated her from most of her peers including her family. She barely knew her father as he died when she was born. She took his name Jesse, and turned it into her middle name, Jessack. However, she was raised by her Klingon mother. She had an uncle, Korex, who was a bard with untold collection of stories. During the mid 2360s, she met a traveling El Aurian named Calen Shepard. They chased each other throughout the solar system, hoping to catch one another. He courted her and she returned the gesture. Eventually, they had a child born out of wedlock named Gracelyn, However, he vanished when she was born, so Camryn raised her on her own. | |
