One of the main characters in the series is Sito Jaxa, who had previously appeared as a cadet in the episode ‘The First Duty.’
This episode revolved around Wesley Crusher’s involvement in a conspiracy to cover up an accident that resulted in the death of a fellow cadet. It also introduced Nicholas Locarno, who was intended to be the helm officer in Voyager but was later replaced by Tom Paris.
Producers have given various explanations for the change in character, with some citing concerns about Locarno’s redeemability after his actions in ‘The First Duty.’ However, there are also suggestions that the decision was made to avoid paying royalties to the character’s creators.
