Cerise traveled the universe as part of the recruitment team for the intergalactic Shi'ar empire offering the opportunity to join the empire. However, when the commander of her team decided to annihilate the races they contacted instead of recruiting them, Cerise aimed her ship at the nearest star and sent it on a collision course. She escaped and was stranded on Earth. When news of her "crime" reached her home world Cerise was tried and convicted for the deaths of her crew members. Cerise was unaware of her conviction until the Starjammers took her to a prison planet to serve her sentence. After a while, Lilandra, the Shi'ar Majestrix, arrived on the planet and Cerise was allowed to explain her actions. She was immediately pardoned and offered an advisory position on Lilandra's staff.
