Aura was born on Lave, into a union of two families with a strong ( if very different) space heritage. On her Father's side the fireside story was that Aura's grandfather was a secret, illegitimate son born to a Duval princess and the rakish Alliance General L. Calrissian . True or not, her father spoke with a soft Imperial accent, and had a certain natural charm, that he passed on to his daughter. Jameson was her mother's maiden name, although if ever pressed for details it was always said they were from "the other side "of the family to the great J.J.

The young Aura spent her formative years growing up in the family vineyard . It was a modest estate situated just outside a small rustic beach town , framed with a back drop of rainforest and low level misty mountains. Very much the tom boy in her early years, Aura excelled at Surfing, Tennis, and Golf. But with a love of space travel it was always clear the stars were calling out and at 18 strings were pulled to enroll Aura at the 3 year Officer course at the GalCop Flight Academy. For Aura this was a golden time , and she excelled is all aspects of academy life, especially connecting underneath both genders of her peers.

However, once finished, instead of taking a commission, Aura was required to return home to run the family estate, as decades of fine dining and "keys in the fishbowl" parties had finally taken their toll on Aura's parents. Within a year her parents finally passed on in a sudden "cat" flu pandemic, sending Aura into a downward spiral that culminated with her losing the estate and adopting the persona of 'Candi' at The Minty Hippos club in the capital. It was whilst plying her wares there that she came across a high rolling veteran Cmdr talking of finding the 'el Dorado' Jameson Crash Site. Perhaps it had been the alcohol, or the narcotics, or most likely both but in that moment in the VIP room Aura realised there was something else calling her from deep inside. Inspired she hopped off, and left the that world of stage and pole behind her. Collecting her treasured potted vine cutting, and all her hard grinded out credits from the Club, she decided it was time to set out to the stars to find out what really happened to her two famous ancestors.

At first life among the stars was a lonely grind. In her little sidewinder Aura faced the void, and found out repeatedly what an escape pod felt like. But with the helping hand of other CMDRs, she soon became the scourge of Has Rez pirates , and the Credits rolled in.

Joining forces with Seraphim in the Xbox quadrant , she engaged in a successful campaign forcing the sausage eating LOMAC into retreat from Yen Hsini. However, in the final mighty combat zone battle , a huge explosion in the frame shift drive catapulted Aura through a rift in space, into new parallel universe . Now, she was in the PC quadrant . Almost the same, but here Aura was once again an unknown cmdr, and her ranks and ships were gone.. So it was time to start again, and a new grind to the top...once more into the void.
