U.S.S Sally Ride
The Sally Ride
U.S.S. Sally Ride (NCC-74710)
- Class: Intrepid
The U.S.S Sally Ride is a sister ship to the U.S.S Voyager which went missing not long ago.
- Cool Starship: As you'd expect from a Federation starship, and an Intrepid class.
- Everything Sensor: The Intrepid class has an impressive sensor suite. In fact it's one of the special traits of the class in game, reducing difficulty when using sensors by one.
- Mid-Season Upgrade: Partway through season three, it gets outfitted with ablative armor and quantum torpedos.
- Super-Speed: The Sally Ride can achieve speeds up to Warp 9.975, faster than any other Starfleet vessel.
Captain Rafael Martinez
Captain Rafael Martinez
- Race: HumanPlayed by: Hector Navarro
Captain Rafael Martinez, recently promoted Human Captain of the U.S.S. Sally Ride.
- Ascended Fanboy: In-Universe. Captain Rafael Martinez, who idolizes Kirk, has risen up to the rank of Captain himself.
- Ambiguously Bi: He shows romantic interest in Tanya Moore, and admits that Zazrit's exposed pecs are pretty distracting.
- Covert Distress Code: Captain Martinez shares a chess-themed code with XO Rue.
- The Leader: He's the Captain, after all.
- My Greatest Failure: He sabotaged his Kobayashi Maru test at Starfleet Academy and one of his classmates took the fall for him. Starfleet let them leave the Academy while Martinez went on to Command School, even after he confessed.
- Noodle Incident: It's never explained how Martinez hijacked the Sally Ride and took her around Pluto.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: He knows he's surrounded by experts and takes their advice at every opportunity.
Commander Junil Rue
Commander Junil Rue
- Race: TrillPlayed by: Sam de Leve
Commander Junil Rue, XO/Tactical Officer and Joined Trill.
- Affectionate Nickname: Rue has one for Ensign Sage, "Little Bird".
- Partially the case for the crew's nickname for Rue themself, "Commander Killjoy."
- Badass Boast: To Admiral Nash:Rue: I'm the son of a bitch who'll never give up, sir.
- Badass Teacher: After their injury and before becoming XO, Rue taught combat at Starfleet Academy.
- Berserk Button: The Borg. Full. Stop. After their experience at the battle of Wolf 359 Rue despises the Collective, not only for what it did to their crewmates, but the injuries sustained by the Rue symbiont that ensure they could very well be its last host.
- Covert Distress Code: They share a chess-themed code with Captain Martinez.
- Handicapped Badass: They get around on crutches, but that is no deterrent to their combat capabilities, as demonstrated when they flatten a Zakdorn boarding crew in seconds.
- Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Commander Rue’s apparent nickname of “Commander Killjoy.”
- Number Two: As Executive Officer of the Sally Ride.
Lt. Commander T'Lan
Lieutenant Commander T'Lan
- Race: VulcanPlayed by: Aliza Pearl
Lieutenant Commander T’Lan, the Vulcan Science Officer.
- Artifact Domination: The artifact in "I Remember" fills T'Lan up to the brim with thousands of years of memories from millions of individuals from an ancient civilization.
- The Comically Serious: As is standard for a Vulcan.
- Long-Lost Relative: It turns out that she and Lark share a distant Bajoran ancestor.
- Omnidisciplinary Scientist: She's experienced in astrophysics, xenobiology, archaeology, and more.
- Rage Breaking Point: She doesn't get the answers she wants inside the Orb of Journeys, and it causes her to snap and go into an Unstoppable Rage.
- Ship Tease: She seems to have some interest in Ambassador Rell.
- The Spock: Lieutenant Commander T’lan, fittingly enough. When the ambassador at the Betazoid Embassy briefly relates his suspicions that he was intentionally placed on the under-staffed unfinished Starbase 138, T’lan’s response is to encourage him to “seek the logic.”
- Time Master: Downplayed. Her Bajoran heritage makes her immune to the Time Stands Still effect of the isolitic warhead detonation in the Doctor Who RPG crossover episode.
- Unstoppable Rage: Coming out of the Orb of Journeys, she slams the Orb's casing into the wall and runs for the shuttle bay. Sage figures out where she's going and raises a forcefield over the door, and T'Lan just about goes feral. It takes multiple stun blasts and Rue's intervention to take her down.
Dr. Throlo Sh’shirros
Doctor Throlo Sh'shirros
- Race: AndorianPlayed by: Amy Dallen
Dr. Throlo Sh’shirros, the Andorian Chief Medical Officer.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: She's got bright blue skin. After her mutation activates, her skin is more teal.
- Frontier Doctor: Before joining Starfleet, she worked as a doctor in a horrific Andorian mine to pay off her medical school debt.
- Happily Married: She ended up marrying Lassie LeClerc, aka Elle McQueen, in the epilogue.
- Healing Factor: Her body can assimilate Borg nanites thanks to a mutation caused by Genny.
- Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Part of her uniform as a medical officer is a long blue coat.
- The Medic: She's the ship's Chief Medical Officer.
- Motor Mouth: Throlo can talk at a mile a minute, especially when she's curious or worried or uncomfortable.
- Mutants: Unbeknownst to anyone, her contact with Genny's original form caused a latent mutation in her body, activated when a Borg drone attempted to assimilate her—the mutation caused her cells to assimilate the Borg nanites, with the side effect of adding a green tint to her blue skin.
- Team Mom: She's always looking after the physical (as is her job) and emotional wellbeing of the rest of the crew. She's especially maternal towards Genny Plantface, the Project Genesis lifeform.
- Wide-Eyed Idealist: She knows that there's good out there in the universe.
Lieutenant JG Lark Sage
Lieutenant Junior Grade Lark Sage/Razka Annel
- Race: BajoranPlayed by: Bonnie Gordon
Lieutenant Junior Grade Lark Sage, the Bajoran helmswoman.
- Ace Pilot: She takes the Ride in and out of a planet mid-cataclysm with no serious damage or casualties.
- Affectionate Nickname: Rue has one for Sage, "Little Bird".
- Communications Officer: She operates the ship's comms.
- Distracted by the Sexy: In regards to Zazrit.
- Happily Adopted: She was raised by human Earth ambassadors in a high-profile adoption (as she was essentially a refugee child).
- Innocently Insensitive: Lark Sage helpfully offers that task might be done sooner, specifically an evacuation, as some of the personnel listed have already died!
- Intergenerational Friendship: Sage and Zhiv bond quite a bit over engineering.
- Long-Lost Relative: She and T'Lan share a distant Bajoran ancestor.
- Look, a Distraction!: The Distraction Dance.
- Orphan's Plot Trinket: She has half of a Bajoran earring. She's given the other half by another Bajoran when she graduates Starfleet Academy by someone who implies that her parents are still alive and well. Long after, she discovers a chip inside the earring; the chip has only a recording of her mother's voice saying "Your name is Razka Annel and I love you."
- Parental Abandonment: She is an orphan, after all. Or is she?
- Promotion, Not Punishment: Despite the numerous infractions that would've resulted in a court-martial (at best), her service record contained more good than bad, which earned her a promotion from Ensign to Lieutenant Junior Grade.
- Time Master: Downplayed. Her Bajoran heritage makes her immune to the Time Stands Still effect of the isolitic warhead detonation in the Doctor Who RPG crossover episode.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Nobody in the universe loves cream soda as much as Lark Sage.
Chief Mala Ren
Chief Petty Officer Mala Ren
- Race: BetazoidPlayed by: Gina DeVivo
Chief Mala Ren, the Betazoid Engineering second-in-command (from Episode 12 The Orphan, pt.2).
- Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Mala is easily the quirkiest member of the crew and gets away with a lot of insubordinate comments because she's that good of an engineer.
- Child Prodigy: Zhiv comments that she acts like a know-it-all, mostly because she...knows it all.
- The Empath: As a betazoid, she can constantly feel the surface-level emotions of those around her. Usually it's not a big deal, but in situations like a warzone between Klingon factions, with people fighting for their lives and dying all around her, it's nearly incapacitating.
- Hot-Blooded: She gets riled up easily when it comes to her ship and her crew.
- The Lost Lenore: Nemid Telux, her bond-mate who died prior to the events of the show.
- Mindlink Mates: She had a bond-mate prior to joining Starfleet. He died while the two of them were psychically linked, causing Mala to throw herself into engineering, spending time around things that didn't think.
- Remember the New Guy?: Introduced in Episode 12, having apparently been Zhiv's second-in-command the entire time. Rue, being the XO, also greets her with familiarity when they beam back aboard the ship in the following episode.
- Wrench Wench: Zhiv readily admits that she's the most talented engineer on the ship.
Lt. Commander Veth Zhiv
Lieutenant Commander Veth Zhiv
- Race: Tellarite
Lieutenant Commander Veth Zhiv, the Tellarite Chief Engineer.
- Hot-Blooded
- Intergenerational Friendship: Sage and Zhiv bond quite a bit over engineering.
- Kicked Upstairs: Lt. Cmdr. Zhiv certainly considers his reassignment to be much better, despite the implication that the ones responsible for his reassignment were just trying to get rid of him.
- Mr. Fixit
- Quickly-Demoted Leader: Just before taking him on-board as Chief Engineer, former Captain Veth Zhiv was dropped in rank due to his personality quirks and a slew of incidents.
Starfleet Personnel
Admiral Norwell Nash
- Race: Human
An Admiral of Starfleet and seemingly Captain Martinez's immediate superior.
- Bad Boss: Played straight and subverted. He is absolutely a Bad Boss to Rue, but he at least acts considerably more lenient in his interactions with Captain Martinez.
- Hate Sink
- Noble Bigot with a Badge
- Pet the Dog: In the first season finale, Nash reveals that Starfleet has been trying to co-opt the Sally Ride for military purposes, a move Nash has been fighting tooth and nail. He continues this through to the end of the episode by stationing them way out in deep space, away from the brewing conflict.
The Man in Black (SPOILER CHARACTER)
Driden Rue
- Race: Trill
The previous host of the Rue symbiont, a Section 31 operative.
- Posthumous Character: He was killed attempting to leave Section 31, and exists in the present as memories of the Rue symbiont.
- Split Personality: He's a past life of the Rue symbiont, hidden by the Symbiosis Commission.
- Split-Personality Takeover: As time goes on, he becomes bolder in offering his help to Junil—sometimes by assuming control of their body.
- The Spook: He was a Section 31 operative, and as a secret branch of Starfleet intelligence, was likewise kept secret.
- Unperson: Section 31 was led to believe that the Rue symbiont perished with Driden; Lassie LeClerc secretly the symbiont back to Trill where it could be given to a new host, who was in turn told that they were Rue's first host.
- Walking Spoiler: He first appears in the season one finale, and his identity is fully revealed during season two.
The Klingon Empire
K'Dok
- Played by: Jason Charles MillerRace: Klingon
A Klingon intelligence officer on a secret mission.
- Number Two: He was second in command on his ship, the B'rel Bird of Prey IKS Maj'Ram.
- Sole Survivor: He was the only person to survive the Cardassian attack on his vessel.
The Orion Syndicate
Zazrit
- Race: Orion
The ex-captain of an Orion vessel, seeking out the Sally Ride after escaping a mutiny.
- The Captain: Well, formerly. His third-in-command successfully led a mutiny against him, and he narrowly escaped with his life.
- Immune to Mind Control: He is unaffected by Orion pheromones, which does not make him a popular guy.
- Mr. Fanservice: His outfit is described as pretty skimpy, leaving plenty of his muscular chest exposed.
Civilians
Valia Farren
- Played by: Gina DeVivoRace: El-Aurian
A mysterious "listener" who arrives to help the Sally Ride with a mysterious artifact.
- Deus ex Machina: She flits into the story without warning with the perfect solution to the unsolvable story arc, then flits right back out.
- The Empath: She's a psychically-gifted individual and is able to perceive the ancient memories trapped inside of the artifact, unable to pass on.
- My Significance Sense Is Tingling: She's first alerted to the Ancient Artifact's appearance from lightyears away by the perpetual taste of blueberries in her mouth.
