Here's what I have. Some of this (for example, the number of feats) is probably wrong. Once I get the class information, I'll formalize this. If there's any other racial stuff I need (language, appearance, etc.), please let me know. Sorry I don't have the books! :-\ Stuff in brackets (in the history) will be figured out later. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Otherwise, I'll get to it later.
If any of the names (particularly planets) seem improbable, let me know.
Also, I'd appreciate it if someone would roll me a random height and weight (and appearance, if T20 does that). I don't know the general Aslan racial stuff, so I don't want to make something up.
Thanks again to everyone who helped me out with background information. I really appreciate it!

History
Ktarlewaweikye Os Tehlayew Olui grew up in a moderately rigid hierarchical society.
Hryo was not as bad as some more "backwards" planets, but women were expected not to fight, and men were expected not to think. She came from a fairly well-to-do family, and her childhood was happy and she lacked for nothing except the pet afeahyalhtow she always wanted. She went directly into undergraduate studies after high school and matriculated with honors and a degree in biology. She applied to graduate school, but only did so half-heartedly, and when she was not accepted, only her parents were disappointed. She was glad, because it meant she had an excuse to ship out with her cousin, Eteasteah, and see some of the universe she'd read so much about. The two chartered a small space-faring vessel, the
Eaia, and spent a year running messages and packages and dodging pirates. There were no
real pirates, though their ship almost got impounded when they ran afoul in an asteriod belt that, although not on any of their maps (admittedly not the
most recent versions), was claimed by a Nells mining company. Ktarlewaweikye mostly cowered off-screen in fear of what might happen, and what dishonor that might cause, while Eteasteah negotiated with the Humans. Eteasteah argued semantics and galactic law until the Humans were too bored to continue, and while she never showed any of that knowledge or ability ever again, Ktarlewaweikye could never shake the suspicion that her cousin was much more than she seemed. After that first year, Eteasteah decided to settle with a suspicious-looking ruffian and left Ktarlewaweikye on her own. It wasn't hard, however, for a bright young woman to find berth on a ship, and she worked the next three years in relative anonymity, seeing much of the universe but none of her home planet.
Finally, the wanderlust left her, and she decided to muster out when the crew reached a fairly hospitable multi-racial world. The floridly-named Last Hope Before the Fall was a a jump or two away from many major routes, and therefore was diverse, but not as open as a capitol planet or trade center. She accepted the High Passage she was given, but decided to "save" it for later, and settled on the new world. She applied and was accepted to a prominent medical school, where she spent a year learning the basics of xeno-biology. Right before her second term exams, word reached her that her father was deathly ill. Upset and confused, she barely passed the exams and returned home on the first veseel she found, using the High Passage she had earned the year prior. Once she got home, she realized there was no way she could finish her studies at Hope University, and cancelled her enrollment. Her father passed away the next week. The mourning took the requisite 6 days, and then the family moved on as best it could. Ktarlewaweikye, angry with herself for not being home the last several years, vowed not to leave and, when a family friend invited Ktarlewaweikye to join the biology program at her university, accepted. She graduated with a master's in biology, and immediately continued toward her doctorate. Two years later, she was finished. Her research led her to find an innovative solution to a previously-stymying genetic breakdown, and her thesis ("Homeopathic Medicine in the Space Age: Solving the Genetic Puzzles") granted her honors.
Having spent an exhausting four years living and studying at home, Ktarlewaweikye decided to pursue her studies, but elsewhere. She booked Working Passage to a nearby world, and filled in as the medic on a small Aslan courier. The trip was uneventful, with only the occasional space sickness or ship bug to treat. On the planet Post, she graduated from the xeno-biology program at the ranking university with honors. Her doctoral dissertation was entitled "
Samshkarkh: Vargr Medicine and Its Effects on Aslan Technique," for though Humans are populous, her inbred cultural distate made her choose not to study them. She is not strongly prejudiced, but she often wonders why the Humans (and the Vargr, for that matter, though the Humans are less civilized) allow their women to fight and their men to practice medicine. She now holds two medical doctorates and is qualified to treat both Aslan and Vargr.
The decision to enter the lottery was made on a whim. Ktarlewaweikye had not really expected to win, even with her abilities, and expected to spend a few more rotations on this planet before leaving as a medic on an Aslan (or Vargr) ship, and ultimately settling down on an Aslan world and teaching medicine at the prominent university. Therefore, her interest in the trip is slight, and she has been spending the past few weeks reading up on the latest medical news and corresponding with her family. Her mother and brothers and sister are all well, pursuing their lives on Hryo. There are rumors that her oldest brother is planning on leaving the planet, to ship out on a merchant vessel. The decision has caused ripples in the family hierarchy, as he's made it clear he had no interest in maintaining the estate when their mother passed away. Her sister, the next eldest, has announced her willingness to take the reins, but no one expects her to do well, for her lack of business acumen is renowned. Eteasteah, the cousin, did indeed marry the ne'er-do-well, and they are leading a relatively quiet life on some unnamed planet (unnamed by Eteasteah, that is), raising their infant and, Ktarlewaweikye is sure, plotting their next big disaster.
