Rana Desai was a human Starfleet officer in the 23rd century, attached to the Starfleet Judge Advocate General office. Born circa 2225, she became an expert in interstellar law. As of 2265, she was assigned as head of the JAG office on Starbase 47, where she was often called upon to balance Federation law and the realities of frontier life.
Rana was romantically involved with station commander Diego Reyes, and her position as JAG officer frequently put the two at odds. Rana was enraged when Reyes told her the truth about the meta-genome, the real reason for Starfleet's presense in the Taurus Reach, believing the colonization efforts in the region to be a lie, a part of a cover-up of Starfleet's true purpose.
