New Gauntlet Character Speculation

So last week, Ben announced that a new gauntlet character would be coming "very soon." We haven't had a speculation thread in a while, so this seems like a good time to start one!

    My top choices, per series, would look something like this:

    TOS: Gary Mitchell
    TNG: Kivas Fajo (although, we've already had three...maybe choose a different series?)
    DS9: Li Nalas
    VOY: Henry Starling (I've previously voted for The Rock here, but I feel like I would rather see him get the Bones McCoy treatment)
    ENT: Major Hayes
    DIS: Control Airiam? (honestly, I feel like they've already introduced all of the characters who could really be worthy of getting the Gauntlet title)
    PIC: Laris (God knows I wouldn't hate Akimbo Seven)

    Basically, I really want someone with a high SEC proficiency at the end of the day (even though my above choices don't all reflect that lol).

    DS9 Pah-wraith Jake Sisko or Prophet Kira.
    Voyager - The Rock
    Enterprise - Acting Cap'n Tucker or Rescue Reed
    Picard - Determined Narissa Rizzo

    those royalties would be astronomical, for such a small studio (WRG) or their holding company (TP)

    Locutus, Guinan, and Argus are from TNG. Caretaker is from VOY. We need someone from DS9 like Prophet Kira or Pah Wraith Jake.
    Let’s fly!

    Agree with the people saying we need a DS9 Gauntlet character. Deceptive Eddington would be my vote

    Maybe Altan Soong? Fits with PIC being the most recent series, and would have ENG/SCI/??? to join Caretaker in being an ENG powerhouse, plus high on SCI proficiency.

    I would use Worf from that episode where he's basically controlling Quark in that duel with a Klingon.

    Like the idea but Worf has soooo many golds already

    DS9 would definitrly be my first choice. Li Nalas was my pick, because his character felt sufficiently important for Gauntlet, but both of those options are fantastic and probably more interesting lol

    You're right, but none have MED, SCI, or ENG. That variant at least would use some tech which would make ENG justifiable. And really, any time Worf has a bat'leth, he's a good fit for gauntlet. :)

    Someone from TP/WRG. He was the guest last Wednesday on the chat.

    I support Akimbo Seven ™, with amazing Sec and decent Secondary/Tertiary Rolls.

    A very simple, staightforward....Kai Winn. Cmd/dip/sci

    Failing that a very simple, straightforward Gul Dukat cmd/sec/dip

    Or failing that...Lt Cmdr Eddington Sec/cmd/eng

    Why not EHM Bashir? Med/eng/sci

    I agree that The Rock would be a great SEC-only monster. For the next gauntlet special, I can see Gary Mitchell (COM/SEC/SCI) working out alright, Queen Seven (COM/ENG/SEC) would be fun, and Pah-Wraith Jake or Prophet Kira (SEC/COM/x) would be really neat. As a suggestion out of left field, how about Trellium-Infected T’Pol (SEC/ENG/SCI)? From the episode where they find the Selaya, not later on when she’s addicted. Another one could be Dying Shinzon (SEC/COM/x), with the artwork coming from when he’s in the captain’s chair of the Scimitar with a face full of scowl.

    All of these suggestions are oddly coming out as some version of COM/SEC/x, which is boring from a voyage standpoint but might actually be useful in the gauntlet. Few gauntleteers beyond Kahless The Unaffordable are truly strong in both those skills, mostly because COM gauntleteers are weak in general compared to other skills that aren’t ENG.

    I’d go with either Gary Mitchell (TOS) or Kevin Uxbridge (TNG). Those are definitely at least two I’d live to see.
