Neelix

Neelix was a Talaxian male born on Rinax in the Delta Quadrant. Following the slaughter of his entire family by the Haakonians in 2356, Neelix became a trader until a fortunate encounter with the USS Voyager in 2371, which saw him become guide, cook and morale officer, and "ambassador" for the Federation starship. Neelix remained aboard until 2377 (2378), where he joined with a group of Talaxians thousands of light-years away from Talax. (VOY episodes: "Caretaker", "Parallax", "Jetrel", and "Homestead").
