Rahna

Rahna was one of the biotic potentials sent to BAaT when the Alliance and Conatix Industries first set the training programme up. She was Turkish and came from a rich family. Rahna had a close circle of friends on Jump Zero including Kaidan Alenko, who describes her as being smart, charming and gentle: everybody loved her and protected her.

Rahna was terrified of her instructor, Commander Vyrnnus, and with good reason. When Rahna became exhausted under his brutal regime and tried to pick up a glass of water with her hand instead of using her biotics, Vyrnnus punished her by breaking her arm. Kaidan retaliated, lost control, and ended up killing Vyrnnus with a biotic charge. Though Rahna had been scared of Vyrnnus, now Kaidan scared her even more and things never worked out between them afterwards.

If Commander Shepard is female, Kaidan says that Rahna was "beautiful, but not stuck up about it. Like you. --Ma'am." Shepard claims his story about Rahna explains a lot: "You agonise over doing the right thing; you never let yourself lose control, because Rahna spurned you after Vyrnnus died." Kaidan eventually concedes that she might possibly have a point, but is quick to assure her that he's not going to be a burden because of it.
