Background:
K'emlyr of the House of Vorath grew up in the slums of the capital city of Qo'noS, the daughter of two members of the service class. Her father, Ro'jal, and mother, Laketh, were servants in the House of Mogh, to Chancellor member Kurn and his family. As such, K'emlyr received far more of an education than either of her parents did, and regards Klingon poetry and the works of Wil'yam shk'Spear as the greatest literature in the galaxy.

Things became difficult for the family, however, when the House of Mogh lost it's seat on the council. Kurn was exiled, and many of the house servants - including her mother and father - were executed before the then sixteen year old's eyes. K'emlyr's only saving grace was her own combat skills, which she used to fight off the soldiers of the House of Gowron.

With nowhere left to turn, her Empire in chaos, and her parents dead, K'emlyr saw few options remaining for her. Having been impressed by Lord Kurn's tales of his brother, Commander Worf's adventures in Starfleet, K'emlyr decided to follow suit. She stole a small shuttlecraft from the private hanger bay of Gowron, Chancellor of the High Council, and headed to Earth. From there she made it to Starbase 12, where, upon being apprehended in the stolen shuttlecraft, she told her tale to the Starbase's Chief of Security, Commander Sean Murdock.

Commander Murdock took pity on the young Klingon girl, and, based upon the struggle she'd put up in her apprehension, sponsored her entrance into Starfleet on the Security track. K'emlyr found this acceptable, and passed through the academy without difficulty. She did, however, excel in the areas of hand-to-hand combat, routinely impressing, and even besting, her instructors.

For K'emlyr's first six month tour out of the Academy, she was assigned to the USS Miranda. When that tour was up, she put in for a transfer request to the USS Galaxy. When asked why, the Ensign had merely replied, "Because."

Personality profile:
K'emlyr has been described in less than glowing terms on some occasions when it comes to her personality. She does not speak much, and when she does, she comes straight to the point. She has little tolerance for fools or idiots. She is very dedicated to her work, almost to a fault.

She has routinely frustrated Starfleet Counselours with her no-nonsense attitude and brief answers. She regards them as useless, and does not hesitate to tell them so.

Special notes:
She has a five-inch scar on her left forearm where she was cut by one of the soldiers escaping the slaughter in her home.
