Born into a life of poverty, Kryska spent much of her early years living in shared perpetual fear with her parents of their oppressive and corrupt planetary government, as her world was outside the confines and security of the Alliance's laws. Kryska's homeworld was located in the independent and, at that point, largely fragmented Neutral Rim, which was then locked in a state of chaos and upheaval in the wake of the New Empire crumbling. Note: (WARNING - Spoilers ahead for the plot of Sunrider: First Arrival, Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius, Sunrider: Liberation Day, Sunrider Academy & Sunrider: The Novelization. Of course, it is also possible that the Officer's uniform is just a formality to reflect her unique status as Alliance liaison In actual practice though, it is likely Asaga Oakrun - the first Ryder pilot to have actually joined the Sunrider - who serves as official CAG for the Sunrider. Due to no other ranking officers having been seen on the Sunrider thus far aside from Commander and First Officer Ava Crescentia and Captian Kayto Shields, it is possible that Kryska's rank makes her the effective third-in-command of the Sunrider, though only in technicality instead of practice, justifying why Kryska is allowed to wear an Officer's uniform instead of a crewman's uniform. Even though Kryska is officially just a liaison with the Sunrider, her rank as an Alliance 1st Lieutenant makes her the highest-ranking military official among the ship's Ryder pilots as she is the only one of them to have actually actively served in the military, effectively making her the ranking officer among the Ryder pilots in spite of having been the most recent addition. After arriving on the Sunrider, she eschews wearing the more common "sailor girl" crew uniform favored by most of the other females on the ship, instead dressing in a Ceran Space Force officer's uniform - a black naval force jacket with gold trim and matching belt, a knee-length black business skirt, black leggings and flat-soled black shoes.

Kryska's flight uniform is the standard armor-mesh Ryder flight-suit, colored jade-green. She is also prone to instances of dry sarcasm in which a small smirk can be seen on her expression. She tends to have a serious or stoic expression when on-duty, though she is capable of more lighthearted moments and is easily sympathetic to those in need. She has a modest figure and a well-built body, and while not as feminine-looking as, say, Claude Triello, she is arguably far more physically fit. Her short, wavy dark indigo-blue hair is styled in a somewhat boyish bob-cut, and her fair skin, honey-gold eyes and young-looking features do nothing to distract from her toned build. Spirit: She firmly believes in virtue, duty, humility and honesty.Īt twenty-two years of age by the Solar Alliance Standard-Calendar and standing taller then most women - enough to stand head-to-head with Kayto Shields - Kryska's appearance is both orderly yet tomboyish. Her English Voice Actress is Cayla Martin and her Japanese Voice Actor is Yumeno Usagi. She pilots the Paladin, a heavy tank-like limited-production/prototype Ryder specialized in fighting ships. The rest of the crew initially eyed her with suspicion, but the Captain is generally appreciative of Kryska and the Alliance’s support, and slowly the rest of the crew warmed up to her. Stern and focused, yet optimistic and tomboyish, Kryska is highly idealistic about the Alliance's doctrines, eager to share the Alliance’s democratic ideals and technical know-how with the “lesser” nations of the galaxy. Groomed to be an Alliance officer from childhood, Kryska is fiercely proud of the Alliance and believes it to be the greatest nation on galaxy. As an Alliance citizen and military official, Kryska’s presence was generally unwelcome on board the Sunrider. A young 1st lieutenant in the Solar Alliance Fleet, Kryska is the Alliance’s liaison officer aboard the Sunrider.
