[edit] Overview

The second aide to Ambassador G'Kar. She arrived one week after the death of her predecessor Ko D'Ath. Na'Toth was sponsored to be G'Kar's aide by Councilor Li'Dak even though her father, Shu'Toth, was also a councilor on the Kha'Ri.

Na'Toth was played by Caitlin Brown in Season 1 and by Mary Kay Adams in Season 2.

[edit] Post-actress Change

Behind The Scenes: The following information is taken from Out-of-character remarks and/or commentary from those involved.

With Season 2 came a dramatic change in the character of Na'Toth, none of it scripted. The new actress (Adams) playing the character had a decidedly softer, more calm, composed manner and handled situations with less flair and personality than the Season 1 character. This dramatic change in character portrayal was, as mentioned above, not due to any will to do so by the production staff, but rather an unfortunate outcome of faults during casting. While the role she had performed in auditions for Na'Toth were apparently exactly as wanted, her actual work in the series was in no way similar to that of the audition material and on top of this, she had no will and/or ability to change it. Because the Na'Toth character could not be "healed" per-se (restored to the producers' original intent), she was removed from the series.
