Bio:

Oh perilous place walk backwards toward you
Blink disbelieving eyes chilled to the bone
Most visibly brave no apprehended gloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
And I lift the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to serve, destined to roam

Oh ominous place spellbound and un-childproofed
My least favorite chill to bare alone
Compatriots in place they'd cringe if I told you
Our best back-pocket secret our bond full-blown

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a pioneer naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to seek, destined to know

Most beautiful place reborn and blown off roof
My view about-face whether great will be done

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a ground-breaker naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne

Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
-- "Wunderkind," Alanis Morrisette

PERSONNEL FILE

Kara Thrace was born on the planet Caprica to a military mother and a pianist father. When Kara was a child, her mother frequently abused her, and she came to see physical pain as a way of life. Once Kara was of age she left home to join the military, moving up the ranks to become a flight instructor. She was often disorderly and disobedient, earning more than one reprimand from superior officers. Nevertheless, her skills as a gifted pilot quickly eclipsed any other considerations. While working as a flight instructor she became involved with one of her students, Zak Adama. He asked her to marry him and she accepted. Zak was a poor pilot, however, and Kara allowed her personal feelings to blind her to that fact. She passed him even though his skills should in fact have caused him to fail Basic Flight. In his first flight after being certified, Zak was killed in an accident. Kara has never quite forgiven herself for this incident, and it has caused her many difficulties in her interpersonal relationships.

Kara resigned from flight instruction soon after Zak's death, taking a position as an active-duty pilot aboard the Battlestar Galactica. She held this position at the time the Cylons attacked the Twelve Colonies.
