Anya is the nurse of the crew on the Tulpar spaceship. She is in charge of the medical supplies, conducting the other crew mates' psychological evaluations, and assisting them with medical care. She is an active member of the crew and works tirelessly to make sure everyone's psychological needs are met. This is partly due to the fact that she is an eight time rejected medical school student, and took a job at Pony Express to fund her education, as well as to prove her medical skills.
