Editing Ayehla Zyahn (section)

== Family ==

Ayehla Nodel (now Ayehla Zyahn) is born on Trill in 2382. Her mother, Leihla, is directing a well-known clothes company while her father, Tolas Nodel, is a board director of Trill Science Ministry. Ayehla is the fourth of five children and only woman. Her brothers are : Toran (38), Jynas (35), Raifel (35), and Airon (26). 

When she was young, Ayehla loved to follow her older brothers. If they were hard on her, she quickly learned to deal with men which shaped her identity.
 
Before she was joined, Ayehla was a “tomboy”. She fought her way through and didn’t mind being in a situation where she need to play it tough. During her youth, everything her brothers did, she was doing it, even if it was dangerous. She also inherited her father leadership and at school, she was a dominating figure, not afraid to speak her mind. It even often gave her some problems with her teachers as she was blunt.

Nevertheless, part because of the importance and personality of her mother in her life, Ayehla always tried to keep a feminine touch. She always preferred long hair, and everytime she had the chance, she wore very sexy and feminine clothing.   
It was not a big surprise to her family when she enrolled as a marine. 

She was joined in 2406 which changed her radically. If before, she was afraid of nothing, the joining make her feel more worry about her health and life, and more conscious about the risk (including the risk to the symbiot). With a writer, and a diplomat as previous hosts, she found in peace and dialogue something more rewarding than fighting. For an ex-marine, that was quite a radical change. The change affected her enough to ask a change in her career. She quitted as a marine and become a security officer. Because she didn’t had all the skill necessary, she spent one year and a half at Starfleet Academy to insure the transition, but was quickly promoted to Lieutenant after only one year of active service as a security officer, in recognition of her experiences as a marine.  

Ayehla has still very great relations with the other marines of her platoon and they are close enough that they consider each other as a family. 


Her previous hosts were : Lonek (architect), Jozhen (Merchant), Uzhra (Nurse), Vehri (Botanist), Voran (Ambassador), Eldwyn (writer), Orihan (freighter pilot), Alaniel (athlete), and Shahydra (nutritionist)
