== Background History ==
Danni was born on the dry and barren world of Arkana to Pell and Martine Jekkura, two members of the famous Professiona Artists Guild. Her father Pell was a noted sculptor, while her mother Martine was known for her pointallist paintings.
Danni grew up with a liberal background and strong focus on the arts, and it was assumed she would become a life-long member of the Guild, especially as she had great skill with pencils and ink cartoons, and though it wasn't necessarily considered the highest form of art, her cartoons had been published several times.
More than anything, though, Danni would look up at the clear night sky and want to visit the stars. She began learning to fly when she was 12, and by the time she was 16 was one of the best pilots in the Guild. When she was 18 she informed her parents that she was going to join the Imperial Navy and see the world. This didn't sit well at all with Pell and Martine, who had very specific views about war, violence, and the Empire, and Danni has left them on fairly bad terms.
== Character's Personality ==
Danni has a lifelong love of the arts, instilled by her parents. Because of this, she tends to be somewhat left-of-center with her thinking, often finding unusual approaches to problems. Her upbringing has also made her rather opposed to authority, something she expects may take her a bit of time to come to terms with in the Navy.
When not on duty she love music, especially loud and/or experimental kinds, opera, and jazz. She's a fan of spicy foods and bad holos, and has no time at all for philosophy.
From a personal perspective, she'll give anyone the benefit of the doubt once, but if they betray her trust they'll never have it again.
Danni's also afraid of vermin, and holds a particular prejudice against aliens who resemble them.
