J'naii Crew Members (Rescued by Riker)

unresponsive inert vulnerable
J'naii crew members who staff starships and shuttles of their genderless species, handling operational support and exploration missions that contact Federation vessels. These two individuals are linked to Soren through shared J'naii heritage and shipboard roles. Riker encounters them during a rescue operation after they endure extreme conditions (e.g., hazardous spatial phenomena or transporter mishaps), revealing their physical vulnerabilities. Their unconscious condition requires medical intervention from Starfleet doctors like Beverly Crusher. Duty to J'naii command drives their service, though no active traits surface beyond their role in fostering diplomatic ties with the Federation.
