Williams, Commander Holly Beth

  Starfleet officer assigned to the command offices on Vulcan. Friendly, casual, insists on being called “H.B.,” and won’t answer to “Holly.” Speaks with a slow drawl, has a round face, seen-it-all eyes, and short brown hair. Provided clandestine, unofficial help to Soleta in locating the released prisoner Rajari.

  Wynants, Medical Technician Patty

  Member of Dr. Kosa’s staff aboard the U.S.S. Exeter. Twin sister of Sali Wynants, who serves aboard the Exeter in the same capacity. The twins are known to speak in sync with one another, and to sometimes finish each other’s sentences.

  Wynants, Medical Technician Sali

  Member of Dr. Kosa’s staff aboard the U.S.S. Exeter. Twin sister of Patty Wynants, who serves aboard the Exeter in the same capacity. The twins are known to speak in sync with one another, and to sometimes finish each other’s sentences.

  ’Xana

  Woman to whom Morgan Primus addressed a personal letter. Although the exact identity of the addressee is unclear, there is some evidence to suggest the letter was intended for Lwaxana Troi of Betazed.

  Xant

  Deity of the Redeemers of Tulaan IV, who refer to Him as “He Who Had Gone On” and “He Who Would Return.” Redeemer mythology holds that Xant passed through the Beyond Gate into another plane of existence, and that He will return through the Beyond Gate at the time of the Second Coming of Xant.

  Xantism

  The religion of the Redeemers, who worship the “great god Xant.”

  Xenex

  A Class-M world located near the border of the Thallonian Empire in Sector 221-G. It is the homeworld of the Xenexians, and of Starfleet Captain Mackenzie Calhoun, a.k.a. M’k’n’zy of Calhoun, who in his youth led a revolt that ended the 300-year-long occupation and oppression of Xenex by the Danteri.

  Xenexians

  Indigenous inhabitants of the planet Xenex.

  Xyon

  The half-Vulcan, half-Hermat offspring of Burgoyne 172 and Dr. Selar. Named in honor of Xyon of Calhoun.

  Although predominantly Vulcan in appearance, Xyon displayed such Hermat traits as early maturation of physical skills and a mode of locomotion that involves traveling on all fours rather than fully upright.

  Xyon of Calhoun

  Son of M’k’n’zy and Catrina of Calhoun. Captain of the Lyla. Born during the Xenexian uprising against the Danteri. Possesses low-level, instinctual psionic abilities that proved sufficient to fool the Redeemer Overlord into believing Xyon was dead. Later faked his own death during the Excalibur’s rescue of Tulaan IV from the Black Mass, by slipping away during a crisis using his ship’s cloaking device.

  Yakaba

  A harsh planet with large swaths of barren terrain and desert. Its city communities tend to be fairly insular in nature. Communication and contact between localities is discouraged.

  Yakaban

  Humanoid species indigenous to Yakaba. Typically pale in complexion.

  Yates, Ensign

  An engineering crewman, working under Chief Engineer Burgoyne 172, aboard the U.S.S. Excalibur.

  Yorick

  Fictional character: the late lamented court jester of Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet.

  Yoz, Thallonian Chancellor

  A leader of Thallonia who attempted to apprehend Soleta for trespassing. Soleta managed to embarrass Yoz while she resisted arrest, eventually trapping him under his own mount. Yoz later helped the people of Thallonia overthrow the ruling class, including High Lord Si Cwan and his family.

  Ysonte

  Technologically inferior world, from which such priceless treasures as centuries-old, elaborately carved gems and statues were stolen by Barspens leaders, who presented them to the Barspens people as “sacred artifacts.”

  Ysontians

  Native inhabitants of Ysonte. Little technology, not much in the way of weaponry. Excellent artisans and sculptors. They hired Xyon of Calhoun to recover their stolen artifacts from the Barspens.

  Yukka Chips

  Small, greenish, curved waferlike Thallonian delicacy.

  Zanka

  Litenite female, the beautiful wife of Adulux. She was abducted for several days, or possibly longer, by Q. After her rescue from captivity by Adulux, Mark McHenry and Zak Kebron—upon whom she developed an unrequited crush—she soon left Adulux for another man.

  Zantos

  This world produces what is regarded as the best ale in the quadrant, better even than Romulan Ale and twice as difficult to obtain. A Starfleet survey team was captured on Zantos by local inhabitants, and the leader was subjected to harsh punitive measures. Allegedly, Starfleet Captain Mackenzie Calhoun snuck onto the planet’s surface and absconded with a case of Zantos Ale, with the Zantosian fleet in hot pursuit.

  Zina

  An Orion slave-girl who belonged to an Orion trader named Krassus. She originally was meant to be sold by Krassus to a buyer named Barsamis, but Krassus reneged on the deal and murdered Barsamis when he filed a protest. Krassus later lost Zina to Mackenzie Calhoun in a game of Six-Card Warhoon, but the loss turned out to be a ruse to allow Zina to distract Calhoun with her feminine charms while Krassus attempted to stab Calhoun from behind. Their plan failed. Miserably.

  Zondar

  Planet wracked by a bloody civil war between the Unglza and Eenza that was halted by the Thallonians, who were under the command of a distant ancestor of Lord Si Cwan. The Thallonian fleet ended the conflict by destroying the eastern seaboard of a major Zondarian continent, killing 500,000.

  Zondarians

  Natives of Zondar. They have leathery skin that glistens, making it appear always wet. They are all bald, devoid of body hair, and have clear eyelids that make clicking sounds when they blink. They are highly insular by nature and resentful of outsiders; their social structure is based around clans. They possess limited transporter technology that can beam materials to and from fixed transmat pads, but they lack the capture-and-receive technology possessed by the Federation and other, more advanced major Alpha Quadrant species.
