Characters who got erased from the timeline

[WarpTenLizard]

I've done this topic before. But as the franchise continues, new information becomes available. So I'm doing it again.

I'm looking for characters who we met in alternate-timeline stories, and who effectively ended up getting erased from existence when the timeline was changed. So we're not looking at alternate universes, like in "Parallels." We're sticking to time-travel stories, and maybe premonitions.

Ideally, I'd like to get at least one character from each "Star Trek" series, or at least from the different eras we've seen onscreen.

I already have:

• Yedrin Dax and the Gaia colony (DS9, "Children of Time")
• Linnis and Andrew Kim (VOY, "Before and After")
• Lorien, Karyn Archer, etc (ENT, "E2")

I've rejected:

• Gwyn. She was at risk of this in Season 2 of "Prodigy," but she got better.
• Lursa's son (doing the math, he was already born when she died in "Generations")
• Geordie and Leah's kids from TNG's "All Good Things." ("Star Trek: Picard" reveals that Alandra and Sidney still exist, and gives us no reason to think Bret doesn't as well)
• Thelin (TAS, "Yesteryear"). He's old enough to have already been born when the timelines diverge. And if he had any children at risk of being erased, he would not have supported changing the timeline back so readily.
• Sabrina Wildman (VOY, "Endgame") Until we're told otherwise, there's no reason to think Naomi didn't still have Sabrina. And I already have two characters from "Voyager" anyway.
• Melanie (DS9, "The Visitor") No reason to think she still wasn't born, and I already have characters from DS9.

Undecided:

• Seven's husband from the Confederation timeline (PIC, Season 2). We've never seen him outside this timeline, and likely never will. Still, given that everyone else exists in both timelines (against all odds), there's no reason he shouldn't too. He's the only example from "Picard" that I can think of though.
• The unfortunate bastards who got eaten by the time monsters in "Prodigy" Season 2. All of that happened after, and because, our so-called "heroes" buggered the timeline. After they set the timeline right again, it's unclear if the erased people were restored. But I may be forgetting something.

In short, I have DS9, "Voyager" and "Enterprise" covered. I'd like to get some characters from some of the other series (TOS, TAS, TNG, DISCO, SNW, PIC, LD, PROD). I'd particularly like to get someone from the TOS era, and from the "Picard" or later era.

Some possible timelines I'm considering, but haven't rewatched the episodes for a while:

• The possible futures shown in the Time Crystals (DISCO)
• "Face the Strange" (DISCO)
• "Yesterday's Enterprise" (TNG)
• "All Good Things" (TNG)
• "Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow" (SNW)
• The Confederation timeline (PIC)
• The frankly unnecessary time mumbo-jumbo from "Prodigy"
• Did "Lower Decks" ever do time travel?

Any input is much appreciated.

How about feral Molly O'Brien? She co-existed briefly with lost Molly and helped her go back to her own time before she was there for too long, erasing herself in the process.

Edit:What about the man who accidentally killed himself with McCoy's phaser?

Sorry, I appreciate the response. But I'm not looking for alternate versions of characters who still continue to exist. If we include ferral-Molly, then we might as well also include Admiral Janeway from "Endgame," renegade Chakotay and Kim from "Timeless," Hugh Heffner Data from "All Good Things," and every other alternate future version of every character shown onscreen.

I had to look up that other one. I guess I haven't seen "City on the Edge of Forever" in a while. I don't remember that part at all! In any case, that guy wouldn't have been erased from history; he just died sooner than he was supposed to. Although if he was supposed to have sired any kids later on, then they'd be candidates.

I was hoping Lorien would show up again. Just by his appearance, you'd know Trip and T'pol got their happy ever after.

 

[maneth]

I'd really like to see Kes and Tom Paris's kids (and grandkids) again.

 

[publiusr]

IDW had a graphic novel based on “City” with a WWI vet drawn that favored Harlan
The character met with an early demise…

 

[Finn]

Naomi's daughter. She likely doesn't exist after the events of Endgame.

Naomi's daughter. She likely doesn't exist after the events of Endgame.

In real life I'd agree. But in "Star Trek" 90% of the same people somehow still manage to be born in multiple universes and timelines where the divergence goes back centuries. So until Naomi returns onscreen and reveals she has no children, or has kids and clearly none of them are Sabrina, we can't rule her out.

In any case, I've already got a couple characters for "Voyager."

 

[Laura Cynthia Chambers]

Eric-Christopher and Shannara, children of Worf and Troi, still exist in another reality.

 

[fireproof78]

Thelin because Andorians, especially TOS Andorians, need more appearances.

You're missing TOS and TNG. Aside from what you've rejected, nothing else comes to mind.

I know, and that's what's irking me.

TNG not so much, since I've still hit the 24th Century with DS9 and VOY. But if I could get someone from the TOS era, or the new-Treks, that would rock.

I'll settle for characters from non-canon sources like books or games, who for sure don't exist in canon by now. I'm thinking of treating one of the early book-versions of Pike's "Number One" as someone who was erased via time-f*ckery. (This is all for a fanfic I'm working on.)

Understandable, his bit was short. Homeless middle aged guy who managed a precarious living by stealing milk off porches. Not a great candidate for fatherhood.

Naked Time was only 3 days back to the past. Not long enough to affect anything and nothing changed in the timeline.

City on the Edge of Forever had McCoy wipe out everyone, but that was reset. Nobody was erased due to the reset (instead they were erased when McCoy saved Edith).

All Our Yesterdays did not reset anything. However, Vonda McIntyre (I think) wrote a novel where Spock fathered a child with Zaeabeth.

Assignment Earth wasn't long enough to affect anything. The changes Gary Seven made aligned with Starfleet and Federation records.

Tomorrow is Yesterday reset the alterations. Shaun Jeffrey Christopher was born.

The going theory is that this character, called Trooper, was morphed into the character Rodent, that accidentally phasered himself. Trooper was a better character, to be honest.

I would say Lorian but I also don't want him to reappear again, just because I like how that story ended with it ambiguous. I would more like a short story or several about what happened over those hundred years or more. The design of his ship is one of my favourites in all Trek, with the messed up deflector dish.

I actually had to question my inclusion of Lorien after discovering that he still gets born in the book-verse. (I know books aren't canon, but with how widely despised the ENT finale is, they might retcon that any day.)

Tessa Omond, from “Timeless”.

1990s Khan

1990s Khan still technically exists in the Kelvinverse, and would not be affected by the timesliding in SNW. As the Kelvinverse hasn't been erased.

Eric-Christopher and Shannara, children of Worf and Troi, still exist in another reality.

Worf has a lot of descendants that have been erased from the timeline

In addition to Eric-Christopher and Shannara with Troi, Brota and possibly Lisa with Dax. Parell and Torvin, who’s matrilineage is not revealed. And possibly K’mtar too, after Alexander changed the timeline.
