Personal Non-Player Characters (PNPCs)

Starfleet

• Jess Webber: An 91-year-old Human/Gideon operations officer who keeps Nick Falls young.
• Danielle Vistain: A human engineer who loves shuttles, even if they don't always love her.

My first NPC whom I later adopted into a PNPC.

• Maravosh: A Risian pilot previously stationed on Starbase 301 and close friend of Zhou Tai-Sheng.
• Dre'lith Chaun: An Andorian helmsman who needs to learn some new pick up lines.
• Reez: A Denobulan engineer, whose life was saved by Roshanara Rahman during an accident aboard the USS Tempest.
• Lidia Ivanova: A human security officer and a close friend of Tenzin Zhou.

She was previously posted to the USS Pioneer. In a message to Zhou, she mentions meeting a "kid doctor" aboard that vessel who later is revealed to be Charles Sampi.

• Xio: A Rodulan engineer.

Retired/Inactive Starfleet PNPCs

Ayelet eventually become my primary PNPC for much of 2011 and one of my favorite characters to sim. Ironically, she was meant to be only a minor side character for a mission-specific PNPC, namely Msafiri Bakari.

• Pok: A Ferengi medical student who completed a clinical rotation aboard the USS Tiger-A.

My first PNPC (and the first character I killed off).

Reza holds the distinction of having the second: "The Face of Treason"
