  • She was also a resident of Dorvan V as Chakotay had been and stayed on the planet after he had left to join Starfleet. She is described as looking a lot like her brother, so much so, in fact, that they could be twins. She also has a facial tattoo similar to her father's and brother's. Further, she also uses a medicine bundle as her brother does but the contents are very different. Her animal guide is in the form of a majestic deer and her place of meditation while using the medecine bundle is a pine forest. For the most part, the siblings seem to have close relationship. The one exception to this are when Sekaya expresses mild disdain for the fact, in her opinion, that Chakotay had only returned to their people's ways out of guilt and pain over the loss of their father. It is mentioned that both her and her brother would go to what they considered their secret place which was a swimming hole near their home when they were young. This was the place that they traveled to after her brother's return home. It is revealed that she began a romantic relationship with a man from another Native American tribe apart from hers named Blue Water Dreamer. Both she and her brother had been friends with him when they were children. It was during the course of her relationship with Blue Water Dreamer that the Cardassians arrived demanding that the people of Dorvan 5 submit to medical testing under the direction of the scientist Crell Moset. Unknown to the people of the planet the Cardassians where looking for those people who exhibited signs of Sky Spirit DNA. The Cardassian's goal was to discover what potenial the DNA held for telepathic and telekenetic powers among other things. The DNA they sought had been infused into the people of Dorvan 5 while they lived on Earth thousands of years ago by the traveling Sky Spirit aliens. However the purity of the DNA had been dilutted over the course of many generations and finding a pure enough concentration had proved difficult. In the end, Blue Water Dreamer was found to have sufficent concentrations of the DNA within himself and was killed in the course of the scientific experiments performed on him. When he did not come to the family home to undergo the courting rituals to formally ask her father's permission to become involved with her Sekaya was heartbroken. She eventually found out what had happened to him and this amongst other things led the people of Dorvan V to rebel. After these events, Sekaya trained as a Shaman and sought to make a bigger impact then just working in her tribe. Her activities or other assignments prior to being recruited to work with the Loran II colonists is not known. (VOY novels: Homecoming, Old Wounds, Enemy of My Enemy)
