Auronella takes truth and honestly extremely seriously. She lacks tact, which causes her to lose friends who do not understand that she is just speaking the truth as she sees it. Despite this "quirk," as far as humans are concerned, she is a rather passionate person, devoting all of her energy to her chosen fields or hobbies, including sports of any kind that will give her a strong workout. This quality often gets her involved in relationships too quickly and she is apt to end up with a broken heart easily. Worse, she is a romantic, so every relationship she enters, she enters with the idea that "he's the one."

When she was old enough, she took the opportunity to run away from her family, applied for and was accepted to Starfleet Academy. Throughout the academy, she entered into one disastrous relationship after the other, quickly jumping into bed with any male that she had a crush on, hoping and praying that he was her Imzadi. While this made her quite popular, it also hurt her each time she was left behind.

As a promising young officer, she was first assigned to the USS Malone where she excelled for a couple years, getting promoted twice. As she moved up the line, she made the classic mistake of getting herself romantically involved with her direct superior, a debonair human officer named Jeffrey Kettering. At first, Jeff was flattered and enjoyed her constant affections. However, as time went by, Jeff started to avoid Auronella by scheduling her on opposite shifts and not being around when she came a calling. It took another three months before Auronella would find out the truth of the situation: that Jeff felt smothered and no longer wanted her around. After Jeff made his true feelings known, Auronella made immediate arrangements to transfer, not wanting to be reminded of her own pain.

Realizing that the USS Leeds was looking for a Flight Officer and it was going to be docked at the same time as the Malone, she manipulated her transfer to the Leeds which was quickly approved by Jeff and the captain of the Malone. Once on the Leeds, she made herself comfortable in ship routines. Continuing her quest to find her Imzadi, she started to take a shotgun approach to her search. It was not long before she became the talk of the ship as her quarters became something of a revolving door, which neither pleased Auronella or her Captain. The Captain called her in for an off the record chat in which he explained that she was becoming a distraction to the ship. Auronella replied that if people could not keep their minds on their job, that was their problem, not hers. The discussion went progressively downhill and by the time voices were raised, Auronella had found that she had abruptly resigned in the heat of passion. Her Starfleet career over for now, she decided Starfleet had caused her nothing but heartache and she started searching for frontier ships to get as far away from simple minded folks as possible.

Auronella has had no direct contact with her family since she left. Every so often, she drops an encoded message to her parents through circuitous channels so that they will be unable to find her but so that they know that she is alright.

Auronella is a deeply conflicted woman for reasons unknown to anyone but her. She, to date, has been unwilling to discuss what the nature of this conflict is and seems to guard it with a ferocity that would make a lioness proud. She is deeply passionate and often lets her desperation blind her to potential bad suitors. She will remain loyal regardless of someone's disloyalty to her, if she has given her heart.
