[b]Biography / history:[/b] Despite the control of the TCG, the furthest colonies were often subject to the likes of raiders, king pins, crime lords, basically the scum of the earth. In decades past, those criminals were sent to the outermost colonies by the TCG with strict travel restrictions and careful surveillance in order to distance them from the people of earth and her surrounding confederacies, a bit like an intergalactic jail. However, with the start of the Great War, the TCG focused their man power on the Grigori, leaving little to no surveillance of some of these colonies. As a result, criminal organizations thrived and gained enough repertoire to control small pockets of these colonies. It was basically a free for all for pirates and crime lords alike. With the war now over, the TCG has resumed its efforts of monitoring these criminals.

Amidst the violence, treachery, and lack of trust, Mika was born. Her father was a kingpin (crime boss) on the Yohzin sector's underground criminal network. She never knew her mother. Mika was a forced participant in her father's criminal activities whether she liked it or not. As a female with a slight frame, he knew she was an easy target, so he taught her how to survive. Though she was not strong, he taught her how to be faster and smarter than her opponent. She witnessed her first execution at age 6, was given her first weapon at age 9 and killed her first person at age 10. Soon after that, her father and many of his head men were killed by his rival. Amidst the blood bath, TCG forces intervened and arrested those who were still alive, including Mika who was sent to a juvenile detention facility and eventually moved to prison to serve a 15-life sentence for second degree murder. During her time in prison, Mika spent a lot of her time reading various literature, keeping physically fit, and occasionally at the request of TCG, provide whatever intel she had on criminals they were trying to track down. At the age of 25, her case was appealed and she was given the chance to go on probation with close monitoring and the penalty of death if she disobeyed any jurisdiction set by the court. She agreed, and had a tracking chip inserted which allowed the central government to both monitor and terminate the girl at a command if need be. After a year of psychological tests and rehabilitation programs, the woman, now 26 was allowed to rejoin the world. Not satisfied with civilian jobs, the woman quickly turned to the military. Her prior experience with them providing intel gave her a little accreditation, and she was allowed to enlist under strict conditions, including the death penalty for any future misdemeanors. 

Her status as a probationer was common knowledge among her superiors and they put her through hell during basic to test her discipline and dedication to the military police. Her physical conditioning during jail allowed her to just barely keep up with their demands. It was evident to the instructors that despite her small stature, Mika was not to be underestimated. She was an average marksmen and struggled during hand to hand combat, but her uncanny ability to think herself out of difficult situations, her speed, and her barely audible footsteps, earned her a promotion to reconnaissance specialist. She and her platoon were often stationed on the outer colonies helping the TCG track the activities of crime syndicates and reporting their activities. Her recent reconnaissance missions earned her a spot on the Regillus VI investigative team, as it was suspected that there could be a potential connection between her recent intel and the explosion.

- [url=http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/358/c/b/terran_republic_female_infiltrator_by_hebime-d5p0mmw.jpg]Standard TCG stealth suit:[/url] This suit uses a neural interface that allows the user to activate any aspect of the suit as needed. Using the latest in nanotechnology, this suit is able to replicate whatever environment the soldier is in, rendering him/ her “invisible”. In addition, these nanotechs create a sound barrier, that is able to dampen any sounds, such as footsteps, that the wearer makes. Lastly, in order to compensate for the lack of protective armor, the suit has the ability to generate an energy barrier that has a lasting power of about 8 seconds before recharge. Fashioned with the latest nylon polymer, this suit is a flame and water retardant and thermal regulating, making it durable in any type of terrain. When needed, the wearer can use nanotech goggles that allow the him/her to determine enemy location using a combination of thermal energy and x-rays within a radius of 30 feet. However, Mika has rarely used this feature offensively due to the nature of her missions which mostly require evasion.

[b]Specialised Skills:[/b] 
- Mika is a polyglot, versed in many different languages and dialects, thanks to her father and his intergalactic “business” affairs. 

[b]Other:[/b] 
- Because of Mika's history, the TCG has banned her from being promoted into the ranks of an officer, which she is ok with. The woman prefers the nitty gritty work of a grunt over mounds of paperwork and leadership roles any day. She can play well with others, only when she has to.
