"Security member to Transporter Room One for a landing party."

Spock's voice rings out through the commsystem and, deep in the bowels of the Enterprise, machinery clanks to life. Slice of DNA here, a skin graft there, a lock of slightly curly blonde hair there, blue eyes, a hunky chest, muscles to die for, rudimentary speech ("Yes, Captain," "Aye", "Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!"). A phaser rifle slung over his shoulder. Military precision in his bearing.

A red shirt is added: canon fodder is born. He walks smartly to the transporter room, not even enough sentience to wonder how it will happen this time...
