Now I have seen her on screen in the movie and in the Star Fleet Encyclopedia she is called Trillya and is the communications officer for the Starship Shepard (their title, wonder if this is a USS ship? She is wearing a Starfleet uniform.). It also suggests in the text that she may have had a bit more screen time before the final cut.
That said does anyone know anything at all about her race or her character?
Thanks in advance.
