Aunty Teinyhr's Minmatar Fiction Corner

“A Spirited Young Lady”



An artistic rendition in a realistic style of the capsuleer known as Teinyhr.

Basic Biography


Athryn Myrianna Noduri is a second generation Vherokior capsuleer jack-of-all-trades, originally trained in the Republic Military for force multiplication roles. Once a fierce defender of the Republic in the militia wars though since largely disillusioned of it, today she is one to generally shy away from the spotlight, but has been known to take strong stands and take up arms to fight issues clashing against her own ideals of justice.

She is the second daughter and youngest child of the business magnate Mikkon Noduri and Elenia Noduri, the leading shaman in her clan. She was born in Harjvalt, Gelfiven VI, and spent the entirety of her early life on the planet. After getting her Voluval at age 15, she spent two years of training in the local Civil Protection Services.

A scan of biometric identifiers at the tail end of her service in the CPS flagged her as having genetic compatibility with the hydrostatic capsule, and as a result she was offered free training by the Republic Military School in late YC100. She accepted the offer for reasons known only to herself; It should be noted that at this point in time, capsules and cloning weren’t yet an inseparable combination but would become so in the middle of her training in YC105.

After seven and a half years of rigorous training both in mind and body, a new capsuleer was officially born in early YC108. She had taken up the nickname “Teinyhr” that was given to her by her peers; Intentionally parsed in a Molden Heath Matari dialect on her capsuleer license, translated the name could mean “persistence”, “tenacity” or “grit”.


Extended Biography
Overview

Born a free Minmatar to an affluent and prominent Vherokior family, Athryn had perhaps the best possible start to a life one could hope for in the Tribes. Being a minor celebrity on her home planet ever since she was born, she had no shortage of people trying to get in her favor, but thankfully even from a young age she seemed to have a good intuition about people and their intentions, mostly avoiding her trust and friendship getting taken advantage of.

Family, like for most Vherokior, was and still is the most important social circle to Athryn, and her bond with her two older brothers and older sister have always been stronger than anything else. She is their precious baby sister and not even her becoming an Empyrean could change that. While she has caused her parents premature gray hairs by some controversial actions and opinions, similarly their bond is unbreakable. If anything Athryn – often affectionately called ‘Myri’ by her family – could always count on in life, it is familial love and support.

In light of all this it is a mystery that she has never publicly elaborated on as to why she decided to pursue the path of a capsuleer, an occupation at the time considered near suicidal even at the best of times. Whatever her reasons were then, today she is a known actor on the interstellar stage, and in her long career has frequently found herself in the middle of monumental moments of recent history.

She herself however regards her greatest achievement (so far) to be all the work she has done to build bridges between her clan and other clans, Tribes and various foreign powers, fostering continued interstellar trade and prosperity for the otherwise relatively overlooked corner of space she hails from.

As a capsuleer that conquered the now infamous training regime of the RMS Special Forces program (known prior to rebranding as “Operations & Command Training”), Athryn’s initial specialization was in various forms of ship-to-ship electronic warfare, and to augment the combat capabilities of friendlies with some groundwork laid for piloting the Command Ship classes.

Early in her career she was perhaps surprisingly to many who know her now, a rather violent and eager combatant, often found doing mercenary work for the Republic or the Federation, even preying on fellow capsuleers without provocation. For a time after the CEMWPA was announced, she focused her aggression on capsuleers under Amarr and Caldari militia banners, but eventually became disillusioned and burned out on endless combat with no clear winner in sight.

In the present day she seems to engage in combat only to accomplish certain objectives, and obviously for self-protection.

She is vehemently loyal to her people, though not necessarily the Republic government; Most notably and to some controversy she has publically stated her disdain for Sanmatar Maleatu Shakor several times, and it is apparent she doesn’t hold the Tribal Council in high regard either.


Personality

Close friends of Athryn describe her as a very kind, caring, warm person and someone who radiates almost childlike innocence when she is very comfortable with a person – if she chooses you as her confidant, she makes you feel special.

In contrast, in public perception her personality has often been described by detractors as hard-to-reach, snarky and downright unpleasant, and she herself would agree. While not exactly a public image she has cultivated for herself, it is one she does not mind as long as people most important to her don’t buy into it. Athryn is generally a rather private person with a very rich inner life, and opinions of strangers usually matter little to her.

Karin Midular also known as “The Ray of Matar” was a huge inspiration and a role model to her, and she has tried to follow in Midular’s footsteps with varying degrees of success. It is evident that she has neither the leadership qualities nor charisma that the Ray had at the height of her popularity, but she more than makes up for it in idealism and determination.

Her perhaps most defining personality trait appears to be her strong will or stubbornness – however you wish to look at it; The refusal to yield to the expectations of others and uncompromising desire to forge her own path in life, damn the costs. Despite landing her in hot water and at odds with powers that be more than once, so far this tenacity has served her well, and opened to her doors someone with a meeker personality would have never even dreamed of.

She is known to spend a great deal of care on her appearance, with some criticising her about indulging in pointless vanity. However, much like almost everything else about herself, she largely considers her appearance from an utilitarian point of view - appearances much as anything can be a useful tool - and if you got it, why not flaunt it.


Appearance / Other physical descriptors
  • Athryn has light brown skin and green eyes.
  • Her hair is black, wavy, and typically she prefers it to be knee-length and free.
  • She has a relatively unique, lower-range contralto speaking and singing voice.
  • She has an athletic, somewhat muscular build due to regular exercise, following general exercise regimen recommended for capsuleers.
  • Of her cybernetic augmentations, only the capsule interfaces on her spine are always visible, but ordinarily hidden by hair and clothing.
  • Her clone template is that of a 26-year-old, but she turned 46 this year (YC128).
Tattoos
  • As nearly all Minmatar, she has a naming tattoo.
  • Her Voluval, called “Yetamo’s Tongue” is on her stomach.
  • She has earned various tattoos for her service to the Minmatar cause, and other accomplishments such as the special tattoo recognizing graduating the RMS capsuleer program.
  • She also has a nanotech based war tattoo, though it is very rarely seen, the last time was during her participation in the Kahah Uprising crisis.

Typical Augmentations – Varies by clone
  • Ocular implants with recording functions (including audio), limited zoom capability and various vision modes. Supplier not disclosed.
  • Biomonitor Suite for personal health monitoring. Data can be accessed with and displayed in the ocular implants. Supplier not disclosed.
  • Neural Enhancement Suite manufactured by Eifyr and Co.
  • Ship subsystem control hardwirings from various manufacturers.
  • On rare occasions, her cloned body can contain more cybernetics than flesh, with extensive modifications made to the entire body in anticipation of specific endeavours.

The augmentations are tailor made to be as realistic as possible and impossible to discern with the naked eye or touch. They are very expensive, easily worth as much as an entire spaceship, but she considers the cost to be worth it.


Miscellaneous Info/Trivia
  • She doesn’t like being recloned as it used to make her feel very sick, and getting accustomed to a new body often took her several days. The probable cause for this condition was some (obviously since corrected) deficiency or error in the training she received regarding TBS -based cloning, which while proven, in this particular application was a technology still in its infancy at the time. She has managed to some extent overcome the condition in recent years with rigorous mental training, but it is still an unpleasant experience.

  • In her youth, she was a bassist and backing vocalist of a punk-rock band called “Homeopathic Girl Juice”. The band released two EPs titled “Not For Human Consumption” and “How Not To Do Cunnilingus”. Physical versions are rare collectibles.
