Biography
Early Childhood
Tenka was born on Shili and spent the first portion of her life there growing up with her clan. When it came time for her to ascend to adulthood she chose to enter the Alliance Navy and show off her piloting skills.
Secondary Education
She was accepted into the star ship pilot's program and though she was given a chance to join the Alliance Air and Space Force she chose to stay with the Navy and pilot starships. When she joined the crew of the Muffin she was both disheartened and overjoyed to be working with Johnny Danger because she found him extremely attractive but because of inter species breeding laws she could not act on the impulse.
2350 and on
Joining the crew
Once trained Tenka quickly took on more and more responsibility at the helm as Johnny took less and less, so that he had time off to do other things, like go on away missions, and play games on the holodeck. Most notably when the computer virus damaged the ship during a Remulan attack Johnny and Belinda took their ships out to fight and Tenka was left to pilot the ship which crashed, through no fault of hers onto a water planet and sank to the bottom.
