Chief Engineer

The Vissian engineer was married to Calla. The two ultimately decided they would have a baby, and after a long wait, they were finally given a cogenitor with which to breed with.

In 2153, the Vissian engineer was among the members of the delegation which were welcomed aboard Enterprise as a part of a cultural exchange. As part of the exchange, he gave Commander Tucker, the chief engineer of the Enterprise, a tour of the Vissians' engine room, but Tucker was particularly curious about the engineer's cogenitor.

When Tucker lied about his position aboard the Vissian ship in order to teach their cogenitor how to read and think for itself, the Vissian engineer refused to allow Tucker back aboard the Vissians' ship. The issue was further complicated when the cogenitor requested sanctuary aboard Enterprise. The Vissian engineer and his wife demanded that the cogenitor be returned, believing that the Enterprise crew did not respect their culture. Their demands were ultimately met, but the cogenitor commited suicide soon after the Vissians left Enterprise, eliminating the Vissian couples' chances of having a child in the near future.

The Chief Engineer was played by actor F.J. Rio.

Cogenitor

A Cogenitor.

In 2153, Commander Trip Tucker met a cogenitor belonging to a Vissian ship's chief engineer and his wife, Calla, who were a part of a delegation visiting the starship Enterprise. Tucker pitied the way in which the cogenitor was being treated, believing it should have the same equal rights as others. After discovering from Phlox that the cogenitor had the same learning capabilities as the other Vissian genders, Trip took it upon himself to secretly teach the cogenitor how to read and to educate the it about its rights as an individual. Although initially reluctant, the cogenitor ultimately embraced these new ideas. So pleased was it to have been given the chance to learn for itself, the cogenitor decided to adapt Trip's real name, Charles, as its own. Trip would later take "Charles" on a tour of the Enterprise, and would allow it to watch a movie.

However, the Vissians soon learned of this and denied Trip of having any further access to their ship, and hence, the cogenitor. However, "Charles" was able to return to Enterprise, where it formally requested asylum. After a stand-off with the cogenitor's "owners", Captain Archer was unable to grant Charles's request as it would mean interfering in Vissian culture, thereby irrepairably damaging future relations between the two races. With no other options, the cogenitor was forced to return to its own ship.

Unfortunately, after being returned, the cogenitor could not stand returning to its previous life after what it had just seen. Soon after the Vissians departed Enterprise, the cogenitor commited suicide. (ENT: "Cogenitor")

The Cogenitor was played by Becky Wahlstrom.
