After you brought them up and I was staring at that evocative Vulcan home decor I actually bought a bag of them the next day when I was at the grocery store.
The whole ones, not the pieces.
Those are for noobs. 😀
Watched DS9 “Duet” last night. A personal favorite. Kira’s change of heart was very touching. I would love to see Aamin Marritza in my crew, looking like Gul Darhe’el of course. I could settle for a 3 star, but he was supposed to be such an outstanding file clerk, a 4 star with only Diplomacy could be justified.
I’d also really like to see a TOS Zephram Cochrane and of course my usual plea for TNG Tryla Scott.
And how about changing Orion Vina's art to something a little more in character. The art of her holding the torch is kind of lame. She deserves better.
... or at least add her as a new Legendary, maybe Dancing Orion Vina.
TOS kelinda from By any Other Name
TNG Chief O'Brien
Any version of Duras
TNG Final Mission Wesley
TNG Maquis Sito
TNG Rascals Mega
TNG Four Lights Picard
ENT Zombie Vulcans & Infected T'Pol
"Civilian" Ezri Dax
- from the mini-episode arc when she goes home to New Sydney and her mother to rescue Chief O'Brien from the Orion Syndicate
- 5-Star yellow quality (can we get another yellow Ezri please?!)
- Traits: Trill, Starfleet, Federation, Civilian, Desperate, Inspiring, Counselor, Investigator
(I think that's a pretty reasonable set of traits?)
"Time's Arrow" Samuel Clemens
(and if there's any legal issues with the name, Mark Twain?)
Quality: 5-Star Yellow
- Inspiring (he was a famous real-world writer)
- Displaced (he briefly was on Dividia II and then the Enterprise)
- Investigator (he stalked Guinan and Data)
- ResourcefulORCrafty (he stalked Guinan and Data very well, and seemed to have a lot of contacts)
- Human (goes without saying)
- Civilian (he's a 19th century writer)
- Writer (take that Jake Sisko!)
- Communicator (maybe? as per writer, and he was very influential in real-life)
- SaboteurORThief (maybe? he did disrupt Data's time-shift device by stealing a part)
- Spy (maybe? same as above - he was caught actually spying on Data & Guinan's conversation in the very image I have selected for his character portrait)
If you wanna be really cruel and sneaky gits, you can make a "19th Century Data (4-star purple)" that can merge with "Century Guinan (already exists)" to create Clemens as a Hybrid character. That also seems fun.
Edit: I have improved my blog-fu, also formatting and grammar

Indeed. I woud go full in for Mark Twain. I would even buy him from the honor hall, from whence I've never bought a legendary.
I'd like to see new crew as well, but with one catch.... NO MORE VARIANTS!!! I loathe playing games where you have 5 and 6 of the same character. If anything the characters should progress from 1* into a different variant once they become 2* ect.
I remember disliking this just as much as when I played Star Wars Galaxy of heroes. Rebel Han, Storm Trooper Han, Smugger Han. Farm Boy Luke, Jedi Luke. Anakin/Vader. Emperor Palatine/Darth Sidious.
Its even worse here though.... And the name and * level of the variants make no sense either. So for instance you got Maquis Belanna & Chief Engineer Torres at 1*, but then you got Injured Torres at 2*? If anything the most recognizable canon version of the character so be the highest. i.e. Chief Engineer Torres should be 5* not some rando variant.
Simple solution to get new characters in and get rid of all these nonsense variants is to reskin(rename) all of these current variants to new crew personnel. That way nobody loses anything crew related as far as stats go. Then as I suggested so these variants can sort of exist is to have them be the iterations of them as they progress up in rank/star level. While taking into account their progression through their ST journey. Again, i.e. Maquis Belanna 1*,then fused = Injured Torres 2*, fused again = Chief Engineer Torres 3*, fused = Assimilated Torres??? 4*, final fuse = Liason Torres 5*.
This could be easily done with a lot of the crew start Ensign Picard 1*/Enterprise D Picard 2*, Loctus of Borg 3*, Enterprise E Picard 4*, and Admiral Picard 5*.
I know personally I would love it if the devs in these games actually put in some forthought and care into creation and maintenance of well beloved characters. Instead of just making a new character of a current one and be like hey I know remember that time Barclay was on the holodeck and he made a character of the crew and Picard was a musketeer.... yeah lets do that. NOT!!
Yeah been a long rant/comment/suggestion. But it would be nice if they would actual take some attention to details in areas like this and fix them. Obviously not all variants could be eliminated because are a legitimate variant that existed and as such are their own character. I.e. Will Riker & Thomas Riker, the same but not since there was physically 2 of them. Lets see how long I can go that the devs never even attempt to address this. Just like they never fixed the drop rates.... 5/5 chance... haha have fun warping multiple times and still not getting it.

Oh, and Verad Dax was an excellent suggestion.
+1 on this idea
How is it that we still do not have Yvonne Craig as the Orion Slave Girl, Marta in the game?!!!!
And she must be a 5-star Legendary!! ;-)
... or at least add her as a new Legendary, maybe Dancing Orion Vina.
