Peter Allan Fields has released some bits of information about Voyager... here's what he had to say: [This may be considered spoiler-ish information, so I'll protect it... just in case...] /* Begin included article */ Voyager Scripts Offer Variety, Power for Cast by Ben Vossner Although the main casting for Star Trek: Voyager hasn't been completed yet, several stories are already lined up for their characters. Here is my report from the March 26th Deep Space Twelve Convention, with information from Peter Allan Fields, Producer for _Deep_Space_Nine_ and writer for both series. "Journey Beyond" (The pilot episode, a 2-hour movie ala "Encounter at Farpoint" and "Emissary") - Captain Teil and the Voyager are chasing the Maquis ship, the Rocane, and they are pulled through space to a far corner of the galaxy. A power surge damages the Rocane, and her crew are forced to abandon their ship and beam aboard the Voyager. The combined crew consists of: - Captain Roberta Teil, a human, of the Voyager; - Jouna and Jarel, the members of the new race(s); - Captain K'teen, a Klingon/Human female of the Rocane; - Doctor Veris, a holographic female of the Voyager -- she can't journey off the holodeck, but her assistant, John Arting, can; - Potanga, an Apache Indian, of the Rocane -- he is fighting the Cardassians because of their actions on his planet, Dorvan 5; - Lt. Majani, the Science officer of the Voyager -- from the Mongolia or China -- graduated in upper half of his class, but just barely; - Simek, a Vulcan -- he's the security officer of the Voyager; - a young Lieutenant j.g. -- no details -- on the Rocane; - about 250 other crewmembers "Brain Games" - Jouna and Jarel perform a ritual that revitalizes memories of the crew. Dr. Veris acts to help them explore their feelings through the holodeck. Lt. Majani's father is supposed to be played by a special guest star, but no more information was given. "The Power of Youth" - When Capt. Teil, Lt. Majani, and another crewman visit an apparently uninhabited planet for some rest time, a virus gives the younger ones an increased awareness. "A View of Forever" - A cavern on a planet similar to the Guardian of Forever is visited by the crew. Several members travel to 21st century Vulcan in an attempt to rescue Simek and another Vulcan. (untitled) - Capt. K'teen and Potanga explore their roots when a passing freighter calls for medical help. "Q and Peace" - Q (John deLancie) stops by, much to the chagrin of the Captains and their crews. It seems Q is up for "a Promotion" and needs some "good deeds" to help his case. Corbin Bernsen may be back as Q-2. /* End included article */ Well, that's it! I hope you find it informative. Many thanks go to Ben Vossner and Peter Allan Fields for their help.
