Captain Kathryn Janeway
Rank: Captain
Position: Commanding Officer
Training: Starfleet, Academy Graduate
Race: Human
Kathryn Janeway graduated from Starfleet Academy and has steadfastly worked her way up through the ranks to become a captain of a starship. She served as Science Officer aboard the U.S.S. Al-Batani, during the Arias expedition, where she learned much from the then Captain Paris. The fact that she was present on this mission states that she was impressive officer as Paris has a reputation for choosing only the best.

Now in command of the U.S.S. Voyager, it is Captain Janeway's mission to track down the Maquis. In order to accomplish this she will take cashiered Starfleet Officer Tom Paris, the son of her former captain, as an observer. Janeway's strength of character makes her the ideal choice for this mission. It also ensures that she will be well equipped to deal with whatever the ship encounters along the way.

Admiral Kathryn Janeway
Birthplace: Indiana, Earth
Rank: Admiral
Role: Guest Lecturer
Specialty: The Borg
Ten years after Voyager's return to Earth, Kathryn Janeway is a Starfleet admiral, and an admired guest lecturer in Reginald Barclay's Starfleet Academy class on the Borg. Surrounded by those who remain in her original Voyager crew, the former Captain maintains her care for her friends, even though one suffers from a debilitating condition, and the memories of the passing of others are too painful for her to discuss. Although experienced in the ways of Starfleet diplomacy, this older Janeway is not above dealings with those of dubious repute.

Commander Chakotay
Rank: Commander
Position: First Officer
Training: Starfleet, Academy Graduate
Race: Human
A graduate of the Academy, this descendant of Native Americans went on to serve Starfleet and achieved the rank of Lieutenant Commander. When his home world became part of the demilitarised zone and under threat from Cardassia, he placed his people's well-being above his own and joined the Maquis.

Inevitably becoming an outlaw, he waged a terrorist campaign against the Cardassians , until his starship was spirited to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker.

He now swerves as First Officer aboard the U.S.S. Voyager, where it is hoped that he will exert a calming influence on the Maquis members who were forced to join the Starfleet crew.

Tuvok
Rank: Lieutenant
Position: Tactical/Security Officer
Training: Starfleet, Academy Graduate
Race: Vulcan
Tuvok has served under Captain Kathryn Janeway for four years as her tactical/security officer, including a period undercover, when he infiltrated the Maquis. His Vulcan logic renders him an excellent tactician and, combined with his high intelligence, provides him with unparalleled powers of deduction.

His Vulcan approach to problems can sometimes cause him to be overly pedantic in his explanations! Nonetheless, his Captain has come to depend upon his steadfast nature and sound advice. True to his Vulcan nature, his demeanour remains composed, no matter how disastrous or disappointing the situations becomes for the U.S.S. Voyager and her crew. Thus his presence has a calming effect on his fellow officers.

Tom Paris
Rank: Lieutenant
Position: Conn Officer
Training: Starfleet Academy
Race: Human
Tom Paris began a brilliant career as a pilot with Starfleet but made a mistake which cost the lives of three fellow officers. Although he owned up, he was court martialled and cashiered. Realising he had disappointed his father, a Starfleet admiral, he bitterly turned to the Maquis as a mercenary only to be captured on his first mission. Captain Janeway sprang him from the penitentiary, needing his expertise and his knowledge of the Maquis but, under her fair command and her enforced circumstances, the good in the man and his brilliance as a pilot have resurfaced. His fondness for the ladies gets him into trouble but he has instinctively put his life on the line to help others.

B'Elanna Torres
Rank: Lieutenant
Position: Chief of Engineering
Training: Starfleet Academy , Second Year not completed
Race: Human/Klingon
B'Elanna Torres began her career with an encouraging start at Starfleet Academy . One of her tutors, Professor Chapman, regarded her as one of the most promising students he had ever taught. Despite her talents, Torres' days at the Academy were cut short. After four disciplinary hearings and a suspension, she finally left before completing her second year. In civilian life she carved a niche for herself in the Maquis. Her Klingon half Klingon half handicaps her with a temper she has great difficulty in controlling. When enraged, she finds it impossible to anticipate the consequences of her actions. However, she is gifted with a natural aptitude for engineering, with a clear headed ability to solve technical problems. Were she able to curb her ferocity, she has the ability to excel in her field.

Harry Kim
Rank: Ensign
Position: Ops Officer
Training: Starfleet, Academy Graduate
Race: Human
Harry Kim is an extremely enthusiastic young man from a close Asian family. He sets himself very high standards and is determined to be an exemplary Starfleet Officer. Voyager is his first assignment since his graduation from the Academy. His position as Ops. Officer reflects his academic success and his ability to analyse and solve problems. He has faced the situation of being stranded in the Delta Quadrant, so far from home, with strength of character and courage beyond his years. He is earnest and very eager to please.

Neelix
Rank: Chef
Position: Adviser
Training: Not Known
Race: Talaxian
Neelix is non-Starfleet personnel. He is a former junk dealer who gained a free passage on the U.S.S. Voyager by offering himself as an adviser, guide and diplomat, based on his knowledge of the Delta Quadrant and its races.

Trading is a way of life which he has mastered. When he discovers the ship is short of energy for the replicators and, therefor food, he offers his prowess as a chef. The Talaxian is very personable, to the point of charming but is also shrewd and has a talent for turning situations to his advantage. His flamboyant clothes give a clue to his personality and his enjoyment of life. His quick-wittedness should prove to be an advantage to the crew of the Voyager.

For more information on Neelix go to the section, 'The Characters'.

The Doctor
Name Not Applicable
Rank Not Applicable
Position: Emergency Holographic Doctor
Training: Programmed
Race: Holographic Human Image
As only an emergency holographic supplement to eh medical staff, the doctor was not programmed to function as a Chief Medical Officer. However, due to the loss of the U.S.S. Voyager's entire medical personnel, he has had to fill this role.

Designed and programmed with information from 2000 medical reference sources, the hologram contains the personal experience of forty seven individual medial officers.

The Doctor is proving himself to be an extremely capable and efficient officer. Kes is being trained by him to be his assistant and she, in turn, is helping him to develop social skills and to gain a further understanding of human nature.

For more information on The Doctor go to the section, 'The Characters'.

Kes
Rank/Position: Hydroponics Expert, Trainee Nurse
Training: Field Training, supervised by Doctor
Race: Ocampa
In keeping with her people, Kes has a very gentle demeanour. Unlike most of them, she is a free thinker and has a daring streaking which led her to reach the surface of her planet, escaping her subterranean home. She is sensitive and mildly empathic. The Ocampa live for only nine years but in compensation are capable of quickly absorbing huge quantities of information and knowledge.

She has brought with her a thorough understanding of hydroponic food cultivation and is supplying her beloved Neelix, the chef, with ingredients. She has now set her mind to the study of medicine to help the doctor in the capacity of a nurse.

For more information on Kes go to the section, 'The Characters'.

Kes (Supplemental)
Race: Ocampan
Position: Medical Assistant
Age: 6
The acceleration of Kes' powers in her last weeks aboard Voyager were exceptional by any standards. The heightening of her senses is believed to stem from the presence of Species 8472 in our dimension, which caused Kes to experience terrifying visions during Voyager's conflict with the creatures. Following the struggles, Kes' telekinetic abilities increased to the point where she could complete complex tasks purely with the power of her mind, including an intricate brain operation on Borg drone Seven of Nine. When it became apparent that the side effects of Kes' powers were dangerous to Voyager's hull, Tuvok attempted to train her via a series of Vulcan mind exercises. Kes quickly surpassed both the Vulcan courses and the boundaries of accepted science. When forced to leave Voyager, rather than further endanger the ship, Kes leaves a parting "gift".

Tuvix
Rank: N/A
Position: Tactical Officer
Training: (Tuvok) Starfleet Academy
Race: Vulcan Talaxian Fusion
The result of a transporter merging both Tuvok and Neelix, Tuvix has the quiet, calm logic of the former but the friendly, pleasing nature of the latter. Physically, he has retained the height and dark colouring of the Vulcan but the facial features of the Talaxian. Neelix's recipes are tamed with the caution of Tuvok, particularly pleasing the Captain. He has resumed the tactical officer's position on the bridge. On a personal level, he is particularly considerate of Kes' suffering in losing both her mentor and her lover in the accident. He has retained the best of both characters but his doubled will to survive is resistant to the doctor's attempts to reverse the transporter mistake.

Lon Suder
Rank: Ensign
Position: Engineer
Training: Not Known
Race: Betazoid
Lon Suder is a typical Betazoid in may respects. He is quiet and reserved, perhaps even a little introverted and prefers to keep himself to himself. He was a former member of the Maquis and although many of his fellow families, Suder never chose to disclose his motivation for joining the fray. Despite the fact that he never behaved out of the ordinary, Suder was not well-liked by his associates. They remember that when it came to killing Cardassians, he did it a little too well. Since being signed on aboard the U.S.S. Voyager as part of her crew, he has always performed his duty. He is one of B'Elanna Torres' engineering officers.

Henry Starling

Position: Head of Chronowerx
Training: N/A
Race: Human
Henry Starling approached adulthood as a long haired, music loving hippy. Witnessing a remarkable event, during a night's camping in the High Sierras, his life was suddenly and irrevocably changed. Now, three decades later and as a result of that fateful night, Starling is the head of chronowerx, a corporate giant in high technology. Henry has wealth, celebrity and, unfortunately, an ego to match. Posing as an entrepreneur and a philanthropist, he has convinced many that he is an outstanding citizen. Within his close circle he is a tough talking, uncompromising hard liner who demands the very best. Ruthlessly, he will also stop at nothing to protect his thirty year old secret...

Vorik
Occupation: Engineering Officer
Position: Ensign
Training: Starfleet
Race: Vulcan
Vorik is a young Vulcan already exhibiting all the cool and rational personality traits of his race. Although he would not have chosen to be stranded so far from home, he finds the challenges of the Delta Quadrant intriguing. He accepts that his arranged marriage will now have been abandoned. Proud of his superior strength, he is an accomplished climber with experience in the treacherous Osonic caves. Equally confident about his mental discipline, he is punctual, practices meditation and has an accurate memory. He excels in his chosen career in engineering, suggesting alternative tools and methods to tackle maintenance problems. Vorik holds B'Elanna Torres, the Chief Engineer, in high esteem both professionally for her technical skills and personally, admiring her bravery and her strong sense of moral duty.

Jetal
Race: Human
Rank: Ensign
Assignment: U.S.S. Voyager
A junior officer aboard the U.S.S. Voyager, Ensign Jetal was a capable, attractive and popular member of the starship's crew. Such was her popularity, indeed, that for her last birthday, many of her friends, including the senior officers, took the time to organise and throw a surprise party in the Mess Hall, complete with birthday cake and candles! Jetal was primarily a shuttle pilot, and her last tour of duty involved modifying on of Voyager's shuttles to make it more maneuverable and more "cool", as Tom Paris would say. On her last shuttle flight, Jetal was attacked by a hostile alien, who shot both her and Harry Kim with a weapon designed to induce death by leaving a residual charge in the victim, planting an energy pulse that remained in the neural membranes, working its way up the spinal cord and into the brain. As a result of the attack, Jetal suffered massive synaptic failure leading to death.

Kadan
Race: Quarren
Title: Doctor
Discipline: Neuropathology
Specialism: Dysphoria Syndrome
A specialist in neuropathology, Doctor Kadan has responsibility for processing any new arrivals to the Quarren industrial facility who are suspected to have mental disorders. Aided by Doctor Ravok, Kadan is known for treating an unusually high number of cases involving Dysphoria Syndrome, and in on day he was able to release over one hundred employees, mostly form the same species, into the workforce: a valuable contribution to quarren society, especially during a labour shortage!

Naomi Wildman
Nickname: "The Littlest Crewmember"
Mother: Ensign Samantha Wildman
Godfather: Neelix
The daughter of one of Voyager's science officers, Naomi Wildman is one of the youngest of Voyager's explorers. Although Ship's morale officer, Neelix, describes Naomi as a very sensitive child, she is not shy about putting forth her opinions, including the view that she should begin to "pull her weight" around the ship, by taking up a crew position as Captain's assistant on the Bridge. Although generally intelligent, Naomi has strange attitudes towards some of the crew's more unusual members. She is terrified of the Borg Drone Seven of Nine, and is convinced that Seven of Nine will assimilate her and place her in the Collective. Similarly, Naomi doesn't like the sickbay, as it is full of "creepy things", and in her opinion the Doctor talks too much! Naomi's favourite pastime is playing with Flotter and her other forest friends in the holodeck.

Lyndsay Ballard
Rank: Ensign
Discipline: Engineering
Race: Human
Status: Deceased
As part of an away mission, Harry Kim and Lyndsay Ballard visited a Class M planet to recover dilithium ore they had detected there a few days earlier. When they landed, the pair realised it was a trap set by a Hirogen hunting party who had reconfigured a power cell to give off false dilithium readings. Hurrying back tot he shuttle, Ballard was within 10 feet of the craft when she was hit by a neural disruptor. Ballard died on the trip back to Voyager on stardate 51563 and was buried in space.

Mortimer Harren
Rank: Crewman
Discipline: Engineering
Race: Human
Status: Reluctant Explorer
Raised on Viko 5, the planet with "the wildest sky in the Alpha Quadrant", it was perhaps inevitable that Mortimer Harren developed an interest in cosmology. Having gained five advanced degrees in theoretical cosmology, Harren needed a year of hands-on experience to qualify for the Institute of Cosmology on Orion-1, so he joined the crew of Voyager. Bitter about he effect on his career of Voyager's transportation to the Delta Quadrant, Harren now spends his days deep in theoretical calculations in the plasma relay room on Deck 15.

Seska
Race: Cardassian
Appearance: Bajoran
Occupation: Infiltrator
Status: Dead
A cardassian agent surgically altered to appear Bajoran, Seska was assigned to infiltrate the Maquis terrorist group. When her Maquis vessel was destroyed in 2371, Seska joined the crew of Voyager, where she worked in Engineering. Her role as a Cardassian agent was discovered on stardate 48658 when she was caught selling technology to the Kazon-Nistrim, who later tried to take control of Voyager. Seska was killed when Starfleet officers retook the ship. However, Seska's death did not mark the end of her threat to Voyager...
