to her life, then left her, is back–this time for the worst of reasons. Will he
kill her … or help her survive?

company of a lovely, warm woman, only to be pulled away from her, back into his
solitary life in the service of the Red Lady. Now Twilka’s within his reach
again–for all the wrong reasons. Khevan will do everything within his power to
discover why Twilka has been targeted for assassination, and to save her.

Please provide a
physical description of yourself.

Depends on the day and my mood! Usually about 5’5″,
brown eyes, good figure, hair brunette but subject to change on a whim.

Please tell us a
little about yourself.

I’m one of 37 children – my father is a generational
billionaire and has had many wives and girlfriends. I used to spend all my time
pleasure seeking and going wherever the excitement was to be found in the
galaxy, but after surviving the titanic wreck of the cruise liner Nebula Dream,
I realized I was capable of doing so much more. I established my own business
as a fashion designer. Yes, I took a loan from my Dad, but I gave him a
detailed business plan and have since paid him back. Sometimes I appear in
trideo entertainments (equivalent to your movies) as myself. My earlier
reputation as a ‘celebrity’ helps the business.

Who is the significant other in your life?

Khevan, a member of the D’nvannae Brotherhood. We fell in
love during the catastrophic events of the Nebula Dream, but then he left me
with no explanation…until we meet again at the start of Star Survivor.

How do you dress?

In the height of interstellar fashion, as decreed by me.
(Twilka laughs) I source unusual materials from many worlds and try to give
back by commissioning local women to create special designs, fabrics and
accessories for my collections. I like dramatic clothes that capture attention,
although I can be found in a simple cotton dress and sandals if the situation
requires it. I don’t do gimmicks but find my inspiration in the art, natural
wonders and culture of planets I visit. I try to be respectful and mindful of
the local beliefs and traditions.

Are you book-smart, self-taught,
widely-experienced?

Mostly self taught and widely experienced. Watching my
father and my older brothers and sisters work in the Sectors corporate world
taught me so much. My Dad would discuss business at the dinner table when he
was home, and sometimes took us younger kids to the office or on business trips
to observe. He intended for various of his offspring to take over different
aspects of his corporate empire. Of course then I did the teenage rebellion
thing! My years of traveling with fellow rich kids and idle celebrities were a
school of hard knocks and dumb choices leading to my learning through
consequences. I’ve also had some amazing mentors since I started my own
business.

Do you get by, live comfortably,
live extravagantly?

Classic poor little rich girl here. Never appreciated my
good fortune properly until I survived the wreck and then decided to have my
own business. Now that I make my own credits and pay my own bills, I’m much
more sensible about what luxuries I give myself, and I try to give back on the
worlds where I obtain my fabrics and accessories. A certain portion of profits
from Zabour Designs goes to worthy projects, different on each planet,
depending what they need most.

On what special skills
do you rely?

I’ve always been able to draw and paint, and since I was a
child I’d sketch clothing and accessories. I love to design. Even when the
situation is at its worst in Star Survivor, I try to handle my stress by doing
new drawings. I’m good with people, I understand business and I’ve learning I’m
very good in a crisis situation. Not much rattles me.

If someone from your past showed up, who would you most want
it to be, and why?

For five years I dreaded meeting Khevan again, since he’d
left me with no explanation and returned to the service of the Red Lady, the
goddess he served. Yet on the other hand, I longed to give him a piece of my
mind…and maybe a second chance. So when we did encounter each other at the
beginning of the adventure known as Star Survivor, I had so many mixed emotions
to deal with.

What past event causes
you the most fear?

I used to have terrible flashbacks to certain events that
happened during the wreck of the Nebula Dream, but if Khevan and I were going
to survive the Red Lady’s wrath in Star Survivor, I literally had to face those
fears and overcome them. The advantage I had this time – besides Khevan’s love
– was that I know myself now and how strong I really.
