Velelsis Mai'Kala'Vista

Velesis Mai'Kala'Vista is a female B'ra'Sha Star Command officer who serves aboard the ScSS Seraphic as the Assistant Chief Security Officer in 329AE as part of Operation Open Water.
She is an expert in the B'ra'Sha martial art of Obudin which she represented the Mai Nation at the Olympics at. When she was young she lived in a mountain monastery studying the art under Grandmaster Sequinas amongst others and ultimately became a Master of the art.
== Early Life ==
She was born in a Cameron Syndicate influenced world in the Outer Rim. Her mother was a drug addicted prostitute. She never knew her father but later found he was a astro-mining worker who had once slept with her mother. 
Early in her life her mother sold her to a Syndicate slaver, but before she could be sold as a slave she was saved by a Star Command raid and adopted by an Obudin orphanage on Koluspanti where she spent most of her life. One of her early teachings was “You have two eyes, two ears and one mouth, so watch, listen and do not talk, you will learn more that way.” She was taught by many masters including Grandmaster Sequinas. His last words to her stayed with her for the rest of her life. "Be whatever you want to be, but be the best."
She once spent the six-hundred days of the Koluspanti winter locked in Obudin training camps without ever seeing the sun. She was able to educate herself further with the great many books in the monastery library.
When she reached her late teens she heard the Psyren'a's Song and went to greet her husband, Hashic Mai'Ula'Vista, a man who was recently widowed and far older than her. They wed in the traditional ceremony, and as they went to bed her husband had a large and fatal heart attack.

In Erya 329AE she was assigned to the Shuttle Celestia on as mission to Ku (planet). She shared quarters aboard the shuttle with Marrion Gibsy. She went down to the surface with Tonga Braakl and observed Wang Weo Li assassinating the Bretwalda, attempting to stop him but being a fraction too late. 
She aided the ScSS Dalia Grybauskaitė investigating Wang Weo Li and his wife, Mwanawa Xixiongi-Li, and discovered a secret message to Mwanawa Xixiongi-Li from Mrs Berryweather indicating she was a Cameron Syndicate agent. 
They were then able to find that Gudapharasa had not returned from the Snowdrop Blue Devil. She aided the cyber-attack on the Snowdrop Blue Devil and then joined the boarding party she was the only one to return, with Gudapharasa. She immediately takes him down to the surface of Ku (planet) along with Tonga Braakl.
