Mara

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

For other uses, see Mara (disambiguation).

Mara was a Klingon female who lived in the 23rd century. She was the wife of Captain Kang, and also served side-by-side with him, both as science officer (TOS episode: "Day of the Dove") and later as first officer. (TOS eBook: The Blood-Dimmed Tide)

While Kang often acted impulsively, Mara took it upon herself to be a calming influence, forcing him to pause and think through his actions.

In 2291, when Kang needed to extract information from renegade Klingon Captain Klaa, Mara proposed that Spock, who had been charged to investigate overtures of cooperation between the Federation and the Klingons, engage in a mind meld with him.

That same year, Mara became pregnant with her and Kang's first child. She later gave birth to a son, who was named DaqS, son of Kang. A few years later, DaqS was murdered by the Albino.(DS9 episode: "Blood Oath", TOS eBook: The Blood-Dimmed Tide, and TLE novel: Forged in Fire).

The Fotonovel (#10) by Mandala Productions strangely obscures the features of Mara (played by Susan Howard) in all scenes where she is depicted.
