Richard Immanura was a Human man serving in an enlisted capacity as a Starfleet NCO in the 23rd century. By 2269, Chief Petty Officer Immanura was assigned to a security post on the Larson-class USS Hastings. The Hastings was assigned to a difficult patrol, along the border of Gorn Alliance space, an assignment worthy of a larger vessel. One of the main reasons a Larson-class vessel was chosen was because of a treaty prohibiting military vessels larger than 100,000 metric tons near the unstable border of Gorn space.
