Anamede was a Zamaron who gave the sapphire gem to Carol Ferris.
History
The ruling Queen died and the Zamarons went about finding her successor. Their search led to them discovering a Human woman on Earth with a similar resemblance to their departed Queen who went by the name of Carol Ferris. Abducting the Human, they explained that they intended for her to become their new Queen and live on Zamaron though Ferris refused as she stated that she was in love with a man called Green Lantern - unknown to her, this was Hal Jordan. The Zamarons, however, scoffed at the idea and believed no man was their equal. In order to convince her that their words were true, they gave her the clothes for hunting and equipped her with the royal Star Sapphire gem. That combined with a mind control beam, they sent her to prove the superiority of her sex by defeating Hal Jordan. The initial encounter led to her defeating Jordan which the Zamarons such as Anamede highlighted as proof of the greatness of their gender. However, Ferris asked for them to give Green Lantern another chance and she went forth to confront him.
At this point, Anamede was on board the Zamaron starship and asked her superior how an encounter would occur. Her superior, however, scolded her for always asking questions and she revealed that they would use a thought beam to transmit that knowledge directly to Green Lantern. He in turn arrived on the scene where he pit his Green Lantern Power Ring against Ferris' Star Sapphire powers. Ultimately, he managed to encase Ferris in an energy construct which prevented directed energy from the Zamarons from empowering her. Defeated, Star Sapphire was teleported away and Jordan was left unaware that the foe he faced was Carol Ferris. The dismayed Zamarons which included Anamede believed that Ferris' defeat was a disgrace on their sex and felt that Carol could never be their Queen. Thus, they decided to return her to Earth after purging her mind of her encounter with the Zamarons and the fight where she was taken back to her homeworld by Green Lantern. However, the Star Sapphire gem was left behind and taken into the custody of the Green Lantern of Sector 2814.
