SPECIES: Unknown Male
Trelane was a puckish, childlike
alien introduced to several USS Enterprise
crewmembers in 2267. That year, the Enterprise was
en route to the Beta VI colony to deliver supplies,
when it encountered a previously unknown planet.
This planet, Gothos, was the home (playplace,
really) of the powerful alien Trelane. |

SPECIES: Human Male
Trelane recognized Jaeger's name's
national origin, gave a smart salute and spoke to him in German,
saying "Ein Deutsch Soldat, nein? Ein, zwei, drei, vier, gehen
wir mit dem Schießgewehr!", while miming a military march. In
response to Trelane's question ("A German soldier, no?"), Jaeger
replied that his specialty was as a scientist, not as a military
man. |

SPECIES: Human Male
DeSalle was one of three people
who beamed down to the planet Gothos in search of
Captain Kirk and Lieutenant Sulu, who had been
abducted by the powerful alien Trelane. Expecting to
arrive in an inhospitable climate, this landing
party was surprised to discover an oasis of
Earth-like conditions. When communications failed,
DeSalle attempted to contact the ship using a laser
beacon, but this method also failed. DeSalle later
attempted to shoot Trelane with his phaser, an act
that resulted in his paralysis, and the theft of his
weapon by Trelane, who delightedly experimented with
it, disintegrating several of his bizarre trophies
before returning the weapon. |

SPECIES: Human Female
Yeoman Teresa Ross was among the
crewmen Trelane had transported to the planet of
Gothos for his own amusement, and he took a
particular interest in her. He even transformed her
uniform into a floor-length gown and made her his
dancing partner.
All the fuss over Ross gave Kirk the opportunity to
take advantage of Trelane, enabling the Enterprise
crew to eventually escape. |
