Character Star Trek: Strange New Worlds · 2259

Sir Amand Rauth

Cowardly chamberlain played by Pike

The timid, fussy royal chamberlain of The Elysian Kingdom, the part into which Christopher Pike is cast in 2259 when a nebula entity transforms the Enterprise.

Sir Amand Rauth is a character in the children's book that Joseph M'Benga reads to his daughter. In the first-season Strange New Worlds episode The Elysian Kingdom, a being in the Jonisian Nebula makes the story real aboard the Enterprise, and Pike becomes Rauth with no memory of himself.
The chamberlain is everything the captain is not: fawning, easily frightened and elaborately dressed. He attends on King Ridley, the role that has fallen to M'Benga, and fusses about the dangers posed by Queen Neve.
Rauth's nerve fails at every sign of trouble, and he is more hindrance than help in the king's quest. The part gives Anson Mount a broad comic turn, and the spell ends when Rukiya's fate is settled and the crew return to themselves, remembering nothing.
