Orion slaver

An Orion slaver is an alien individual featured in the Star Trek multimedia franchise. As a race, the Orions were first featured in the original Star Trek television series. The Orions slavers have made appearances in Star Trek: The Animated Series and Star Trek: Enterprise.

An Orion slaver is a green-skinned male who works for the Orion Syndicate. Members of the Orion Syndicate maintained a slavery auction house and processing station on the borderland world known as Verex III. One of their most popular commodities was the sale of "green animal women", courtesans who were particularly known for their unique appetites. In the year 2154, Orion slavers based out of Verex III captured nine crew members from the Enterprise NX-01 and brought them to Verex III where they were to be sold at auction. This included crewman Jeffrey Pierce and Commander T'Pol. Captain Jonathan Archer beamed down to the planet to rescue his missing crew members. Doing so incited a riot within the auction house, but he succeeded in getting his people back aboard the Enterprise. In retaliation, the Orions sent two Interceptors after them to reclaim their stolen "merchandise". The Enterprise crew received aid from an extremely unlikely source - a group of Augments piloting a Klingon Bird-of-Prey. The Augments shot down one of the Interceptors, but the second one managed to evade destruction and made it back to Verex III.
