==History==
 
==History==
Oma was youngest child of Vladimir Kurita and was thought to have been killed in the same terrorist attack on [[Rasalhague]] by rebels from the [[Principality of Rasalhague]] in December [[2375]] that killed most of her branch of the [[House Kurita|Kurita]] family. She was eighteen years old at that time although her body was not found among the dead.<ref name="HK">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 28: "Tenno's Reign"</ref>

She was youngest child of Vladimir Kurita and was though dead in the same terrorist attack on [[Rasalhague]] by rebels from the [[Principality of Rasalhague]] in December [[2375]] that killed most of the family branch. She was 18-years old at that time though her body not found among the dead.<ref name="HK">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', "TENNO’S REIGN"</ref>
 
 
Oma had actually been taken captive by the rebels during the attack, and when word of Oma's fate became known in [[2377]], [[Adam Kurita]] led the rescue operation. After several harrowing encounters and an exhaustive firefight, Oma and her newborn son, [[Daniel Sorenson I|Daniel]], returned to the safety of [[New Samarkand]]. Oma apparently had fallen in love with [[Jan Sorenson (24th c.)|Jan Sorenson]], the High Chieftain of her captors, and in a strange and fortuitous turn of [[w:Stockholm syndrome|Stockholm syndrome]], married him. Jan was killed during the rescue mission.
 
  
Oma never recovered from grief for her husband, sinking deep into an addiction to absinthe. At only forty years of age, she died in 2397 from chronic liver failure and related complications.<ref name="HHKp22">''Handbook: House Kurita'', p. 22: "Seeds of Discontent"</ref>

Oma's son Daniel would go on to seize control of the Principality of Rasalhague with assistance from two of his Kuritan cousins, overthrowing [[Jason Kurita]], serving as Lord with the goal of ending all oppression of its citizens and offering opposition to [[Nihongi von Rohrs]] following the [[2421]] coup that saw Nihongi seize the Draconis Combine throne.<ref name=HHKp24>''Handbook: House Kurita'', pp. 24–25: "Viper in the Nest"</ref>
