Captain Borotep Yeshgar, known to her close friends as Gar, was an Inari High Guard officer and commander of the Renewed Valor and an old friend of Dylan Hunt. Before the Battle of Witchhead, Yeshgar and her ship were scouting the Witchhead Nebula to prepare for the Commonwealth's attack on Fountainhead. There she encounters Dylan and the Andromeda, who had been missing for thirteen months. Though she is convinced that Dylan missed a whole year on the edge of a Black Hole, Dylan later told her that he is actually from three hundred years in the future, atime when the Commonwealth is gone. Reluctantly Yeshgar believes him and agrees to follow his advice to leave. Before the two ships can depart, a massive Nietzshean fleet emerges and opens fire on the Valor, destroying the vessel.
