History: Katren was born on a transport ship to Taal and Kev Tallon. She spent the first eight years of her life running around the galaxy in ships with her parents.  She thought the world was so interesting and that they were all invincible.  She was shocked when it happened.

Her parents took her to a backwater world to get away and visit some friends.  Unforunately, the friends were no longer there.  All they found was a ghost town, no hint of bodies.  An explosion rocked the ground and her parents were sent flying.  Her mother landed on top of her, shielding her from the majority of the shrapnel.  Katren soon fell into unconsciousness.

When the eight year old girl awoke, she squirmed out from under her mother and rolled her over.  With cries of mama, she soon realized that her mother was not moving.  Death had come to both of her parents and when she realized, she cried.  She could not stop the crying. Finally, she looked up to where the explosion had come from.

It was from a land mine from an old war that was long gone. Apparently, their friends had forgotten to give them the proper town. Katren took her mother's necklace, which meant a lot to her, and her father's ring, which also meant a lot to him.  To this day, she wears the necklace with the ring around it.  She not taken it off since she put it on, on that day.

Her father had taught her the basics of space flight, so she took the ship her parents had managed to own and flew to the nearest civilized planet.  She was taken in by a kind Shepherd, who had taken a liking to her.  He learned that the little girl was quiet and reserved, but she eventually opened up to him.

After staying with the Shepherd for ten years, Katren, now 18, wanting to do something with her life.  She decided to apply for scholarships to attend one of the academies to study criminal justice. It was an area that interested her.

After four years of study, Katren graduated with a degree in Criminal Justice.  She found a job on Ariel, but after three years, that dissapated.  She just felt like she wasn't truly needed on such a nice core world.  She went searching for another job and she eventually found herself as a parole officer.  It kept her in the line of her degree and it also proved to be rather interesting.
