Anara Rysyl

In David Falkayn's Star Trek: Sutherland series, Lieutenant Anara Rysyl is one of an increasing number of Deltans who oppose Starfleet's requirement for Deltans to either swear the Oath of Celibacy or take pheromone inhibitors as being archaic and discriminatory. Anara is part of a growing political movement on her home world which calls for the abolition of the Oath of Celibacy. A most capable operations officer, she served as Operations Officer on the USS Sutherland from 2371 through 2376, eventually earning the rank of lieutenant commander. In 2376, she transferred to the Intrepid-class starship, USS Perseus where she served as first officer under the command of Captain Christopher Hobson. In 2381 she is promoted to captain and given command of the USS Rousseau.
