Overview

Troi is the widow of Ian Andrew Troi and mother of Deanna Troi. Deanna often feels embarrassed by her mother's exuberant and flashy personality, in addition to belittled by her continuing references to her childhood nickname, "Little one".
She serves as the Betazoid ambassador to the Federation. As a Betazoid, she possesses telepathic abilities. She has visited the USS ''Enterprise-D'' on several occasions. Her appearances involve her search for a husband, fixing her sights at various times on a Ferengi, a diplomatic minister, a man forced to die by a mandatory cultural requirement, and Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
In the ''DS9'' episode The Muse, Lwaxana says that she lost her parents, a sister and her husband, but nothing compared to the pain of losing her daughter Kestra.
In addition to Deanna and Kestra, Lwaxana Troi also has a son, born to a Tavnian named Jeyal. She briefly marries Odo in order to void Jeyal's claim to the child.
