Some background: Tristi is a cybernetic human (CH for short). This basically means she is human flesh grown on a cybernetic skeleton. The skeleton is a computer of sorts which allows her to store and download data (especially skill data like flying a star ship). She is one of the three models of CHs sold throughout the galaxy (humanity has become a galactic level species at this point) Chs of her particular model are called "Blues." Blues are generally used for science and technology tasks. Blue models are commonly used for flying ships, controlling factories, and medical and gene sciences. Tristi however isn't in service of anyone and is a rare example of a rouge CH (Chs have little to no independence and are thought to be equal to ais).
