Dr. Elizabeth Lang

Head scientist on board the USS Banshee. Liz is an extremely attractive woman and that status in part alienates her from the crew and causes her to be given the unwanted attention of other officers. Liz's best friend is her teddy bear hamster, Zeke. ("Resistance is Futile, Part I" [BAN]). Liz is very defensive of Zeke, keeping him safe from Borg drones ("Cube #347's Excellent Adventure, Part II" [BRG]), hormonally imbalanced Bajorans ("Nine Months Too Long" [BAN]) and evil temple spirits. ("The Petzorcist" [BAN]). Liz joined the Banshee's crew when the USS Rameses crashed in 2374. It was her idea to use a quantum torpedo to destroy the Dominion Spider Walker that threatened the landbound Rameses. ("Tolkien III" [REJ]). Liz was among the Banshee crewmembers who were killed in combat with the Voran warship Triaxis but later brought back to life when the afterlife refused to let them in. ("The Dark Fleet, Part II" [BAN]). Liz found herself bored one night on the Banshee and decided to call the Subspace Party Line. There, she met a "really thoughtful guy" who turned out to be Warlord Sorinak of the Voran Imperium. Liz enlisted Peter Stefanski to fend of the horny Voran. ("Cupid's Arrow" [BAN]) Liz later delivered supplies to a Section 31 base aboard the shuttlecraft Sullivan. The Sullivan was destroyed when it accidentally nicked a warp nacelle against a stray meteor and Liz and Vince were forced to beam onto the barren planet Veejo IX. There, to ward off death, Liz and Vince had to have sex in order to survive. They were later rescued by the Banshee after being tipped off by the USS Secondprize. ("Basic Survival Instinct" [BAN]). When Warlord Sorinak was aboard the Banshee in late 2375 to seek the assistance of the Federation against Species 8472, Liz was abducted after the war was revealed to be a hoax. ("The Lesser of Two Evils" [BAN]) Liz was held prisoner on board the Sivax until Jevon, the captain of the ship, activated the autodestruct system in protest to Sorinak's war against the Federation. He allowed Liz to escape, though the Sivax was destroyed. ("Dark Horizon" [BAN]). When the Deimos Cult took over the Banshee in 2376, Liz managed to avoid being shuffled off to the escape pods by hiding under the bar with Commander David Riley and head waiter Siruk. Her hamster, Zeke, was responsible for freeing Captain Vorezze and Commander Tagel from the ship's brig and reclaiming the ship. ("Where Angels Fear to Tread, Part Three" [BAN]). Liz became the subject of torment by Salome, a demon from Menda III that possessed Zeke. After counseling the possessed hamster failed, Commander Dan Smith performed an exorcism on him.("The Petzorcist" [BAN]).
