Sonya Gomez is a newly assigned Ensign aboard the Enterprise whose bright enthusiasm and urgent curiosity define her early actions. She enters the ship socially — spilling hot chocolate on Captain Picard — then quickly anchors into duty beside Lieutenant Geordi La Forge in Ten‑Forward and Main Engineering. Sonya demonstrates hands‑on technical competence by attempting to reprogram fused shield circuits under crisis, yet she responds with visible trauma when eighteen shipmates die. Her eagerness to 'see it all' and need to prove herself push her toward both discovery and danger, making her a sympathetic, driven junior officer whose vulnerabilities and skill shape immediate plot stakes.
