Summary
Thalitha is hardened by the trauma of witnessing her parents’ murder on a corrupt border world influenced by Klingons. She blames Starfleet for taking bribes and turning a blind eye, a betrayal that drives her fierce protectiveness over her younger sister. Cunning and unyielding, her moral compass skews toward survival and loyalty to family. The notion of joining or relying on Starfleet is anathema to her, and she trusts no one but herself and Alexia.
