History Characters / StarTrekVoyagerSevenOfNine

* HiddenDepths: "Someone To Watch Over Me" reveals that Seven has a beautiful singing voice with little training, explained in-universe as the result of one of her cyborg implants altering her vocal chords.

* TokenHeroicOrc: Although Seven was Human, she was assimilated by the Borg at the age of six and remained with them until she was rescued by the crew of ''Voyager.'' The Borg are, of course, one of Star Trek's most persistent villains. During her earlier episodes, her RestrainingBolt occasionally came loose, after which chaos predictably ensued.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: JustifiedTrope by dint of being assimilated at the age of 6 and consequently not being called "Annika Hansen" for decades.

* ParentalNeglect: The Hansens were unconventional scientists studying the Borg. Instead of leaving their young daughter with a guardian of some kind, they brought her along to ''the Delta Quadrant'' and conducted their research in extremely close proximity. For context, the Borg are the most dangerous race known in the galaxy at that time. They apparently loved it (right up to the point they were assimilated) and even brought a Borg drone onto their ship and disregarded the danger to their daughter apart from briefly reassuring her that they would be fine.
** Seven later {{Lampshaded}} this, saying that people who put their own goals over the safety of their children don't deserve to be parents.

* RaisedByOrcs: Thanks to the actions of her parents she was raised by Borg. Deconstructed because while she retains several Borg enhancements (physical strength, eidetic memory, analytical mind, and a supply of nanoprobes), she has fully re-asserted her humanity within a couple episodes of being introduced. The character development comes from the fact that she was artifically aged after being assimilated as a child, and thus NeverGrewUp, resuming her humanity with the emotional maturity and social skills of a 9-year-old in the body (and intellect) of a fully-grown adult.

* BlemishedBeauty: At first, she came with all the many cybernetic appendages that typify Borg, but over time, these were removed and replaced with regenerated tissue or more natural-looking bionetic implants. Seven is mostly seen with a residual interface around her right eye, and little else. Seven is played by the pretty and shapely Creator/JeriRyan.

A former Borg drone liberated by the crew of ''[[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]]''. She now works for the Fenris Rangers, a VigilanteMilitia that tries to maintain order in the former Romulan Neutral Zone.\\

* SplitPersonality: A techno-virus in one episode gives her at least seven alternate personalities of people she's helped assimilate. [[StatusQuoIsGod She's cured by the end of the episode]], but not before to trying to mate with Torres (Klingon), lecturing Tuvok on security procedures (Vulcan), and offering to buy the ship's viewscreen (Ferengi).

* DinnerAndAShow: Her first date leaves a lot to be desired. She and the hapless Lt. Chapman are both nervous, leading to a string of dinnertime disasters: Seven splitting a lobster [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength with such ferocity]] that she splats Chapman in the face with it, and ballroom dancing with enough fervor to break his arm. ("Someone to Watch Over Me")

* ContrastingReplacementCharacter: To Kes after replacing her. Kes is an Ocampan who worked as a medical assistant to the Doctor while Seven is a former human turned Borg who becomes the science officer of the ''Voyager''. While Kes leaves ''Voyager'' to explore her newfound telepathic powers after the events of "The Gift", Seven is reluctantly forced to join the ''Voyager'' and liberated against her will from the Collective, where she struggles to find her humanity at the start of her first appearance. Personality, Kes is a NiceGirl who is an InnocentFlowerGirl, being TheHeart who shows a caring personality towards her other crew members; by contrast, Seven is notably emotionally detached from her crew members, preferring to use logic and analytical thinking over emotions, likely due to being from the Borg Collective for a long time where she had LackOfEmpathy. Kes is mentally and physically older, but is actually younger than she looks. Seven is the opposite: she's physically in her 20s, but is mentally younger.

* {{Foil}}: To Captain Janeway. TheCaptain is warm-hearted and looks out for the safety of others, in her crew or not, while Seven is a bit cold and mainly trying to find ways to adapt herself in order to get the mission completed first over the safety of others. However, both are noble people deep down underneath their cold shells.

* SameCharacterButDifferent: She no longer speaks in a stilted robotic manner, or looks meticulously put together. On Voyager she advocated avoiding contact with aliens and giving up humanitarian efforts. Now she has dedicated her life to [[WeHelpTheHelpless protecting people]].
