## Biography

### Early Life and Career

Dana Lycosa was born on the planet Oktarach. By the time she was an adult, Lycosa took the position of ambassador of her homeworld to the UCR.

### Trial of the Dawns

In 5957 ASA, the Praeliorian emissary Gris Véridémi arrived to tell the Galactic Embassy about the wrongdoings of the Dawns—a group of freedom fighters which Véridémi deemed terrorists—while also attempting to earn an observer seat in the embassy. While Lycosa herself did not back up any of the claims made by the emissary during the hearing itself, she was secretly plotting with him, along with Borealan ambassador Percival Hayes. She did this in order to defame the Dawns and by extension Holly Araneus, who was a freedom fighter that attempted an assassination of the Oktarachian Sentinel. Lycosa wanted to cover the Oktarachian government's tracks after Araneus was freed from aslyum by the Dawns. During a recess between the hearing, Lycosa eavesdropped on two other politicians; Senator Jove Scorzalita of Cascade and Ambassador Apollo Vopordna of Aethra. The two politicians discussed plans to perform a private investigation on the Dawns in order to prove their innocence, and had the recess extended for this investigation to begin in a timely manner. Lycosa informed her two cohorts, Gris and Percival, about Scorzalita and Vopordna's plan. Gris assured to his allies that he had methods to halt their progress, much to Lycosa's liking.

Eventually, Gris' plans were set in motion, with Apollo Vopordna being assaulted by a Xanthan disguised as one of Vopordna's own aides. Apollo survived the attack thanks to his friend Jove arriving to the scene in time, but the two politicians ended up missing the conclusion of the hearing. It was due to Hayes' words and several other ambassadors' defamations of the Dawns that led to the UCR's decision regarding the group: the Dawns were not allowed to set foot on any republic territory, with planets aligned with the UCR making their own decisions on the matter.

#### The Final Hearing

Dana Lycosa was present for the final hearing regarding the Dawns. To the surprise of almost all of the Galactic Embassy, the Dawns stormed into the embassy building on the *Gravity Well*, a ship owned by the Morkarian privateer, Tiberius Stede. Accompanying them was House Lafayette, who all mysteriously went missing after Alden Lafayette's sudden resignation as ambassador many years prior. While the Dawns made their case, Lycosa argued that they stilled freed Holly Araneus, who she claimed to be a terrorist and had caused suffering to the Oktarachian people. The leader of the Dawns, Annesidora, countered this accusation by rightfully claiming that Holly Araneus was lobotomized at a facility that the Oktarachians and Vundorians wrongfully forced her in.

When Lycosa frantically tried to deny the lobotomy claims, the Cascadian Quaestorium unveiled deeply rooted, blatant corruption within Vundorian and Oktarachian borders. Evidence of lobotomies and other such outlawed medical procedures were displayed for all of the embassy to see, with Oktarachians working together with the Vundorians to ensure that their secrets were kept. Unable to deny the evidence, Vundorian ambassador Adela Maslow attempted to avoid blame by placing it entirely on the Oktarachians, and by extension placing the blame on Lycosa and the government she represented. Maslow claimed that if Vundoria didn't accept Oktarach's help, all of their asylum funding would be gone. This only proved to cement claims and suspicions of corruption within Oktarachian and Vundorian borders.

Vice Paramount Rhamal Dheis decided that the fate of Oktarach and Vundoria's presence in the Galactic Embassy would be decided by the Cassiopeian Senate, much to Lycosa and Maslow's disappointment and fear.
