Characters
- Canon characters listed below are linked to the main article about them. Non-canon characters are not linked, but those that recurred, appearing or being mentioned in more than one story, are defined further in DC TOS volume 1 characters.
Regular and recurring characters
- James T. Kirk
- USS Enterprise-A commanding officer, a Starfleet captain.
- Spock
- Vulcan Half-Vulcan Starfleet captain serving as Enterprise-A exec and science officer.
- Leonard McCoy
- Enterprise-A CMO, a Starfleet commander.

- Starfleet captain serving as Enterprise-A chief engineer.

- Enterprise-A security chief, a Starfleet commander.
- Uhura
- Enterprise-A communications officer, a Starfleet commander. Uhura does not have any lines in this issue, but can be seen seated on the bridge in a couple of panels.
- Hikaru Sulu
- Enterprise-A helmsman and executive officer, a Starfleet commander. Sulu is left in command while the landing party visits Gamma Trianguli VI. It seems unusual that Sulu would consider himself to be executive officer in light of the fact that ranking officer Captain Scott was still aboard while Captains Kirk and Spock were on the surface, although it is possible he was using the term in a more general sense, referring to an officer commanding the bridge as part of his regular duties.
Other characters
- Akuta

- Makora
- Leader of the main population of Vaalians when the landing party arrived in the 2280s. Makora had tried to remember and emulate the ways of the original Federation landing team in order to please them that their will was being done on the planet.
