A young member of the bird-like Areore, son of their chief, who falls in love with the exocomp Peanut Hamper when she is stranded on his world in A Mathematically Perfect Redemption.
Rawda is a native of the planet where the exocomp Peanut Hamper comes down after deserting the Cerritos. He appears in the third-season Lower Decks episode A Mathematically Perfect Redemption. His people, the winged Areore, live simply in a village, having long ago turned their backs on the technology and starships of their ancestors.
The chief's son is fascinated by the little machine and becomes her guide. Peanut Hamper gradually seems to drop her selfishness, helps the villagers, and agrees to marry him. On the wedding day Drookmani scavengers arrive to loot the buried Areore ships, and the Cerritos answers the distress call.
It then emerges that Peanut Hamper summoned the Drookmani herself so that she could stage a rescue and win her way back into Starfleet. Rawda is left heartbroken as she is taken away to the Daystrom Institute.
