   The makeup was destroying her face; she felt she had to quit. Because   
   she had only taken the job at the last minute, as a favor, when the   
   previous actress cast as Na'Toth quit after one day, after the actress   
   playing Ko'Dath quit after one week, no one blamed her, which is why she   
   was able to work on B5 again. (She actually cried over the decision to   
   drop out, but felt she really couldn't stay on.)   
      
   Normally, JMS would simply have killed the character, but it wouldn't   
   work at that particular time, so the third Na'Toth came in. She started   
   out well, but then her performance seemed to weaken, so she was cut and   
   Na'Toth dropped out of the story when it was convenient.
