Captain:Talnin Aneivin

"When you are only expected to live for little over half a century, it tends to put things pertaining to life and death into perspective. And if I happen to be blessed with the skills and knowledge that could be used to save countless lives throughout the galaxy during that short of a timespan, what sort of a medical professional - or person, even - would I be to say no if given the chance?"

- Talnin Aneivin

Talnin Aneivin is a Sildas doctor renowned for her work in the fields of xenobiology and psychology. Originating as a slave from the, Talnin was purchased from her master by the in 2819 and has served them since as an operative. A fervent pacifist and believer in the Centauran Defence's mission and ethics, Talnin dislikes war - and all those who would profit from it - in all its forms, seeing it as unnecessary bloodshed.

History
Born on the desert world of in the first few months of the new century, Talnin was inducted into the Sacrosanctity's caste system upon her birth. She and her family belonged to an dynast from the prestigious Saan family, and were cared for at every turn by their surprisingly kind and thoughtful master. In fact, when Talnin began early on to show herself to be incredibly intelligent, it was the dynast who went on to arrange her with advanced education, even if mostly out of desire to groom a valuable Sobak.

Talnin went on to study fields necessary for medical professionals within, and completed her studies in 2815 at the age of fifteen - considered to be the age of maturity for Sildasi. Having earned her doctorate, she was placed in charge of a clinic nearby to the Saan family's estate where she first began to make a name for herself. Initially serving only Ezesi'i and their slaves, Talnin's clientele list began to expand beyond what she might have considered typical species. This pushed her to further study other Tuurosian species and how to treat them properly. During this time Talnin also went on to publish numerous scientific articles regarding the varying similarities across multiple species inhabiting the galaxy and on the evolutionary processes brought about by the. Eventually, by 2819 she had come to be recognized as one of the leading medical experts in the galaxy.

It was later that same year that her master was approached by the Centauran Defence, who were hoping to recruit her into the organization. While the dynast was at first adverse to the proposition, a deal was struck once the operatives agreed to buy Talnin from her master for the estimated price she would have gone for as a Sobak. Through this transaction, Talnin was effectively freed from slavery by the Centauran Defence, and more than willingly chose to serve within it as a doctor and psychiatrist - seeking to use her skills to help her fellow operatives as best as she could. She was also given the responsibility of running screenings for any potential new members to the Task Force.

Appearance
As is the case with Sildasi, Talnin's looks haven't changed much since reaching adulthood, and have, in turn, retained their youthfulness. Considered beautiful for her kind, Talnin is moderately tall and with noticeable litheness, and her eyes are of bright gold in colouration. Keeping to her people's ancient traditions, she remains barefooted in most places and behind her left ear wears three feathers belonging to a bird native to the Sildas homeworld of Sil. For other clothing she wears a white lab coat covering a nanoweave bodysuit of Ezesi'i origin - to which few minor additions have been added during her time with the Centauran Defence.

Personality
A person who values peace above most things, Talnin believes Tuuros' fate to be a dark one if the negative elements that continuously set out to harm it aren't removed. Despite this, having seen in her line of work many of the horrors brought about by the galaxy's hostile environment, she doesn't consider violence as an effective way to bring about this change - but instead as a way to propagate it further. Talnin tends to act warmly around people; offering snarky remarks about the other party, and is in general a fun-loving person. She also possesses a certain amount of self-acknowledged naivety.

Abilities
Like many of her people, Talnin is an empath and capable of limited telepathy. This, in addition to Sildasi's ability to formulate an effective understanding of most alien languages, has made her a natural psychiatrist; being able to converse about more difficult subjects with her patients in ways more comfortable to them. Despite her age, Talnin is a person of vast intelligent and has professional experience that could likely amount to centuries of work for others. Also, given her work pertaining to xenobiology, she has treated most, if not all, species in Tuuros Galaxy and has in-depth understanding on each of them.
