Personality	Once a happy carefree soul, M'Giia is now a shadow of her former self due to events from the past five years. She is more shy and is easily upset when confronted with challenges she's not used to. That was the old Elrise, now she had blossomed into a first rate officer and the care free and happy soul is back with a vengeance. Much of this is to do with meeting the love of her life Kyle and in some part his daughter Laren. She had a family now!
Background	M'Giia was born on Earth to a Human Mother who put her up for adoption because of her Andorian Heritage. Her Adoptive parents allowed her to keep her Andorian name and chose to give her their late daughters first name. Growing up in Ireland was a great experience for M'Giia who regularly visited the Starfleet Outpost in her Hometown of Dublin. Her early affinity for Languages and her photographic memory gave her the advantage when applying for the Academy and completing final Exams and because of this, she earned the Uhura Degree of Communications with honours and spent her first six months as an Ensign posted at the Subspace Relay outpost orbiting Jupiter. She was quickly recognised at the station and was soon posted on an Akira Class USS Whitfield. Tragedy struck however when the Whitfield was attacked by a Breen armada. She and surviving crew were taken prisoner by the Breen who submitted them to Neural Shock torture for several months. A rescue Armada lead by Captain Edward Jellico of the USS Cairo rescued the prisoners and returned them to Federation space. After months of treatment at a Starfleet Medical Rehabilitation Institute for a further two years to adjust to having to use a Cordical Implant to keep her Neural Pathways stable for the rest of her life. After returning to duty she joined the crew of the USS Repulse. The former Captain of the Repulse was charged with taunting her about her past and her Hybrid ancestry, which affected her greatly and she was ready to resign her commission until she received transfer orders to join the USS London's crew. She accepted because Captain Uvar, the ship's CO is Andorian and she feels that he may be able to teach her more about Andorian's and bring balance to her life. Sometime after joining the London, she met the new Security Chief and worked closely with him installing a new secure communications array, she fell in love with him, but struggled with her feelings. He knew much of Andor due to him being a member of the Trachka and this helps the relationship along. He reciprocated her feeling and for the first time in years she knew love. She is now happily married to Kyle Steiner and step-mother to his daughter Laren.
