She is never without a cigarette in her mouth, a perpetual chain smoker who is either awake and smoking, or off in a corner somewhere sleeping, preferably in the cockpit of her ship. She has a fair complexion with light tan marks around her eyes from a pair of goggles and a look that would mark her as attractive if it wasn't for the grease marks and minor cuts and scrapes that usually reside on her face, hands, and arms. During her time away from the aerodrome, she wears a short dress, coming down to her knees or on occasion a men's three piece suit.

Background:
The daughter of a family who after the first interdimentional war went into a family business, her older brother a retired war veteran and pilot, and father an enterpeneur who sought to earn a pretty penny by taking advantage of the options offered in the land of trade and cargo hauling to assist the areas rebuilding after the battles of the first interdimentional war. Her mother was a supportive housewife who took care of the advertisements and negotiations where they would perform along with their finances.

Aminah worked with her family until she broke out on her own after having saved up a fine sum of money she set out to find new jobs in the field while her family settled back down in Armstrong City their new riches.

Aminah went on with her partner and mechanic, Elizabeth Martin in search for a job anywhere that her ship would take her. Their travels first brought them to Shangri-la where they started running goods and people between major areas of the surviving North American cities, mainly Shangri-la and the Co-op, but occasionally flights to the moon to Armstrong City. This was one of her slow times where she managed to pick up on the inner workings of the ships she flew, as well as trained on different classes of ships that she was able to get her hands on.

After the breakout of the second interdimentional war, Elizabeth has opted to stay behind on the Imaginos station where they set up shop with contracts running supplies from the war front and back. She currently has a set of robot droids for maintenance and loading/unloading supplies as well as a small contingent of Space Marines for security while planetside.
