My Story
i was born into the Terra family, one of the Terran Confederacy's rich and powerful "Old Families". my family lived in the Terra Skyscraper in Tarsonis City, Tarsonis. i possessed a degree of empathy that was generally lacking in the Old Families, a trait that did not go unnoticed. i also believed strongly in the concept of fair play.]
Unknown to me, a great deal of her empathy was due to myr telepathic abilities. my father, Constantino, was aware of my talents, if not the full extent of them. Without training i could only sense emotions and at seven years of age was told that i was "empathetic". Normally, psychic children were conscripted into the Ghost Program by wranglers. However my family hid my abilities from the Program, and my father attempted to prevent me from realizing that i was psychic.
At her fifteenth birthday party, i learned that i was psychic by reading the mind of Morgan Calabas, a "suitor".
The Old Families began planning to send some of their children away from Tarsonis to the relative safety of a resort on Tyrador IX, due to the rising number of attacks against the Old Families and the escalating war the Confederacy found itself in against alien invaders and numerous rebel groups such as the Sons of Korhal. My parents agreed to send me away. Despite my protests, and Edward Peters' support, three days after my fifteenth birthday party i boarded a vessel for Tyrador IX. However, i felt her parents' minds as they were killed by anti-Confederate rebels and i quickly disembarked.
i returned to find that Edward Peters, Gustavo McBain, and other rebels were murdering my family and their employees. Peters ordered McBain to shoot me but now, with my psychic powers elevated by the mental stress caused by the carnage i had just witnessed, i unleashed powerful telepathic and telekinetic abilities without any control. A large section of the Terra Skyscraper was destroyed, and all of my would-be murderers, as well as many hundreds of nearby people, were killed. i then fled to "the Gutter", as far away from my former life as possible. The trauma of recent events led me close to suicide.
The destructive spectacle was proof enough that i would be a valuable addition to the Ghost Program. Director Ilsa Killiany ordered wrangler Malcolm "Mal" Kelerchian to bring me in, assigning me the code X41822N even though the wayward psychic was not yet formally part of the Program.
Shortly after i arrived in the Gutter, two men attempted to rape me. They were unsuccessful and severely injured by my telekinesis. The goons worked for the crime lord of the Gutter, Julius Antoine "Fagin" Dale. Monitoring me through traffic monitors, Fagin resolved to "acquire" me for my psychic abilities and, deducing from my expensive clothing, a ransom.
i was brought before Fagin but, despite being in a fragile state of mind,i refused to serve him. Reading minds i realized that Fagin's chief lieutenant, Markus Ralian, wanted him dead. However, i was unable to intimidate Fagin nor provoke him to kill me. Instead, Fagin let me go and ordered the shopkeepers not to feed me. Fagin was confident that starvation would force me to serve him.
Four days later i gave up on starvation. While seeking food, i saw a UNN newscast featuring Clara Terra, who claimed that her entire family had been killed. i lashed out mentally. Fagin, who was watching through cameras, learned my true identity. Realizing that he would be unable to ransom me, as he would be destroyed by the retaliation of the Old Families, he ordered a reliable enforcer, "the Pitcher", to kill me. Despite four days of starvation and partial dehydration i easily killed the Pitcher by destroying his brain with my mental powers. i carried on by stealing food and resolved to go after Fagin for ordering my death.
Fagin responded by acquiring a psi-screen from Confederate Army Supply Sergeant Morwood (the device rendered him immune to telepathy), then surrounded himself with insane heavily armed guards, drug addicts who desperately needed a fix, and children. Although distracted by the thoughts of the drug addicts I defeated the ambushing gunmen and confronted Fagin again. Fagin ordered his men to kill the children one by one until i surrendered while he used his psi-screen to torture me at range. Unable to bear more, i surrendered
Months later Fagin was using me as a "loyalty detector" and assassin. Those who failed to pass my test were murdered. i was prevented from going outside which made it difficult for Malcolm Kelerchian and his allies to locate me. Over that same time Fagin had become progressively more unpredictable, killing people, even his own children, almost on a whim, due to overuse of the psi-screen. Markus Ralian's desire for Fagin's death only grew, but he could not bring himself to do it. i had no trouble reading this from his mind. i knew the psi-screen couldn't protect Fagin from my telekinesis, but i never did have the opportunity to use it on him.
Meanwhile Agent Kelerchian discovered my location from contacts in the police force. To help him secure me, he was ordered by Ilsa Killiany to take with him Major Esmerelda Ndoci and her "Annihilators", a marine unit ill-suited for such a delicate mission but they were all that was available. The Sons of Korhal offensive on Tarsonis' space platforms were not an ideal theater for a ground-based unit like the Annihilators. With ghosts in short supply acquiring a powerful psychic was an "alpha priority" and they were ordered to bring me in unharmed.
Kelerchian resolved to bargain with Fagin first, and if that failed then he would "summon the marines". As the wrangler discovered, Fagin's mental faculties made bargaining difficult if not impossible. As the crime lord ranted me used my powers, forcing Ralian to shoot and kill Fagin. Kelerchian let me scan his mind and i learned that if i went with Kelerchian i would become a ghost. i also learned that a memory wipe was a standard part of the training regimen. This i saw as an incentive, as i did not want to remember the deaths and murders.
A satisfactory end to the operation was interrupted by the penetration of the orbital defenses by the Sons of Korhal. Killiany transferred oversight of the operation from Kelerchian to Ndoci, who directed her troops to kill everybody except for me (no exception was made for Kelerchian). In the ensuing firefight Fagin's compound collapsed. Ralian was killed, while i and Kelerchian were trapped together, and Ndoci was trapped elsewhere in the building.
i used my powers to rescue myself and Kelerchian, but the latter was severely wounded. i forced Ndoci to summon medical aid for Kelerchian by threatening to reveal her dangerous tactics (nearly killing an alpha priority target) to Ilsa Killiany. Then the zerg attacked, but i, Kelerchian, and Ndoci survived.
i was taken the Ghost Academy based on Ursa. Despite my considerable psychic power i started at a disadvantage due to the ill-effects of months of abuse and malnutrition and i barely handled Sergeant Hartley's physical training regime. i was the focus of resentment, jealousy and sexual desire from many of my fellow trainees.
Six months into training i met Kelerchian again, and discovered (through mind reading) that the wrangler was being sent on a one way mission to Sakrysta Mining Base by Emperor Arcturus Mengsk.
As my training progressed, i became part of Team Blue as part of the Academy's curriculum of team-based training. This presented a challenge for me as my experiences in the Gutter had taught me self-reliance – a strength that became a weakness in the squad.
One of my first training missions was the Valerian hostage rescue scenario. While Gabriel Tosh directed fellow teammates Kath Toom and Lio Travski, i ran off and tried to complete the mission by myself. my teammates messed up and "died", enabling me to almost succeed. "Sparky" and Preceptor Lagdamen both rated me highly, something which i myself disagreed with. As i headed to my next class, i thought she saw a child, whom i had noticed several times during my stay.
i was rudely confronted by Dylanna Okyl, the leader of Team Red. While Okyl hadn't scored as highly, i hadn't let my whole team "die". i ignored her. Tosh privately tried to convince me to display teamwork, but i brushed off his advice. Toom was left upset by the encounter. i displayed high competence but a lack of teamwork in other training scenarios. After several encounters with Okyl, in which i blamed my team for their poor performance, Tosh shouted at me that if i had worked with them, their poor performance wouldn't have mattered. The lesson finally sunk in.
i cooperated with Kath Toom on an assignment and later, upon meeting new trainee Delta Emblock, whose background had left her without schooling (which i learned by accidentally scanning her), i helped her with her literacy test. Toom was so surprised by this new attitude she asked what happened to the old Nova Terra. While celebrating Emblock's successful literacy test, Toom and Tosh discussed similarities between their backgrounds and mine. However, Tosh's comments hit too close to home, prompting me to run off. i suffered nightmares that night, which Tosh felt because he didn't sleep with a psi-screen on.
i participated in another Valerian scenario. This time i worked with my team, including new teammate Aal Cistler. However, as the scenario finished, Lio Travski suffered a bad reaction from drug abuse. i, recognizing the symptoms from my days in the Gutter, called for medical assistance. This brought me to the attention of Superintendent Sarco Angelini, who had been secretly testing the effects of drug abuse on Travski's psychic abilities. He memory wiped me and Travski so we would forget that experience. i now found myself uncomfortable with the prospect of memory wiping, as i would forget friends like Kath Toom. Angelini watched this conversation through the surveillance system. Meanwhile, i was promoted to third-class due to my new positive attitude and high scores.
However, my attitude toward the Ghost Program had worsened. i thought they were sloppy about numerous things, such as their psi-screens.
my abilities made me Team Blue's "ace in the hole," at least in Tosh's mind. However, despite the teamwork, Team Blue began to fall apart, the reasons including Tosh's admiration for me turning into distracting attraction. This was one of the reasons Dylanna Okyl was so aggravated by me; Okyl had a crush on Tosh.
During a training scenario against zerg-bots, i detected a "controlling consciousness" behind them—Sarco Angelini—and psychically attacked him. Angelini quickly ended the scenario, but was very impressed. He wished the other ghosts were as powerful as me. As Okyl ranted about their performance, i read her mind, learning about her attraction to Tosh. Okyl was humiliated.
Aal Cistler used his father's influence to return to the Academy, and immediately joined Okyl's Team Red. At martial arts training, a bitter Okyl challenged me to a "duel", but Tosh stood up for me. Okyl beat him up. Afterward Tosh and i kissed while out of the view of security cameras, even though Academy policies forbade dating between students. When Delta Emblock asked me about it, i said i just wanted some happiness now, and they technically weren't dating anyway.
Tosh feared what could happen to them if Okyl found out and reported them. For this reason he rejected my further advances to protect her. An emotionally stunned i then ran into Okyl and Cistler; the latter promised to ruin me. i then stumbled across the "spirit" of Colin Phash, who was using his astral projection ability to ask for help. He lured me to a restricted area.
i warned my other team members about Cistler's plans while meeting up with a newly-confident Lio Travski. Teams Blue and Red were taking part in a "live fire" (but non-lethal) exercise. Okyl arranged for her entire team to focus on me, believing me to be the only threat on Team Blue. She wanted to be the one to beat up me. Team Blue, except for me and Travski, were taken out. Okyl and Cistler skirted a group of abandoned SCVs in order to reach me, but Travski used his technopathic abilities to activate them and capture the entirety of Team Red.
The exercise was terminated, and both teams informed they would join into a new team and take part in a training mission away from the Academy, at The Baker's Dozen.
i pulled through and completed her ghost training in a record two and a half years, whereas it normally took four years.
Nearing the end of my training i was met by Emperor Arcturus Mengsk himself, who gave me a final training assignment: kill Cliff Nadaner, a former anti-Confederate terrorist turned anti-Dominion terrorist. Nadaner had led the group that sent Edward Peters, Gustavo McBain and others to kill my family. i was to go to Tyrador VIII alone and kill Nadaner with only my mental powers. She was inserted via drop pod with only some of a ghost's standard equipment. i successfully located my target, eliminating the defending troops. i verbally confronted Nadaner for ruining my life and killed him last. thus i was graduated from the ghost acedemy
Upon completion of my training, Nova i designated Agent 12-862 and received a memory wipe, becoming yet another ghost single-mindedly focused on serving the Dominion and destroying the Dominion's enemies. i would serve in Nova Squadron under Colonel Jackson Hauler. During a mission against the Koprulu Liberation Front on New Sydney i would again meet the Annihilators. Esmerelda Ndoci recognized me but due to the memory wipe i no longer recognized Ndoci, nor did i particularly care.
After 5 years i started my own squadron and named it S.M.C(Space mercenery corp)
