Lieutenant Shyrese Ajani
Officer
"I asked nothing from those who gave nothing, and reluctantly
accepted the thought of eternal loneliness...should I fail. I have seen the face of terror; felt the stinging cold of fear.
I have cried, pained and hoped... but most of all, I have lived times others would say best forgotten, to save a life and
to aid the injured, I placed these duties before personal desires and comforts. . .These things I do. . .That others may live."

History: Shyrese was born to a military family. Both
her father and mother were soldiers for the Alliance; her mother was a medic, her father a special Ops soldier. Orphaned at
a young age, and having no next of kin to claim the young girl, Shyrese became a ward of the Core, and was sent to be raised
in one of the government run Conservatories on Ariel.
Conservatories were government funded facilities for orphaned children mostly those who had lost both parents through war
or performing their duties for the Alliance. Unofficially these Conservatories were deemed breeding grounds for Alliance propaganda
and future recruits, so it was affectionately referred to as The Farms.
It was believed a humane and moral thing to do for the displaced children of military soldiers who no longer had a family
unit to rely on, to be taken in by the very government that their parents died to preserve.
The Conservatory became Shyreses only point of reference for family and the young girl was fed Alliance propaganda and taught
discipline, order and the Core values of the Alliance. She was taught that as her parents had died for the Alliances beliefs
so the Core planets support and cared for her and in turn it is her duty to serve the Alliance as her parents did.
The Conservatory on Ariel was run very much like a military barracks with early morning drills, ranking system, classes, exercises
etc. A regimental life was all Shyrese ever knew and for this reason alone, Shyrese was staunchly pro Alliance and is unquestioningly
devout to the Alliance and the Core planet that raised her.
It was here that her natural abilities were discovered and she was then sent to study in a special government backed military
run Academy for the gifted under the pretence of a scholarship.
The Academy was unlike anything she imagined, the place was run by government scientists and military personnel a like, but
Shyrese felt at home with the stringent military regimen the Academy gave as the Conservatory had already provided her with
the strong foundation of discipline to build from; she never questioned their orders. Shyreses younger years were spent being
tested both mentally and physically by the rigorous training methods of the Academy.
She was a natural athlete having won gold at the Military Academy Games and possessed a keen intellect. She took naturally
to life sciences and had a firm still hand for the surgical blade. After further testing and psyche evaluation, Shyreses academic
path was then geared towards medical science by the Academy.
Because of her natural athletic abilities and her unique composure to stressful situations she was given clearance to be trained
as a combat medic; her repertoire also included small arms marksmanship, military tactics, close quarter fighting, extraction
tactics, HALO & HAHO and search and rescue tactics.
Shyrese graduated with the signature red beret of the PJs (a nickname that refers to the earlier title of para jumpers or
pararescuemen once used in the 20th and 21st century on the Earth that was. They do not do much para jumping now a days, but
are trained in those methods if needed to be dropped off in an area where air ships cannot land.
Shyrese like the PJs of old is tasked with the recovery and medical treatment of personnel in humanitarian and combat environments.
As a Combat Medic, she was specifically trained and equipped to conduct conventional and unconventional rescue operations
with a tactical group and Shyrese is more than capable of holding her own and lives true to the Pararescuemans Creed, It is
my duty to save life and aide the injured. I will be prepared at all times to perform my assigned duties quickly and efficiently,
placing these duties before personal desires and comforts. These things I doThat others may live.
Her first assignment was on a military cruiser where she was stationed as a medical scientist and field medic for the crew.
It was on one particular recover and rescue mission that she had her first unexpected encounter with Reavers.
Shyrese was injured protecting her charge and was forced into hiding until her teammates could get to her. Trapped in a shaft
filled with mutilated bodies Shyrese and her charge was forced to wait in the small confined space injured and bleeding until
her team mates found them.
Six months later after healing from her injuries and undergoing various psyche evaluations Shyrese was cleared to resume her
duties as a medical scientist / field medic this time assigned to the crew of the Lotus.
