On the original casting call for "Star Trek: the Next Generation," authored in the late months of 1986, the Enterprise's security chief was to be a Latina character named Macha Hernandez, said to be modeled after the character Vasquez (Jenette Goldstein) from James Cameron's then-recent film "Aliens."

The character was renamed Tanya as a result, then eventually Tasha. The new Tasha Yar was given an intriguing backstory.
