Before she met Sarak ‘Why’ Yeh Gabrielle was known to actually be very violent, aggressive, and ill tempered.
Under his guidance she was tempered and able to channel such urges into more productive habits/behaviors.
She enjoys all sorts of physical pursuits(athletics, camping, hiking, shooting) and is an avid reader, often being found in possession of ‘gray list’ books.
It was very much a surprise when she tested so highly upon entering Kowloon’s university program in Computer Science.
Eddie Vanh has very much caught her attention.
Mai Chan is absolutely loyal to the Capellan Confederation and despite her age was selected to attend the Academy at Kowloon because she is a near perfect example of the failings of the Capellan system. For Mai is extremely bright with a photographic memory and in any other realm she would almost certainly have been sent to University and wound up on some research staff somewhere and gaining prominence doing that. Instead she was put into service as a pilot and also proved quite able as an Aerospace pilot. She survived the 4th Succession War and steadily gained promotions within the nascent naval arm. So she was a natural choice for the CCN to send as a candidate.
She is very boisterous and self confident.

After the debacle at Kowloon Sarah Ahmed was elected Khan of Clan Steel Viper despite her youth and lack of combat experience but her force of personality and ability to rally the touman along with fresh perspectives caused her to be nominated and voted in.
Through many close calls she was able to rally the remains of Clan Steel Viper to fend off successive attempts at absorption. But it was a losing proposition and she knew it was just a matter of time before another Clan made a serious attempt she could not rebuff.
Part of it too was the stink of such a thorough and humiliating defeat did not make Clan Steel Viper particularly attractive to absorb.
3063 was when Stanislov N’Buta approached her. Star adder had just suffered their own defeat and was now in peril of becoming absorbed as well.
The two struck a deal. Steel Viper and Star Adder would merge. A Trial would determine which one would be Khan and which saKhan.
Sarak ‘Why’ Yeh had started as something of a Ristar, gaining his bloodname at an early age.
What was not widely known was his necrosia addiction. The visions he received from the necrosia caused him to start questioning everything. And I do mean everything.
On the verge of being deemed abthaka or worse, Why Yeh managed to break his addiction but remained quite philosophical for a Clanner and was still on the verge of disgrace or worse. But after the defeat of the Jaguars, Steel Vipers, and Star Adders his views saw increased popularity within his Clan in particular, enough he was suddenly on the rise to prominence again.
He was tapped to share his views with many other Clans in order to prepare their warriors for what was becoming known as the Total War.
That task completed he was selected to command the garrison cluster being sent to the Inner Sphere.
