Edit: I guess this is in the future so you can make the case that Odo joining the great link gave the rest of the Founders an appreciation for the idea of more sexy angry women in the universe and women Jem'Hadar was an easy solution to that. It'll have to be pretty good for me to like this idea because on the surface I hate it.

Yashere’s character is now confirmed as Commander Lura Thok, a Klingon/Jem’Hadar who is the chancellor’s First Officer and Cadet Master. An interesting role for someone of her background, but this wouldn’t be the first time Star Trek played with the idea of genetic determinism. That means somewhere along the Star Trek timeline, a Klingon and a Jem’Hadar produced offspring, creating what could be one of the most terrifying warrior races in Star Trek lore. But that’s almost not the most important thing here.

Kurtzman has already hinted that these hybrids are more than window dressing. If Yashere’s character and Giamatti’s villain are both part Klingon – or potentially something else entirely – it suggests that identity, heritage, and the fusion of past legacies will be key themes of Starfleet Academy. There’s a lot to find interesting there, even if the promise of further political storylines – which is totally in line with Rodenberry’s original vision – will inevitably spark… discourse.

And, in case you're wondering, it looks like this is strongly Kurtzman's idea.
