• Solara has the body typical to the NH-33 Nekovalkyrja with the general appearance of a human female in her late teen years or early twenties. She is slender and athletic, but not overly-muscled, is 5ft (152.5cm) tall and weighs 42.8kg (88.8lbs). Her measurements are 34-24-33 and she wears a b-cup.

• Having spent much of her life outdoors, Solara's skin is apropos a natural bronze tan, smooth to the touch and shining with health. For ease of maintenance she has elected to forgo body hair, aside from where mentioned below. Solara has no tattoos, piercings or other modifications to her body.

• Solara has almond-shaped eyes that are a golden shade of amber with flecks of copper throughout. She tends to prefer subtle, plum/purple eye shadow and liner to really contrast with the golden hue of her eyes. Solara's wavy hair is a butter blonde mane that she prefers to grow long and leave unrestrained. When it will get in the way, she plaits it into a simple three-strand braid that is either left hanging, or tied up into a bun that can be secured to the back of her head. Solara's neko ears are furred, although the shade is darker than her hair and leans more towards strawberry blonde. Likewise, her neko tail is covered in the same strawberry blonde hair, although the tuft of hair at the end is close in shade to the hair on her head with bleached-white tips.

• Favouring a scent that reminds her of home, Solara's go-to is a light summery fragrance with notes of citrus, jasmine, hibiscus and a hint of sea salt. She has a silvery, singsong voice in the mezzo-soprano range.

• Solara is a classic ESTP-type personality - vibrant, outgoing and enthusiastic. She is driven and action-oriented and rarely wastes time living in the future or the past. While intelligent enough to discuss more-cerebral matters, Solara would rather just jump into doing something and worry about fixing mistakes as she goes. Being bold and brave, Solara is outwardly confident and keeps an open mind while seeking new and enjoyable forms of stimulation.

• She is not a fan of highly organised learning environments, preferring to learn in a more hands-on fashion. It is also hard to follow any externally imposed moral codes, as rules are there to be broken - if only so they can be rewritten more correctly later on. This attitude can made Solara harder to handle for supervisors and managers as she naturally tends to push the accepted boundaries of her situation.

• Being friendly and open, Solara enjoys social activity although her impatient, impulsive and direct nature can cause friction with some personality types. Tending to see little point in utilising guile and deception, Solara very much embodies the idea that 'what you see is what you get'.

Although well past her youngling months, Solara is still young at heart and hasn't devoted much thought to what she wants from life. For now, her goals can best be described as:

• To seek out new life and new civilisations - to boldly go where no-one (or at least very-few), has gone before. Along the way, continue to have fun and experience all the new things!

• To perform her duties to the best of her abilities - even if neither of those are exactly what her superior believes them to be.

• To live life to the full and live with no regrets.

Like any sentient, there are a variety of things that Solara enjoys and likes. Equally there are many things that she dislikes or hates. In no particular order, the largest of these are:

• Being challenged
• Physical activity
• Seafood
• Dancing
• Karaoke
• Yugumo Merchant Spacey
• Yugumo Corporation
• Motoyoshi Clan
• Yamatai Star Empire

• Stimulants
• Staying still
• Being bored
• Classrooms
• Heavily spiced Food
• Kuvexians
• Mishhuvurthyar
• NMX Neko (although those that defect to the YSE are acceptable)

Solara Clark was born on 4日 1月 YE44 at the Medical Clinic on the island of Shōkakkō, situated in the northern Fujisawa Sea to the west of Sapporo on the planet Jiyuu III.

• Her mother, Hayashi Yumiko, was a NH-33 nekovalkyrja created in early YE40, during the Kuvexian War. As a Logistics Specialist, Yumiko saw little front-line action until the Battle of Glimmergold. Having her ship explode around her, leaving her trapped and immobilised after witnessing the unpleasant deaths of many of her crewmates took a heavy toll on Yumiko's mind. She was eventually rescued by a SAR team led by a Nepleslian Exchange Officer named Kenneth Clark who her damaged mind locked on to. In the weeks following, this deepened into an unhealthy romantic obsession that, due to his happily-married status, was entirely one-sided. Two months after Glimmergold, Yumiko received a medical discharge from the Star Army. Having seen a news story about Jiyuu III becoming the capital of the Motoyoshi Colonial Sector and liking some of what she had seen, Yumiko moved to Jiyuu III. Finding life in Tokyo to be too busy and too frantic, she took a job out on a small island named Shōkakkō, liking the idea of a place named 'small but certain happiness'.

• Yumiko slowly healed from her traumas and began to feel a great embarrassment for her foolishness in the days after Glimmergold. Of course, by then she had already changed her surname from 'Hayashi Yumiko' to 'Mrs. Yumiko Clark'. Still, her mental hang-ups made it hard to connect romantically and eventually she got lonely enough that Yumiko decided it would wisest to undergo parthenogensis. Thus, three months later and exactly one year after the Battle of Glimmergold, Solara was born at the island's clinic.

• It took exactly ten days of having Solara constantly with her for Yumiko to exhaustedly realise that maybe she had not charted the wisest of courses with regards to procreating. That is not to say there was no love there, rather that the mother quickly understood that her daughter wasn't the replacement for a romantic partner in her life that she had hoped for. As a result, Solara was increasingly allowed to entertain herself and follow her own interests.

• As a side-effect of this early independence, Solara learned a lot about life in the cities on the mainland. Curious and eager to explore, the youngling came to think of Island-life as 'small, limited and boring'. Fortunately, there was a ready-made solution that the Islanders used for such children and Solara joined the local chapter of the Kikyo Scouts that covered Shōkakkō and the neighbouring islands.
