Who DOESN'T love Kestra Troi-Riker?!

[starfleettanner]

I totally became amazed and just impressed by her the first instance we met her. The character was portrayed so well and natural, I seriously would consider the actress for a best actor award. She's one that at least deserves a Short Trek in the near future and explore more of her nature and why she is the way she is.

Does she go by Troi-Riker? Maybe it's Troiker? People from Maine would pronounce it "Troika!" (cue T'Pau).

 

[Bad Thoughts]

I was not entirely impressed, perhaps because in my opinion, the dialogue for most of the episode was off. This makes me an outlier, apparently.

I did like the introduction. It reminded me of when we first met René Picard: JL puts his arms up and jokes that his nephew is going to rob him.

I thought she was kind of annoying at first, but significantly improved as the episode went on. I hope we see her again.

 

[Terok Nor]

Definitely what I would imagine the daughter of Riker and Troi would be like. Too bad we didn't get to meet Thaddeus. Hopefully Kestra returns somewhere down the line.

She was a pretty good character but he dialogue wasn’t pretty weird at times. Especially at the start.

 

[Kor]

So she has a hyphenated last name, does she? Spoiler alert!

Seemed almost 'awkward' ... funny how that happens many times when folks first meet.

Especially when young folks with limited life experiences are involved.

Kestra was great, both the character and the actress.

And naming the character Kestra was also clever. Yes, it is a reference to a mediocre TNG episode but Troi naming her daughter after her dead sister makes sense.

 

[rfmcdpei]

I really enjoyed her.

And it's way easier to spell than "Lwaxana."

 

[Reanok]

I liked Kestra and I thought she was an interesting Character. I liked how she made friends with Soji .

 

[Crewman6]

Was not a big fan of her cultural appropriation.

 

[thribs]

Not a fan of the name. Sounds too close to Kestrel.

 

[Awesome Possum]

The actress really managed to sell that she was Riker and Troi's kid. I'd love to see a Short Trek that showed Thaddeus as well.

 

[Doctor Bombay]

Was not a big fan of her cultural appropriation.

What culture? The culture her brother created and that she adored?

You mean that culture?

 

[NCC-73515]

I found some of her facial expressions a little odd, but can't quite say exactly why.
The made-up languages are just weird as well to me

 

[RJDiogenes]

I thought the character and the actress were great. She's potentially someone who could carry Star Trek into the future-- if Star Trek has a future.

Was not a big fan of her cultural appropriation.

Are you serious? Kestra was dressed up as one of the peoples her Brother made up. Which culture is she appropriating exactly?
