Aeka is the First Crown Princess of the planet Jurai. She has a younger sister named Sasami, and she is the daughter of Azusa, Emperor of Jurai, and Misaki, the Second Queen of Jurai.
Aeka is 720 years old, although 700 of those years were spent in suspended animation. Aeka was on a journey to find half-brother Yousho, whom she was supposed to marry (such marriages were allowed on Jurai). Yousho had left Jurai in pursuit of the pirate Ryouko, and Aeka, after waiting many years for his return, left Jurai to find him. Her ship, the Ryu-oh, awoke her from her suspended state when it discovered signs of Ryouko's presence on Earth. Just then the warrant for Ryouko's arrest had expired, but nothing would stop Aeka who saw this as an opportunity to make Ryouko pay for taking Yousho away from her. Aeka's ship then teleports Tenchi's home containing Ryouko--as well as Tenchi and his family--into her ship. However, Ryouko escapes with Tenchi, and, summoning her own pirate ship Ryo-ohki, attacks Aeka. Both ships become heavily damaged in the attack, and they crash on Earth next to the Masaki shrine. Thus Aeka and Sasami, who accompanied her sister in the search for Yousho, were stranded on Earth, and accepting Tenchi's offer, took residence at the Masaki residence, which was deposited in close proximity to the Shrine.
Aeka at first could not adjust to life on Earth, but after a few moments with the new Ryo-ohki, Ryouko's spaceship in the form of a cute creature called a "cabbit" (a cross between a cat and a rabbit), and also a couple of touching moments with Tenchi, she begins to cheer up. Upon learning that Tenchi was the descendant of her half-brother Yousho, Aeka begins to accept him even more, and even asks for him to be her and Sasami's guardian on their search for their long lost half-brother. Aeka ultimately falls for Tenchi, and upon learning that Yousho is in fact Tenchi's old grandfather, Aeka becomes determined to gain the love of Tenchi. Unfortunately, Ryouko, Aeka's old rival, also has her sights on Tenchi, and this leads to many comic, and sometimes not so comic, clashes between the two. However, as the series progresses a hidden friendship between Aeka and Ryouko sometimes does surface, and when they actually do work together on occassion they are nearly unbeatable.
Aeka is very formal in the way she deals with things. She is very polite, quiet, and has impeccable manners.
She is also modest, and she is usually dressed in the Juraian kimono. When she gets around Ryouko, however, she
can be quite angry and violent, especially if Ryouko is making moves on "her Tenchi". Being a Juraian princess,
she possesses the power to create force fields and to employ a force punch. She also has her two guardians, Azaka
and Kamidake, who resemble huge pillars of wood. She generally gets along very well with everyone in the household
(besides Ryouko), and she and Sasami share a strong sisterly bond. She also helps with chores around the house
(except cooking, whick she has little talent for a la Akane of Ranma 1/2 fame), mostly to gain Tenchi's favor. She
is very much in love with Tenchi, and she is willing to do just about anything (though not to the "physical extent" that Ryouko
is willing to go), including risking her life for the sake of Tenchi's safety, to get Tenchi to think of her more than just a member of the family.
