Resthenar sh'Prenni

Resthenar "Thenar" sh'Prenni was an Andorian Federation Starfleet officer introduced in the Star Trek: Rise of the Federation novel Uncertain Logic. 
sh'Prenni was a Shen, one of the two female genders of the Andorian species. Previously a member of the Andorian Guard, she fought in the Earth-Romulan war as part of a multi-species taskforce that helped defeat Romulans at the Battle of Charon.
After the founding of the Federation and the incorporation of the Andorian Guard into Starfleet, sh'Prenni was promoted to Captain and given command of the Kumari-class starship USS Vol'Rala, which was the Andorian word for Enterprise. After the worlds of the Rigel system were admitted into the Federation, Captain sh'Prenni and her crew led a task force that largely eliminated piracy in the area around Rigel.
The Vol'Rala was assigned to a task force led by Captain Malcolm Reed in early 2165 to investigate the automated Ware, which used living beings as computer cores and to mitigate the threat it posed. In October after Section 31 gave the Klingons the means to destroy the Ware, the Klingons began invading planets where the Ware was in use. Captain sh'Prenni and her crew sacrificed themselves in battle against the Klingons, giving some on planets where Ware had been used time to evacuate.
The Federation honored Captain sh'Prenni and her crew with a monument placed in the city of Laikan on Andoria. The sacrifice also led Admiral Jonathan Archer to cancel plans for the first Federation starship Enterprise, feeling the name should be left in honorable retirement for a few years. As a result, the first such Enterprise was not built and commissioned until the first half of the 23rd century.
