*Background:
Irina was born to a middle class family on Coruscant in 3,660 BBY. She grew up surrounded by Republic propaganda and took numerous educational classes that debated the finer points of an Imperial v. Republican government and came to the conclusion that the current Republic was near perfect. As she began to survey the Cold War that had "raged" around her her entire life, she came to realize that she would gladly fight and die if necessary to protect the people around her from the tyranny of the Sith Empire.
At the legal age limit of 17, she enlisted in the Army of the Republic where she easily outclassed her comrades with superior strength, endurance and intelligence. Upon graduation from basic training, she was offered a commission as the squad sergeant of Havoc Squad. After serving with distinction for three years during a number of border skirmishes (and even major assaults that were hushed up), she was offered the opportunity to create a squad of her own. Thus, Juno Squad came into being.
Now she serves the Republic by leading Juno Squad around the borders of Republic space, threatening to (and sometimes actually) engage Imperial border parties who get a little too nosy.
