Background
Halena Tremaine is the Chief Engineer for the Orion, recently transferred over from the Light Cruiser Cygnus where she was also their Chief Engineer. Cygnus picked up Halena from the surface of Caprica on War Day, where she was heavily injured and still walks with a slight limp as a result. She also lost her father and her husband that day, though her three brothers are still MIA.
Prior to War Day, Halena was stationed on Caprica with her husband — a move likely induced by her father (a prominent Naval Commander) and her mother (a famous Caprican socialite). While she grew up as a debutante herself, the call to military service that her father and three brothers all followed was too great to be ignored and she too joined the ranks after receiving her MA in mechanical engineering. Engineering work was a surprising change for a woman of finery, but eventually the choice was viewed as an eccentricity by her mother and other members of Caprican society who knew her.
Since War Day, the charming and outgoing Halena has been replaced with a woman more reserved and thoughtful. She works all hours, and while she no longer has the presence to carry a room (or a command) with ease, she relies on her intelligence and doggedness to work her through interpersonal situations.
