Background
Often teased as a child, Geordi was hoped by her father to be a son… one that would do something more significant than grow up to be a baker. Still, despite her gender, her father decided it would be best for her to start an apprenticeship at his repair shop, which is where she worked most of her young life. Later, she took a job as a janitor at one of the many flight academies, as Junkers are regarded as some of the lowest in society; little else was open to her. There one of the mechanical engineer teachers took note of her, when she was able to solve a problem with a starship’s engine that was intended for the graduate class to fix. He asked if she would be interested in a unique program which would involve working with many new exotic starship designs. She gleefully and ignorantly accepted, eager to move up, propelled by hopes and promises. In reality this program was in the experimental stages… something to do with inserting fresh Junkers into Sirius without the “native” Junkers even suspecting where they were from. Over the next few months she visited several institutions and stations where she saw a wide variety of special instructors, studying everything from basic sociology to advanced techniques for minefield breaching. Somewhere in those months of training, assumed to be near the conclusion of the program, she was taken for special mental conditioning which was supposedly necessary. For nearly an entire day she was subject to specialized mental conditioning and reprogramming techniques. No real records of her old behavior or personality really exist any longer, but she was conditioned to act more like a Libertonian and blend in outside of Gallia. The Libertonian behavior modifications included excessive amounts of sarcasm and sardonic elements in conversation (she certainly is annoying… proper jack arse), and a lack of any refined etiquette… same level of care for personal hygiene as well. She just isn’t very ladylike. She doesn’t seem to mind, reasons for her to like her new behavior and personality were also included in the conditioning. In addition she learned the Libertonian language; in fact it was engraved into her mind, so much so that her knowledge of the French language suffered to the point where it was a chore to even speak it. It’s also worth noting that Geordi Forbes was not her birth name, but again another conditioning. She was able to pick out what new name she wanted, but she did not realize that she would lose any recollection of what her real birth name was (supposedly to conceal her origin). It was a bit hard to get used to, but she seems to have adjusted rather well. Although she does get a twinge of sorrow when she thinks about how she lost her former self. After her conditioning and instructions, a group of Junkers smuggled her out through the minefields out to Orkney and onto a Zoner base in the Taus. There she was able to get transport down to Beaumont base in the form of a smuggler’s freighter. There she started her work collecting and renewing information for the Crown, more specifically starship internal components and engine designs. Her job as a mechanic in the Junkers made it easy to get to a ship’s internal systems, just as long as she was hired to repair the ship or finds a derelict.
Current Operations
Currently she is operating out of Junker bases in the Sirius sector. Generally her repair skills are second to none, usually only being outperformed by a crew of trained House Military mechanics. In addition to her work repairing ships, she also hires herself out to merchants as an escort. This also allows her to record the movement of goods throughout Sirius. She has fallen in with a variety of crowds ranging from Corsairs, the Bretonians, and even Orbital Spa and Cruise (a few escorts in exchange for a week’s stay on a Luxury Liner). Despite collecting information for the Crown being her main objective… that has fallen to a background task, something that happens automatically without much effort on her part. Her new personality seems to have taken a liking to the idea of getting rich out in Sirius as a more acceptable long term goal. She was able to do far better in Sirius than she was ever able to do in Gallia. She is still pro-Crown, but she isn’t patriotic about it, she would not die for the Crown, that’s for sure. She is most commonly found operating out of Rochester, Yanagi, and planet Leeds.
Ship
Geordi flies the CSV II Collector ship called the Rafale. Mainly she uses it as a base of operations for her repair work, as well as a general utility craft. Space combat has been limited in her journeys, but her ship is heavily armed and armored for a small utility craft. Most notable would be the pair of prototype Solaris Photon Blasters mounted to each side of the main hull. Smaller Junker photon blasters provide supporting firepower. To finish off any remaining threats, a torpedo launcher and ammunition racks have been added to the ship’s dorsal heavy mount. The large cargo bay severely dampens the maneuverability of the Rafale, but it holds the necessary replacement engine parts and hull panels, along with her belongings. Her only remaining ties to Gallia is a concealed plasma pistol hidden in her ship’s cockpit and a small Fleur-de-lis tattoo on the back of her neck. Usually it is hidden by the turtleneck of her jumpsuit, but those who have seen it have made no such connection. The remaining technology, equipment, clothing, food, etc... on the ship was provided by the Libertonian Junkers.

OoC: Please note I will not tolerate abuse of this information. She is supposed to remain as a Junker… the spy part should not be known to other characters >outside< Gallia. Also I would like to thank my friend Beth for the beautiful picture of Geordi you see here http://queen-dedede.deviantart.com/art/AT-Geordi-128304624
