Featured Crew articles spotlight familiar characters not currently covered by official stats. Each article will typically feature a Major NPC version of the character, as well as a playable Main Character version (Core Rulebook compliant) that you can hand out to a player for immediate play (such as for a demo or convention game).
Doctor Selar (Lieutenant) only appeared onscreen in one episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation: “The Schizoid Man“. The rest of the time she is only heard being paged or in dialogue, as an unseen presence aboard the Enterprise-D. This means there’s little to work with. However, she is a logical choice for a player who wants to play a medical officer and a Vulcan, so here is my take on Selar. You can also promote her to Chief Medical Officer aboard another ship.
In the novels, comics, and short stories, she had some expertise in cybernetics. Her husband Voltak died in 2371 during pon farr. She was assigned to the USS Excalibur in 2373 as Chief Medical Officer, and a series of unfortunate events later led to her death. But you can ignore all that for your own version of Selar. The only thing I’m taking from that is her expertise in cybernetics.
The PC version of Selar below may be used as an NPC version.
