Other Information: Kat was born on Darkover, daughter of a Darkovan woman
and a Terranen man. Her mother was the sister of Colin Scott's mother.
The two children were raised together until Colin's parents left Darkover
when he was eight. Kat's father worked in intelligence and insisted that
his daughter would gain a proper Terranen education. When she showed
symptoms of threshold sickness, he reluctantly agreed to Kat going into the
tower for a brief period. She was discovered to have a strong Alderan gift
and a minor amount of Ridenow empathy, just enough to sense the emotions of
people if they are strong. Kat learned how to play the rryl from her
mother and her father had a piano imported to teach her Terran music. Kat
did well in her musical talents and was offered many scholarships off
planet for her academic achievements. When she was 17, however, her world
came crashing to a halt when her parents were killed while travelling in a
shuttle. It was viewed as a terrorist attack. Kat's Darkovan relatives,
insisted that she should be placed in a tower and learn how to use her
Alderan gifts correctly. In addition, a di catenas marriage was arranged
for her. Kat weighed her options and chose NYU as her school to attend.
As a free Darkovan citizen, Kat left Darkover and has no desire to return.
Since that time she has risen to the top levels in her chosen profession.
She is a gifted musician who claims that the instruments speak to her
telling her what to play. She teaches music at the University three days a
week and spends the rest of her time with the Philharmonic.
