Personal History | Cara has had a rather chequered history of getting into trouble before the age of 17 when she joined starfleet academy and within days became firm friends with Devyn Kell. Like Kell she graduated in the top 5 percent (Mainly because Kell bet her that she couldnt). On graduation Cara was kept on earth for 6 months as a supposed aide to one of the Admiral's, what she didnt know was that the Admiral was part of a group more secret than section 31. 3 months into her time with Admiral Cormack she went missing and Kell, who had become worried at her silence came looking for her only to find her in a testing facility which he then broke her out of. Her months of 'testing' have left Cara with a few interesting abilities, that are more of a hinderence at times than a help. While she can take on another person's pain and keep them medically stable it is draining on her own reserves and if she is not careful she can be sent into a coma. She has also had her speed and sight increased above Betazoid normal, but she doesnt use this often as it is physically tiring. Cara is both a receptive and expressive telepath and she is a strong empath, able to use her empathy to control a crowd. However this leaves her with debilitating headaches and nose bleeds when she uses it too much. Starfleet intel found out what had happened to Cara and covered it up on the condition that Cara and Kell do the occassional 'job' for them when they couldnt send in anyone else. Cara and kell have made a reputation for themselves in the Intel department as being the go to people for situations that are considered impossible. |
