Ambassador Khnera hair color issue

Dear Dev Team,

It have an issue with the cosmetics of one of the NPCs in the mission "Empress Sela".

It involves the Romulan Ambassador Khnera (https://sto.gamepedia.com/Khnera). It should be obvious what the problem is from the picture in the link.

The ambassador is blond, just like Sela.

The entire reason Sela is blond is to make her stand out among a people who are ALL brunettes. It's to emphasize her mother was NOT Romulan and that she is unique. By having an NPC being blond too (in the very mission named after Sela) really strips away a lot of the impact of this idea and cheapens Denise Crosby's character.

And yes, Khnera's parentage could be mixed, or she could be wearing a wig to 'honor' the Empress - but again, this really pulls away the uniqueness that Sela has, as the ONLY Romulan with blond hair. I remember watching the Next Generation episode where Sela was introduced and remember just how shocking it was to see a Romulan with blond hair and how it truly set her apart from all other Romulans - an effect I'm sure the show runners used to underscore her character.

So, please, change Khnera's hair back to normal Romulan color and let Sela stand out in her uniqueness. It's an easy fix that does honor to both Sela and Denise Crosby.

Thanks!
