Private Storyline
Background:
Shiraamer Siirkasaare was born in 1078 on Liisurkhish (Vland 2416). Her mother
was native to the world, with a strong Vilani lineage. Her father was a trader
of (mostly) Solomani descent. He met Shiraamer's mother on a stopover. It was
love at first sight. Marriage and Shiraamer soon followed. Her name means "The
Flower of Star Travel."
Shiraamer owes her youthful appearance and beauty to her mother. Her father's
Solomani heritage is credited with giving Shiraamer her determination and
wanderlust. Once she was old enough, Shiraamer followed in her father's
footsteps.
Shiraamer spent 20 years working for Irgargarua Shipping, a moderate
sized shipping company. In her first year aboard a subsidized merchant, she
filled in for a sick pilot and earned the respect of the ship's captain, Shiidma
Damigkii. Shiidma became Shiraamer's mentor. The two also became friends.
Shiraamer soon gained a reputation as an excellent pilot and broker. As Shiidma
rose in ranks in the company, Shiraamer rose as well.
The day finally came when Shiraamer gained a captaincy of her own and the two
friends parted ways. They planned to vacation together on Shiraamer's 20th
anniversary with the company. Shiidma didn't show. Shiraamer became concerned.
War had just begun and Shiraamer feared the worst. She sent an inquiry through
the company traffic department asking for Shiidma's routes for the past three
months. The company president personally replied in a letter that Shiidma had
been killed by vargr corsairs.
Shiraamer lapsed into depression for several months. She took a leave of absence
from the company. After alot of soul searching she was determined to carry on
in Shiidma's memory. She went back to Irgargarua but it just wasn't the same.
Taking advantage of their merchant vessel decommissioning plan, she bought an
old Garu class Far Trader and went into business for herself. She renamed
the ship Miishakaal, after the ancient Vilani shugilii who espoused
healing, knowledge, life, beauty and blessings.
Shiraamer has spent the last 8 years trading and shipping through Lishun sector.
Although she's tried to keep to the safe areas within Lucan's Imperium, this
territory has shrunk over the years. Corsairs have invaded from coreward. The
Vilani seceded from the Imperium and formed the Ziru Sirkaa, cutting her
off from her relatives. She hasn't seen home now in several years. But she
hasn't given up. The ship is finally paid for and she has a good crew. It seems
as if things are looking up. Shiidma would be proud.
After securing the release of an Imperial spy and her family from a Vilani
megacorp prison, Shiraamer returned to Larkarda with her crew. On 145:1125,
while out shopping with Chuck Strider, the ship's medic and cook, she was
killed in a terrorist attack at Oriole Downport.
