Need help with my foundry mission

vegeta50024

I finally found my creative spark again and decided to return to working on my mirror foundry series, and I ran into a small problem. My story features a joint operation between Starfleet and the Klingons in order to discover how the Terrans are getting into the prime universe. I've settled on having six characters crossover into the mirror universe, one of which is going to be played by the player character (the mission will play a bit different depending on faction).

Here's what I've decided on for the Klingon side: Ja'rod and two of my personal characters (one will be replaced by the Klingon PC)

Federation side: Friend's character, Federation PC (will be one of my characters for KDF mission)

Ideally, I'd like to have a STO canon character on the Federation side, but I can't think of anyone that would be good in the game besides Shon who is at the same rank (outside of the show's canon characters that exist in the game). Does anyone have any suggestions?

Could go with Akira Sulu. He doesn't have much to do these days.
