She's been unusual since her very beginning in this world, like her family. The first unusual situation in her life has happened during her birth, or maybe it has been her birthplace to be exact.

She was born in 795 AS. at Planet Hallam... Well, not exactly at the mentioned planet, but at its orbit. Her family was travelling in a "Camara" - class freighter through the Pennsylvania. Their ship has entered the system via jump hole from Texas - and the whole situation has just been caused by her father. He had some kind of phoby and always tried to stay off scanners, whether there was something behind it or not. The ironic fact in this situation was about her mother, who's been accompanying her father during this trip, while already being pregnant. The faate wanted Anna to get born in the middle of nowhere, having only a cold, covered with ice planet in direct neighbourhood. Exact circumstances reasoning their presence in this area are unknown until today. Her citizenship card of course never mentioned her real place of birth and, although it is said to be onboard the freighter, it's claimed to be in different part of Pennsylvania system. That's how her unusual life has started.

She has never been given a chance to study at university - as she was born in rather poor family. Her father was doing various odd jobs just to earn enough money to buy food, pay necessary bills and get a freighter for his daughter. The true fact about living in Sirius Sector is undeniable need for your own ship, if you want to mantain at least basic level of existance. Her father was a engineer, so he taught Anna everything he had known. This knowledge played a major role within her future life. She's been in need to repair her vessel not only once, and not only in peaceful conditions. Although she has never got high education, she spent rather practical life - there's been nothing she couldn't cope with if only provided with enough time.

Her early life was filled with spending most of her free time in a "Jackdaw" - class fighter - her first ship she truly owned. She took some major tasks and earned some money that way. Her next and final choice has been a "Pelican" - class freighter - vessel of versatile usage, one capable of delivering and resisting damage, also of transporting quite significant amounts of cargo inside its bays. This ship has been a salvation in the future. Although she officially bought the "Pelican", she has never gotten rid of her previous toy, the "Jackdaw". It's just been sold to Mark - an anonymous and harmless freelancer, citizen of Erie and her loyal friend yet since times of their secondary school.

These events have been an end of her 'luxury' and stabilized life. She lost her job in a small civilian trading corporation and was forced to run out of the world, which has been her only one for ages. She took everything she could and put it into Pelican's bays. She had no home in fact, as the small flat she lived in on Erie was only a rented one. She's met with Mark at one of Erie's darker streets and said "official" goodbye before leaving both the planet and Liberty space for a few years with a silent song at her mouth...

She became a nomad, a person withno any home and place to stay longer than for a few days. She made her income from piracy and slept occasionally at various freeports or even in space in her own Pelican's room, which had been her safe hideout in difficult situations. She got used to her new life, as there was no return nor even a chance for better future. Although she's been a pirate, she's been rather a peaceful one and fought only if it couldn't be avoided. She has never been in favor of violence and always prefered to work out some better solutions instead. She's lived this life until she met Jack Scarrow, Frank Lee and all the people like her. They became her new family and people she sticked with since their first meeting. They've all been similiar, they all left their past behind and became nomads trying to survive the following day and wake up withno a knife in own chest. The same fate, which has accompanied her since her birth, has brought her back into Liberty's outskirts - into the Barrier Gate Station in Coronado system. The place has been a temporary enclave for various people, who crossed the sector in the time of being - both freelancers, rogues, outcasts, pirates and many more. They all lived in unstable peace either hiding from something or just doing some illegal business.

And her future was yet about to begin...
