SPECIES: Human Male
O'Herlihy was a Starfleet ensign
serving on the USS Enterprise. O'Herlihy was one of
three tactical officers who were part of the landing
party that beamed down to the observation post on
Cestus III in 2267. Arriving, they discovered that
the colony had been destroyed. Shortly after their
arrival, the landing party came under attack from
Gorn soldiers. O'Herlihy was killed by disruptor
fire, seconds after discovering the position of the
attackers. |

SPECIES: Human Male
The Enterprise visited Cestus III in
response to a faked invitation from Commodore Travers. The
message, actually a Gorn ruse, asked that Kirk bring his senior
tactical officers down for a conference and dinner. The landing
party was ambushed; Kelowitz was the only surviving tactical
officer. |

COMMANDER LANG |
PLAYED BY:
James Farley
SPECIES: Human Male
Lieutenant Commander Lang was a
Starfleet officer assigned to the USS Enterprise
under Captain James T. Kirk. Lang was one of three
tactical officers who beamed to the Earth
observation post on Cestus III in 2267. Arriving,
they discovered the colony had been destroyed by the
Gorn, a previously unknown species. Captain Kirk
ordered Lang to deploy on the landing party's flank,
presumably to scout likely locations of the
attackers. Shortly after this, Lang was killed. Of
the three tactical officers, only Kelowitz survived
this attack. |

SPECIES: Metron Female
When Kirk was victorious, but
refused to kill the Gorn, the Metron male appeared
and was surprised by Kirk's compassion, believing
humans to be a violent race. He freed both Kirk and
the Gorn and their ships. He commented that in a
thousand years humans would be advanced enough for
the Metrons to make contact with them.

SPECIES: Gorn Male
The Gorn Captain's ability to
mimic Starfleet communications fooled his new
opponent, Captain James T. Kirk. Expecting a warm
welcome from the Cestus III base commander,
Commodore Travers, Kirk's landing party beamed into
an ambush, surrounded by Gorn ground forces and
pelted by disruptor artillery fire. Simultaneously,
the Gorn starship quartered-in on the Enterprise
while she was locked in orbit. The ships were evenly
matched for firepower and deflector screens. Unable
to maneuver the Enterprise from her position,
Lieutenant Hikaru Sulu was forced to break orbit,
temporarily stranding the landing party. |
