"They're like animals. Vicious, seductive. They say no Human male can resist them."
-Commodore Mendez - as projected onto the Enterprise by the Talosians (TOS: "The Menagerie, Part II")
Orion slave girls (also known as Orion
animal women) were female Orions who were very popular "commodities"
trafficked through the slavemarkets of the Orion Syndicate. In the 4th
season of Enterprise,the
secret of the Orion slave girls' irresistibility was discovered when
the slave sisters Navaar, D'Nesh, and Maras were presented to Captain
Archer, ostensibly to improve relations between Earth and the Orions.
Their presence became a major distraction to the crew of the Enterprise
due – it turned out – to the powerful pheromones which they
were releasing. It was revealed that Orion females were not enslaved at
all, but rather the enslavers, and the sisters were active agents in a
plot to capture the Enterprise for their Syndicate. (ENT: "Bound")
My Recent Orion adventures.....
Ladies of SciFi Vulkon,
Orlando, May 19, 2007
My friend Angeleila and I
made our debut as Deanna Troi and an Orion slave. What an
amazing experience! We won first place in the costume
contest and were giving bellydance lessons afterwards to Romulans and
Starbuck. Later on at
the Tiki party, I took out my zills and even showed Torri Higginson a
few hip shimmies on the dance floor!
Here we are right after accepting our trophy...
I think those were some envious Romulans eyeing us...they were the
first runners up.
Posing with our winning trophy...the silver kind of blends in with my
costume.
Here
is the winning dance
that put a "spell" on a Klingon!
And I made the batleth myself!
