Akuta was the leader of the race that inhabited the planet Gamma Trianguli VI.
History[]
As leader of his people, he wore antennae so he could hear commands from Vaal, their god. Vaal felt that the USS Enterprise's landing party was a threat and instructed Akuta to kill them. Among his people, Akuta was known as "the eyes of Vaal." (TOS episode: "The Apple")
Following his people discovering everyday ways of life, Akuta started a small group who continued to believe in Vaal. For twenty years Akuta and his group survived against Makora and his people. In 2286, he assisted USS Enterprise-A officer, Ensign Konom in rescuing Bryce and Captain Kirk's landing party. (TOS - The Return of the Serpent comics: "Paradise Lost!", "Past Perfect", "Devil Down Below!")
