Kestra Troi

Lwaxana's memory of Kestra.

Hedril as Kestra

Hedril appearing as Kestra in Lwaxana Troi's metaconscious mind.

Kestra Troi was a half-Betazoid, half-human girl, born in 2330 to Lwaxana and Ian Andrew Troi. Kestra was the older sibling of Deanna Troi. Kestra was picnicking at the water's edge with her family and the family dog. When Lwaxana looked away for a second the dog and Kestra ran off. Kestra fell in the water and drowned.

The memory of Kestra's death was so traumatic to Lwaxana that she buried the memory deep inside instead of dealing with it. In dream sequences Lwaxana was forgiven by Kestra, and in turn herself. Only then did Lwaxana find peace from the tragedy. (TNG: "Dark Page")

Kestra was played by Andreana Wiener, although in some dream sequences she was played by Kirsten Dunst, the actress who played Hedril.
