Character Descriptions
CAPTAIN KATHRYN JANEWAY
Kathryn Janeway is a human Starfleet Captain who leads the combined teams of
Starfleet and Maquis personnel. She is a tough Captain, who is not afraid to
take chances. She is not the only female Captain in Starfleet, however, her
intelligence, thoughtfulness, dedication and diplomacy have earned her respect
and recognition as one of the best Starfleet Captains -- male or female.
LIEUTENANT TOM PARIS
Tom Paris comes from a proud family of Starfleet legends. When the pressures of
living up to the family name resulted in tragedy, Paris turned to the Maquis
for fulfillment as a fighter pilot. This endeavor ended when Paris was captured
by the Federation as a renegade. Taken from prison and given a second chance
by Captain Janeway, Paris boarded the Starship Voyager determined to prove his
worth to the Captain and himself.
CHAKOTAY
This fearless Captain of the Maquis ship agrees to become First Officer of the
U.S.S. Voyager when his crew joins forces with the Federation. A Native
American who attended Starfleet Academy and became a Lieutenant Commander,
Chakotay resigned his position to join the Maquis, a group of freedom fighters.
When he is reunited with the Federation aboard the U.S.S. Voyager, he quickly
wins the respect of even the most die-hard Starfleet veterans.
TUVOK
Tuvok, a Vulcan male, is the Starfleet Tactical/Security Officer for the U.S.S.
Voyager. His fit and active regimen and his ability to use his physical skills
in battle inspire the Voyager crew, while his Vulcan equanimity and calm
demeanor make him a valued peace keeper of the ship. Tuvok is one of the most
respected members of the crew, with his powerful combination of wisdom,
experience and vitality.
HARRY KIM
Harry Kim is fresh out of the Starfleet Academy when he is made the
Operations/Communication Officer of the U.S.S. Voyager. Though he enjoyed a
stellar academic career and welcomes the challenges and adventures of space
exploration, Harry is nervous about living up to his own expectations. Being
lost so far from home is hardest on Harry, who has grown up under the loving
shelter of his parents.
B'ELANNA TORRES
B'Elanna, a beautiful half-Klingon female, is the Chief Engineer. A former
student at Starfleet Academy, B'Elanna quit and joined the Maquis. She is
tough, knowledgeable and independent, but her mixed heritage has manifested
itself in a state of confusion and denial. Now that B'Elanna is unable to
release her frustrations through fighting the Cardassians, she must learn to
accept herself and her conflicting heritage.
NEELIX
From a galaxy never explored before, Neelix is a male alien unlike any ever
encountered in
the Star Trek universe. On the U.S.S. Voyager, he serves as guide, cook and
all-around handyman. Often times, he designates himself the commentator on the
human condition. Neelix is a charming yet scraggly scavenger with wit and
instincts that have enabled him to survive in this dangerous part of space.
KES
Kes is a female alien from the Ocampa species, a type of alien never before
seen in the Star Trek universe. She is the delicate, beautiful young lover of
Neelix, and although she appears as a 20 year-old in human years, Kes is
actually a one-year-old Ocampa (a species with a life span of only nine years).
Kes adores Neelix and helps him with the cooking aboard the U.S.S. Voyager, but
she much prefers her time exploring the Starship and
making new friends.
THE DOCTOR
The Doctor is a holographic figure -- an emergency medical program devised by
Starfleet. When the ship's doctor is killed, The Doctor becomes the resident
physician aboard the U.S.S. Voyager. He is programmed with up-to-date medical
knowledge and is capable of treating any disease or injury.
