Character

Warren

experienced physically vulnerable methodical duty-driven

Warren is an older human field scientist stationed at a holographic duck-blind observation outpost. She works hands-on with the outpost reactor and sustains catastrophic electrical and radiation injuries when the unit fails. The Enterprise medical team beams her to Sickbay, where clinicians battle burns, anti-radiation effects, and escalating seizures; she remains critically ill and ultimately succumbs despite resuscitation attempts. Warren’s arc ties her professional competence and frontline duties to the episode’s medical and Prime Directive crises, and she is closely linked to Barron, Beverly, and Picard during her treatment.
