Alani Myrtel is a 24 year old female from Coruscanti descent. In Year 22, she left the Coruscant sector in search of work, and to expand her real life experience. Currently, she works for the neutral nation of One Nation Under Jou.

Description

Alani is a relatively short Coruscanti woman. She is usually found wearing either a comfortable tank top-and-jeans or brandishing a more professional dress or suit. Her natural hair color is brown, but she is known to dye her hair in a, preferably dark, color. At work, she wears her uniform.

From young age, Alani never really did interact much with non-humans. Living on the upper layers of Coruscant and being influenced by her father and the general Imperial society of upper Coruscant, left her to develop a natural wariness for 'aliens'. As time went on, after her departure from the city-planet, she slowly eased into the idea of working together with the other races and organizations, but a general preference to work with humans over aliens stayed. During her travels, she started straying away from the Imperial influence. She gradually formed her own, more neutral standpoint and opened up to the views of other organizational or political bodies. This shift in her views let her to view the galaxy, and most notably the Empire's enemies like the Jedi Order, in a more passive manner. She realized that the Imperial propaganda against the Jedi was mostly just that, propaganda, even though the Imperial doctrine most likely existed to protect its citizens. This view reverted back largly after the assumed death of Nari Noble, Alani's ex-girlfriend, in Year 23.

Generally, you can view Alani as someone who values order and justice, with a generous natural curiosity. She tries to maintain a clear separation between her work and private time.

Biography

Upbringing

A New Soul

Only two weeks after the official Imperial declaration of war on the Rebel Alliance, on Year 0 Day 14, Alani was born in a Coruscanti hospital to Amy and James Myrtel. Despite the expertise of the Imperial medics that were, at the time, stationed at the hospital, a complication occurred because of Amy's medical history. The mother suffered from an early stage of brittle bones and during the birth of Alani, she fractured one side of her pelvis. A C-section was suggested but was ultimately denied. This left Amy with lingering stability issues. Alani herself was declared healthy after a thorough inspection.

The Years Ahead

Alani and her family had the luxury of being decently-off, living in a family apartment on one of Coruscant's upper layers. Free from most petty crime of the lowest layers, the Coruscanti was able to enjoy the comforts of a well-educated childhood. In the following years, she followed a minor management course, with her free time being spent taking care of her mother. Over the course of those years however, those duties slowly began to fall on droids, with Alani being more interested in going out enjoying the nightly life of the mega-capital when she reached adulthood. It was at this time that she learned she was attracted to both genders. Unable to stay attached to to a person for too long, she decided to not commit to a relationship until she had found the one. Her taste was specific, perhaps too specific.

The Father that Looked

James, Alani's father, was an honest believer of the Imperial morals. Being an ex-trooper, he had his fair share of combat experience. At the time of Alani's childhood, he was employed by a private security corps outside the system. Due to this, he was away from home more than he was not. When his job did allow him to take a few days off, James spent his time at home, enjoying the company of his family. It did not take long for Alani to get interested in James' job. Whenever he sat down and talked about his duties, she sat there next to him, glittering, listening carefully. Alani developed an interest in the security work and some of the Imperial stances started growing inside.

Sprouting Views

The girl formed her views from both her father and mother, her father's Imperial upbringing and her mother's kindness. Both traits made for a mix that was Alani's. While living on Coruscant, she did not interact with many 'aliens', most of the places she went to were populated mostly by humans. This noninteraction, along with the general segregation that many may think of when thinking about an Imperial society, made her naturally wary of those not like her. While not wholly denying to do business with non-humans, she would think twice when dealing with those who bore little resemblance to the people she grew up with.

New Experiences

Departure from Coruscant

The logical route after having been trained in blaster combat, would be to join the Imperial Army. Much to her father's disappointment, Alani was not yet ready to fully commit to the Empire. She felt that it would be better to first travel the galaxy, and get some real life experience beyond the Empire's influence. The Empire would still be at the back of her mind, and her father made sure to remind her not to aid the enemy. It took quite some time to convince him, but hefinally saw the pros in Alani's decision. After all, as Alani liked to put it, "The more experience I gain, the better chance I'll have at enlisting in the Army."

And so she left a few months into Year 22 after having said her goodbyes. Originally, she was meant to go to the Venaari system to rendezvous with a potential employer at Lone Star Industries, but after further research into the company, she decided to change her course instead. While an employment at LSI could have proven to be a lucrative option, she found out the company had a rather grim past, as it apparently shared a history with the Exelis Runners. These, now obvious, criminal ties would make it one of the less-desirable options to work at.

A renewed State of Order and Balance

After having received aid from the One Nation military during a rescue attempt gone wrong on Polus, she made up her mind and decided to follow up on the millitary's offer, and went for the system of Morobe to apply for a job. Passing the hundreth day of Year 23, Alani found herself working for the neutral Nation, as an officer cadet.
