Lyta Alexander is a telepath who was originally assigned to Babylon 5 as a commercial telepath, one who monitors business transactions for deception on the part of one of the participants. When the new Vorlon ambassador to the station was poisoned, she telepathically scanned the ambassador to see if she could determine who poisoned him. After the ambassador recovered, the Psi Corps recalled her to Earth for debriefing about the experience.
Lyta rebelled and escaped from the Psi Corps. She eventually made her way to the Vorlon Empire, where she underwent biological and psychological modifications before returning to Babylon 5 as the ambassador's assistant.
After Kosh's death, Lyta was forced to re-enlist in Psi Corps in order to make a living, but she left again upon meeting Byron, a telepath who was attempting to establish a safe place for human telepaths to live without Psi Corps regulation. After his death, Lyta took over the movement, arranging to trade telepath genetic material to the Narns in return for a planet to colonize and large sums of money. She used some of the money to fund a terrorist movement that eventually destroyed the Psi Corps, changing the way EarthGov dealt with telepaths in the population. Her exact fate in the wake of the "Telepath War" is uncertain.
