Commander Axik Tagel

Bajoran woman who serves as chief of operations on board the starship Banshee. ("Resistance is Futile, Part One" [BAN]). After being blown up in combat with the Voran warship Triaxis, Axik was returned to her life with the rest of the Banshee's crew. The shock of dying sent her into sort of a Carpe Diem mode, and quickly fell into a relationship with Banshee captain Jad Vorezze. ("The Dark Fleet, Part Two" [BAN]). Axik and Jad soon had a very intense relationship going, often running romantic holodeck simulations, as well as extreme ones. ("Shatterframe" [BAN]). When the crew became stranded on Fornax III, Axik made it a point to look after Jad after he was injured falling of a cliff and slamming into the runabout Indus. Jad then in turn had to look after Axik when she was bitten by Commander Ben Rachow, who had turned into a vampire due to abnormal radiation coming from the planet. ("Until Dawn" [BAN]). In early 2376 was impregnated by Captain Vorezze. ["Collective" [BAN]). Axik was thrown in the brig when the Deimos Cult took control of the Banshee. During her time with Jad in the brig, the two made "the most of their time" before being freed by Dr. Lang's hamster, Zeke. ("Where Angels Fear to Tread, Part Three Death of Hope" [BAN]). After a severe malfunction of the environmental systems that caused the temperature of the Banshee to jump exponentially, Axik's hormonal level became severely affected. She first became ill, then went on a murderous rampage against the ship's crew. She returned to normal after the ship's temperature was returned to normal. ("Nine Months Too Long" [BAN]). When Q tried to teach Vorezze the responsibilities of parenthood, Axik was reduced to a toddler. She was instrumental, however, in helping Vorezze solve a systems failure problem. ("Q-Tips" [BAN]). Axik went on vacation with the Banshee's crew hiking in the Tanada System, Axik was assaulted by a giant cream cheese croissant while loading the runabout Tiber to flee the planet after the crew was assaulted by a pack of killer donuts. She was freed by Commander Dan Smith, who pulled her from her creamy prison after finding her missing. ("The Ecair Witch Project" [BAN]).
