Ro Laren

Ro Laren is a recurring fictional character on Star Trek: The Next Generation, played by Michelle Forbes.

Ro Laren was also planned to be a main character in the following Star Trek television show, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The creators of Deep Space Nine wanted a strong-willed Bajoran character who would engender interpersonal conflict with the station's commander, Benjamin Sisko. However, Michelle Forbes turned down the role, so another Bajoran character named Kira Nerys was created instead.
