Noah Alexandria Traner, otherwise known by the callsign 'Troubles', is a half-Hapan half-Corellian female Mandalorian, adopted into Aliit Haliis. A Veteran Guardsman of the Tion Hegemony, there is little known about her; what is known is that she is an able combatant as with most Mandalorians, yet with few notches on her belt due to being relatively new to the galactic stage. Noah is noted as being disinterested in the pursuit of fame or notice, largely keeping to her own affairs.

Personal Life

As is typical of Mandalorians, Noah Alexandria Traner's life is one full of trial and tribulation, with no shortage of difficulties and challenges. Having overcome most of them through her own merit, Noah nevertheless remains a little-known member of the galactic community, though despite this many of the details of her personal life have become public knowledge - generally thanks to her own forthrightness.

History

Origins

Noah Alexandria Traner was born in the Year -11 to the Hapan man Kalen Traner and a Corellian woman by the name of Kayda Xem, on the planet Calfa in the Hapes Cluster. Noah was raised in Braaust, previously a small southern town inhabited by Hapans on the fringe of the law. Noah's mother Kayda Xem ranked lowly in Braaust's social ladder, and so Noah enjoyed few luxuries and much difficulty during the earlier years of her life.

Noah Alexandria's birth was one of peculiar circumstances. Her mother had spent a long time travelling and little time in Braaust, having taken the earliest opportunity possible to leave and explore the world; by the time she returned she was in the later stages of pregnancy, making her the source of much gossip and speculation at the time, not least of all being the identity of the father.

Her birth was uncomplicated - however, where her mother lived often snowed over even in the dead of summer, and the day Noah was born was no exception; on the contrary, weather conditions were noted as being particularly extreme. It snowed so heavily on the day of her birth that none were able to reach the hospital in time, leaving her mother and the hospital staff to be the only witnesses of Noah's birth. This did nothing to deter the rumours and gossip surrounding she and her mother.

Childhood

The first few years of Noah's life were uneventful, albeit difficult. Her mother often told her that she was a special little girl, because she got to help with chores, feed the animals, bake, etc., before she was even 7 standard years, where most other children instead spent their time playing. At 7, she started in the local academy like all little girls did in the Hapes Cluster, with boys starting the year prior.

Having been sheltered up until then, it was only now that Noah learned that everyone else had a father and a mother, while she only had a mother. She asked her mother about it, and her mother said little, save to comment that he was a "heartless jerk" and not worth thinking about. She did mention that Noah's father was a Hapan however, which delighted Noah. Neither did she believe a Hapan could be a heartless jerk, for reasons of her own. This naivete lasted all the way until she was 13 standard years old.

Noah's time at the academy was unpleasant, and she found little camaraderie there. By this point everyone seemed to know she was fatherless, and her fellow girls were judgemental and harsh; Noah suffered much bullying at their hands before eventually opting to socialise with the boys several years later, who were considerably less judgemental. Spending time with the boys led to her engaging in the same activities, prompting much judgement upon her mother, especially from other parents - Hapes culture being what it was, allowing her girl to 'debase' herself to act like a boy was unheard of.

Noah herself didn't care, and her mother supported this approach, advising her to live how she chose to rather than seek the approval of others. However, the good times did not last; as the years went by, the boys themselves became more judgemental and questioned Noah's presence among them, with various childish rumors surrounding her - claims that she didn't even have a father, that she had simply appeared one day, or that her mother was a witch. Distressed, Noah eventually snapped at them. Feeling alone and abandoned, Noah was then approached by a boy called Jaden, who apologised for his words. The two became fast friends, especially upon the discovery that Jaden himself lacked a father. His mother spread the word that he was fighting in a war and earning money for the family, but Jaden told Noah the harsh truth; he had left before Jaden was born and plainly had no intention of returning. The two bonded over their shared misfortune.

To be a Mandalorian

It was towards the end of Year 2 that Noah's mother, Kayda Xem, passed away. The 13-year-old was devastated. After finishing the last academic year at the academy, with the final optional year involving etiquette, Noah made the heavy decision to leave the small town she had grown up in as her mother had done before her. At 14 standard years old, she crossed the river to the ice regions and spent many years working in the ice camps, doing menial tasks at first, then proving her worth later and doing harder labor than most men. She met Cor'buir later and was adopted into the Aliit Haliis. She left about two years later, but is still part of the family - she just needed to finish her life quest.

Travels and Questions

Noah Alexandria, now going by Alex, gathered her few belongings and headed off. For some unknown reason, she headed off onto a cheap spaceliner going anywhere. She was bundled in her warm clothes, wearing everything she had since she didn't own a backpack. She spent a fortnight on the ship before it landed in a warm town on Callos, She wandered north to the forest, laughing to herself about the stories of outlaws who live in the forest. Finding ocean, she got on a boat. Her mind turned to wondering about her father, if she had any siblings, if there was anyone in the galaxy that cared about this young woman. 

After that, Alex ran into Jeff Knight, and his stepdaughter Katherine Scordonian. Because of Katherine's link to the Force and young age, she mistook Alex for her uncle, Evan Traner. Jeff realized that Alex's name also was Traner, and helped her to contact the main family. Alex tried to learn about her family. After contacting her family, she decided she needed to get a job. She floated around a few factions at first before settling in Rim Mining Guild. Over time, that became Seinar Fleet Systems, then Permanent Solutions. Alex stayed there, having found another sort of family. The group merged into Tion Hegemony towards the end of Y18, and Alex joined the local military.

Family Life

Alex has a good relationship with her brother Zeff Traner, who she speaks to whenever she can.

She speaks with her half brother Wes all the time.

Her half brother Evan is missing and hasn't been seen in years, so she has never been able to meet him. Alex has been in contact with Evan's ex-wife, Drael Nagatee.

Her adopted sister Padme is deceased; her second husband was kind to Alex, though, until his death in year 18.

Alex had a long term relationship with Jagged Hersch, a member of Aliit Haliis, for a few years. They ended their relationship near the end of Y18.
