Home & Upbringing
Terra was raised by her human mother on a predominantly human planet within the confines of a fairly strait Starfleet community. And Starfleet communities being Strafleet communities, she was always included, but somehow she always managed to feel separate, different, and outside the sphere of her human peers.
The Vulcan gift of Mind Melding became the tool with which she bridged that gap, using it with near alarming frequency when others were willing to allow her to do so, taking a decidedly un-Vulcan comfort in the connections she was able to forge.
Starfleet Academy
In the Academy, Terra was exposed to more cultures, races, philosophies, and perspectives, and she began to view her own place within Starfleet culture with an odd duality that encouraged both excellence and integration. She had to be the best she could manage to be at what she was, but she also had to learn to let those who served alongside her have their place as well.
Career Events
Two events defined Terra's experience as a Starfleet officer: The loss of the first ship she served on, and the loss of her first captain. Both occurred in a single day. Both, she believed, could have been avoided. That the Romulan captain responsible for the destruction had long since been hunted down and brought to justice mattered little.
Terra learned much about survival that day, and much more about the value of diplomacy over a show of force.
