I rolled for my stats, they turned out pretty well I think (toughness aside)! I do have a screenshot of the rolls along with timestamps that I can provide on request.
Decided to lean into the "spymaster" part of the career and went heavy on Peers. Maybe too heavy. Don't know!

Symonne is a bookish, sanguine woman hailing from Gudrun, one-time capitol of the Helican sub-sector. On that storied world, the Cipios are a minor noble house that makes most of their wealth through interstellar trade, as they lack the holdings and treaties of the more venerable houses. Due to the importance of trade Symonne was immersed in calculations and negotiations from a very early age, tutored by savants and introduced to all sorts of people.
Life was good for a noble on Gudrun, and Symonne grew up immersed in the Imperial Creed without ever seeing a xeno or Chaos manifestation (aside from the occasional mutant begging on the streets). Still, she became somewhat restless. She wanted to see other planets and forge new trade agreements, partly for her family's prosperity but mostly to secure a place for herself among the Gudrun elite. After some discussion with the house rulers, Symonne was granted leave to travel to the planet Sarum, a neighboring sub-sector's capitol, aboard the trading vessel Glory of Alfonso.
Symonne never made it to Sarum. Unbeknownst to herself of the house of Cipio, the Alfonso's captain acquired, just before departure, a map which supposedly led to untold riches deep within the Koronus Expanse. Overwhelmed by greed and failing to notify anyone, even his crew, of his sudden change in plans, the captain set course for fortune and glory without adequate preparation.
It was a long and desperate voyage, during which death or worse lurked in the dim passageways and the Gellar field flickered more than once. Supplies ran low, and the ship was thrown off course by warp storms. When the Glory of Alfonso finally limped into a safe harbor within the Expanse, more than half the crew had perished and Symonne was forever a changed woman. She had caught a glimpse of the terror lurking in the void, and while it did not break her she could never again go back to her old life. She ditched the Alfonso and never looked back, determined to find a new life and new renown in the Expanse.
Symonne tends to wear robes in various cuts and colors, and prefers corrective lenses rather than augmetic eyes. She appears to be in her mid-20s, though her noble upbringing would have afforded her quality juvenat treatments and she may be a good deal older. It's not polite to ask, though.
: "Hm, call it 'destiny' then. Or fate, or whatever you like. 
: "Perhaps a certain amount of recklessness is inherent when hunting for lost treasures in uncharted waters in order to avert global catastrophe. They do say that fortune favors the bold, after all!"
