Character
Kes
Star Trek·USS Voyager·Star Trek character
Kes is a main character in the first three seasons of Star Trek: Voyager, a member of the short-lived, telepathically gifted Ocampa species from the Delta Quadrant. Rescued from the Kazon by the Talaxian Neelix, with whom she fell in love, she joined the crew of the USS Voyager after the ship was stranded far from home.
Aboard Voyager, Kes established the ship's airponics bay and trained as a medical assistant under The Doctor, becoming a valued field medic. Over time she began to manifest the powerful mental abilities her people had long since lost, and she ultimately departed the ship to explore the further evolution of those powers.
