Yamuna Kay

## Biography

### Childhood

Yamuna Kay was born in 20 BCV (52 BBY) as the offspring of two other Cathar on the world of Taris within the depths of the Lower City. Her father served as a member of a local gang known as the "Red Matches". Her mother worked as a dancer in a local cantina for the local crime lord. She spent most of her short childhood acting as a deviant, getting into trouble when she moved up world without the proper papers and being shoved back down into the Lower City by the demands of those above. She herself found a great interest in disobeying whatever she was told.

At the age of 7 her father was killed during a gang dispute leaving her mother a widow and in charge of the next three years of Yamuna's life. It was here that the troubles that Yamuna kept getting into contributed to a heavy burden of stress to her mother which added on top of the new work that her mother had to do in order to help take care of her child. Over the course of the next few years her mother's health would steadily decline with her life being taken at the age of 10, leaving Yamuna an orphan.

Her life as an orphan didn't last for long, however, as within the next two months a soldier within the Galactic Republic's Army named Vanaskar Aurelius would adopt her and take care of her as if he was his own blood. Initially the relationship between the two was a wary one as Yamuna feared him due to his ventilator but slowly their relationship become strengthened, especially as Vanaskar found more time to take care of his daughter after his final four years of military service.

After her four years of military ordered travel with her father, Yamuna did not find this travel to end, even with her father's leaving of the military. Much to her dismay, Vanaskar had his eyes set on exploring the galaxy and all it had to offer though Yamuna was given many an opportunity to pick which planets she wished to visit herself. She spent the rest of her life as a more solitary individual as she journeyed from world to world with her father, rarely having enough time to make her own friends.

As she approached her twenties, her father began to enter into politics allowing her to complete a more stable stay at a university on Coruscant where she continued her studies. Around the time her father and his political ally Mehrlon, a Representative for Tynna, formed the Dominion Pact she began to switch out of her original studies and began studies on administration, logistics, and naval combat as she found a new calling that could be found within the Republic's navy. For the next three years Yamuna Kay prepared an education to commission into the Republic Navy focusing on tactical or administrative work within a ship.

### Military Career

As of now, Yamuna Kay operates as an O-1 Commissioned officer for the Galactic Republic's Navy under Honor Salima's fleet.

## Personality

Yamuna Kay has proven herself to be a naturally gifted person and rarely acts in a formal manner. She works almost entirely off of her own emotions and is very quick to deviate or defy authority and is often considered "rude" by others though this can be contributed to a slight bit of social awkwardness possibly learned from her father. Yamuna Kay is highly extraverted and is easily excitable over any minor good that may come from, leaving her to have a rather optimistic and outgoing nature.
