I have worked out a first draft of my character's biography. Anyone interested can take a look first, and suggestions and comments are always welcomed!

[hider=Biography]It was said that blue blood flowed in the veins of Noreille D'amélie. It was believed that among the numerous colonies that declared independence, an ambitious entrepreneur managed to seize a space colony - presumably by the name of Amelia - with his influence and declared himself the hereditary leader of this new country, while citing distant (and dubious) connections to the old nobility from Earth.

As time passed, and the artificial stars extinguished one by one, the growing D'amélie family sworn to protect its homeland to the bitter end. However, fearing that the lineage might be extinguished along with its roots, a daughter of the noble patriarch was sent to one of the last havens of humanity - Mother Earth.

Still an infant in the cradle, little Noreille was escorted by a trusted butler of the family to a relatively stable corner of Earth. As neither the D'amélie family nor its business extended to Earth, and the ongoing war already drained most of its coffer by the time they made planetfall, they were barely able to maintain a somewhat comfortable lifestyle. As such, Noreille soon became familiar with engineering and, in particular, Mobile Suit maintenance, both for a living and for maintaining Étoile Tombante, the MS that carried her to Earth. Despite overwhelming odds, she believed that her family might come to find her some day, and “it would be inappropriate to not return her cradle" by then. The fact that her MS was originally intended for long-range support also helped. 

That said, bringing one's own heavily-armed MS proved to be a major advantage when applying for local self-defence unit, and she prompted to do so after her guardian passed away. He had always been against her risking the remaining lineage of the family, but the additional salary, as well as an innate sense of noble obligation, still convinced her despite the butler's reasoning. 

After all, it is the duty of nobility to protect its people.[/hider]
