Revision as of 14:21, 31 October 2014
Devna was a female Orion who originally worked with the Orion Syndicate, and who later became a member of the ruling Elysian Council, serving as their interpreter of laws. (TAS episode & novelization: The Time Trap)
Description
Despite her young appearance, Devna was in fact centuries old, due to Elysia's temporal distortion. She longed to see her homeworld of Orion again, though she had come to accept her life in Elysia. Devna was an accomplished dancer, with a classically primal Orion style, at odds with her normally calm and formal demeanor. (TAS episode & novelization: The Time Trap)
She was scrawnier than other Orion slave girls, and seemed more demure, which was all the more appealing to some of her customers, especially those who wanted to feel dominant. Her pheremones are very potent, though not nearly as powerful as those of the Elites. This allowed her to influence many powerful figures. (ENT novel: A Choice of Futures)
History
22nd century
Devna was part of an Orion plot to bring down the nascent Federation. Working as an erotic masseuse, she attracted the attention of Min glasch Noar. The two began sleeping together, and during their nightly visits Devna used her influence to sway him toward favoring a more aggressive stance in the Federation's dealings with the mysterious aliens known as "Mutes". However, this plan was discovered, and before Devna could escape into obscurity, she was confronted by Charles Tucker III of Section 31. He was able to convince her to reveal what she knew, and she willingly told him part of the plan. He let her go, and she gave him a kiss before she went. (ENT novel: A Choice of Futures)
23rd century
Sometime before the mid-23rd century, became trapped in the interdimensional rift known as Elysia. There, she eventually became a member of the ruling council there. (TAS episode: "The Time Trap")
When the USS Enterprise was pulled into Elysia, Devna advised Captain James T. Kirk that there was no escape from Elysia, but he resolved to try anyway, and succeeded. (TAS episode: "The Time Trap")
24th century
