A Gatherer of the Lornak clan whose apparently natural death decades earlier is traced, through an old image, to the same young woman now serving Sovereign Marouk.
Penthor-Mul is an Acamarian of the clan Lornak whose death is uncovered in the third-season episode The Vengeance Factor. He is seen only in a photographic record.
After an old Gatherer named Volnoth dies suddenly during the talks, Dr Crusher finds a microvirus engineered to kill only members of the Lornak clan. A search of Acamarian records shows that Penthor-Mul, another Lornak, died fifty-three years before of what was taken for heart failure. The image of him taken shortly before his death shows a servant at his side who looks exactly like Yuta, Marouk's cook and food taster.
The record proves that Yuta, last of the Tralesta clan, has been kept young for a century to hunt down the Lornaks, and sends Riker racing to stop her from reaching Chorgan.
