D'Vanna was an Orion woman of the 23rd century. She was an Orion slave girl of high quality. D'Vanna was purchased by Major Meneti sutai Kommora in the mid-2280s, using some of the bribe money he'd received from Captain Kletarc sutai Klinlor. She was then smuggled aboard a supply ship to the Klingon intelligence outpost on Valtor III. There she was kept chained to a wall in Meneti's quarters, and brought out to dance for and entertain visitors to the base.
