Ihat was one of many of the D'Arsay people to "possess" Data in 2370.

Ihat was among the most flamboyant and vocal, with feminine, even effeminate mannerisms. Ihat claimed to have escaped Masaka, suggesting that Ihat was an intended sacrifice who got away. Ihat was the first to reveal the sign for Masaka's temple to Captain Picard, although Masaka interrupted by punishing Ihat. While scornful of Masaka, Ihat had a grudging respect for her powers when she was awake. Like the other D'Arsay people, Ihat seemed not to be afraid of Korgano, reinforcing Picard's belief that Korgano was seen as a protector as opposed to a destroyer. Ihat is also the first to mention Korgano, claiming that only Korgano can keep Masaka asleep. (TNG: "Masks")
