| Physical Description | As an Aethiri, if she 'reverts' to her 'natural' form, she has porcelain-colored skin, but she maintains her form to appear effectively human with a Caucasian appearance and has done so for years, so that it takes no concentration at all, in fact for her, she'd have to concentrate to appear anything else other than human. She has minor morphable features that are only skin deep. She wears her hair loose and down, the tips of which reach down to nearly the small of her back, but always neat and brushed out. If she reaches back to contain it, she senses that combat is approaching. Due to her minor morphability capability due to her Aethiri ancestry, she looks younger than she is, although she can change that over the course of a few minutes along with other minor aspects. |

| Personal History | Crown Princess Celeste Annae Viol Fresce Mila Tiae was born in the Capital city of Viescue, Aethereum at 0214 Federation Standard Time on March 17th, 2340 and the celebration lasted all day and all night to celebrate the new heir to the throne of the Aethiri Republic. A Constitutional Monarchy, the Royal Family was revered by the people of Aethereum, even while they primarily had a ceremonial role in the overall scheme of the Republic, along with the tiebreaking role whenever there was a deadlock. Still, the Aethiri loved their Royals, thus the cause for celebration. Even while she was joined by a brother 6 years later, then a sister after another 2 year wait, the fervor behind Celeste was rarely less than a fever pitch. During her childhood, the flame-headed girl was fawned over, but was always kept on the straight and level by her parents and then by herself as she always grew up knowing what the future held for her. When she turned 14, Celeste followed the tradition of the Royal Family and was enrolled in the Stellaris Military Academy, where her father had gone in order to promote service to the people of Aethereum. After she graduated near the top of her class, due to her own merits, she was assigned as a Junior Command Lieutenant to the ARS Vellar, flagship of the Aethiri Home Fleet that they kept even though they'd joined the Federation seventy years prior. In the history of the Aethiri Republic, across their five star system polity, the only reason a monarch or their heir had left the Republic had been in time of war at the head of an Aethiri fleet. As her mandatory two-year time serving in the Aethiri Military came to a close, Celeste made a decision that bucked tradition: She applied and was accepted to Starfleet Academy and she announced her intentions to attend. Only a handful of Aethiri had ever gone to serve in Starfleet previously, never one as an officer. The uproar among the people was mixed, some agreeing that it was time for one of their own to join the officer corps of the Federation, mostly those calling for her to refuse the invitation because the heir to the Republic should not put themselves in that amount of danger. In the end, she left Aethereum with an escort befitting the Crown Princess. She only spent two years at the Academy, given her past training, but instead of taking a militaristic path, went into the sciences instead. Having had a very comprehensive education even prior to attention the Stellaris Academy, much less Starfleet Academy, she had a very good grasp of the entirety of science but decided to focus on a handful of aspects, primarily chemical and materials science, taking in a few engineering courses along the way to help in the latter. During her first year at the Academy, she sent her 'escorts' home because they were drawing too much attention and she didn't need to be treated like someone special. Like most other junior science officers just graduating the Academy, Celeste was assigned to a larger starship that was assigned scientific missions, the USS Clearwater under the Caitian Captain Aarnor Xelina, which promptly left the Sol system for a survey mission hundreds of light years away. It was a rather boring assignment with very few hiccups until they met up with a spatial anomaly that cut the five year mission short as the Clearwater returned to one of the outer starbases for extensive repairs.
