Notes
  • The former drones were members of the same Unimatrix as Seven. Eight years ago their sphere crashed on a planet and their link to the collective was severed. When they rejoined the collective, they were linked in a "sub-collective" together. Seven of Nine actually created the link when the drones' individuality threatened their survival. After the link is severed by the Doctor, the former drones have 2-4 weeks to live.
  • Two's name is Lansor.
  • Four's name is P'Chan; he was a member of Species 571.
  • Three's name is Marika Willkara. She was a Bajoran Starfleet engineer on the U.S.S. Excalibur NCC-26517. Being accustomed to life on a Federation starship, she decides to live out the remainder of her life on Voyager.
