Going off the latest 'Friday' question asked by Midnightlich a lot of people would (myself included) would like to see a 'Traveler' version of Wesley Crusher that was starting to manifest in the Next Gen episode Journey's End. So my question is what other personas of other characters would you like to see? I know a lot of these will be main character variants but there are likely other options. Some of mine are:

Beverly Crusher commanding the USS Enterprise from Descent.
Odo from Homefront (could be either Federation or Federation/Bajoran)
Storyteller Miles O'Brien
Wild card idea: Megan and Jenny Delaney

So what personas would you like to see?

Missed chance if this does not include a reference to Starship Mine(?). (I mean that ep in which Beverly, eventually, is the sole crewmember of E'prise-D. Very nice ep!)

EDIT: ep title is Remember Me, of course.

I'd also welcome a Saavik persona (new card or AI) with a Robin Curtis image. I always thought she was great in the role, too. Perhaps I even liked her better -- not sure, and no matter, I liked both Saaviks. And miss the one as a card.

+ a gagillion!

My old roommate, who introduced me to this game, was a HUGE Robin Curtis fan, hence her handle was Tallera257.

+1. Robin Curtis > Kirstie Alley. And that's no insult to Kirstie Alley! Curtis is just awesome.

(Also, she was a joy to work with back when that was still allowed.)

How did you work together with her -- was it for your show? And why is that not allowed anymore? What did you do!? :? :shifty: ( :lol: )

Ah, to have all those old friends who got us into this game still with us.

The friend who got me into the game by handing me a huge stack of extra cards back in 1995 gave away his 1E (and small 2E) collection because he got married and had kids.

These are the friends for whom "universal printability" is excellent news. :)

Signed,

Yep! She co-starred in our 50th anniversary special (and starred in the prelude vignette). She was just awesome.

However, that same year, another fan film called Axanar abused CBS's trust in a number of ways, which led (bizarrely, at Axanar's demand) to the creation of a set of official fan film guidelines from CBS. Audio dramas are exempt, and CBS has made clear it doesn't really want to sue anyone if it has a choice, but we nevertheless comply to the extent that we can. And one of the guidelines is "no working with Trek actors in fan shows anymore". So no more 50th style episodes for us, and no more appearances from Ursaline Bryant as Nightmare Tryla Scott (which we did for our Season 3 finale).

Reading it now, I do remembet the Axanar controversy. I enjoy too few fan materials. Too little time -- too often here.

I did watch Horizon (ST ENT era fan film), though; and was very entertained and quite impressed.

How awesome that you had those opportunities in the past, though. :thumbsup:
