Pazlar came to the station before a mapping mission to the Gamma Quadrant. Because the gravity on DS9 was too strong for her, she had to rely on either a wheelchair, or an exoskeletal network of flexible metal beams worn over her body to help her move around the station.

Pazlar started the treatment, but when she realized that she wouldn't be able to enjoy low-gravity environments any more, she decided to discontinue the process.

| Romulan Commander | James Doohan | The Survivor (TAS) |
| He commanded two D7-class battle cruisers in 2269. When he caught the Enterprise in the Romulan Neutral Zone, he noted that Captain James T. Kirk had a propensity for trespassing there and demanded the Enterprise's surrender. Kirk refused, claiming that the commander had lured the Enterprise into the Neutral Zone (a treaty violation) through the use of a Vendorian (also a treaty violation). After a brief battle, the commander withdrew his ships. (In his novelization of "The Survivor" in Star Trek Log Two, Alan Dean Foster named this character "Larus.")[15] | ||
| Romulan Commander | Mark Lenard | Balance of Terror (TOS) |
| He commanded the Praetor's flagship Bird-of-Prey in destructive attacks against Federation outposts 2, 3, 4 and 8 along the Romulan Neutral Zone in 2266. His mission was to test Starfleet defenses after more than a century of no contact, as well as the effectiveness of the Romulans' new cloaking system and plasma weapon. His was the first Romulan face ever "officially" seen by Starfleet officers. He proved to be a match for Captain James T. Kirk, even though he privately detested provoking the Federation and risking another war for the Romulan Star Empire. When Kirk finally defeated him, he refused any rescue attempt because it was not the "Romulan way." Instead, he self-destructed his own ship. | ||
| Romulan Commander | Joanne Linville | The Enterprise Incident (TOS) |
| She commanded three Romulan warships that captured the Enterprise after it "strayed" into Romulan space in 2269. She was also responsible for the loss of the "new and improved" cloaking device after Kirk and Spock "played" her. She ended up aboard the Enterprise as a prisoner/guest. Although not named in the script or the finished episode, she "whispered" her name to Spock during his time aboard her flagship. | ||
| Romulan Commander | NEM | |
| He stands before the Imperial Senate and quietly acquiesces, "Yes, sir", when Praetor Hiren refuses to pursue an alliance with Shinzon of Remus. (Noncanon: The movie novelization names his character "Bezor".) | ||
| Romulan Commander | NEM | |
| In the Imperial Senate, he ardently proposes an alliance between the Romulan military and Shinzon of Remus. He says that with their combined strength, not even the Federation would dare oppose the Star Empire.(Noncanon: The movie novelization names his character "Talik".) | ||
| Romulan Commander | Maurice Roëves | The Chase (TNG) |
| He commanded a Romulan Warbird that, while cloaked, followed the Enterprise-D and two Cardassian warships to a planet in the Vilmoran system. On the surface, he witnessed the holographic message from a humanoid who claimed that her race seeded the primordial oceans of many worlds with ancient DNA, thereby suggesting that humans, Klingons, Vulcans/Romulans and Cardassians are all related. Before leaving the planet, the Commander contacted Picard and admitted that, perhaps, their people were not so dissimilar after all.[16] | ||
| Romulan Commander | Lou Scheimer | The Practical Joker (TAS) |
| In 2269, he commanded three D7-class battle cruisers, which hid behind a Type-4 asteroid and ambushed the Enterprise as she approached. The commander claimed that the Enterprise had trespassed into Romulan territory and that he was forced to defend it. He also said that the invasion of Romulan territory was punishable by death. Later, when the Enterprise released a larger decoy balloon of itself, the commander pursued it at attack speed. After destroying it easily and learning that he'd been tricked, he was so furious that he followed the real Enterprise into Federation territory, hoping to destroy it. In so doing, he entered a strange energy field in space, and when his ships' instrumentation was rendered useless, he decided to vacate the field before his ships broke up. He ordered a course set for home. However, brief passage through the field caused his food synthesizers to malfunction. He and his crew were "knee deep in desserts" when last heard from.[17] | ||
| Romulan Commander | Peter Vogt | Tin Man (TNG) |
| He commanded the second Romulan Warbird that was sent to make first contact with Tin Man. However, after learning of the first Warbird's destruction by Tin Man, he warned Picard not to interfere with his new mission to destroy the "star creature". | ||
| Romulan Crewman | Norm Prescott | The Practical Joker (TAS) |
| He served on the Romulan flagship in 2269. When the Enterprise released a larger decoy balloon of itself, the crewman attempted radio contact, but received no reply. Later, when the flagship was pursuing the real Enterprise through a strange energy field in space, he noted that his instruments were useless and that he'd lost contact with the Federation starship. (In his novelization of "The Practical Joker" in Star Trek Log Six, Alan Dean Foster named this character "Varpa".) | ||

| They were an ancient race who destroyed themselves in a power struggle; six of them survived as energy spheres with telepahic imprints inside a containment field. A klingon ship captured the spheres thinking they were an energy weapon; the spheres instead infected the crew to reenact the power struggle and caused the Klingon Captain to self destruct his own ship after emerging from the wormhole outside Deep Space Nine. DS9 beams the dying klingon on board the Space Station which results in the staff of DS9 being infected by the spheres. The only person immune is Constable Odo; he tricks the infected Dr Bashir to making up a computer force field which would drive the spheres out of the others leaving Bashir and Odo in control of the Space station. In a cargo bay Kira, Dax and a Bajorian officer are about to execute Sisko and O'Brian; Odo and Bashir arrive at the last second; Odo activates the program which forces the spheres to exit the infected persons minds; Odo then opens the cargo door; without a containment field or minds to possess the spheres are sucked out into space and dissolved into nothingness. After everyone is back to normal, the only reminder for Sisko is a bizarre but workable Saltah'na clock which he has no memory of constructing. | ||

Picard and the USS Enterprise-E travel to Romulus to meet Shinzon and investigate his peace overture; Shinzon reveals his identity and origins to Picard. However, the peace overture is part of a plan to lure Picard to Romulus; the cloning process that created Shinzon is killing him, and he requires an infusion of Picard's DNA to stay alive. Simultaneously, Shinzon plans to use a thalaron radiation weapon aboard his ship, the Scimitar, to destroy all life on Earth. The Scimitar attacks and severely damages the Enterprise.

| Criminal creator of genetically engineered humans, ancestor of Noonien Soong | ||
| Juliana Soong | Fionnula Flanagan | Inheritance (TNG) |
| Deceased wife of Noonien Soong whose conscience was transferred at her death to an identical Soong-type android who, in turn, left Noonien, married Pran Tainer (thereafter taking the name Juliana Tainer) and took up residence on planet Altrea IV. | ||
| Noonien Soong | Brent Spiner | Brothers (TNG) recurring thereafter |
| Human cyberneticist who created Data, also played by Brent Spiner. Soong has created three complete androids in the known Star Trek universe, Data, Lore, and a Gynoid replica of his dead wife Juliana, which is technically superior to his previous models, as well as three prototype androids including B-4 (in the same design as Data and Lore). Early in Dr. Soong's career he was widely hailed as Earth's foremost robotic scientist, but he became a recluse after apparently failing to create a positronic brain and was thought to have been killed with other colonists on Omicron Theta. The scientist actually settled on Terlina III and summoned Data there to fit him with his final invention, an emotion chip. He inadvertently also summoned Data's brother, Lore, who attacked him after obtaining the chip. Soong survived, but was nearing death and elected to remain on Terlina rather than go aboard the Enterprise for medical care.
The one thing that kept defeating Dr Soong was how to make an workable emotion response software for his android "sons." Lore was activated with emotional responses but had to be disassembled when he began to turn evil; Data was made without emotions. Soong had planned to reassemble Lore to find out what went wrong but was forced to flee for his life. Data tried to make a Gynoid daughter named Lal using his own positronic brain circuity. However, like Lore, Lal had to be turned off because she suffered positronic brain collapse due to the sudden emotional responses. Ironically, after 25 years, Dr Soong perfected an emotion chip built for Data, but Lore stole it and became insane. The name "Noonien" was first used in the Star Trek: The Original Series 1st-season episode Space Seed as the middle name of the antagonist Khan Noonien Singh. Gene Roddenberry used the name because he had lost touch with an old friend (Noonien Wang or Noonien Singh[22]) and hoped that Wang might see the episode and contact him. Roddenberry was still trying to find Wang in the late-80s when Star Trek: The Next Generation began so he decided to use "Noonien" once again as the name of Data's creator.[23] | ||

His was a red unitard with turtleneck, with the long sleeves ending in "jagged" white with a single black stripe; a scaly-silver short-sleeve overshirt; silver boots; a black belt with gold buckle; and a white sash draped from the left shoulder across the chest.
