Kara is a little girl with big dreams, but when these dreams become reality, they may be too much for her to handle. Kara has spent her entire life on the island nation of Jeva as part of a colony of Melasurej refugees that have fled their war ravaged homeland. The only knowledge Kara has of outside nations has come from the food that is imported daily through the trading docks and from the stories told by her father, Darcel. Before he moved to Jeva, Darcel was one of the most brilliant and well-respected geneticists amongst the nations of Nede, and even on Jeva he continued to conduct a myriad of experiments, often with Kara nearby. Kara’s exposure to Darcel’s studies and the exotic cuisine of Jeva’s docks ultimately gave her an interest in experimental cooking, where she applies an inquisitive yet playful approach to problem solving to the exploration of the exotic edibles available at the docks, an approach inspired by Darcel’s view of life and science. She is rightfully proud of her skills as a cook and dreams of the day that she can leave Jeva to share her talents with the other nations of Nede. Kara’s dreams of exploring other nations are shared with her older sister, Sophie, but are discouraged by her mother, Joan.

Kara eventually gets the opportunity to leave Jeva, but not the kind of opportunity she expected or wanted. Darcel is found dead after a group of mysterious men visit his household, and after the funeral Darcel’s family receives a visit from a strange man named Gabriel, who claims he was hired to protect Kara. A few days later Kara is kidnapped by a group of vicious bounty hunters, and by the time Gabriel is able to find and rescue her, they are far beyond the boundaries of Jeva and deep within the crime infested heart of Anryms. Kara finally has the opportunity to explore the nations of the Nede, but she is hindered by the fact that she is the target of the most dangerous hunters and gangsters in Anryms for reasons unknown to her. In fact, Kara would probably not survive in her new surroundings without Gabriel.

Kara is an adventurous and headstrong girl who is not afraid to express her opinions, often with emotional outbursts and even physical force. She leads a very active lifestyle, constantly practicing the popular Nedean sport V-Ball, though her favorite hobby by far is spending hours on end perfecting her skills as a cook. Kara’s passion for life means that she rarely sleeps, much in contrast to the laid back demeanor of Gabriel. While his laziness often frustrates and infuriates Kara, she is eternally grateful to him for saving and protecting her life. On a regular day, Kara is cheerful and optimistic, finding joy in entertaining others through her skills as a chef and an athlete. Even experimenting in a kitchen is enough to keep Kara happy. However, beneath Kara’s exterior is the grief of being separated from one’s family at a young age. Kara’s love and admiration for Darcel knew no bounds. Kara also deeply loves Sophie and Joan, in spite of Joan’s overbearing nature and Sophie’s mischievous sense of humor.

Unbeknownst to Kara, she is actually the result of experiments Darcel conducted to recreate the human genome before it was mutated and modified into the races that populate the nations of Nede, and thus has a completely normal appearance, even though her red hair and green eyes can stand out in a crowd. While she is healthy for her age, Kara’s physical abilities pale in comparison to the superhuman entities that make up the vast majority of Nede’s population. Nevertheless, Kara’s agility and skills with knives partially make up for her small size and lack of fighting experience when she is forced into a tight corner. Only a few people know that Kara was one of Darcel’s experiments, and those who know believe that he did more than just give her human DNA. There have been times when one of Kara’s dishes has left the eater feeling rejuvenated, sometimes healing injuries at an unusually fast pace. However, in many of these dishes, there are not many ingredients that would normally have healing properties.
