It also helps her get her mind of her own insecurities, which are many. Beginning with tiny thing as her smoking habit; her rare outburst of anger and violence up to the fact that she feels that she gave up on and betrayed Nepleslia, by choosing much easier life in Yamatai. This feeling of betrayal even deepened as she changed to new Minkan body, to keep up with criminals. She stopped being Nepleslian and that eats her away slowly. Another things she hates about herself, but does nothing with is the fact that she is willing to go around the law sometimes.

History

Family (or Creators)

Mother: Joana Carver (40 - deceased) Father: Frank Carver (27 - deceased)

Pre-RP

Andrea was born on Nepleslia. Her family was not the one of the richest, but they had solid life for several years, after she was born. Her father who was a policeman, was killed on the job when she was four though. It made their life much worse. Pension coming from the state was not very big and Andrea's mother Joana, had to work a lot to keep her daughter safe.

Andrea was then raised with stories about her father, either told by her mother or friends of the family. Some of them still serving on the force. Her father was not some action hero, but he still had sort of solid grasp on what justice is and how it should be served.

Andrea saw the society she was growing up as sick and bad. Gangs ran in the cities, crime organizations did what they wanted and the little cop, which were not in pockets of crime mobs could do little against it. Andrea grew sick of it.

Just a short time after Andrea celebrated her eighteenth birthday, her mother died too. Her last tie to the planet disappeared and she took all she had and left. Andrea moved to Yamatai, trying to find new life there. She was fascinated how better life seemed there, crimes were very low and police did splendid job.

Not entirely sure what she wanted with her future, Andrea decided to follow her father footsteps as she joined Yamataian National Police. Getting through the academy easily and eager to prove herself she started serving. For her colleagues she was sort of attraction. A gruff nepleslian young woman serving with refined Yamataian policemen and women. She managed to fit in fast though.

Her hunger for work and drive to do her job showed up soon and she became dedicated to her job. She still hated criminals, which made it even easier for her. Young woman had a cause and she followed it. Her abilities might have not been the top of the force, but she always pushed forward, which gained her soon spot as a detective.

Everything seemed fine, until Nepleslia went independent. Andrea was first happy for them, but it also bring out some memories and made her think. She was doing her job and she was good at it, so she had to ask, why did not she do it where she was born? On Nepleslia? Why did she run away and leave the people who needed help much more behind. It slowly started eating her away.

Andrea started to look for mistakes on her. She became sloppier and more aggressive while working. Slowly she started gaining bad reputation and there were gossip about her going over the line few times. Nothing was proved by internal affairs, but she slowly found herself being assigned more mundane jobs, rather the higher scale ones. It made her even more depressed thinking what a failure she was. Her feeling of being pulled away from Nepleslia even deepened, when she upgraded to NH-31F body, when most other officers do the same. It helped her work, but she stopped being Nepleslian all together and ate her soul.

She still had her job though. It was something she could draw to and focus on. Give her something to concentrate, rather then on her mistakes. On the job she was still pushing forward, outside it she quite useless. For a time she was even hitting a bottle, when off duty. When her last superior found that our, he wanted to get rid of her. Using his connections he made sure Andrea was transferred to Unit Four. Unit that was considered a band of misfits. Only then Andrea realized how deep she sunk and that it was time she had to start doing something with herself.
