Malesa Norabi was a 23rd century Human, a Starfleet veteran. Norabi had previously served aboard a Constitution-class Federation starship.
In the year 2267, terminally ill, Norabi helped hijack the USS Enterprise at the command of a fellow Starfleet Veterans' Hospital patient named En-Lai, but Kirk suspected that Norabi would be granted clemency for the crime. When En-Lai diverted the Enterprise to Calydon, Norabi's illness was completely healed by the lady of Calydon. (TOS comic: "A Small Matter of Faith")
