Harral was a male Orion who lived in the 32nd century. He was the son of Bashorat Harral, an activist who told him that Orions had a particular responsibility to speak out against the actions of the Emerald Chain. Thus, Harral was reluctant to reveal his parentage and thereby absolve himself of the Chain's malign legacy.

In 3190, Harral was among the first cohort of cadets to attend the newly reopened Starfleet Academy. Though he rose to the top of his class, he felt that as an Orion he had to work twice as hard to be taken seriously.

After two months at the Academy, Harral was selected by Doctor Kovich to participate in a team-building exercise led by Lieutenant Sylvia Tilly, along with Cadets Taahz Gorev and Val Sasha, and Ensign Adira Tal. Their mission was to conduct a full planetary analysis of Geryon, with Harral assigned to the geologic component. He was met with hostility by Gorev, whose family had suffered greatly under the Emerald Chain.

En route to Geryon, their shuttlecraft UFP-11 was disabled by a rogue gamma-ray burst and crashed on Kokytos. Harral initially thought the crash was a holo simulation; after being disabused of this idea, he favored cautious courses of action but was repeatedly overruled. The cadets were able to work better together after they rescued Tal from parasitic ice and Tal informed them of the identity of Harral's father. The group was then able to evade a Tuscadian pyrosome and successfully contact the USS Armstrong for rescue. (DIS: "All Is Possible")

The cadets later took part in the evacuation of Earth via Federation Headquarters and its ships when the planet was threatened by the DMA. Gorev and Harral remained on the bridge with Tilly and Admiral Charles Vance, helping to coordinate the evacuation. On Vance's orders, the two abandoned ship on the USS Mitchell along with the rest of Federation Headquarters' personnel. (DIS: "Coming Home")

Harral was played by Seamus Patterson.
