'''Desiree D'lene''' (portrayed by [[Leila Johnson]]) aka '''Medea Zimri''' out of Isabella by Zarathustra and one of the last survivors of the [[Kodiak]] pride. She is a [[Nietzschean]] who pretends to be [[Human]].<br>After the elemination of her pride by the [[Drago-Kazov]] she escaped and began a new life. She became the lover of [[Bartolome Naz]], but left him. Naz hired the mercenary [[Tyr Anasazi]] to kill Desiree - but Tyr fell in love with her and hid her on the prison planet [[Elba Nine]] which was protected by the [[Attrox]] (constructed by Naz himself).<br>After four years Desiree sent a message to Tyr which he only got after five more years. Naz intercepted the message and tried to kill Desiree once again but was convinced by the crew of the [[Andromeda]] to let her go. Tyr offered her to stay on the Andromeda but she refused and decided to stay on Elba Nine: she believed to be cursed to be all things to all men.

==Trivia==
* In Greek mythology, '''Medea''' was the daughter of King Aeëtes of Colchis (now a territory of modern Georgia), niece of Circe, and later wife to Jason. In the play Medea, Jason leaves Medea when Creon, King of Corinth offers him his daughter. ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medea Wikipedia])
* '''Zimri''' was the Prince of the Tribe of Simeon during the time of the Israelites in the desert. At Shittim (Num. 25:6-15) he took part in the Heresy of Peor, taking as a concubine a Midianite woman, Cozbi. Zimri openly defied Moses before the people who were standing at the entrance of the Tabernacle by going in to the Midianite, but Phinehas, grandson of Aaron, killed them both by impaling them on a spear. & '''Zimri''' was a king of Israel for seven days. William F. Albright has dated his reign to 876 BC, while E. R. Thiele offers the date 885 BC. His story is told in 1 Kings, Chapter 16. ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zimri Wikipedia])
* '''Zarathustra''' was an ancient Persian (Iranian) prophet and religious poet. The hymns attributed to him are the scriptural basis of Zoroastrianism. Zoroaster is generally accepted to be an authentic historical figure. ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarathustra Wikipedia]) & '''Thus Spoke Zarathustra''' is a work by German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, composed in four parts between 1883 and 1885. It famously declares that "God is dead", elaborates Nietzsche's conception of the will to power, and serves as an introduction to his doctrine of eternal return.
