Born on the 7th of May in San Marino, Kiana lived most of her childhood quietly in a loving family. She went to school, met new friends, and liked to go near the water to hear the sound of the ocean. Unfortunately, her life got worse at the age of 18 when her parents got killed by the mafia during an attack.
Kiana went to live with her aunt until age 19. She decided to join the military and enlisted in the Italian Special Forces, training to become a combat medic. Helping others and patching up was always her dream since she was a kid. In 2013-14 she starts dating her Lieutenant, Ivan “Nightmare” Romanov, both deeply in love with each other despite the age gap between them. When Ivan goes MIA in 2017, it breaks Kiana deeply. The people she loves disappear, and she knows something is wrong with her Captain Enrico Bianchi. Betray cuts deep after she found out the real story: Ivan wasn’t dead, but his squad got betrayed and cut off during the mission by Bianchi who used the disaster to cover his own failure.
Kiana refused to accept the story and began digging into Bianchi's records. She realised the corrupt network was connected to the Italian mafia. She cuts ties with her team to operate on solo for a year. Her findings brought her to Las Almas in 2019. After helping Los Vaqueros pull off a high-risk counter-ambush against cartel forces, Alejandro recruited her into the team. She levels up in 2021, earning the Lieutenant rank.
