Vrai Librax is a Zeltron with a fiery wild streak, toned down recently by her enrollment into the Galactic Empire's Academy. She is a former member of the now dissolved Mercenary alliance Edge-9 but hopes to find a new family within the Empire, while working alongside an old, familiar face from her childhood.

The Past

A younger Vrai Librax

Vrai could never forget her childhood, no matter how hard she tries and to this day, the distraught of losing loved ones still haunts her and is occasionally the reason behind her reckless nature. From the age of just five years old she and her mother had been struck with one tragedy after another when Vrai lost her father in an unfortunate hyperlane incident. Vrai's mother Elskai had known the consequences of what her husband's job entailed, being the explorer that he was, but never had she been able to foresee the events that led up to the crash, which took the lives of Priirv and several crew members somewhere within the Lesser Lantillian Route, that started from Zeltros and ended in Junkfort. Vrai, at the time had been speaking with her father on the datapad and was about to wish him a good night when, from out of nowhere, the ship started going into a state of panic and someone shouted out about a collision course, and to 'brace for impact'. From there time seemed to slow down as Vrai watched her father look down at the screen with sheer horror in his eyes and as he opened his mouth to speak, there was a flash of light and flames engulfing the ship behind where the man sat before the screen went blank. Elskai rushed in to see what Vrai was yelling about and caught the tail-end of the tragedy but rather than comforting her child, she walked away and calmly closed the door to the girl's room.

It was not until some time later when Vrai emerged from her room when she and her mother were finally able to confront one another; Elskai blamed Vrai for the tragedy because she had distracted him, and Vrai blamed her mother for letting him go in the first place. Elskai then had the task of reporting to her seventeen year old twin sons about their father's death, while cradling her youngest daughter Jovfin who was just coming up to three months old. Blame would be thrown at Vrai at every given opportunity by the woman and her two sons causing Vrai to sink deeper into a state of depression. When her uncle came to visit just a few days later having received news of his brother's death, Vrai was able to confide in him about how her life was being made hell by her mother. The decision was then made to take Vrai away for a few months but her brothers weren't having none of it. They wanted to go travelling, they deserved the trip more than Vrai. If the old man wouldn't take them along as well, there was only one thing they could do. An attempted murder gone wrong, the boys tried to use a substance similar to the poison Synox, to kill Wahnuhl in order to steal his ship and do their own thing, but he had suspected something and forced both boys to drink from the glass to prove their innocence. A mouthful, they thought, wouldn't harm them but within just a few minutes both boys started to show the side effects of the poison as it entered their systems and started attacking their nervous systems. Without even a word to his late brother's wife, Wahnuhl packed a few things from Vrai's room and sent word to his ship to prepare for launch, carrying the sleeping Vrai to his quarters and leaving the twins to suffer and die. By the time Vrai woke up, they were already travelling through the hyperlane that had claimed her father's life.

Later Years

For years, Vrai travelled with her uncle and visited many places but the memory of her father's death still haunted her. She loathed and resented her brothers and mother for the way they had treated her but she blamed herself over and over about his death, questioning whether it really was her fault because she had chosen to communicate with him on a nightly basis while he was on his long trips away. It got to the point where she was starting to lose her mind, snapping at her uncle, getting a beating for misbehaving, and even being shut within the airlock for several hours until she had learned her lesson. One wrong move, he'd said, and the doors would be open and she would be blasted into space. The discipline seemed to work though because eventually Vrai knuckled down with her work and learned the basics about the mechanics of the ship that had been her home for most of her life. She could check a number of things easily and tinkered about with electronics on an almost daily basis. Something went wrong, no problem. Vrai was there and resolving the issue. A screen not working, still not an issue. Loose connections were normally the case on this older model but most of the time the young Zeltron found the issue and sorted it within a few hours at most. It all depended on the severity of the issue and what parts were required to fix it. But even with work keeping her busy, Vrai often found herself drifting back to the day she had watched her father take his last breath, so it was quite fortunate for her when her uncle introduced Vrai to a girl by the name of Farra Lin-Pa. While she was not a Zeltron like Vrai, she did however share a few common interests like stars, planets and electronics and they were of a similar age. Farra, Vrai learned was an orphan, and was being cared for by the ship's General, her grandfather. Vrai soon discovered that Farra had already decided on her future career, wanting to serve the Galactic Empire which, at the time, Vrai knew very little about.

An Innocent Criminal?
