Captain Tryla Scott was a Human female serving in Starfleet and the Commanding officer of the USS Renegade. By 2364, she was the youngest Starfleet officer to attain the rank of captain, which made her something of a legend.

In 2364, Scott met with fellow captains Jean-Luc Picard, Rixx, and Walker Keel at Dytallix B to discuss the infiltration of Starfleet Command by Parasites. However, Scott was subsequently infested by a parasite. While under its control, she attacked Picard and William Riker inside Starfleet Headquarters. Riker was forced to fire at her with a high-setting phaser blast, upon which the parasite fled her body. (TNG episode: "Conspiracy")

In 2375, it was discovered there were no traceable authorization codes attributed to the orders that gave Scott her first command. It was theorized by Captain Picard that Scott's career, as well as the career of many other Starfleet officers, were manipulated by the entities known as the Preservers in order to have certain people where they needed to be at certain times. Whatever purpose the Preservers may or may not have had for Scott is unknown, as she was killed before her potential was fulfilled. (ST novel: Preserver)
