    My favorite character in all of Star Trek. Just absolute chaos most of the time, but in a few episodes (“Dark Page” and “The Forsaken” to name a few) shows some real depth and serious acting chops on the part of Majel.

    Lwaxana is literally a leader of Betazed who likes to wreak a lot of havoc but is still loving. Chaotically Good, she taught Alexander (and Worf) how to have fun (practically the aunt of Alexander), she was confident enough to split away from her husband who’s gender-fascist culture dictated Lwaxana couldn’t meet her baby, was married and interested in a changeling, had children with many different species. Plus, when she was sick she literally disrupted the Bajoran Festival of Peldar Joi and everyone got really interested in each other. And also got super interested in the captain of her daughter’s starship… God if there is a more Chaotic Good character I don’t know who it would be.

    I’ve already said as much in a comment on the other thread, but Lwaxana is amazing. She’s the only ST character that Barrett got to play that was truly fleshed out, and it shows how amazing an actress she was. I’m so glad to see SNW doing her TOS era characters justice.

    I need to find a list of all Lwaxana episodes and binge them. :D
