Biography[]
She was a trader who worked to provide weapons to the white Phaedans and Robert "Bobby" April. In a 2259 visit to Phaedus IV, Mudd met the crew of the USS Enterprise and assisted Nyota Uhura in reaching the planet from orbit. After rescuing a shot-down landing party, Mudd and April returned to the vessel, where April locked out the crew from the ship's systems and the pair took control of the bridge.

Afterwards, April contacted the Klingon commanders on Qo'noS, offering them the Enterprise in exchange for making him governor of Phaedus IV. When he found out how Kirk and Spock were making their way through the jefferies tubes, April had bulkheads activated to seal them off. Scotty managed to disable Protocol 31, and Kirk and Spock subdued April and Mudd before he could hand the Enterprise to Commander Kor. April was placed in Starfleet custody at a starbase, but Marcus and Pike covered up the Phaedus IV incident and Protocol 31, much to Kirk's chagrin.

Mudd had been in a competition for trade with her father, Harry Mudd. In 2263, she joined Mudd's Company however, to work with her father and eventually take over from him. At the time, Harry had joined forces with Khan Noonien Singh's Augments and aliens from Altamid. (ST video game: Fleet Command)
