Kathryn
Janeway
Rank: Captain Date of
Birth: May 20 (approx. 2325) Origin of
Birth: Earth; in the region of the former US (North America),
Indiana Family: Father- Admiral Edward Janeway
(deceased); Mother- Gretchen; Sister-
Phoebe Marriage Status: Single; former fiancee:
Mark Johnson (nickname- Hobbes)
Former Relationship with Lieutenant Justin Tighe
(deceased) Current Assignment: Captain aboard the
USS Voyager NCC 74656 Other
Information:
Kathryn was first enrolled to be a Science officer within
Starfleet, but quickly refocused her career goal to become a Command
officer. She has served with such noted officers as Admiral Paris
on board the USS Icarus during her eventful Starfleet
career.
During
her career, Kathryn has been in the line of action many times, including
many confrontations with the Cardassians during the
Cardassian-Federation War. One such noted event was when Kathryn
and one other officer heroically and selfishly crawled into Cardassian
territory during war-time to save the life of one
Cardassian.
One of
the most difficult times of her life came when she, her father, and
boyfriend, Justin Tighe were serving aboard the prototype ship, the
USS Terra Nova in the Tau Ceti system. The ship had
propulsion problems, and crash landed on a frozen waste-land
planet. Admiral Janeway and Lieutenant Tighe were trapped within
the Terra Nova as it sank into an ocean under a polar ice
cap. Both of the men drowned. Luckily, Kathryn had been
thrown from the ship upon impact, and managed to survive the
disaster. It took Kathryn several months to recover from the
emotional shock of the disaster; this was due primarily to her sister
Phoebe who one day threw a bucket of ice-cold water on Kathryn to get
her to leave her bed and move on with her life.
After
the Tau Ceti disaster, Kathryn soon returned to Starfleet, and worked
harder than ever to achieve her own command. It has been noted
that she was very much like her father with her determination and
unwillingness to give-up.
She soon
received her first command. However, after performing a
questionable tactical procedure, she was brough forward a review board,
consisting of one of her future crewmembers, Tuvok. He critized
her tactical procedures during her command.
Kathryn
soon received her command aboard the USS Voyager .
Voyager was then pulled from the Alpha Quadrant in 2371 by the
Caretaker in the Bad Lands, searching for Maquis
outlaws.
During
her years in the Delta Quadrant, Kathryn has been able to keep her
crew's morale high as she works to get them home. She often
questions the line between science and religion, always looking for a
rational explanation for every occurrence. Her intelligence, and
knowledge allow her to be one of the best captains of the
fleet. Interests:
Painting, Jazz music, Sculpting, Tennis (was a champ in
Indiana--quit the sport after losing a game to a Vulcan champion, and
then walked home in a thunderstorm), Velocity, skiing, sailing,
gardening, camping, hiking, ballet (as a child), Holodeck programs
(current favorites include a gothic program and the DaVinci Workshop
Program).
Chakotay
Rank: Commander (honorary status by Captain
Janeway) Date of Birth: 2335
Origin of
Birth: Earth, North America Family:
Father- Kolopak Marriage Status: Single; Once
involved with Seska (deceased) Current
Assignment: First Officer aboard USS Voyager
Other
Information:
A Native American, Chakotay is one who is close to his heritage,
although he did go against his fathers wishes and went to Starfleet
Academy for Four years and became an officer. Captain Sulu
sponsored his entry into the Academy. He was a Lieutenant
Commander and an instructor at Starfleet's Advanced Tactical Training
when he left Starfleet and became a member of the Maquis. This was
due to his father, Kolopak's death as he fought the Cardassians on his
home world in the Demilitarized Zone.
Chakotay
served for a year within the Maquis before his ship and crew were pulled
to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker in the Badlands in
2371.
Commander Chakotay often follows his "gut instinct" when in
command. He is very resourceful and intelligent, and is a fine
addition to Voyager's crew after Voyager's former First Officer,
Commander Cavit, was killed during the voyage from the Alpha to
the Delta Quadrant.
Chakotay
adorns a facial tattoo, a method of remembering and expressing his
Native heritage. His father received the same tattoo after an
expedition deep into a jungle on Earth, where they met a group of
Natives. Chakotay soon learned that these Natives had had contact
with an alien species from the Delta Quadrant.
Chakotay
has deep spiritual beliefs. He often uses meditative techniques to
enter his subconscious mind and speak with his 'animal guide', one who
gives him advice. On one occasion, Chakotay spoke with his father
during a meditative vision, asking advice on what to do after Seska
claimed she had his son after implanting his DNA in her body.
However, the baby turned out to be Maj Cullah's, and not
Chakotays. Interests:
Racquetball, meditation, reading, spending time on the
Holodeck.
Tuvok
Rank: Lieutenant Commander as of 2374
Date of
Birth: 2264 Origin of
Birth: Vulcan Family: Wife-
T'Pel Children- Three sons and one daughter
Grandchildren- One Marriage
Status: Married to T'Pel since 2304 Current
Assignment: Tactical Officer aboard the USS
Voyager
Other
Information:
Tuvok has been a loyal officer to Starfleet for quite some time,
and is considered one of the finest. He first entered the academy
in 2289, and soon graduated in 2293. He was immediately assigned
to the USS Excelsior, which was under the command of Captain Hikaru
Sulu. However, after questioning the Captain's motives as the
Captain attempted to rescue his colleagues, Captain Kirk and Doctor
McCoy, Tuvok took a leave of absence from Starfleet for many
years. During his leave of absence, Tuvok began to explore the
culture of his people as he strove to be able to control his
emotions.
Tuvok
then returned to Starfleet approximately in the year 2355 and served on
board the USS Wyoming, and also taught classes at Starfleet
Academy.
In 2370,
he was assigned to the USS Voyager under Captain Kathryn Janeway as
Tactical Officer. In 2371, he was sent into the Maquis on an
under-cover operation, and found himself serving on board Chakotay's
ship. Voyager was then sent to recover Tuvok in the Bad Lands, but
both Voyager and Chakotay's ship were pulled to the Delta Quadrant by
the Caretaker.
In 2371,
Tuvok was demoted to Lieutenant after dis-obeying a direct order by
Captain Janeway, as he attempted to use alien (Sikarrian)
technology to get Voyager home. In 2374, Captain Janeway restored
his rank to Lieutenant Commander.
Tuvok is
a vital member of the Voyager crew. He is rational, intelligent,
and often lends advice to his colleague, Captain Janeway. His
stern-ness and lack of expression often results in his mockery by some
members of the crew, including Lieutenant Paris, Ensign Kim, Lieutenant
Torres and Neelix. (who refers to him as 'Mr.
Vulcan')
During
his years aboard Voyager, Tuvok has lent his calm state of mind to aid
others with their mental journeys, including former crew member Kes, and
Ensign Lan Suder (deceased).
In 2375,
after regaining contact with Starfleet, Tuvok learned that he was a
proud grand-father. Interests:
Playing the Vulcan Lute, archery, playing the Vulcan game
Kol-Toh, botany, meditations, reading.
Thomas
Eugene Paris
Rank: Lieutenant (honorary rank by Captain
Janeway) Date of Birth: Unknown, approx.
2345 Origin of Birth: Earth, North
America Family: Father- Admiral Owen Paris
Mother- Mrs. Paris Siblings- Two older sisters
Marriage
Status: Involved with Lieutenant B'Elanna
Torres Current Assignment: Helmsman aboard the
USS Voyager
Other
Information:
Tom Paris, as Captain Janeway puts it, is a new born man.
His career and life in general have been rough, but his experience on
Voyager has allowed him to become a more seasoned officer, and a better
person in general.
Tom has
been once described as a wild child. He was a carefree individual,
who spent much of his time in his room as a child, fearing his father,
Admiral Owen Paris. In fact, it was this room in which he lost his
virginity at the tender age of 17 (As noted by the Doctor of
Voyager).
Tom is
superb pilot, although his early days of piloting were slightly
disastrous. His first Shuttle accident occurred when he crashed
his father's Shuttle in Lake Tahoe. The next accident was far
deadlier. After four years at the Academy, Tom was in a Shuttle
accident at Caldrik Prime which resulted in the death of three Starfleet
officers. Tom attempted to cover-up the incident, and as a result,
he was banished from Starfleet. He then decided to assist the
Maquis cause as they fought the Cardassians. On his first mission
as a Maquis outlaw, he was captured and imprisoned. He was sent to
the New Zealand penal colony immediately after his court martial.
This was an extreme embarrassment to Admiral Paris, who always delighted
on his family having a good name, which was now
tarnished.
However,
change came in 2371 when Kathryn Janeway arrived at the New Zealand
penal colony to recruit Paris on a mission whereby he would assist in
the capturing of several Maquis outlaws, under the command of
Chakotay. This mission was of extreme importance since a Starfleet
officer, Lieutenant Tuvok was among the crew, posing as a Maquis
officer.
Once
upon Voyager, Tom acted as merely an observer. However, after
Voyager was thrown to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker, and the
helmsman, Lieutenant Stati killed, Tom assumed the position of
Helmsman.
He did
experience opposition from some members of the crew. The ships
Doctor (who also died on the voyager to the Delta Quadrant) and
Chakotay. However, Tom proved himself as he saved Chakotay's life
on the Ocampan home world, and also he has saved Voyager countless times
with his remarkable piloting abilities.
In 2372,
Tom became the first human to break the warp barrier and reach warp
10. This incident resulted in his evolving into a higher state of
human existence. Later, he mated with Captain Janeway (who also
evolved after coming in contact with Tom). Luckily, the Doctor was
able to reverse the effects.
Also in
2372, Tom was involved in an elaborate plan to find out who was the
traitor on board Voyager who was giving information to the Kazon.
He appeared to leave the ship, and as incidents unfolded, the traitor
turned out to be former Maquis officer, Michael
Jonas.
Tom is
an invaluable member of the crew, and has shown his worth on countless
occasions. He has certainly changed his ways, and has become an
fantastic Starfleet officer. Interests:
Spending time on the Holodeck (has a bar program--Marseilles
France, and also enjoys time on Neelix's Beach resort program;
also has a vintage car program), Bat'leth on the Holodeck with
Lieutenant Torres, reading, gambling, billiards, vintage cars,
history.
B'Elanna
Torres
Rank: Lieutenant (honorary rank by
Captain Janeway) Date of Birth: Unknown; approx.
2345 Origin of Birth:
Earth Family: Mother-- Full Klingon,
Miral Father-- Human(deceased) Marriage
Status: Involved with Lieutenant Tom Paris
Current
Assignment: Chief Engineer aboard USS Voyager
Other
Information:
B'Elanna is another member of the crew who has experienced a
troubled life. Being half Klingon, half human and growing up among
humans, B'Elanna was been taunted many times. She also has gotten
frustrated with her Klingon side, wishing to become all
human.
B'Elanna
is extremely intelligent. She was very bright, and did well at the
Academy, although she did not get along with many of the cadets.
She was very highly spoken of at the Academy, but she decided to leave
after two years. Many professors were sorry to see her go, knowing
she could have one day made a fantastic Engineer, the likes of
Montgomery Scott of the USS Enterprise.
After
leaving the Academy, B'Elanna joined the Maquis, where she served under
Chakotay. She became very close to the crew, including Seska (who
turned out to be a Cardassian spy), Chakotay, and Kirk Banderas to name
a few. She saved the crew many times with her quick, decisive
Engineering skills. Once, she was able to de-activate a Cardassian
super-torpedo which was heading to annihilate a Maquis planet, and
re-program it to attack a Cardassian planet. This missile however,
eventually ended up in the Delta Quadrant after it too was pulled there
by the Caretaker.
Upon
arriving on Voyager, B'Elanna was not well liked. A heated
conflict with Lieutenant Carey on who should become Chief, she hit him
and broke his nose. However, she eventually became Chief Engineer
after proving herself to Captain Janeway after saving Voyager from a
temporal anomaly.
Since
her first day on Voyager, B'Elanna has grown into a calmer, more mature
officer. In recent years, she has come to accept her Klingon side,
and has even participated in various Klingon traditions of coming of
age. She is well liked by the crew, and has saved Voyager on
countless occasions. She is as Kathryn Janeway puts it, a valuable
addition to the Voyager crew. Interests:
Racquetball, Bat'leth tournaments on the Holodeck with
Lieutenant Paris, reading, spending time on the
Holodeck.
Harry
Kim
Rank: Ensign
Date of
Birth: 2349 Origin of
Birth: Earth, North America, South Carolina
Family: Mother- Mrs. Kim Father- Mr.
Kim Marriage Status: Single, however engaged
to fiancee Libby Current Assignment: Operations officer
aboard USS Voyager
Other
Information:
Harry Kim is an excellent and dedicated Starfleet officer, who
is always eager to please. He is driven to succeed, mainly from
drive from his parents, to with he is very close. During his
childhood, his parents emphasized a balance of music (clarinet) and
sports (Volleyball), which made Harry a well rounded
individual.
He
excelled at his four years at the Academy, and his first assignment came
in 2371 when he became Operations officer aboard the USS Voyager.
Although slightly nervous and unsure of himself in the beginning, he
quickly became more confident and a vital member of the
crew.
His
years on Voyager have been difficult at times. In 2371 he was sent
to an alternate dimension, and upon returning to the Delta Quadrant, he
was dead. The Doctor was able to resuscitate him very
quickly. In 2372 he entered a time slipstream which sent him to an
alternate universe whereby he never joined Voyager's crew. Also in
2372, Kim died when he was sucked out of a breach on deck 15.
Luckily, Voyager and her crew had just been duplicated by a spatial
phenomena, and the Kim from the duplicate Voyager survived and joined
the crew. In 2373, he and Tom Paris, with whom he is best friends,
were sent to a prison ship whereby Harry survived tremendously difficult
situations, and saved Tom's life. Also in 2373, his body was
infiltrated by a virus while on an away mission which cause him to
change biologically into an alien. These aliens later claimed he
was a descendant of their people (this was proven false however, and the
Doctor reversed the effects of the virus). In 2373, he was
attacked by a members of Species 8472 and his body was infected with
alien DNA, which caused him once again to change biologically.
With the help of Borg Nanoprobes, he was saved by the
Doctor.
However,
through his many experiences, Harry has become a better Starfleet
officer, and has gained confidence. Although he misses Earth, he
truly values the friendships he has made on
Voyager. Interests:
Volleyball, reading, playing the clarinet, soccer, the
Vulcan game Kol' Toh with Tuvok, billiards, spending time on the
Holodeck, journalism.
The
Doctor
Rank: Doctor
Date of
Birth: 2371 Origin of
Birth: Programmed at the Jupiter Station by an engineer Lewis
Zimmerman (who bears his resemblance) and activated in 2371 by Harry Kim
after being thrown to the Delta Quadrant by the
Caretaker. Family: None.
Marriage
Status: Single Current
Assignment: Chief Medical Officer aboard USS
Voyager
Other
Information:
The Doctor was first activated by Harry Kim in 2371 when Voyager
was experiencing a medical emergency. Although he program was
merely to be a temporary replacement, he has become much more than
that--a member of the Voyager family.
When the
Doctor was first activated, he was uncaring, cool, and did not have a
good bed-side manner. However, after having Kes assigned to be his
nurse to assist him in Sickbay, he began to grow (his program is
adaptable), and as a result, his mood changed and his bed-side manner
improved. He truly began to feel needed and
wanted.
In 2371,
the Doctor was given the ability to activate and de-activate his program
at will. This gave him much independence, and again, his program
grew and adapted to the new circumstances.
Throughout his years on Voyager, the Doctor has never been given
a name, but he has tried. One possibility was Doctor
Shiwtzer.
In 2373,
the Doctor received a piece of 29th century Starfleet technology-- a
portable Holo-emitter. This allowed him to leave the confines of
Sickbay at will, and even travel to planets. In 2373, he went on
his first away mission as he visited an alien mining colony, searching
for a reason to their mysterious sickness.
Although
only a program, the Doctor as had two relationships. One was with
a character in a Holodeck program. The other was a Vidiian Doctor,
Denara Pel, (he saved her life). Once, he took Denara to the
Holodeck and ran one of Tom's vintage car programs.
In 2373,
the Doctor experienced a slight difficulty when he added subroutines of
his program from noted figures in history, such as Gandhi. This
resulted in the un-stabilization of his program for a short period of
time. In that time, he attempted to kill an alien who was involved
with Kes.
Also in
2373, the Doctor's program was almost lost, since he had almost run out
of room for all his subroutines. Luckily, Kes saved the day when
she suggested the grafting of the EMH "help" program matrix to the
Doctors.
In 2374,
after Kes left Voyager, Tom Paris was assigned once again to take on
Sickbay duties (in 2371 he was briefly assigned to Sickbay per Captain
Janeway's orders). Although deeply affected by her loss, the
Doctor soon recovered. He has delighted in teaching person skills
that he once learned to Seven of Nine, Voyager's new crew
member.
Also in
2374, the Doctor's back-up module was stolen.
The
Doctor has become a valuable member of the Voyager team, saving the ship
from a deadly macro-virus, and developing a method to stop Species 8472
by using Nanoprobes. These are just two occasions where he has
shown great value to the crew. Interests:
Time on the Holodeck, opera, reading, helping Neelix with his
Program, "A Briefing with Neelix".
Neelix
Rank: Civilian &
Ambassador Date of Birth: Unknown, approx.
2335 Origin of Birth: Rinax (destroyed in
war) Family: Parents- Both Talaxians;
Siblings- Sister-Alexia Marriage
Status: Single Current
Assignment: Cook, moral officer and Ambassador aboard the USS
Voyager.
Other
Information:
Neelix, a Talaxian, first boarded Voyager in 2371 after being
retrieved from a junk-yard. Since Voyager was in un-familiar
territory, Neelix was willing to help Captain Janeway and her crew find
Voyager's missing crew members (Harry and B'Elanna) if he was to receive
food and of course, water. (a rare commodity in the Delta
Quadrant, due to the lack of replicators)
Although
Neelix's stay was originally to be only temporary, he was able to talk
Captain Janeway into allowing him and his partner, Kes, to stay aboard
Voyager. His reasoning...Voyager would need a guide, and a
cook. Janeway of course accepted his offer.
Within a
few weeks, Neelix had made himself at home on Voyager. He turned
the Captain's private mess on Deck 2 in the Mess Hall. He
appointed himself "ship morale" officer, in which he declared he would
cheer up the lonely crew.
Although
Neelix's cooking wasn't exactly appetizing at first to the crew, they
eventually adapted to his various cuisine's, such as Leola Root stew, or
his Obela Bask Stew.
In his
first year on Voyager, Neelix was abducted by the organ harvesting race,
the Vidiians. In this encounter, they removed his lungs. In
the end, Kes was willing to donate one of her lungs to save her partners
life.
Also in
his first year on Voyager, Neelix confronted the man responsible for the
destruction of his home world, Rinax.
Neelix's
expertise on the Delta Quadrant proved to be very beneficial for his
first three years on board Voyager. He guided them to planets rich
in vegetables and fruits; he warned them of space better left
untouched; he also proved to be a good ambassador as he managed to
"smooth" things over with the Kitaati, after Captain Janeway made an
offensive gesture by placing her hands on her hips.
However,
once arriving at the Nekrid Expanse, Voyager had left Neelix's area of
expertise, and he began fearing at once Captain Janeway would order him
off the ship since he no longer was needed as a guide. However,
Neelix was still very much needed on board the ship, as he became a very
valuable member of the crew.
In 2373,
Kes decided that she and Neelix should 'separate'. Although this upset
Neelix greatly, he and Kes enjoyed a fantastic friendship right to the
day she left the ship.
In 2374,
after Neelix was killed on a shuttle mission, Seven of Nine was able to
use her nanoprobes to resuscitate Neelix. The experience of death
left Neelix quite shaken, since he was no longer sure of an
afterlife.
Neelix
looks forward to spending the rest of his life with the Voyager
crew. If the crew does make it home, he claims he will have to
share all his unique recipes with the entire Alpha
Quadrant.
Interests:
Cooking, Spending time on the Holodeck, reading, making his
program "A Briefing with Neelix" each
week.
Seven of
Nine (Annika Hansen)
Rank: Honourary member of the
crew Date of Birth: Unknown;
2348 Origin of Birth: Tendara
Colony Family: Parents- Both Human civilians,
interested in exploring the cosmos.
Siblings--None Marriage Status:
Single Current Assignment: Honourary member of
the crew; works in Engineering and on various
tasks.
Other
Information:
The Hansen's by Starfleet standards were wanderers and
explorers, always wanting to seek out strange new worlds. In the
late 2330's, the Hansen's set off from the Omega Sector on board the USS
Raven. It is believed that the ship was equipped with a new type
of warp drive which allowed them to travel to the Delta Quadrant in a
very small period of time.
On her
six birthday, Annika and her parents became the first humans to ever be
assimilated by the Borg. At that point, Annika Hansen became Seven
of Nine.
It was
not until 2374 until Annika (Seven) would meet humans again. She
was designed to be an individual to work with Captain Janeway and Tuvok
to destroy Species 8472. This was due to Captain Janeway's
un-willingness to hook her mind to the collective to speed up the
process. Seven was designed to be a
messenger.
After
the modified nanoprobes stopped the threat of Species 8472, Seven
received a message from the Collective to transmit Voyager's
co-ordinates so that Voyager could be assimilated. Captain Janeway
was ready for this possibility, and Seven was cut from the
Collective.
At
first, Seven was furious at the thought of being an individual and
alone...no Collective to guide her actions. Although it took
several weeks, Seven began to adapt.
As Seven
grew to be more human and less Borg, she had to learn many tasks over
once again--manners, eating, socializing (the Doctor assisted her with
this), adjusting to a chain of command, and
emotions.
Seven's
strong determination and coldness often offended many crew members,
including B'Elanna Torres who resented her assignment to
Engineering. Seven also came head to head many times with Captain
Janeway over conflicting issues, such as helping save a member of
Species 8472.
In 2374,
Seven came face to face with the Omega particle, which the Borg consider
to be perfect, due to its energy capabilities and efficiency. The
Borg value efficiency above all else.
Seven's
Borg efficiency has often been very beneficial to the crew. She
helped Ensign Kim construct the Astrometrics Lab which had advanced
sensor capabilities, able to scan the far reaches of space. She
also used her Borg nanoprobes to save Neelix's life. She saved her
and Captain Janeway from Arturis as the 'supposed' Starfleet ship
Dauntless headed towards Borg space. Finally, she single-handedly
navigated Voyager alone for a month through a mutara
nebula.
By the
end of her first year on Voyager, Seven was still required to return to
the Cargo Bay to use one of the Borg alcoves to regenerate each
day. She also receives nutrient supplements.
Although
still adapting to human culture and procedures, Captain Janeway is sure
that Seven will one day accept her human side, and will be able to
easily interact with the crew, and follow orders to a T. However,
both the Doctor and the Captain agree she has a long way to
go.
Interests:
The ability to interact with the crew, playing Velocity on the
Holodeck with the Captain.
Kes
(former member of the crew)
Rank: Honourary member of the crew.
Date of
Birth: 2370 Origin of
Birth: The Ocampan Home world Family:
Parents-- Both Ocampan Marriage
Status: Single, formerly involved with Neelix
Current
Assignment: Was Voyager's nurse; using telepathic abilities,
moved to a higher state of existence.
Other
Information:
Kes was an Ocampan that came aboard with Neelix in 2371.
Her race, the Ocampans have an extremely short life span, only living
nine years, and in some cases, ten or eleven.
Kes was
an immediate valuable addition to the crew. She started a
hydroponics bay in a Cargo Bay, which provided fresh vegetables and
fruit to the Mess Hall for Neelix's cooking.
She also
took over nurse duties from Tom Paris in Sickbay, and greatly aided the
Doctor in times of Emergency. She also helped the Doctor develop
his bed side manner, and his interaction with the crew, and
women.
In her
early years, Kes' telepathic abilities were un-developed. However,
with the aid of Tuvok's calm mind, she was able to advance some of her
abilities.
In 2373,
she communicated telepathically with Species 8472. After the
experience, she had gained new telepathic abilities. She was able
to pick up objects mentally. She also saved Seven of Nine's life
when she mentally removed a Borg nanoprobe from a major
nerve.
Her
experience with 8472 left her to advance to be able to enter a new
dimension. Kes was unable to stop the transformations.
However, each time she began to slip into the alternate dimension, she
damaged the ship. Captain Janeway was then forced to send Kes on a
Shuttle, where she finished her transformation and left our dimension
for another. Her final gift to her family of three years was
sending the ship ten years closer to home, and past Borg
space.
Kes will
never be forgotten, and will always be deeply missed by the
crew.
