Luaran was a female Vorta who served the Dominion as a commanding officer of Jem'Hadar soldiers. As with all Vorta, Luaran was a clone.

In late 2375, Luaran was killed by Elim Garak when members of the Cardassian Rebellion boarded her ship at the Kelvas repair facility. (DS9 episode: "Tacking Into the Wind")

First splinter timeline[]

Luaran was aboard Gul Lemec's starship during the Dominion invasion of Betazed in 2374, and was the Dominion's overseer during their occupation of the planet. (ST - Tales of the Dominion War short story: "The Ceremony of Innocence is Drowned", TNG novel: The Battle of Betazed)

Following the end of the Dominion War, another Luaran clone, apparently suffering from a cloning defect, acted on her own initiative to create a nanite-based weapon which, spread by an innocuous computer text file, killed with the use of sonic bullets. Intent on starting a new war with the Alpha Quadrant, she set up a base of operations on an abandoned subspace relay station around Callinon VII in the the Gamma Quadrant, and distributed her weapon with the assistance of a Wadi trader named Tellow. She was soon tracked down by the crew of the USS da Vinci, and killed by Lieutenant Commander Domenica Corsi. (SCE eBook: Malefictorum)

Sonya Gomez believed that Luaran was not dead but in custody. (SCE eBook: Identity Crisis)
