As the counselor assigned to the USS Secondprize, Webber was always ready with a shoulder to cry on or a bone-shattering bear hug. Webber was able to successfully open negotiations between the Kynaxins and the Oloni, and save the life of Commander Travis Dillon, when she gained the respect of the violent Oloni by facing the feared Stuyluppo. The Stuyluppo, whose howling the Oloni feared so greatly, turned out to be an injured, space-dwelling life form named Jonil who had crashed on the moon of Kynax where the Oloni lived. (Claire Webber: The Hugging Hunter [TRK]) Webber also stepped in to help learn the identity of the unfortunate woman Dillon had taken a liking to on the Secondprize and to console her once her identity was revealed. (Reason to Panic [TRK])
On Stardate 49805, Counselor Webber was left in command of the Secondprize while Captain Alexander Rydell, Dillon, and Lieutenant Commander Jaroch beamed down to the Joegonot homeworld of Ugilious. She used this opportunity to make the ship "happier" by ordering bunnies painted in the corridors and instituting and hourly hug time. Webber relinquished command to Lieutenant Lisa Beck when she realized that the approaching Joegonot ship had pretty much ruined her chances of a happy ship. After this event, Rydell decided never to leave Webber in command again. (Star Traks 1 [TRK])
After Commander Baird was struck with amnesia on Stardate 49830, Webber attempted to retrain him to be friendlier. On the suggestion of Baird's girlfriend, Emily Sullivan, this training was expanded to totally reform Baird into the boyfriend Sullivan had always wanted. For her part in this, Webber was a victim of the same joke Baird pulled on Sullivan and Lisa Beck when he regained his memory. (Star Traks 3 [TRK]) Approximately two years later, Jaroch sought Webber's help in dealing with an argument occurring between his past lives. With her assistance, he was able to temporarily silence the voices. (Family Counseling [TRK]) However, by Stardate 51543, the situation had worsened to the point that Jaroch's health was in danger. Webber, along with Dr. Elizabeth Aldridge, accompanied Jaroch back to Yyns to participate in his Seratch. Jaroch asked Webber to serve as his Tersu during this ceremony. He also later confided in her about his feelings for Patricia Hawkins, noting that he had come to value his relationship with Webber. (Star Traks 6 [TRK])
On Stardate 52843, Webber and Monica Vaughn were accidentally left behind when the Secondprize rushed away from Starbase 163. They were forced to use a shuttle to meet up with the USS Ontario, which would take them back to the Secondprize. While Vaughn and Webber were popular with the Ontario's crew, the ship's captain was less than happy to have officers from the Secondprize aboard. His feelings didn't improve when the Ontario became ensnared in a subspace distortion field and was rescued by the Secondprize. (The Star Traks Reunion Special [TRK])
Webber's concern over Jaroch's unrequited feelings for Hawkins led her to approach Jaroch in a far less official capacity on Stardate 52785. This led to a tenth month involvement between the pair that, while never quite progessing to the official point of dating, made them quite close. Webber invited Jaroch to join her on a vacation to Bersallis III to watch the firestorms. While there, Webber was taken by Happymaster Dillon from the Happy Universe, who intended to put the mind his Empress into her body. Jaroch was able to rescue her, but the experience made Webber realize that Jaroch was not over Hawkins nor would he be any time soon. She ended their relationship. (So Happy Together [TRK]) This did not prevent her from using her knowledge of and closeness to Jaroch to convince him that Commander Dillon required mental help after learning that Jaroch had been made captain of the Secondprize instead of him after Captain Rydell's retirement. (Aftermath [TRK])
Webber continued to serve as counselor on the Secondprize for several years before leaving to become the host of a children's holovision show on the Associated Worlds Network. When she was not on the Secondprize, Webber maintained a residence on Rigel. (Star Traks 3 [TRK])
