Biography
Birth
Callistra Grey was born on the world of Betazed, in the sea-side city of Dalaria in the lovely province of Dalar which bordered the stunning Opal Sea. She was the product of two parents from varying one species, one of them being Betazoid and the other of which was Kriosian. Ten years prior to her birth, her mother, Soraya Vray (of the First House of Betazed, Great Lady of the Divine Scepter, Possessor of the Harp of Zendra, and Heir to the Crown Jewels of Betazed) was the acting Ambassador from Betazed to the planet of Krios Prime where she met Ambassador Aldiram Vi'Valdi, the Ambassador from Krios Prime to Betazed. The pairing of the two was wholly surprising because they first barely got along, either one of them having a short fuse. Aldiram was not used to such an abbrasive outgoing and honest woman who did not seem to tolerate disrespect towards her or her people. Meanwhile, Soraya too was astonished at his bold and self-assertive manner which the average man on Betazed seemed to lack. In time, the anger each had towards one another dissipated into love and it was not long before they were addressing themselves as "imzadi". Unlike the majority of full-blooded Kriosians, young Kallistra was born with natural abilities, as an empathic metamorph and due to her being one, she was born with telepathic powers which was not too common in Betazoids or even half-blooded Betazoids. There were no theories as to why she was born that way but it was suggested that the recessive genes triggered the abnormality.
Childhood on Krios Prime
During the first two years of her life, she rarely ever saw anything of her father and remained on Betazed in her mother's family's care. Belonging to the First House of Betazed, the House of Truth and Honesty, the Vray family was one of the most prominent and foremost families on the planet. Young Kallistra was given attentive care by her maternal relatives for they often doted upon her in the absence of her mother. There were times when Soraya had to travel elsewhere to tend to her diplomatic duties as an ambassador of Betazed. Only during the holidays and while on break from his diplomatic duties, Aldiram visited his young daughter.
Shortly after turning three, at the behest of his request, the fledgling family relocated from their home on the Opal Sea on Betazed to the Vi'Valdi family estate back on Krios Prime. It was on that planet that it became known to her paternal relatives and her parents that she was different in more ways than one. From her early years on, she would come to think of difference as a disability, in a way. Once the paternal family discovered her "disability", it was reported to the Kriosian regime which incurred the wrath of her mother and displeased her father immensely. At the age of four, she was removed from her parent's home, by the state, and taken to a village where it was planned that she would be taught in the Kriosian ways. Her mother being a strong and unrelenting woman made the declaration that if he daughter was to be acclimated to the Kriosian ways, she would also be also have to be instructed in the Betazoid way of things. At first the Elders were against such a stipulation but eventually gave up on the issue and let her win.
The Village
In the royal village where she was sequestered by the state, Kallistra was tended to by tons of servants and tutored endlessly by teachers on an array of subjects. The village was so isolated and located on the edge of a large forest that she rarely ever saw anyone that was not a servant of a tutor. The only visitors she was allowed to have were her parents who would come and visit her once every two months to check up on her welfare. She was taught about Kriosian literature written by the greats of earlier times, the extended Kriosian chronological timeline of history, essentially about art, and sex (the latter of which her mother objected). Aside from being taught by Kriosian tutors, her mother established several tutors for her about Betazoid history, Betazoid culture, Betazoid philosophy, Betazoid art, and Betazoid religion. At the beginning of all of the teaching, Kallistra was extremely overwhelmed by all of the topics she was taught. Yet the years wore on and the only time she was permitted out of the village was when she was travelling to Betazed on certain holidays to visit her mother's family. However, her mother immediately noticed the symptoms of her intense telepathy and she was set to speak with a Betazoid specialist, a particular doctor. On average, the doctor would give her pills to inhibit or at least decrease the ability of the telepathy to fully function. She set aside time to meditate and focus on centering herself in order to keep the telepathy under complete control which helped her quite a lot. It was during that time that she became rather religious, more so interested in Betazoid religion.
Running away
Once she reached the age of sixteen, it was announced that she completed her Kriosian and Betazoid training. Immediately the government planned to marry her off to some up and coming politician but before any deal could be made, Soraya took her daughter off Krios Prime and off to Betazed. Much to her dismay, her parents began to quarrel completely. Aldiram was completely disconcerted by his wife's actions and flat out declared that she betrayed him and insulted his family's honor by what she did. The action seemed to almost destroy the once wonderful marriage they had.
