In Star Trek: Lionheart continuity, Erika Shey Rheyan (pronounced Ryan) was an Arkian serving as the commanding officer of the USS Lionheart as of 2384. She was the third such officer to command the vessel after Captain Garrison and Captain (later Commodore) Thomas Charles Abernathy. The mission however would ultimately become a success, with the Commander of the Centauris offering a parting gift in the form of four experimental Starfleet fightercraft which were still in their Op-Eval period as a parting gift, a gift that would benefit the vessel during a later incursion into Breen territory.
