Riyalli, Chyka

Born 23.2.4588, Dari, Maria, Marian Drift Prefecture, Feyli Empire. Female Snow Leopard Feyli.

Chyka Riyalli was born on the 23rdof Midwinter, 4588,in the small post-village of Dari, high in the Yu'min valley to the northwest of the city of Mashiva. The dull, gray stone community along the single track railway consisted largely of three families who's members had long worked on the railroad, clearing snow and seeing to routine maintenance for the upper reaches of the mountain pass line between Mashiva and Chiravi. It was a dull life of atypically hard work, and one that often didn't suit the children of the families, who generally yearned for far more exciting life experiences. Unfortunately, due to the little community's highly insular attitudes, such children were often considered black sheep, and shunned when they left to spend their adult lives engaging in more fulfilling pursuits, and Chyka was no exception to the rule.

In the year 4606, enticed by the promise of education and entertainment, Chyka would move out of Dari and become a full time student at El'Yon University in Mashiva. There, she studied Information Science while making liberal use of the school's proximity to Mashiva's lively Entertainment and Resort districts to partake in all sorts of fun that she'd missed out during her childhood having only allowed to travel by railroad to the mountain valley elementary and high schools, and never any further. Chyka would graduate in 4610 with a Journeyman's Degree in Information Science, and would quickly find a job at the new Mashiva Mariner's University, as a night librarian. At MMU, Chyka would continue her studies under the Universal Academic Credit Program, adding a second Journeyman's Degree from El'Yon U., this time in Library Science, to her educational portfolio in 4612.

By 4615, the ever curious Chyka was getting bored working nights at the MMU library, and started to delve into the world of xenoexperiences, though almost never to any particularly personal or serious degree. Her new interests had been noted by a part time night student at MMU, who happened to be an employee of Gelitech, Inc, however, and soon the effort to temp the little snow leopardess into joining Gelitech would begin. It didn't take long to snag her interest, and on the 19thof Second Harvest, she would finally take the bait.
