So that seems kinda vaguely worded. It seems like it could be a character that Star Trek fans never have seen, but 'related' or similar to a character they've seen or a known character with a portrayal that is unexpected?
Honestly, I don't care. I adore Rhys!
I'll bet it's Finnegan from Kirk's Academy days. The only version shown of him in TOS was on S1 Shore Leave.The exact quote from the producer seems to be

Life must be hard in Starfleet.
Interesting thought!
