TrelaneTrelane is a fictional character who appears in the episode "The Squire of Gothos". Trelane is a childish and overbearing being who appears to be human, however sensor scans reveal nothing about his physiology. He abducts people to his private castle on Gothos for his amusement. Captain James T. Kirk and members of the Enterprise crew are taken to Gothos and detained by Trelane who simply wants to play games with them. His idea of fun however, turns deadly. It is suggested by some Star Trek fans (and at least one Star Trek Expanded Universe novel) that Trelane is a young member of the Q Continuum, a race of near-omnipotent beings who harass, in various ways, beings much weaker than they are. The theory is non-canon (also known as fanon), and some fans argue against the idea because Trelane required various high tech machines that manipulated matter to create his illusions, whereas the Q have almost unlimited godlike powers to do whatever they desire. Trelane's "parents" also arrive just in time to punish their misbehaving child, and they appear as globs of colorful energy, whereas the Q always seem to appear in human form. The energy globs could be the Q's natural form, but then again, the Q can always appear however they want.
