Editing Meggan Puceanu (section)

==Family and Background==
Given Name: Meggan Puceanu

Preferred Alias: Ailahteleva, or Aila H. Televa

Meggan Puceanu is a Kriosian “empathic metamorph” (EM). She has no actual family. She is a clone of Kamala, who was wed to Chancellor Alrik of Valt Minor in 2368. While in 2414, the original Kamala would be near or over 50, Meggan is just under half that age (23.5), though precisely when the genetic material was harvested from Kamala is not known to Meggan. [She probably does not even know who she is a clone of, or even if there are more like her.] Meggan lived all of her pre-Academy life in a Federation holoship. Held there as part of an experimental program to test the viability of creating whatever sort of personnel might be needed, Meggan lived a life designed by others. Meggan was created at the behest of “The Admiral” – a person Meggan knows little else about. She suspects this was Admiral Doenitz but has no actual proof. Prior to her eventual rescue from her holoship confinement, two of the most notable of the various simulations to which she was subjected were representations of Sigma Iotia II (as part of a study in imitative imprinting), and the Trill homeworld (based on the observation that outwardly Meggan could pass for an unjoined Trill). These oft-reused settings were to have a profound impact on Meggan’s personality. Though sequestered until the age of seventeen, Meggan bears little conscious ill-will toward those who essentially jailed her. The reason for this is because female Kriosian EM’s are traditionally separated from their families very early and shipped off to be trained as ‘perfect mates.’ Since this would likely have been her fate had she actually been born on Krios Prime (rather than cloned in a Federation lab), Meggan believes its immaterial who would have managed her early life – The Admiral’s staff or “her own people.”
