Kara is the younger sister of Arla, though they are half-sisters by blood, they are very close, and have been since earliest childhood. They grew up together, went to school together, joined the military together, and have served together for many years. Both rose to command at a similar time, though Kara remained in the ground forces while Arla moved to overall command.
Kara now serves as the Commander's best and most trusted General, still a front line vehicle commander, who is never far from the battle front. She leads from the front, and is a well loved officer who is known for taking care of those under her command, as with her older sister.
The bond between the sisters is strong, with Arla's respect demonstrated by her tolerance for her sibling's use of her pet name 'Katie', which she would not allow anyone else to utter. Kara is known mostly by her callsign 'Aelit', which means "Heavenly Elite" in Old Echani.
When the New Star League Remnants took their leave of the Alula System, Kara remained behind out of loyalty to her House. After their brother made his speech denouncing their sister as a traitor, Kara took her leave, rushing to catch up with and join the NSLR, to Arla's surprise and delight. She now serves as the NSLR's chief scout and a talented military ground commander.
