INTRODUCTION
“Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations,
to boldly go where no man has gone before.”
 – CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK
With those famous words, the 1960s Star Trek TV show
established its mission statement. Viewers joined Captain
Kirk and his crew for voyages aboard the Starship
Enterprise as they journeyed through space, the final
frontier, on a five-year mission of peaceful exploration –
except those voyages ended prematurely when the show
was cancelled after only three seasons.
Fans have wondered ever since what thrilling adventures
occurred during the final years of the five-year mission,
what events propelled the main characters from where we
left them at the end of the series to their new status quo at
the start of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Kirk gives up the
captain’s chair for the admiralty. Spock leaves Starfleet to
purge all remaining emotions through Kolinahr. The Enterprise
undergoes a major refit. The series’ abrupt end left the details
of those major developments to the imaginations of the fans.
That is, until 2019, when IDW launched Star Trek: Year Five, a
sprawling space epic that wrapped up the Enterprise’s five-
year odyssey and set the crew on a path toward their new
status quo as depicted on the big screen.
The comic series captures the vibrant action and adventure
of the classic television show while also offering new
insights into its iconic characters. The series revisits
some familiar settings and supporting characters, adding
new twists to familiar story elements. Year Five also
embraces the franchise’s tradition of offering pointed social
commentary relevant to today. And it’s Star Trek, of course,
so all these elements are wrapped up in a larger storyline
about alien interference, time travel, and galactic warfare.
This compilation examines some of Year Five’s most
intriguing factions, characters, alien species, and starships,
making its exciting storyline playable for the Star Trek
Adventures roleplaying game. This document provides full
non-player character statistics for classic characters who
appear in the comic series, such as Gary Seven, Isis, Harry
Mudd, and the Vulcan philosopher Surak. It also features
lifepath options for Tholians and Iotians, making those
species fully playable. It also includes lifepath options, NPC
statistics and starships for the water-breathing aliens called
the I’Qosa, a wildly imaginative species that first appeared
in the pages of Year Five.
4 CHAPTER
STAR TREK03ADVENTURES
This compilation attempts to capture these elements
as they’re depicted in the Year Five comic book series.
Many of these elements, such as the Tholians and
Harry Mudd, will be familiar to Star Trek fans who have
been watching reruns of the classic series for decades.
However, Year Five sometimes introduces surprising new
takes on many of these classic characters. Thus, some
of the material contained herein may seem unintuitive to
those who have watched the original show but have not
read Year Five. It’s not required to read Year Five to make
use of this material, but some familiarity with the comic
series might be useful to get a full sense of how these
elements fit together.
To illustrate this point, consider Gary Seven, the enigmatic
character introduced in the 1968 episode “Assignment:
Earth.” Gary Seven, along with his shape-changing partner
Isis, teamed up with the Enterprise crew to save the day.
The Year Five series reintroduces Gary Seven and Isis but
casts them as the central antagonists. The comic series
explores in great depth Gary Seven’s secret origins, and the
central story arc reveals the machinations of Gary Seven’s
extra-dimensional employer, Aegis. These developments
respect the events established on the television show while
taking the story in surprising new directions.
Now, gamemasters and players can do the same thing in
their Star Trek Adventures games. Introduce Aegis as
a mysterious new faction pulling the strings of galactic
history. Explore the seismic shifts in Federation politics
that awaited Kirk and his crew as they returned from deep
space. Make contact with the I’Qosa far below the waves
of their home planet.
The Enterprise’s mission may have reached its conclusion,
but yours is just beginning!

YEAR FIVE FACTIONS
“The Originalist movement will spread like a poison through the body of the Federation if we let it.”
ORIGINALISTS
Many changes awaited the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise
upon the completion of its five-year mission in 2270.
Starfleet had christened a new flagship, updated its duty
uniforms, and a new political movement was sweeping
the United Federation of Planets like wildfire. Members
of this new movement called themselves Originalists,
and they argued that the Federation had placed too
much emphasis in recent years on expansion and
exploration. The drive for expansion, the Originalists
claimed, had left the Federation’s founding worlds with
too few resources and diminished influence. New worlds
joining the Federation diluted the power of the founding
planets, according to the Originalist viewpoint. Part of
the movement’s platform called for an end to any further
five-year exploratory missions like the one just completed
by the Enterprise, and the movement’s opponents worried
that, if given the opportunity, the Originalists would
decimate Starfleet and scrap its mission of peaceful
exploration and scientific advancement.
The Originalist ideology spread rapidly and drew enough
adherents to its banner in just over a year that the party’s
candidate for Federation president stood a realistic chance
– AREEL SHAW
of winning election. Influential political figures on Vulcan,
Andor, Tellar, and Earth pledged their support for the
Originalist platform, and the movement even made inroads
among the highest ranks of Starfleet. Admiral Koraxi,
an avowed Originalist, orchestrated unethical medical
experiments carried out aboard the US.S. Asclepius and
gave Starfleet bypass codes to a Klingon ship in the hope
that the Klingons would kill James T. Kirk, whom Koraxi
identified as a threat to the Originalist cause.
Areel Shaw, a former officer in Starfleet’s judge advocate
general who rose to the office of attorney general,
recognized the Originalist movement as a cynical,
caustically nationalistic force that threatened many of
the Federation’s core ideals. After the plot on Kirk’s life
failed, Shaw tried to convince Kirk to seek the Federation
presidency to oppose the Originalist candidate. Kirk
refused to run for office, but he did agree to a fact-finding
mission to meet with the Originalist candidate, who turned
out to be none other than notorious con artist Harcourt
Fenton Mudd. Mudd utilized xenophobic rhetoric in his
appeals to the Originalist base, which won him a devoted
following in the movement. But Mudd’s true intentions
were to use his new position as a political darling to steal
YEAR FIVE TIE-IN SUPPLEMENT 5
classified information from Andorian computer systems.
Kirk and his allies derailed Mudd’s candidacy by exposing
his deception.
However, the Originalist movement remained a potent force
in Federation politics even after Mudd’s fall from grace. An
Andorian administrator named Renei vowed to take up the
movement’s mantle. Gary Seven recognized the Originalists’
potential to disrupt the Federation, which would be a helpful
outcome for his employer, and made contact with Renei to
urge her to run for Federation president.
Following Kirk’s refusal to run for office, Shaw announced
her own bid for the presidency. The election appeared
to put Shaw and Renei on a collision course with the
soul of the Federation hanging in the balance. As the
presidential race reached a fever pitch, a potential war
with the Tholians loomed large as a central issue in the
campaign. Renei, the Originalist candidate, blamed Kirk
and Starfleet for igniting the diplomatic crisis at the heart
of the Federation-Tholian conflict.
USING THE ORIGINALISTS
IN YOUR GAME
Characters who are allied with the Originalist movement
are most likely to belong to one of the founding species of
the United Federation of Planets. They view the Federation
as under attack from outsiders and at risk of losing its
identity as it admits more new member worlds. They also
view Starfleet with a deep sense of skepticism. Originalists
6 CHAPTER
STAR TREK03ADVENTURES
believe Starfleet’s exploratory mission is naïve and wasteful
at best, and downright dangerous at worst. Originalists
believe they are waging a war for the very identity of the
Federation, and they are willing to cross virtually any
moral and ethical boundary to gain control of the levers of
government power.
This, of course, flies in the face of the principles of
infinite diversity and peaceful exploration that lie at the
heart of Star Trek storytelling. That makes it unlikely that
player characters in a Starfleet game would be members
of the Originalist movement. However, gamemasters
might introduce supporting characters or villains who
believe in the Originalist cause. These characters
create opportunities for interesting conflicts that allow
the player characters to uphold the core tenets of the
Federation and Starfleet. The Originalist embrace of
the “might makes right” political philosophy creates
a compelling contrast to player characters who might
refuse to toss their ethical standards aside when they
become politically inconvenient.
Originalists, however, do not see themselves as villains.
Rather, Originalist characters are much more likely to
view themselves as righteous crusaders who are fighting
for a better future for the Federation. It is precisely this
unshakable belief in their own righteousness that makes
them compelling foils for Starfleet player characters,
particularly those who are committed and believe in the
value of exploring deep space.
AEGIS
Aegis is an immensely powerful extra-galactic entity that
has existed for millennia, subtly shaping the course of the
Galaxy according to its plan. Aegis’s ultimate goal appears
to be to guide entire galaxies to achieve perfection, though
Aegis’s definition of perfection differs greatly from that
of most humanoid species. Although possessing vast
intelligence, the true nature of Aegis is so far removed
from humanoid life that its motivations are largely
incomprehensible to most member species of the United
Federation of Planets.
Aegis gathers specimens from numerous intelligent
species throughout the Galaxy and relocates them to
controlled environments where they are raised to peak
physical and mental capabilities. Some of these specimens
receive the title of “Supervisor” and are sent on missions
throughout time and space. Supervisors are given access
to a range of advanced technology to aid them in their
missions, which can take them to virtually any place or
time in the blink of an eye.
Gary Seven is one such supervisor, a Human appointed
by Aegis to guide the development of humanity at various
critical junctures. Humanity’s role as a founding member
of the United Federation of Planets, and the Federation’s
resulting expansion, placed Gary Seven at the center of
Aegis’s machinations during the final year of the U.S.S.
Enterprise’s exploratory mission under the command of
James T. Kirk.
Although Gary Seven and the Enterprise crew once worked
together, Aegis appears to have determined that the
United Federation of Planets, guided by figures like Kirk,
will continue to expand, leading to conflict and war. Aegis
aims to prevent catastrophes such as the Battle of Wolf
359 and the Burn by allowing the Tholians to overrun the
Federation before those events can occur. The Tholians
cannot conceive of disunity, only peace, according to
Aegis’s estimation. Continued expansion of the Federation,
on the other hand, can lead only to more suffering and
destruction. Gary Seven, under orders from Aegis, plans
to “cauterize” the bleeding wound of the future by giving
advanced technology and weaponry to the Tholians. This
OPERATIONAL PRIORITY ALLOCATIONS
348

SA 407
scheme culminates in the construction of a massive Tholian
web that surrounds many of the Federation’s core worlds.
Aegis plans to use the web to freeze the Galaxy in a state
of permanent stasis, thus stopping the future and ushering
in an era of unending peace.
USING AEGIS IN YOUR GAME
Aegis might be an organic life-form, or it might be an
artificial intelligence. It may be composed of many
individuals or it might be a single consciousness. Aegis
might be some combination of all these possibilities. Many
important questions about Aegis are left unanswered, so
it’s left to the gamemaster to determine Aegis’s true nature
and origin. Exploring these many possibilities could form
the basis for multiple sessions or even an entire campaign.
Aegis has planted supervisors on many different worlds
across the Galaxy, from Earth to Vulcan to Cardassia
Prime. It’s possible player characters could run into various
supervisors throughout their travels. These supervisors
usually possess servos – pen-like pieces of technology
– with multiple capabilities. To get a sense of the special
abilities available to Aegis supervisors, see the NPC
statistics for Gary Seven on page 13.
Some supervisors partner with handlers assigned by
Aegis, as Gary Seven was partnered with Isis. These
handlers are nearly as mysterious as Aegis, and
gamemasters should feel free to create unique special
abilities and rules for handlers in their games. Just as with
Aegis, the true form and nature of these handlers is left to
gamemasters to determine.
All supervisors carry out the orders of Aegis, but few of
them truly understand Aegis’s full plan. In fact, individual
supervisors may feel conflicted or confused by the
missions they undertake. It’s possible that a supervisor
might act as an ally to the player characters at one point
during a campaign before becoming an antagonist later,
just as Gary Seven does between his appearance in
the television show and his appearance in the Year Five
comic series. This can give supervisors a mysterious,
unpredictable quality that can make them compelling
recurring characters.

IOTIANS
All eras of play post-2270
Iotians are a humanoid species native to the planet Sigma Iotia
II. Their physical features resemble those of Humans in most
respects. The starship Horizon made first contact with the Iotians
in 2168. At that time, the Iotians were a pre-warp society, but they
demonstrated great intelligence and a talent for imitation. The
Horizon’s crew left behind a number of books, including a volume
on the history of organized crime in Chicago. This book became a
formative document for Iotian society. The Iotian people modeled
their entire way of life on Chicago’s mobster underworld, and
endless gang wars erupted across the planet.
The U.S.S. Enterprise visited Sigma Iotia II in 2268, and several
members of the Enterprise crew became entangled in gangland
plots and power plays. Dr. Leonard McCoy mistakenly left his
communicator on the planet when the Enterprise departed
the system, unleashing an entirely new wave of cultural
contamination among the planet’s populace.
This time, the Iotians accessed data files contained in the
communicator to learn about Federation and Earth history,
and they reverse engineered the communicator’s transtator
technology. These experiments allowed the Iotians to make
enormous technological leaps. They began experiments with
warp technology, though they achieved only limited success.
The Iotians also remade their society yet again, this time using
Earth’s representational democracies as their guide. Just as the
Iotians did with mobster culture, they exaggerated certain key
elements of Earth’s representational democracies. For instance,
the Iotians held presidential elections every six weeks, leading to
discontinuity and dysfunction in the planet’s governance.
The Iotians thought of the Enterprise crew as founding fathers
of their democratic movement as a result of the Starfleet

officers’ role in introducing these political concepts to Iotian
society. Upon returning to Sigma Iotia II near the end of the
Enterprise’s five-year mission, Spock decided to run for
the Iotian presidency to defuse a sudden political crisis on
the planet. Upon winning the election, Spock immediately
abdicated the office after suggesting several reforms to
stabilize the Iotian government.

THOLIANS
All eras of play

Tholians are a nonhumanoid, crystalline-based species with

six thin legs and a dome-like head atop the torso. Tholians
evolved in a high-temperature, methane-rich atmosphere
and their life-support requirements differ widely from
those of most humanoid species. Accordingly, Tholian
characters must wear protective EV suits if they intend to
spend lengthy periods of time on a Federation starship or
space station. Exposure to cooler environments causes
their exoskeletons to crack and eventually shatter. Their
language, composed of high-frequency chirps and squeals,
can render the Universal Translator unreliable. Tholians
possess a high level of technology, and their use of Tholian
webs, or high-energy nets that can entrap vessels, are
formidable weapons.

The Tholians played a central role in Aegis’s plot to plunge

the Galaxy into permanent stasis in order to prevent further
expansion of the United Federation of Planets. The crew
of the U.S.S. Enterprise rescued a Tholian child from the
rubble of an abandoned outpost on the planet Lloyd Zeta-
9, setting off a volatile diplomatic crisis.

EXAMPLE VALUE: Protect our borders

X ATTRIBUTES: +1 Control, +1 Daring, +1 Fitness

X TRAIT: Tholian. Tholians possess crystalline

exoskeletons that grant them 2 resistance and allow
them to withstand vacuum for extended, though
not unlimited, periods of time. Tholian exoskeletons
also transmit radiation that can be modulated, or
sensed, by other Tholians. This can act as a form of
communication, similar to telepathy, though the full
extent of this ability varies by individual.

X TALENTS: The character receives access to the

following talents:

Crystalline Telepathy
REQUIREMENT: Tholian, or gamemaster’s permission.
Tholian exoskeletons can emit and detect specific forms
of radiation capable of transmitting messages over short
distances. This ability acts as a form of physical telepathy
among the Tholian species, allowing them to communicate
over limited distances.

Immune to Vacuum Radiation Burst

REQUIREMENT: Tholian.
Some Tholians can spend extended periods of time
exposed to vacuum without suffering any ill effects,
allowing them, for instance, to scale the strands of Tholian
webs without the protection of EV suits. This immunity
usually only lasts a single scene before vacuum starts
causing complications or injuries.
REQUIREMENT: Tholian.
Some Tholians can channel radiation into intense bursts
that act as a ranged weapon in combat (3A, Vicious 1
damage effect).
NAMES
Tholian names are usually unpronounceable by non-Tholians.

This effect lasts as long as he likes, though he cannot
attempt tasks while invisible.
X Stun suggestion: If Gary Seven successfully stuns a
target with his servo, he can choose to leave the target
in a trance-like state that leaves them susceptible to
suggestion. In these cases, Gary Seven can give short
and simple suggestions to his target, and the target
must try to comply. Example suggestions could be to
drop a weapon or divulge sensitive information, but the
suggestions cannot result in direct physical harm to the
target. This trance-like state ends at the conclusion of
the scene.
X Beta 5 Computer Access: While in possession of his
servo, Gary Seven can access the voluminous data
banks of the Beta 5 Computer. Any time Gary Seven
attempts a task using Reason to ascertain information
related to the workings of the universe, and he has
possession of his servo, he gains one automatic success.

Gary Seven can spend 2 Momentum to instantaneously
transport anywhere he chooses.
Gamemaster Note: The servo provided to Gary Seven by
Aegis grants him remarkable abilities as detailed above.
Gary Seven cannot activate these abilities if he does not
have possession of his servo. Characters that do not have
the Aegis Supervisor trait cannot operate the servo.
