| Description | ||
| Unnamed USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) personnel#Tactical Officer .282365.29 (Memory Alpha article) | Diedrich Bader (Memory Alpha article) | The Emissary (TNG) |
| Male Starfleet ensign and relief tactical officer aboard the Enterprise-D in 2365. | ||
| Tactics Officer (Memory Alpha article) | Peter Parros (Memory Alpha article) | A Matter of Honor (TNG) |
| Klingon officer serving aboard the IKS Pagh in 2365. He escorted William Riker to see Captain Kargan, but kept looking askance at the commander because he'd never seen a human before. Later, in the mess hall, he also admitted that he never knew humans had a sense of humor. Regarding his family, his mother was still living, but his father was killed in battle at Tranome Sar. | ||
| Taibak (Memory Alpha article) | John Fleck (Memory Alpha article) | The Mind's Eye (TNG) |
| Romulan officer and scientist who successfully "conditioned" Geordi La Forge to kill Klingon governor Vagh of Krios, although the assassination failed. Taibak served aboard Commander Sela's Warbird in late 2367, and his "brainwashing" efforts were part of a larger Romulan plot to disrupt the alliance between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. | ||
| Enabran Tain (Memory Alpha article) | Paul Dooley (Memory Alpha article) | The Wire (DS9) recurring thereafter |
| Former head of the Obsidian Order and the father of Elim Garak | ||
| Juliana Tainer (Memory Alpha article) | Fionnula Flanagan (Memory Alpha article) | Inheritance (TNG) |
| Widow of Noonien Soong, "mother" of Data. Recreated as an android by Noonien Soong after she died naturally. | ||
| Tal (Memory Alpha article) | Jack Donner (Memory Alpha article) | The Enterprise Incident (TOS) |
| Subcommander of the Romulan fleet that brackets the Enterprise when she "strays" into Romulan space. After Captain Kirk steals the cloaking device and beams back aboard the Enterprise, Tal sets off in pursuit. When his Commander orders him to destroy the Federation starship, he attempts to comply, but fails because Mr. Scott managed to successfully install the cloaking device and render the Enterprise "invisible." | ||
| Tal Celes (Memory Alpha article) | Zoe McLellan (Memory Alpha article) | The Haunting of Deck Twelve (VOY) Good Shepherd (VOY) |
| Bajoran sensor analyst on Voyager, assigned to Astrometrics. Despite her evident insecurity, she later demonstrated bravery, refusing to abandon Janeway in danger. ("Good Shepherd") | ||
| Taleen (Memory Alpha article) | Nancy Youngblut (Memory Alpha article) | Displaced (VOY) |
| Nyrian who explained a new customized habitat to the Voyager crew, as part of the Nyrian's forced relocation scam. | ||
| Talok (Memory Alpha article) | Todd Stashwick (Memory Alpha article) | Kir'Shara (ENT) |
| Romulan agent who posed as a Vulcan major for many years, working with the radical Administrator V'Las of the Vulcan High Command to force reunification between their two peoples. A "very long time" before 2154, Talok served under T'Pol in the Tomed mission. In 2154, V'Las ordered Talok to eradicate the remaining Syrrannites. Talok tracked down Jonathan Archer in Vulcan's Forge and attempted to take the Kir'Shara, but Archer escaped. After V'Las was removed and the Vulcan High Command disbanded, Talok's position was compromised and he was forced to leave Vulcan. (Costuming Note: Talok wore a style of Romulan uniform that would be readopted by the Imperial Fleet more than two centuries later, in 2379, during Star Trek Nemesis.) | ||
| Taris (Memory Alpha article) | Carolyn Seymour (Memory Alpha article) | Contagion (TNG) |
| Romulan subcommander of the IRW Haakona. She spotted and chased the USS Yamato NCC-71807 throughout the Romulan Neutral Zone before finally witnessing its destruction due to systems failures. When confronted almost immediately by the Enterprise-D, she denies any involvement in the Yamato's destruction and orders Captain Jean-Luc Picard to leave the Neutral Zone. Later, at Iconia, her "excuse" for having followed the Enterprise-D was to claim the planet for the Romulan Star Empire, but when Commander William T. Riker points out that neither side can claim anything in the Neutral Zone, she again orders the starship to leave, or else she'll destroy it and the Away Team on Iconia. In truth, Taris is deeply frustrated; earlier, the Haakona tapped into the Yamato's log as it was being transmitted to the Enterprise-D, and has now become crippled by Iconian "malware." When Picard steps onto her ship from the Iconian portal, she blames him for sabotage, but seems satisfied that he'll die when her ship autodestructs. Picard, however, is beamed back to the Enterprise-D, and Riker shares the "memory wipe" solution that Geordi La Forge developed with Taris. (Script Note: Riker, who receives Subcommander Taris' formal introduction, nevertheless abbreviates her rank to "commander" on a few occasions. Picard, who was never introduced to Taris, calls her "commander" by default.) | ||
| Taurik (Memory Alpha article) | Alexander Enberg (Memory Alpha article) | Lower Decks (TNG) |
| Vulcan ensign and junior engineer aboard the Enterprise-D. | ||
| Jane Taylor (Memory Alpha article) | Kipleigh Brown (Memory Alpha article) | The Forgotten (ENT) |
| EPS control specialist killed in the Xindi attack on the Enterprise in the Azati Prime system (Memory Alpha article) | ||
| Tebok (Memory Alpha article) | Marc Alaimo (Memory Alpha article) | The Neutral Zone (TNG) |
| Romulan commander who, in 2364, made the first "official" contact with the Federation after more than 53 years of Romulan isolation. He was primarily charged with discovering why several Romulan outposts along the Neutral Zone had disappeared, but the re-emergence was also orchestrated to show off the Romulans' massive new Warbird starships. Tebok ominously proclaimed "we are back" to Captain Picard. | ||
| Clark Terrell (Memory Alpha article) | Paul Winfield (Memory Alpha article) | WOK |
| Captain of the starship Reliant. Controlled by Khan Noonien Singh via a Ceti eel, forcing him to nearly kill Admiral Kirk. Rather than murder a fellow Starfleet officer, he committed suicide. Terrell is also featured in the Star Trek Vanguard book series, along with Dr. Carol Marcus. Together they begin work on the foundations of Project Genesis. | ||
| Thalen (Memory Alpha article) | Josh Drennen (Memory Alpha article)
Christopher Goodman (Memory Alpha article) |

| Thei (Memory Alpha article) | Anthony James (Memory Alpha article) | The Neutral Zone (TNG) |
| Romulan subcommander and first officer aboard Commander Tebok's Warbird. With Tebok's permission, he agrees that the Romulans and the Federation should share information regarding the mysterious disappearances of outposts on both sides of the Neutral Zone. | ||
| Thelev (Memory Alpha article) | William O'Connell (Memory Alpha article) | Journey to Babel (TOS) |
| An Orion agent posing as a member of the Andorian delegation to the 2267 "Babel" conference. His mission is to create mutual suspicion among the Federation ambassadors aboard the Enterprise. To that end, he kills Tellarite ambassador Gav and tries to frame Vulcan ambassador Sarek for the crime. Later, he attacks Captain Kirk before being caught and revealed as an Orion. To prevent himself from revealing any further information, he commits suicide by taking poison. | ||
| Tieran (Memory Alpha article) | Leigh McCloskey (Memory Alpha article) | Warlord (VOY) |

| Toddman (Memory Alpha article) | Leon Russom (Memory Alpha article) | The Die Is Cast (DS9) |
| Starfleet vice admiral at Starfleet Security in 2371. After Enabran Tain launched a joint Obsidian Order/Tal Shiar attack on the Founders' homeworld, Toddman ordered Commander Benjamin Sisko to evacuate Starbase Deep Space 9 of all nonessential personnel and put the USS Defiant NX-74205 on standby alert. He believed that when the Jem'Hadar inevitably counterattacked, they wouldn't be too particular about their targets. Toddman denied Sisko permission to take the Defiant into the Gamma Quadrant and look for Odo; Sisko's top priority was to guard Bajor. Later, after learning that Sisko went anyway, Toddman decided to forgo any courts-martial, but, with tongue in cheek, promised to either prosecute or promote Sisko if he pulled a stunt like that again. (Costuming Note: Toddman was the only Starfleet admiral since TNG began to wear a tunic other than red. In his case, he wore gold.) | ||

| Toreth (Memory Alpha article) | Carolyn Seymour (Memory Alpha article) | Face of the Enemy (TNG) |
| Romulan commander of the IRW Khazara. She received the Sotarek Citation for prevailing in a surprise battle with the Klingons. She had no love for the Tal Shiar, particularly because they dragged her father (possibly Commander Konsab) out of his home in the middle of the night, merely for speaking his mind. (Costuming Note: Toreth's rank insignia consisted of one silver arrowhead and two silver concave crescents.) | ||
| Torg (Memory Alpha article) | Stephen Liska (Memory Alpha article) | SFS |
| Klingon officer aboard Commander Kruge's Bird-of-Prey. He and his boarding party are killed when the Enterprise's self-destruct sequence destroys the Federation starship. He may have been Kruge's first officer, as he assumed the command chair when Kruge was on the surface of Genesis. | ||

| Romulan subcommander who was assigned to operate and protect the cloaking device that her government lent to the USS Defiant NX-74205 in 2371. (Costuming Note: T'Rul wore an inverted gold arrowhead rank insignia in 2371. This is different from Subcommander N'Vek's insignia in 2369.) | ||
| T'sai (Memory Alpha article) | Edna Glover (Memory Alpha article) | TMP |
| Female Vulcan Master who was to have officiated the ceremony recognizing Spock's attainment of the Kolinahr. However, when he stopped her from giving him a symbolic necklace of his achievement, T'sai mind-melded with him and discovered that he was preoccupied by a "consciousness" calling to him from deep space. She immediately ended the ceremony and pronounced that Spock had not achieved Kolinahr after all. (Cast Note: Actress Edna Glover was credited simply as "Vulcan Master." The name "T'sai" comes from the novelization of Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which was written by Gene Roddenberry.) | ||

| Bolian ambassador sent to Deep Space Nine to investigate the Bajoran wormhole in 2369. | ||
| Vagh (Memory Alpha article) | Edward Wiley (Memory Alpha article) | The Mind's Eye (TNG) |
| Klingon governor of Krios in late 2367. He accused Starfleet of supplying weapons to Kriosian rebels, who sought to gain their planet's independence from the Klingon Empire. However, Lieutenant Commander Data and Geordi La Forge discovered that the weapons actually had been constructed and distributed by the Romulans. While Vagh was aboard the Enterprise-D to witness the crew's investigation into the matter, he was nearly killed by La Forge, who had been "conditioned" by the Romulans to shoot him. | ||
| Valeris (Memory Alpha article) | Kim Cattrall (Memory Alpha article) | TUC |
| Starfleet lieutenant and Enterprise-A helmsman who was complicit in the assassination of Klingon chancellor Gorkon. Kim Cattrall chose the Eris element of the character's name, for the Greek goddess of strife, which was Vulcanised by the addition of the "Val" at the behest of director Nicholas Meyer.[2] | ||
| Valkris (Memory Alpha article) | Cathie Shirriff (Memory Alpha article) | SFS |
| An elegant Klingon agent who stole a copy of Admiral Kirk's summary of the Genesis Project. She booked passage on the Merchantman to rendezvous with a Bird-of-Prey commanded by Kruge, to whom she presented the information. When Kruge found out that she had watched the summary herself, he destroyed the Merchantman. Valkris and Kruge may have been lovers, as her final endearment to him was, "Success, my lord, and my love." | ||
| Varel (Memory Alpha article) | Susanna Thompson (Memory Alpha article) | The Next Phase (TNG) |
| Romulan officer aboard Mirok's ship who conspires with him to destroy the Enterprise-D. They decide to send a muon feedback wave along the Enterprise's power transfer beam. The muon particles would collect inside the starship's dilithium core and explode when the Enterprise engaged warp speed. | ||
| Varria (Memory Alpha article) | Jane Daly (Memory Alpha article) | The Most Toys (TNG) |
| Assistant to Kivas Fajo for 14 years. Helping Data escape from Fajo's ship led to her death. | ||
| Vash (Memory Alpha article) | Jennifer Hetrick (Memory Alpha article) | Captain's Holiday (TNG), Qpid (TNG), Q-Less (DS9) |
| An archaeologist, with a habit of pursuing her studies with unethical zeal as a profiteer, who falls in love with Picard. She first appeared in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Captain's Holiday," in which Jean-Luc Picard went to vacation on Risa. She had discovered the Tox Uthat, and thieves were determined to take it from her, but with Picard's help, that was avoided. During this adventure, she and Picard fell in love. They met up again in the episode "Qpid," in which Vash was annoyed to find that none of Picard's senior staff had even heard of her, although he tried to explain that he's "a very private man." Q abducted Vash and the Enterprise senior staff, casting them into a Robin Hood scenario, with Picard as Robin Hood and Vash as Maid Marian. After that, Vash went with Q to the Gamma Quadrant to scour archaeological sites there. She appeared in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Q-Less" two years later, in which she had mistaken an "egg" for an artifact which then hatched at the end of the episode as a lifeform. | ||
| Tova Veer (Memory Alpha article) | Christopher Liam Moore (Memory Alpha article) | Distant Origin (VOY) |
| Assistant to Professor Gegen | ||
| Vekma (Memory Alpha article) | Laura Drake (Memory Alpha article) | A Matter of Honor (TNG) |
| Klingon officer serving aboard the IKS Pagh in 2365. She said that Commander William T. Riker wasn't very attractive, but that she would "have him." She and Zegov were inquisitive and wanted to know how Riker would "endure" them … sexually. Before leaving the mess hall, she told Riker that she might be back for him. | ||
| V'Ger (Memory Alpha article) | None | TMP |
| A sentient being that evolved from Voyager 6, a fictitious space probe from the 20th Century that vanished into a black hole and was given life by a race of living machines. The story of V'Ger and its return to Earth to seek "the creator" forms the plot for the first feature film in the Star Trek series, Star Trek: The Motion Picture. V'Ger's story is also expanded upon in novelisation, most notably William Shatner's The Return. Other novelizations and videogames have strongly implied that V'Ger was the progenitor of the Borg, or was encountered by the Borg's direct ancestors. The Gene Roddenberry-authored novelization of the movie, consistently named "V'Ger" with the spelling "Vejur" throughout the novel's text, potentially making it canonical. | ||
| Velal (Memory Alpha article) | Stephen Yoakam (Memory Alpha article) | Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges (DS9) recurring thereafter |
| Romulan subcommander who was to replace Senator Kimara Cretak at a weekly Deep Space 9 meeting while she attended a conference on Romulus in 2375. Shortly afterward, Velal was promoted to general. After all Federation and Romulan ships were rendered powerless by a Breen energy dissipation weapon, Velal was genuinely dismayed to learn that only the Klingons stood between the alliance and total defeat at the hands of the Dominion. Near the end of the war, when the Dominion pulled all its forces back to Cardassian space, Velal's instinct was to merely "contain them within their perimeter" instead of attacking. He changed his mind when Vice Admiral William Ross, Captain Benjamin Sisko and General Martok decide on the latter. (Costuming Note: Velal was outfitted in a TNG-style Romulan uniform, not the black-and-gray version adopted during DS9. His rank insignia was gold and consisted of the arrowhead and one concave crescent.) | ||
| Jason Vigo (Memory Alpha article) | Ken Olandt (Memory Alpha article) | Bloodlines (TNG) |
| Bok, a Ferengi, altered Vigo's DNA to make him appear to be the son of Enterprise Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Bok used Vigo as bait as part of a plan to avenge his son's death. (Picard had killed his son.) | ||
| Miranda Vigo (Memory Alpha article) | None | Bloodlines (TNG) |
| Mother of Jason Vigo, one-time love interest of Jean-Luc Picard. | ||
| Vixis (Memory Alpha article) | Spice Williams (Memory Alpha article) | TFF |
| Klingon first officer aboard Captain Klaa's Bird-of-Prey. She's extremely muscular with severely short hair and a no-nonsense attitude. She speaks English, as she demonstrates when responding to the Enterprise-A's hail and pretending to be Starfleet Command. | ||
| V'Lar (Memory Alpha article) | Fionnula Flanagan (Memory Alpha article) | Fallen Hero (ENT) |
| Vulcan ambassador who negotiated the first territorial accords between Vulcan and Andoria in 2097. She also met a young T'Pol at the Ka'Tann conference. In 2152, she infiltrated the government of Mazar to expose corrupt officials and had to be extracted by Enterprise NX-01. | ||
| V'Las (Memory Alpha article) | Robert Foxworth (Memory Alpha article) | The Forge (ENT) recurring thereafter |
| Vulcan administrator of the Vulcan High Command. Addressed as "excellency." Until he was removed as leader in 2154, he pursued a radical agenda that was contrary to the true teachings of Surak. He militarized the Vulcan fleet and suppressed the practice of mind melds. He was secretly working with a Romulan agent, Talok, to force the reunification of their peoples. When V'Las tried to start a war with the Andorian Imperial Guard, one of his ministers, Kuvak, shot (stunned) him, thus stopping the conflict and disbanding the Vulcan High Command. | ||
| Vorik (Memory Alpha article) | Alexander Enberg (Memory Alpha article) | Fair Trade (Voy) recurring thereafter |
| Starfleet ensign and Vulcan engineer aboard the Starship Voyager. He bears a striking resemblance to Ensign Taurik, another Vulcan engineer who served on the Enterprise-D. | ||
| Vreenak (Memory Alpha article) | Stephen McHattie (Memory Alpha article) | In the Pale Moonlight (DS9) |
| A key member of the Romulan Senate from 2360 to 2374, Vice-Chairman of the Tal Shiar, secretary of the War Plans Council, and one of Proconsul Neral's most trusted advisors. Ardently pro-Dominion, Vreenak was key in negotiating the non-aggression pact between the Romulan Star Empire and the Dominion in late 2373. However, his death caused the Romulans to join the Dominion War on the side of the Federation-Klingon alliance. | ||

| Lieutenant Darien Wallace was born on Altair IV & was a Starfleet crewmember who served aboard the USS Enterprise-D from 2364 to 2371. Wallace's personal information was displayed on a viewscreen to Counselor Deanna Troi in a psychic phenomena. The character appeared in 66 episodes and Star Trek Generations | ||

| Robert Wesley (Memory Alpha article) | Barry Russo (Memory Alpha article)
James Doohan (Memory Alpha article) |
The Ultimate Computer (TOS), One of Our Planets Is Missing (TAS) |
| Starfleet commodore commanding both the USS Lexington and a battlegroup of starships, later retired from the service to become governor of the planet Mantilles. | ||
| West (Memory Alpha article) | Rene Auberjonois (Memory Alpha article) | TUC |
| Starfleet colonel who proposes "Operation Retrieve" to rescue Kirk and McCoy from Qo'noS. Later, during the Khitomer Conference, West disguises himself as a Klingon and attempts to assassinate Chancellor Azetbur and/or the Federation President. Scotty, however, spots "Klingon West" in his sniper's nest and shoots him down. Klingon colonel Worf notices from the would-be assassin's shattered skull that the blood is not Klingon, whereupon West's mask is removed and his true identity revealed. (Note: "Colonel" is an anomalous rank in the Starfleet hierarchy, never used before or since this movie. In the U.S. Armed Forces, "colonel" is an Army, Marine Corps and Air Force rank that is equivalent to a Navy "captain." Colonel West, however, did not wear a Starfleet captain's insignia, but rather an admiral's. Thus, the whole rank/costuming situation was a mess.) | ||
| Westervliet (Memory Alpha article) | Byron Morrow (Memory Alpha article) | For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky (TOS) |
| Starfleet admiral who relieves the Enterprise of any further responsibility regarding the asteroid ship Yonada. He says that Starfleet Command will take care of the problem, while the Enterprise must continue on her mission. (Casting Note: Byron Morrow also played Admiral Komack in "Amok Time". In the interest of continuity, some Star Trek fans have suggested that, since "Westervliet" was never named in dialogue, it can be disregarded and "Komack" retconned in its place. However, "Westervliet" is identified in the script and in the ending credits, so, regardless of the oversight regarding the actor's two roles, canon demands that "Westervliet" should stand.) | ||

| Worf (Memory Alpha article) | Michael Dorn (Memory Alpha article) | TNG, DS9 GEN, FCT, INS, NEM |
| The elder of two sons of Mogh. Before young Worf reached the "Age of Inclusion," Mogh and his mother were killed in a Romulan attack on the planet Khitomer. Worf was rescued by Starfleet Chief Petty Officer Sergey Rozhenko of the USS Intrepid NCC-38907 and raised as his adopted son, first on the farming colony Gault and later on Earth. When he was old enough, Worf and his step-brother Nikolai applied to and were accepted into Starfleet Academy. Nikolai hated it and dropped out, but Worf graduated, thus becoming the first Klingon in Starfleet. in 2359, Worf met a half-Klingon, half-Human woman, K'Ehleyr, with whom he had a brief relationship. In 2364, Lieutenant Junior Grade Worf was a command officer assigned to the bridge of the Federation's flagship, USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D. He wore a red uniform and was also permitted to wear a gold-colored cloth baldric in honor of his Klingon heritage. In late 2364, following the untimely death of Lieutenant Natasha Yar, Worf was appointed "acting security chief," a position that became permanent in 2365. Worf's uniform color changed to yellow and he began wearing a metal baldric. Near the end of 2365, Worf reconnected with K'Ehleyr and they mated. In 2366, Worf was promoted to lieutenant. That same year, he accepted discommendation from the Klingon Empire, fallaciously acknowledging for the good of the empire that his father, Mogh, had betrayed the Klingons on Khitomer and given the Romulans access codes that allowed them to attack the colony. However, it was really Councillor Duras' father, Ja'rod, who was to blame. Early in 2371, Worf was promoted to lieutenant commander, just prior to the destruction of the Enterprise-D. | ||
| Worf (Memory Alpha article) | Michael Dorn (Memory Alpha article) | TUC |
| Klingon colonel who, in 2293, acts as defense counsel for Kirk and McCoy during their trial for "assassinating" Chancellor Gorkon. Later, during the Khitomer Conference, after Scotty kills a Klingon sniper, Worf notes that the color of the victim's blood isn't Klingon at all. The would-be assassin is revealed to be Starfleet colonel West. (Conjecture: Because Michael Dorn was cast in this role, it is generally assumed that Colonel Worf was the father of Mogh, who would later sire Starfleet lieutenant/lieutenant commander Worf and Klingon commander/captain Kurn in the 24th century.) | ||
