Summary
I love a lot ofStar Trekcharacters , but to me , Seven of Nine ( Jeri Ryan ) is the most impressive character in the franchise . My compulsion withStar Trek : Voyagerbegan at an early age after I had already watchedStar Trek : The Original SeriesandStar Trek : The Next Generation . While I loved premature installments , Voyager ’s form of characterscaptivated me like no other , in particular the show ’s strong female representationin Captain Janeway ( Kate Mulgrew ) , B’Elanna Torres ( Roxann Dawson ) , and afterward , Seven of Nine .
Although she became one of the most fascinating fictitious character in anyStar Trekmovie or TV show , Seven ’s tenure in the franchise started humbly enough . As a late accession toVoyager ’s crew , Seven was created for the show to replace Kes ( Jennifer Lien ) , who leftVoyagerat the root of season 4due to diminishing popularity . Being brought on halfway throughVoyager ’s rivulet was just one of the many hurdles Seven had to get the best to accomplish her current storey of popularity , hurdling she ended up make beautifully .
Star Trek ’s timeline spans a thousand year of Starfleet and the United Federation of Planets , with alternative world and sentence travel galore .
Seven Of Nine Had To Overcome A Lot To Achieve Her Current Star Trek Popularity
Seven didn’t start out with a lot of advantages on Star Trek: Voyager
Aside from her belated arrival status , Seven of Nine was give few advantages as a type upon her introduction . For one thing , it was clear from the starting that Seven was bestow on to add extra sex prayer toVoyager . This became evident after many of her Borg components had been removed , and she began garment in skin - tight catsuits for the rest of the serial publication . While I completely defend female lineament embrace their sexuality , it became perplexing why Seven was n’t permitted to fatigue a Starfleet uniform like the quietus ofVoyager ’s crewat a sealed item in the show .
Despite the sympathetic aspects of her plot line , Seven still needed to get out from under the cloud of suspicion that can follow a Borg or former Borg type .
One other major aspect of Seven ’s character was also ostensively a bang against her from the get-go . Seven was a Borg drone when she first came onboardVoyager , and pretend as something of an antagonistin her first two episode on the show . The Borg are one ofStar Trek ’s most far-famed villains , so despite the benevolent aspects of her storyline , Seven still needed to get out from under the cloud of suspicion that can follow a Borg or former Borg fictitious character .
Seven’s Story Arc Is Amazing Considering Where She Started
Seven has achieved a lot during her time in the franchise
However , Seven surpass all usual expectations for a member of a villainous race being used for her looks . When I think about what Jeri Ryan was likely given to lick with , it astound me thata reference with so many disadvantages could grow to become one of the most complex , nuanced , and interesting characters thatStar Trekhas ever created . Seven broke the mold in terms of how she would be defined , not by how she looked , or her past , but instead by how she begin to rediscover herself and cope with the trauma of her fourth dimension with the Borg .
In my opinion , Seven is the best exploration of traumatheStar Trekfranchisehas ever depict , and the curious depiction of the psychological effects of being assimilated . Seven came to define what it means to be " ex - Borg " , not just inVoyagerbut inStar Trek : Picardas well . Seven ’s journeying back to humanity is one of the most interesting parts ofVoyager ’s later seasons , and her time onPicardenhanced her character reference without playing too intemperately into nostalgia . It is a testament to Jeri Ryan and Seven ’s writers that they were willing to take her to such narrative summit .
Seven Of Nine’s Star Trek Future Is Still Bright After Picard Season 3
Picard season 3 gave Seven endless opportunities to return
Despite no longer being in any active projects , I ca n’t wait to see where Seven goes next afterPicardseason 3.Picard ’s concluding season provided perhaps the braggart role update to Seven since her return , showing her being advance to Captain and contract bidding of the new USS Enterprise - G. Watching Seven ’s oldVoyagerfriendTuvok ( Tim Russ)bestow the captaincy upon her inPicard ’s finale was a peculiarly emotional moment for me , andthe finale set up up endless possibilities for Seven to give as the newest character to captain a ship named Enterprise .
Commander Raffi Musiker ( Michelle Hurd ) became Seven ’s First Officer at the destruction of Picard , setting up an interesting novel moral force between the former dyad .
Although the proposedStar Trek : Legacyhas begun to count less and less potential , I find it hard to think thatStar Trekwill completely waste the potential that was created by Seven ’s furtherance . Her time as Captain of the Enterprise - G does n’t only have her presence get going for it , but also the extend storylines of other popularPicardcharacters , like Sidney La Forge ( Ashlei Sharpe Chestnut ) or Jack Crusher ( Ed Speleers ) . If and when theStar Trekfranchise decides to bring Seven of Nine back in the hereafter , I will be eagerly anticipate tidings of her return .
