Majel Barrett-Roddenberry was an American actress and producer. She was best known for her roles as Nurse Christine Chapel in the original Star Trek series and Lwaxana Troi on Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, as well as for being the voice of most onboard computer interfaces throughout the series. She became the second wife of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry.

But what is Majel when it comes to Star Trek Adventures? She is a Discord bot for use with Star Trek Adventures roleplaying game. This will help resolve dice rolls and some reference sheets. Now, thanks to the miracle that is the Star Trek Adventures Fan Community, super-fan and software engineer John Nguyen, we have a handy tool that gives honor to the Enterprise’s own computer. Now, it serves your game!

“A discord bot is something that’ll help you make do things in your guild easier. It provides various functions ranging from playing music to sending memes. It can also help you in administrating your discord guild when you’re away.”

We have made it easy for you to add Majel to your Discord server. All you need to do is follow the directions below. First, add the Majel bot. Second, start playing with the command list. I was one of the beta-testers for John’s creation and, I must say, it made a universe of difference to my players. Now, we play STA from all over the world as easy as text messaging using Majel, a great dice roller that is transparent and remarkably accessible.

“Majel does a really good job of making rolls easier to understand, both when making them and interpreting them,” one of my players said. Another commented, “Yeah, it’s probably the best bot I’ve seen on Discord.”

Enjoy this great resource!
