Fer Nesselar: A joined Zhr from the neutral planet Iroshar. Like most Zhrs, Fer's host and symbiont are synchronized and present a single personality. Fer's antennae are artificially implanted; the symbiont uses them to expand its sensory range, and the goggles help reduce visual overload.
Fer is the president of a 5-person corporation, all of whom live on the Paramaribo after being hired by Shelly to improve and maintain the impulse engines. Fer cares deeply about her employees but doesn't trust other people.

Ens. Jeremy Amundson: A full-blooded Vulcan raised by an adoptive Human family on Earth. Jeremy is comfortable around Humans; he has a flat affect but smiles often. Wearing the combadge bothered him, so he was given permission to carry a communicator in his pocket instead.
Jeremy helps build backup systems for the ship. His proudest accomplishment is a holodeck program that creates an additional mess hall, complete with replicated food.

Lt. C.A. Kelper: Kelper, the ship's head doctor, is a genetically engineered Human-reptilian hybrid, created in violation of Earth law. Since his unusual DNA led to many health problems, he had to become very familiar with his own biology. On the Paramaribo, he often uses the Emergency Medical Hologram as a consultant.

Lt. Mojisola Okowe: Mojisola is Jeremy's immediate superior and a member of the nighttime bridge crew. She has a happy-go-lucky demeanor. She's also a devout Protestant and likes to quote gospel passages. Her husband Mark isn't in Starfleet, but lives on the ship with her.
