Physical Description

Standing with perfect posture, T'Stala has a thin, curving frame. Her face is always serious despite her large eyes seeming to hold ecstatic glint within them. Her hair falls just below her shoulders, though usually pulled up and back into a shorter updo. Her skin still has the slight greenish tint despite her slightly tanned color. With long legs and slender hands, T'Stala comes off as an attractive being. It's everything beyond her looks that leaves much to be desired.

Personality & Traits

General Overview

Simply to upset her parents, T'Stala always behaved in a slightly rebellious manner. She let her hair grow long and even took to indulging in drinking socially. She has no problem with pushing the limits in terms of testing others – when she is around others. Preferably, she is alone and working alone. Emotionally, she is non-existant [except when she binges on chocolate – away from others]. T'Stala holds back no truth from anyone and always finds a logical way in, through, and out of a situation.

Strengths & Weaknesses

Logic is T'Stala's strength and stronghold. It allows her to be great at what she does. What stifles her in the long run is her wisdom. She tends to occasionally look back on what could have gone wrong or right and ponders how things would be otherwise. T'Stala's desire to be different can also debilitate her. She's never wanted to be like her parents in the sense of how they lived – even down to leaving home.

Ambitions

Ambition? T'Stala simply desires to live until she no longer can.

Vulcan brandy, chocolate, playing with cadavers, running rogue experiments, meditation, singing, avoiding parties, avoiding crowds

History

T'Stala was the younger of two daughters. Her sister, T,Laria, had always been the favored child. She got the better fiance, freer lifestyle, and less responsibility. For this, T'Stala grew to dislike her sister. Luckily, she was taught early in life to repress her emotions considering she never fully ignored them except when in the presence of others. Then, she met who she had been affianced to – and she was not pleased. So, she went to her only friend and made a pact with him to break the marriage when the time came.

Over the years, T'Stala became heavily involved with science and the medical field. She enjoyed learning something new every chance she had. Her intelligence was the only way to outshine her sibling at this point. Her parents hardly knew how to control her as she let her hair grow and she took to behaving rebelliously. When she turned nineteen, they thought their problems were solved.

Two days before her marriage was to take place, T'Stala called for a koon-ut-kal-if-fee; her friend would be the challenger. T'Stala spent years observing her mate and knew that he'd allow logic to win when challenged. Those in their circle agreed that T'Stala wasn't worth fighting for; that she simply wouldn't be worth the trouble. Thus, based on 'logic', she wasn't and she was released from her bond. Her parents stood in shock and felt they were in over their heads. T'Stala knew the perfect way to relinquish them from this misery of a second daughter. Within a week of the broken bond, she left to find herself in the universe.
