Dalal was a female Human in the late 23rd and early 24th centuries. In the early part of the 24th century, she lived on Deneb V, and was employed by Nu'man al-Halak. Following the death of Halak's wife, he hired Dalal as a secretary, housekeeper and nanny to his two sons, Baatin and Samir. Dalal was a positive influence on young Samir, who was ten at the time his mother died, taking care of him and insisting he attend school. After the death of Nu'man, Dalal became the sole guardian to both boys.
